18 Bottle Wine Cellar Reviews

WHY HAVE AN 18 BOTTLE WINE CELLAR?

Collecting and storing wines is not as simple as it sounds. It’s not just a matter of having a cupboard or cabinet where you can file and forget them until they are needed for a party or an event. Temperature consistency is key, as well as being protected from UV light and unnecessary vibrations. And while not everyone can afford wine cellars under the ground, especially for large collections of wines, avid collectors can opt to get thermoelectric 18 bottle wine cellars instead.

ARE ALL 18 BOTTLE WINE CELLARS THERMOELECTRIC?

Thermoelectric 18 bottle wine fridge units use a specialized cooling system with virtually no moving parts and a very quiet sound profile. This makes them ideal for locations with limited space. They have an average temperature range depending on the brand and model, and have different capacities. Large capacity units however, like an 18 bottle wine cooler, come in either single zone, or dual zone variants.  There are even a few on the market that use compressor cooling for more stable temperature control.

SINGLE ZONE 18 BOTTLE WINE COOLERS

Single zone coolers, like the Ivation IV-FWCT181B 18 Bottle Thermoelectric Single Zone Wine Cooler, have a much simpler and straightforward design. You set the temperature, store your wine, and leave it alone to do its job of keeping your wines at their best. The IV-FWCT181B model can then be used to store a large amount of one or a few types of variants of wines that share the same ideal temperature range.

ARE THERE DUAL ZONE 18 BOTTLE WINE FRIDGES?

Dual zone coolers, like the NutriChef PKDSWC18 Bottle Stainless Steel Dual Zone Thermoelectric Wine Cooler and Ivation IV-FWCT181DB 18 Bottle Dual Zone Thermoelectric Wine Cellar, are wine fridge 18 bottle units that have a divided storage area, with each section having different temperatures. This is perfect for wine collectors who like both red and white wines ready to go for parties and events. This is because white wines are better stored at lower temperatures to protect it from oxidation, and red wines don’t get the same benefits from the temperatures ideal for white wines.
