Schmecke Wine Refrigerator

No, this model is designed specifically for freestanding use. It requires proper ventilation around the sides and back to function correctly, so it should not be enclosed in cabinetry.

The refrigerator features two independent cooling zones that allow you to set different temperatures simultaneously. The upper zone ranges from 54°F to 64°F, ideal for reds, while the lower zone ranges from 41°F to 57°F, perfect for chilling whites and sparkling wines.

The capacity is rated for 44 standard 750ml Bordeaux-style bottles. If you plan to store larger bottles, such as Champagne or wider Pinot Noir bottles, you may need to remove one of the chrome shelves, which will reduce the total bottle count.

Yes, the door is constructed with tempered, smoked glass that includes anti-UV protection. This helps shield your wine from harmful light exposure that can degrade the quality of the wine over time.

While compressor-based cooling is generally more efficient and powerful than thermoelectric cooling, it does produce some operational sound. It is comparable to a standard kitchen refrigerator, making it suitable for living rooms, dining areas, or home bars.

Yes, the chrome shelves are removable. This gives you the flexibility to customize the interior layout to accommodate different bottle shapes and sizes.
