Very very disappointing January 3, 2009

We received this as a Christmas gift 2008 from very good friends. We have used it 4 times and it has already stopped working. The first time was Christmas evening and I immediately noticed how noisy it was, like having the stove exhaust fan on high. But it appeared to work well as we were just getting red wine down to the appropriate temp. Next we tried it on champagne that came out of the fridge. It took 35 minutes to say "CHEERS" and when we went to drink it the champagne wasn't even as cold as it was when it went in. Tonight we tried to chill a bottle of white burgandy and none of the buttons or readings worked, just the noise and a blue light. A refrigerator works as quickly and better and without all the noise. I would not recommend this to anyone, don't waste your time or money! A chiller that wraps around the bottle, stores in the freezer and costs $10 is 10 times more effective.
Listen to all the 1-star ratings November 20, 2008

First, you must listen to all those reviews that have a 1-star rating. This product really doesn't work. I have a very hard time reconciling those reviews with high star ratings based on my experience, which mirrors that of those who say this doesn't cool. Let's think about this - you enter a bottle into a metal-rimmed bucked which does not adjust it's size. Thus, the bucket must be large enough to accomodate all sorts of bottles and is always larger than your specific wine bottle. There is never a 'fit' - only about 10% of the glass of the wine bottle is actually touching something that is cool. How would you expect this mechanism to work?! It can take 1-2 hrs for the display to say it's ready, but as everyone says, you don't notice a difference in the temperature of the wine. It does effectively cool one small portion or vertical strip of the glass bottle itself, however.
Furthermore, how can anyone rate this product with 4 stars when they are using it to cool (or warm???) wine that is stored at 55 degrees. Do you really think that this machine has the accuracy to take wine up or down a few degrees with accuracy based on the mechanism I've stated and the consistent 1-star reviews?
And it is annoyingly loud.
 Great Product for the money September 9, 2008

The electronic wine library gets each varietal to its perfect serving temperature with ease. If you have 15-20 minutes before you want to drink then this unit works great.
 Loud, slow, and not terribly effective at what you bought it for June 24, 2008

Other than that, what's there to complain about?
The new version of the product has a plastic sleeve that gives a more accurate temperature reading but why care when it takes all day to chill the bottle of white? It is unbelievably noisy when operating and couldn't possibly be used any place you want to have a conversation. If you put your white wine in the refrigerator to bring it close to serving temp and then put it in the chiller it might work to your advantage (the unit won't be on very long) but this thing is not worth whatever you're going to pay for it. BTW, there's now a 2-bottle version. It doesn't work any better.
