    Hello there BA's,

    Was hoping for a little feedback on this wine fridge that is available at Walmart for a decent price.

    http://www.walmart.com/ip/Igloo-Beverage-Wine-Center-Black/31136427

    • Dimensions: 21"W x 20"D x 32"H
    With the dimensions they are giving I was thinking I should be able to have two shelves to store my 750ml's up right. Most likely 4 or 5 wide by the same deep.

    Anyone possibly use the current fridge for cellaring or have any input on it?

    Appreciate the help/comments!

    Cheers!

    I have a 9 bottle wine cooler that I bought from target for really cheap. I took out the racks and can usually fit anywhere between 9 to 12 (or possibly more) bottles. The lowest it goes to is 54 so I keep it at 55. The glass door is tinted and I keep it underneath my computer desk so the light stays out pretty well. I've only had it for maybe 4 or 5 months so I haven't had anything that was well aged in there yet, but everything I have had out of it tasted fine to me. My only regret is not saving money to buy a larger one haha.
