CELLA WBV36B-TO - Beverage Centre - 22 Bottles / 42 Cans - WBV36B-TO

The CELLA WBV36B-TO is the beverage centre we recommend for designer undercounter kitchens that need wine and drinks in one 60cm slot: 22 bottles on telescopic beech shelves plus 42 cans on a dedicated glass shelf, behind a handleless, triple-glazed black glass door with Push2Open technology. Two independently controlled zones run 2-14°C in the upper zone and 5-20°C in the lower, so lager and mixers sit properly cold while fine wine rests at cellar or service temperature below. Designed specifically for seamless installation, it features zero-clearance hinges, adjustable feet for worktops from 82 to 89cm, and a supplied fixing bracket for secure positioning.

The WBV36B-TO is also engineered with wine preservation and user convenience in mind. An upgraded TFT touch-screen display provides intuitive control over temperature, lighting and brightness, while built-in visual and audible alarms monitor temperature and door status. Embraco inverter compressor technology reduces vibration and operating noise to a low hum of 38 dB while improving energy efficiency, with the appliance achieving an F energy rating and using just 104kWh per year. Inside, a replaceable activated charcoal filter helps eliminate unwanted odours, while anti-vibration measures provide a stable environment for wine. Integrated LED strip lighting can be customised with warm white or RGB colours and four brightness levels, adding a premium finishing touch. With 55-85% automatic humidity management, reversible door, soft-close functionality and a 3-year parts and labour warranty, the CELLA WBV36B-TO delivers a sophisticated, quiet and highly practical wine-storage solution for contemporary kitchens.

The CELLA range is viewable at our showroom in London - as a UK stockist and distributor you are assured of the latest CELLA models via CoolerSomm.

WHO IS THE WBV36B-TO BEST FOR?

• The home bar in one appliance. Beer, cans and mixers up top at 2°C, fine wine below, one 60cm unit instead of two. Compare more wine and beer fridges if you need bigger drinks capacity.
• Kitchen renovations and island units. Front plinth ventilation, zero-clearance hinges and a supplied fixing bracket make it genuinely island-safe, with no rear air gap required. See all 600mm built-in wine coolers and undercounter wine fridges.
• Minimalist, handleless kitchens. Push2Open door and a flush black glass front keep the lines clean, with no protruding handle to break up a run of cabinetry.
• Reds and whites (and fizz) together. The 2°C upper zone chills sparkling properly while the lower zone serves or stores still wine. Browse more dual zone wine coolers and champagne fridges.
• Entertaining and hosting. 42 cans plus 22 bottles covers a dinner party or Christmas overflow without raiding the food fridge.

INSTALLATION

The CELLA WBV36B-TO is a versatile wine cooler designed for both short- and long-term wine storage, combining practical functionality with a sleek, installation-friendly design. It features smooth-gliding telescopic shelves for easy access to bottles, while the zero-clearance hinges ensure the door can open without catching on adjacent cabinetry or panels. This is particularly important when achieving a clean, flush-fitting undercounter installation and is a feature often overlooked on competing models. The WBV36B-TO can also be paired with a matching CELLA wine or beer cooler, including the W34B-TO dual zone wine fridge and BV34B-TO drinks fridge, for a coordinated kitchen setup.

Specifically engineered for undercounter installation, the cooler features adjustable feet that allow the overall height to be set up to 890mm, making it suitable for a range of kitchen configurations. A dedicated adjustment tool is supplied, allowing the front feet to be easily adjusted even after the appliance has been positioned within the cabinetry. For additional safety and stability, a fixing bracket is supplied and must be used to secure the cooler in place and prevent it from tipping forward. Note that plinth ventilation is essential: the unit breathes through its base, which is exactly what allows it to be built into islands and cabinetry runs with no rear air gap. Together, these thoughtful installation features make the WBV36B-TO an excellent choice for designer kitchens where both aesthetics and practical installation are equally important.

FEATURES AND SECURITY

The CELLA WBV36B-TO wine & beverage cooler is designed for optimal wine storage, featuring a replaceable charcoal filter that absorbs unwanted odours through an activated charcoal membrane, keeping your wine collection fresh and clean.

It also includes advanced anti-vibration technology. While most wine fridges rely solely on rubber mounts, the WBV36B-TO uses a digitally controlled Embraco inverter compressor that adjusts speed based on demand and ambient conditions. This reduces vibrations, minimises noise, and improves energy efficiency, ensuring a quiet, stable environment for your wine and beverages.

LATEST IN WINE FRIDGE TECHNOLOGY

The latest CELLA storage units feature an upgraded TFT touchscreen display, providing intuitive control over the cooler’s key functions. From the display, you can easily adjust the temperature, lighting colour and lighting mode, with a choice of dynamic white or multicoloured RGB lighting. The integrated LED lighting can also be adjusted across four brightness levels, allowing you to create the perfect ambience while showcasing your wine collection.

For added peace of mind, all CELLA storage units are equipped with built-in monitoring and alarm systems designed to help maintain ideal storage and serving conditions. Multiple sensors continuously monitor important factors, including internal temperature and door status, helping to identify any potential issues. If an abnormal temperature or an open door is detected, the cooler provides both visual and audible alerts. These alarms can be easily acknowledged or deactivated directly through the TFT touchscreen control panel, keeping operation simple and convenient.

WINE & BEVERAGES

The WBV36B-TO combines a stainless-steel interior with sleek black shelf fronts, creating a sophisticated, high-end finish that complements modern kitchen designs. It has also been carefully engineered with wine storage in mind, featuring a replaceable activated charcoal filter positioned on the rear wall of the cabinet. The filter helps absorb unwanted odours through its activated charcoal membrane, helping to maintain a clean, neutral environment inside the cooler and protecting the overall storage conditions for your wine collection.

To further support long-term wine storage, the WBV36B-TO incorporates advanced anti-vibration technology. Compressor vibrations can potentially disturb wine during cooling, so CELLA has gone beyond conventional rubber mounting systems by using a digitally controlled inverter compressor. The compressor automatically adjusts its speed according to cooling demand and ambient conditions, helping to minimise vibration and reduce operating noise. This intelligent technology also contributes to improved energy efficiency, delivering quieter and more economical operation than many comparable wine coolers in its price range. The result is a stable, quiet and carefully controlled environment designed to help preserve your wine collection.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION

This CELLA model provides an integrated solution for wine and beverage storage. It features a dual-zone that maintains the correct temperature for water, beer and cans and also a professional storage section for maturing and keeping wines at the ideal temperature either for long term storage or service. The top zone can go as low as two degrees which is ideal for those who enjoy super cold beverages.

The zero-clearance hinges allow for a sleek, integrated style within a modern designer kitchen, and the Push2Open door maintains its clean lines. This beverage centre is ideal for those who like their beers well chilled and have fine wine to mature or serve all within an undercounter solution.

What is the capacity of the CELLA WBV36B-TO?

This wine & beverage combination can hold up to 22 Bordeaux/Burgundy style bottles on wooden shelves and 42 cans (330ml) on 1 glass shelf, which is fixed.

The best way to optimise space in your wine fridge is to stack the same bottle type (Bordeaux or Burgundy or Alsace for example) on the same shelves.

Can the WBV36B-TO be used in a garage or outbuilding?

We don't recommend it. The WBV36B-TO is rated for ambient temperatures of 16-43°C and has no heating function, so an unheated garage in winter will take it outside its operating range. For garages, sheds and utility rooms, choose a model with a winter system from our garage wine fridges collection instead.

Can I pay for this wine fridge in instalments?

You can pay by instalments via PayPal who allow you to pay over 6, 12, 24 or up to 36 months and have a 4 month, 0% interest instalment plan for US and UK customers. If you wish to pay by instalments, choose PayPal at check out. You can also pay in full with a debit card, Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Google Pay or PayPal.

Does the CELLA WBV36B-TO come with a manufacturer warranty?

Yes, there is a three year call out, service, repair, replacement, parts and labour warranty on this wine cooler as standard. You can upgrade to four or five years by selecting the warranty extension type you would like before check out.

What is the energy rating of this wine cooler?

The CELLA WBV36B-TO carries an F energy rating on the current (post-March 2021) scale, consuming just 104 kWh per year, which is among the more efficient compressor wine coolers in its class thanks to its inverter compressor. If an F sounds low, note that the 2021 relabelling moved every appliance down the scale: see our blog post on energy rating changes for wine coolers for how the old and new scales compare.

How do I install this wine cooler?

The CELLA WBV36B-TO is a front venting wine and beer fridge which means it can be used as either a freestanding wine fridge or have carpentry around its sides and fit neatly into your kitchen design, including kitchen islands, since it needs no rear air gap. Plinth ventilation at the base is essential, and the supplied fixing bracket must be used. Browse more undercounter wine fridges for alternative configurations.
