PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The PCLP160 is a wine cabinet designed especially for ageing but with the ability to turn off the fans and offer partial service, the one temperature zone can be set between 5-20°C.

The only minor drawbacks are the lack of a lock, non-reversible door, and slightly higher-than-average power consumption. Despite these, it remains a fantastic investment.
