PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The GARDE150D is a wine cabinet designed especially for long term maturation and can be set to one temperature throughout or be used as a multi-temperature cabinet. If you turn off the fans the fridge can be used for partial service as the temperatures will increase up the cabinet, the one temperature zone can be set between 5-20°C. This polyvalent technology works as per the illustration below.
This high capacity, freestanding unit offers the avid collector the ideal conditions to house a large and varied collection at an economical price.
The solid door offers complete darkness for your wine range while the anti-vibration technology ensures the sediment remains settled. The charcoal filter ensures the wine is protected from any bad odours. The unit benefits from two wheels at the back to move your wine cabinet into place.
The climate classification allows the wine cabinet to operate at a range of ambient temperatures from 0-32°C offering the ability to place the cabinet in a cooler or hotter room on the premises like a cellar, garage or hotter or cooler room.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION
This wine fridge is perfect for those with a sizeable collection intended for long-term aging but can also be used as a service fridge if fans turned off. It easily accommodates large bottles, and its solid door provides full UV protection. Equipped with a Winter System, it offers versatile placement options. Additionally, it operates quietly and is compatible with the Vinotag app. Considering all its features, the energy consumption is quite reasonable too.
The only minor drawback is the lack of a lock, but overall, this is an exceptional, quiet and energy efficient cabinet for its price range.
