PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The ECS81.2Z is a freestanding dual zone wine fridge that requires 2-3 inches of ventilation space on the sides and rear to effectively cool the compressor. Both temperature zones can be programmed between 5 and 20°C, making it ideal for storing both red and white wines. The upper zone should be set as the cooler zone when operating at different temperatures.

The ECS81.2Z can hold up to 75 Bordeaux bottles, with 33 in the lower section and 42 in the top section. The beech semi-sliding shelves provide support for the bottles and can be easily slid in and out for convenient access. Additionally, the bottom of the wine cooler offers space for stacked bottles, Champagne or magnums.

This wine fridge is fan-assisted, emitting an operating noise of 37dB - making it a discreet and non-intrusive addition to any setting. The ECS81.2Z is highly efficient, using minimal energy to maintain the perfect temperature for your wines year-round. With lock and key, wines remain safe behind lock and key and UV protected glass.

**The ECS81.2Z is supplied with an EU plug and adaptor.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION

The ECS81.2Z from La Sommeliere is one of our best sellers around £1000 due to a few key features that aren't standard in other similarly priced units including a lock and key and two dual zones that are fairly evenly matched in size and you can decide which is for whites or reds as both sections can be independently set.
