Cookology CBC98BK Under-Counter Fridge, 98 Litre Beer, Wine and Drinks Fridge with Adjustable Temperature Control, LED Light, Suitable for Cans and Bottles, Energy Efficient - in Black

The family like a selection of cold drinks: water, fruit juices, softs drinks, wine etc. We found this was taking a lot of unnecessary fridge space to maintain a selection for different ages and tastes. We’d talked about getting a drinks fridge but couldn’t work out how to integrate a second fridge into our kitchen, that is until we found this product. Much more narrow than your average under counter appliance, but still lots of storage and useful space. It gave us the idea to replace a couple of storage baskets in our free standing kitchen island with this fridge. Dimensionally it was slightly narrower but the depth was perfect, height was also almost spot on, using the feet adjustment was enough to manage any gap/levelling. The island already had power for a microwave on the opposite side, so it didn’t take much to connect the fridge via it’s supplied and fitted UK plug. The fridge is very quiet, it has an internal light you can adjust to leave on to give a nice glow at night - making it more of a feature in your kitchen, storage is great only a very small area of the fridge is taken up by the compressor at the bottom, all other shelves are full depth. We now store opened bottles in main fridge and unopened wine, bottled water, soft drinks (cans) in this fridge, creating more storage in our main fridge for food, something we consciously wanted to do during lockdown. Really nice item, note it has no handle on the door, we though this might be an issue, but it’s been perfectly fine, the weight of the drinks also stops it moving around once full. It did have a slight dent in transit, but was only minor at the back of the unit and out of sight - as it was at the height of lockdown we decided to keep it anyway - but be sure to check yours over in case you need to get a replacement.

A very good and well priced option for my garage. Looks good, works well and the noise level is fine, particularly for an external room. There is plenty of space for several dozens bottles and cans, and the internal shelves are adjustable. The only sour note was that the delivery time was more than 2 weeks (i.e. over 10 days late due to Christmas rush) which I could have accepted more easily had they been upfront about the actual lead time (at the time of order the delivery was slated for Dec 18-21, and only after I had purchased the fridge was I informed that I won't be getting it until after Christmas - it eventually arrived Jan 2nd). So massive thumbs down to the supplier, The Wright Buy, compounded by very poor customer service - in the several emails I exchanged with them, it was clear that they didn't really give a monkeys about when I would get the fridge and they put everything on the courier company. The courier company, on the other hand, were extremely helpful and apologetic, and did what they could to expedite for me. But all that aside, the product itself is good.

Great drink chiller. Very quiet, loads of room and shelves. Looks great in the kitchen.

Good for keeping my wine chilled but the door is not reversible as stated. They clearly just ignore reviews and don’t attempt to change the details.

When looking for this fridge we knew what we wanted to go in it, but many just showed smaller shorter tins. I was worried from write ups on other cheaper brands that the shelves would not be strong enough to support all the bottles, as they had reported had suffered fails and collapsed. In the end we plumped for this model, it was dearer than others and I just had my fingers crossed in the vain hope that would correlate into better quality and handle the workload we had in mind. It arrived very swiftly in excellent packing and was a perfect fit for the space. Ok here is the bit I got a bit worried about. The temp dial ranges from 0-7. Now to MY mind the lower the no. the lower the temp, so I had it at at 3-4, but after 6 hours it was 10degrees, far too hot. Went down to 0 level left it over night, still 10degrees...Hmmm so I realised this must be the opposite way to my reasoning or it was broken. Sure enough, move the number up to 7 and its going down to 2.8 degrees. So its fine, phew! 6.5 gives me around 3.6-4degs and then we filled it with the bottles, wondering if it could take them. Well it did, absolutley fine, the quality is fine for this and the shelves were perfectly strong enough and I had to take two out as I had more than I needed. We've had it running a couple of weeks now and its been great to have the drinks that used to reside in the fridge are now all nice and chilled and a better temperature. So all good!

Purchased last week, very nice fridge modern look. Door does not change sides and it opens from the right. I had to level the fridge with the feet below which was easy. I love the key which is basically a Allen key, it stops my wife drinking my wine. She hasn’t worked out yet that she can use an Allen key to open the fridge...pure bliss. It’s quiet and the light can be turned off on the switch inside. The temperature dial is also inside by the light which is brilliant, my husky fridge that died RIP, I had to pull it out and turn down from behind very annoying. I certainly give it a 9/10, the door not being able to move was the only bug bear

Having moved from a home with a large beautifully cool larder to a centrally heated smaller property I needed a place to store fruit and vegetables at the correct temperature . With not enough space or money for a top of the range American style fridge this chiller is perfect, fruit and veg. are kept at an ideal temperature and there is enough room too for a shelf of bottles of beer & cider. Everything is at the correct temperature, the light ensures I don't lose small things at the back, the noise is minimal, my smart meter shows almost no electricity usage increase and we are all very pleased.

Excellent looks great does the job
