re: Wine fridge/cooler suggestions

The consensus on most wine specific boards is that you should save your money and get a single zone cooler. Reds will be just fine down to around 58 degrees and any whites you will be chilling for daily enjoyment will also be just fine.
In terms of brands / models there are TONS. The general belief is that most are overpriced for what you get. Wine coolers are marketed toward wine drinkers who stereo-typically are more affluent people.
If you should really start with a budget and a desired number of bottles you wish to store. Keep in mind that only less than 5% of wines actually improve with age after about the 5yr mark. I just recently purchased a 32 bottle KoolFront product off of Amazon. Its only been a few weeks but so far so good.

Thanks for your input. 32 bottles is about the size I was thinking.
Getting a single zone makes sense because it will basically only be reds and some champagne being stored.
I will check out the KoolFront brand.
