I bought the unit on 11/28/2008. Looks nice, compact & dual zone. Perfect for on top of the wet bar counter. Worked fine, no issues until 01/2010. For about two weeks it was having problems holding the temperature variation in the dual zones.. then evened the temperatures to the same degree in both zones, then no power when plugged in. I would not buy this unit. I should have known with a 90 day warranty the manufacturer knew the technology was not stable enough to risk providing a minimum of 12 month warranty period.
We had this for almost 2 years before it started clicking and went out. Called the company and were told that it would be 35.00 plus shipping for a new circuit board. After reading reviews on the item we decided it was not worth it. We too experienced it having a mind of its own when it came to setting the temperature. We almost got our money's worth.
After almost 24 months it died on me with no warning at all. I had it sitting under my desk where it got plenty of ventilation and was out of the sun. If I plug it in it makes a clicking noise in the back and no lights come on, good thing my city electronic waste recycling is free this month. It looks very nice and kept my wine cool while it worked, but now I need to replace it. I agree with other reviewers that the shelf spacing isn't large enough for some of the bigger wine bottles out there, and it really isn't very deep either. Next time I will purchase a different brand that has a bit more space inside and is built with better parts.

I liked the size and the fact that it was very quiet. When I first got it (winter time) it kept the temperature where I set it at 55 degrees. It did seem that the it had a hard time keeping the setting when the weather got hot. I had it for almost 20 months and it died. The fan no longer spins and it is clicking as others have stated. Good while it lasted but didn't last long enough.
I bought the Vinotemp at Pricesmart and was in love with it how it fit into my stainless steel themed kitchen. I was able to keep my red wine chilled correctly as here in the Caribbean most restaurants would serve you red wine at Caribbean room temperature.UGH! So I was happy for the past 11 months with my purchase until this past Saturday when I woke up to find the light off on my Vinotemp and a clicking noise coming from the back. I went into my office and called Vinotemp and was told to call back on Monday. So when I called on Monday and they told me I needed a new control board which would cost me $35 plus shipping. So while I wait for a quote on the shipping cost to me in the Caribbean I decided to do some research on the product and found all these reviews saying the same thing about it dying in less than a year and how they don't stand behind their product. So now I am shocked and horrified and wish I could find my Pricesmart bill and see if they had a one year warranty like Costco has in the USA as one reviewer said. Oh well as the old Confucious saying goes..."Cheap thing no good, Good thing no cheap!"

I owned this unit for about 10 months and suddenly started making clicking sounds and no cooling. As others have stated this is a common problem and will not last longer than a year. If you only need a cooler for less than a year go ahead and buy it!
