Which wine cooling unit you use and how happy are you with it?

I’m looking to purchase a split cooling unit that covers 1500 Cubic feet. Which one do you have and how happy are you with it. Ideally, I’m looking for a robust one that won’t break on me when needed the most.

I got a CellarPro split 3000S cooling unit. Even in the Bay Area, I had difficulty getting someone who would install the unit. I ended up going with an installer recommended by the manufacturer, but the installer couldn’t fill out the paperwork/measurements they needed to activate the warranty. So in short, I have a working cooling unit but they won’t honor the warranty and I’m not sure what I’m going to do for ongoing servicing in the future.

Some people here have recommended regular (non-wine cellar) split wall cooling units for ease of servicing. That may be the best way forward, but unfortunately my space is small and I didn’t have space for those types of units without losing a lot of capacity. Should have maybe done that anyway… it would have been less stressful.

You know they only break down when you need them the most.

Very happy with CellarPro but not a split system so perhaps irrelevant.
