300mm wine coolers or 30cm wine fridges are popular due to their narrow width and ability to seamlessly fit in to kitchens as all models are built in wine fridges. The width of these wine fridges is actually around 295mm which allows them to be positioned under counter into a standard 300mm wide gap. This leaves 2.5mm each side of the unit for sufficient ventilation and room for the door to swing open. Most models can also be used as drink or beer fridges too.
A 30cm wine cooler or drinks fridge may be the perfect option for you. By choosing a unit of such a compact size, you will be able to provide your collection with an idyllic storage environment without entirely altering the look of your kitchen or living space.
Whilst wine refrigerators of 30cm or 300mm width are renowned for their slimline appearance, they are actually available as both single zone and dual zone units, with the 30cm dual zone wine coolers becoming incredibly popular.
Single zone wine units ensure that every single bottle is kept at the same temperature, whilst dual zone units allow you to store various types of wines at their optimal temperatures.
Despite their appearance they are still packed with innovative features. These features not only work to make your life easier, but they also help to ensure your wine is constantly protected from the sorts of environmental threats that are known to cause oxidization and flavour degradation.
These features include:
1. Charcoal filters (to eliminate unwanted odours)
2. Anti-UV treated glass door (to protect your wine against sunlight overexposure)
3. LED lighting (to elegantly illuminate your wine collection)
4. Door alarms (to alert you of any fluctuations in humidity or temperature)
To understand if a 30cm wine cooler is right for you, there are several factors you will need to consider. You will need to think about the size of your wine collection, what kinds of features you require and how much disposable space you have to work with.
If you are someone who simply likes to keep 10-20 of your favourite bottles to hand or you are just starting out in the world of wine collecting, a 300mm wine fridge may be a great choice for you.On the other hand, if you are someone with a particularly extensive collection of wine, a 300mm wine refrigerator may not provide you with the necessary amount of space.
If you are looking for a wine cooler with an anti-UV treated glass door and a single or dual zone capability, a 300mm wine fridge should be able to meet your requirements. However, if you are looking for a wine chiller with multiple cooling zones (more than 2) and precise humidity controls, you may need to consider choosing a larger model.
In terms of space, you will need to ensure you have enough disposable room in your home for the 300mm wine cooler to be installed. Luckily, these units are extremely narrow and relatively small in comparison to other wine coolers which makes them an ideal choice for most. These fridges are also perfect for storing and cooling drinks like beer, soda and spirits.
