Beer Fridge Review: DBC514BLS Danby Built-In Beverage Center

Review of the Danby DBC514BLS Danby 5.3 Cu. Ft. Built-In Beverage Center

I read all the reviews and do not understand why people seem to think this unit is noisy -- believe me, it's NOT.

I'm very happy with the purchase, delivery, installation, design and functionality. This is a beautiful unit for someone who wants white wine / blush storage on the bottom with the option of storing beer, water and soda on top (buy a dual zone wine fridge if you want / need red wine storage).

By moving the bottom shelf up one notch, you can store up to 11 bottles of wine and still have tons of room for other beverages. The unit holds steady between 39 & 41 degrees with very little noticeable noise. I installed it as a built-in beverage fridge for a wet bar in a newly finished basement and couldn't be happier.

The glass shelves are what finally sold me on this Danby unit. I have friends with built-in fridges and wire racks that not only look cheesy, but you can see the wire racks bend under the weight of a half case of beer (bottles or cans). Spend the money and don't get a cheap model -- you'll eventually regret it if you do.

Best Uses: Game Room, Home Bar

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
