Is there a discount / cash back at Langton’s?

I have ordered a LeCavist 168 from Appliances Online. Delivery in May.

At least ALDI gave me a full refund, and I have a friend who will likely buy my Vintec when the new fridge arrives.

Anyone have tips on how to slightly reduce humidity in a wine fridge?

I have a 110 bottle vintec that runs c80-85% ave humidity, resulting in labels wrinkling. By contrast I have a transtherm that consistently runs at an average of 65%

The vintec wasn’t quite level causing condensation to pool so have sorted that but hasn’t helped. Any tips welcome

I’m not answering your question but I have 2 of these and they haven’t missed a beat. Currently $400 ea and will fit 35 bottles.

Same here - I have the Hi-Sense Dual Zone which does the job well. I picked it up at JB HiFi when they had a special on, and I had $150 voucher, so a bargain at $450

I had never heard of hisense fridges until this point. And also read that a cheap fridge could breakdown and cook your wines , I was a bit hesitant but I went ahead. Who knows

Anyone converted a (properly built non Bunnings) shed into a temp controlled wine storage?

Also same question for shipping container...

Yes. A friend has done this. Insulated the inside with a thick layer of something or other and stuck in a box AC.

 

[Quickstatus]

Delivery in May.

And?

stuck in a box AC.

How stable is the temp?

I guess you'd call this a nouveau vintage staircase ...

Any recommendations for a wine fridge, not a wine drinker that consumes copious amounts but live in the warmer parts of QLD. So I think I should invest in one; especially given that i just bought a dozen over QF promo

Any good fridge that will sit outdoors under a mezzanine (away from direct light) but will get warm under it. Looking at maybe 12, 18 or 24 but no more than 24. Space conscious if possible.

I can see that Devanti is popular? Any thoughts?

Thank you.

If youre budget conscious i would recommend the hisense 30bottle one.
On sale.you van get them as cheap as $360

Ive got one, looks pretty, 30btl,
Whether it lasts as long as a $2000 i have no idea
