I'm looking at an Avintage undercounter wine fridge. Avintage are a French company who have been producing wine cabinets since the late 1990s, apparently. They only make wine fridges. I've never heard from them, but am considering them because their fridge meets all my required specs, is just within budget and on a shorter lead time than stuff coming out of china. Has anyone got any experience with this company? If not, anywhere you know I could get unbiased reviews?

In my search for an affordable dual zone 60cm wide undercounter black wine chiller, I've come across a Cavin Polar Collection 51. This is about 30% cheaper than the equivalent Siemens or Bosch (although it's actually a bit smaller than 60cm, being 55cm wide, so not properly equivalent) and appears to have good reviews. I emphasise the appearance of good reviews, because the only sites that provide reviews from actual buyers for this wine fridge just have one review, so hardly enough to give me any confidence. E.g.: https://www.winestoragecompany.co.uk/product/free-standing-wine-cooler-polar-collection-51-7450 It meets my requirements of not being too noisy (39dB) and holds 37 bottles which is probably just about enough. I would prefer a 60cm wide fridge as I have space for that and it might look odd to have a couple of cm either side, but it's on a somewhat hidden side of my kitchen island, so probably won't be that noticeable and maybe that extra air gap will prolong the life of the fridge. Any other recommendations in the sub £600 price point?
