But aside from being particular about the manufacturer's claims, is there any problem with the variation? I don't know how long you want to keep the wines but 59F doesn't seem like a problem for the wines?

Rahsaan, I think it also has to do with the racking and how full the cellar is. If you've got wire racking and plenty of empty space, it's easier for the cooler air to fall to the bottom. If it's wood racking and chock full, the air exiting the cooler may have nowhere to go.Rahsaan wrote:It's also interesting to hear that so many folks have units where it is cooler on the bottom. I guess that makes sense because heat rises, but my Avanti must have the cooler/fan on the top, because the top shelves are cooler than the bottom.
