Studio 1200 Double Frameless 332 Bottle #36773

Placement requirements: 60-85F ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature is outside this range, the performance of the unit will be affected.

Size: 47 1/2w x 27d x 69 3/4h (in)

Shelving: 30 pull-out shelves (26 rolling)

Quiet Mode The wine cooler can be put into "quiet mode", which reduces the fan speed by 20-25% and reduces the amount of noise produced by the fans, by pressing and holding the light button (while the display panel is locked from not being touched for 15 seconds) for about 3-5 seconds. The C/F indicator will flash when the unit is in "quiet mode."

• Two independently programmable zones: Each cabinet runs its own single-zone compressor and can be set to a different target temperature. You can age reds in one side and hold whites or Champagne at serving temperature in the other without any zone bleed-over.
• Center-hinged door configuration: The two doors open from the middle outward, not from the outer edges. Factor this into your installation plan — you need clearance on both sides of the pair, not just one.
• 332-bottle count is Bordeaux-based: 166 bottles per side. Wider-shouldered bottles like Burgundy, Rhône, and most Napa Cabs will reduce usable capacity. Mixed collections realistically land closer to 260–290 bottles depending on format.
• 30 pull-out shelves total (26 rolling): Shelves slide out individually for access without disturbing adjacent rows — practical when you’re pulling from a full cabinet rather than rotating a handful of bottles.
• Front-ducted ventilation: Heat exhausts through the front grille, so the unit can be recessed into cabinetry with zero side or rear clearance. Freestanding placement also works without modification.
• R600a compressor refrigerant: Isobutane-based refrigerant runs at lower operating pressure than older R134a systems, which typically translates to quieter operation and lower energy draw — relevant if this cabinet is going into a dining room or finished living space.
• Requires a 15-amp dedicated circuit at 115V / 60Hz — plan accordingly if rough-in electrical isn’t already in place.
• Operating ambient range is 60–85°F. Performance degrades outside that window, so an unheated garage or unconditioned basement may not be suitable year-round.
• Warranty: 1 year on parts and labor, 5 years on the compressor.

What These Specs Mean

• 15-Amp Dedicated Circuit: This unit must run on its own breaker with no other appliances sharing the line — plan for a dedicated outlet during installation or remodel.

PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS

• This appliance is designed for free standing installation or can be recessed into cabinetry.
• The wine cellar should be placed in a location where the ambient temperature is between 60-85°F. If the ambient temperature is outside this range, the performance of the unit may be affected.
• Place your wine cellar on a flat, solid floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level your wine cellar, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the wine cellar.
• When moving your wine cellar, please do not incline it more than 45 degrees.
• Locate the wine cellar away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
• Avoid locating the unit in damp areas.
• Plug the wine cellar into a dedicated (for this appliance only), properly installed and grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (grounding) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or electrical grounding should be directed to a certified electrician or authorized product service center.
• Double units can share the same circuit.

Can the Studio 1200 Double be installed built-in, flush with surrounding cabinetry?

A: Yes. The unit is front-ducted, which means all ventilation runs through the front grille rather than the sides or back. That makes it fully compatible with a built-in installation where the sides and rear are enclosed by cabinetry or a wall. It can also be used freestanding with no modifications. The cabinet measures 47½" wide x 27" deep x 69¾" tall, so plan rough opening dimensions accordingly before installation.

The listed capacity is 332 bottles — is that realistic if my collection includes Burgundy or oversized bottles?

A: The 332-bottle figure is based on standard Bordeaux-sized bottles, which are narrower than Burgundy, Pinot Noir, Rhône or Champagne formats. Because the shelves are sliding wire shelves rather than fixed slots, they do accommodate wider bottles, but fitting larger formats will reduce the total count. A collection heavily weighted toward Burgundy or Napa Cab in wide bottles should realistically plan for something closer to 250–280 bottles across both units. Each side holds up to 166 Bordeaux bottles independently.

Can the two sides be set to different temperatures — for example, one for reds and one for whites?

A: Yes. Each of the two Studio 1200 units operates as an independent single-zone cooler with its own controls. You can program each side separately, so one can be set for long-term red wine aging while the other is dialed in for white wine service temperature. Temperature is displayed on the blue LCD panel inside each cooler and can be read in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

What are the electrical requirements, and does it need a dedicated circuit?

A: The Studio 1200 Double runs on 115V / 60Hz and requires a dedicated 15-Amp circuit. Because this is two compressor-driven units combined, a shared or multi-outlet circuit is not sufficient. If you are installing this in a finished basement, dining room or cellar remodel, confirm a dedicated 15-Amp line is in place before delivery.

What does the warranty cover, and how long is it?

A: The Studio 1200 Double carries a 1-year warranty on parts and labor and a 5-year warranty on the compressor. The extended compressor coverage is meaningful here because the unit uses an R600a refrigerant compressor system — the same hydrocarbon-based refrigerant found in high-efficiency European cellar units. Compressor failure is the most costly repair on any wine cooler, so the 5-year term provides real long-term protection.

What ambient temperature range does this unit require to function properly?

A: The Studio 1200 Double is rated to perform correctly when the surrounding ambient temperature stays between 60°F and 85°F. Installing it in an uninsulated garage, a space that drops below 60°F in winter, or a room that exceeds 85°F in summer can push the compressor outside its operating range and affect temperature stability inside the cabinet. A climate-controlled basement, finished utility room or interior living space will give it the best operating conditions.
