EvoQ EWC-43BT 43-Bottle Dual-Zone Compressor Wine Cooler, 220-240V

Our review

This is a freestanding wine cooler from EvoQ, model EWC-43BT, built around a compressor rather than a thermoelectric plate. It holds up to 43 bottles across two zones, so you can keep sparkling and lighter whites colder than fuller reds in the same cabinet. The 220-240V, 50Hz supply at 65W suits Tanzanian mains, and it ships with a BS plug, which is worth confirming against your wall sockets or a suitable adapter. R600a refrigerant, fan cooling and auto defrost are the headline mechanical details. Compressor models like this generally recover temperature faster than thermoelectric alternatives and cope better with warm rooms, though they can be slightly noisier and heavier. Before buying, measure the space you have, check the ambient temperature range you will run it in, and count your actual bottle shapes, since wider Burgundy or Champagne bottles take up more room than the nominal 43 suggests. Compare against larger single-zone units if you mostly store one style, and against thermoelectric coolers if silence matters more than cooling power. Available on Sokonia.
