Dual temperature zones: This EdgeStar is a dual-zone wine fridge. The upper zone can be set between 54°F and 65°F, the lower zone from 40°F and 54°F.

This dual temperature unit provides you with flexibility to store both red (upper zone) and white wines (lower zone).

Digital temperature control: It has a digital temperature control that allows you to independently adjust upper and lower temperature zones. We find the touch control is intuitive and easy to use.

Reversible glass door: This EdgeStar has a reversible double-paned tempered tinted glass door. You have options to configure the glass door to open to the left or the right. The elegant door has a flat bar handle.

UV protection: The tinted glass door, a premium feature, helps to protect your wine collection from the unfriendly UV rays.

Alarm: No worries when you accidentally leave the door ajar – because the smart alarm will remind you to close the door completely. The same helpful feature to rescue if you set the temperature too low or too high.

LED lighting: This EdgeStar CWR262DZ has a soft LED light to illuminate the interior and show case your collection.

Carbon filter. All premium EdgeStar models come with built-in carbon filters. This model is no exception. This feature will neutralize any undesirable odors that enter into the cooler when you open the door.

The slide-out option is a convenient and functional feature for easy access to your 26-bottle wine collection.

Security lock: This EdgeStar model has a lock to protect your wine collection from unwanted access.

Warranty: This EdgeStar CWR262DZ comes with one-year limited warranty by EdgeStar.
