Perlick C-Series comparable to Signature Series Beverage Center?
Comments (2)I think I am particularly sensitive given it's proximity to where I sit. For people who notice noise level of appliances, I've seen several comments about the Marvel being noisier than other brands... and I find that the noise is noticeable for mine... but if you're not in a quiet environment, it probably doesn't make a difference....See MoreCan a beverage center be used as an undercounter food fridge?
Comments (8)Look at Perlick for undercounter refrigeration. They have fridegs, freezers, wine coolers, drawers and combinations. Perlick makes the undercounter units used in stadiums and a lot of restaurants and bars. They are energy star rated, have a variable speed compressor, are no louder than a standard fridge, and have stainless steel drawers with glides that will hold more weight than I could figure out how to put in them. They can be integrated or have stainless fronts. We have the fridge drawers in out breakfast/coffee hutch and may put freezer drawers in our laundry room to get some counter space there....See MorePerlick undercounter beverage center/fridge - issues with shelves?
Comments (22)Advice if a Perlick is chosen and you have to install it yourself. (a) it is much easier to move it if you first remove the door (very simple) and the shelves and shelf glides (fairly simple) (b) keep in mind that when it slides along the floor into position, changes can occur to the adjustable support pads, and also that the floor may not be the same under the counter. Hence, level outside, move inside, measure level in three axes, pull out and set the pads to the approximate negative of any mis-level at the installed position, try again. Unlike SZ refrigerator/freezers, the back pads can't be adjusted from the front. (c) cabinets can look very square to the line of the wall but not be, and this will affect the Perlick alignment at the front as well as the door opening. Square up all cabinets relative to the line defining the cabinet fronts before bonding the counter to the cabinets. (d) countertop should be deep enough to allow the cabinets to be located a bit away from the wall behind them. Mine is 29.5 inches deep, but I had some stuff to avoid behind the 24-inch cabinets....See MorePerlick or Sub-Zero Undercounter Beverage Center
Comments (9)We've had a Sub-Zero for about a year and like it. It's quiet and chills our wine nicely. It has two temperature zones which is nice for reds and white. I also looked at the Perlick and can't remember there being a huge difference between the two. I think I chose Sub-Zero because I knew I would get great service form Wolf-Sub-Zero if anything went wrong and the racks seemed to roll a bit nicer....See Morerepac
