Each of the top three shelves can hold 15 cans, while the fourth and the button shelves can hold 50 cans, or 25 cans each. The removable shelves offer great versatility in accommodation.

This will provide you enough room to store more than 15 bottles of wine.  You can also do the same in case you want to store the bottles (even a 2-liter bottle) instead of cans.

2 – Performance

Cooling system – The BR-130SB has a very efficient and effective cooling system, thanks to its powerful compressor. The air is distributed all around the refrigerator’s interior with an internal fan; this allows even and efficient cooling in all areas. In other words, each bottle or can inside the fridge are evenly cooled. The sound produced by the fan is almost inaudible unless you’re very close to it.

Temperature control – The temperature control dial is located on the inside of the refrigerator just in front of the LED light on the ceiling. The temperature options range from high 30 degrees F to mid 60 degrees.

Its flexible storage design is a bonus which allows you to store any type of beverages, regardless of its size or shape. A drawback of this model would be the door lock which is not available, but this is just a minor issue.
