The KitchenAid KUWL314KSS is a 24-inch undercounter wine cellar designed to seamlessly integrate into your kitchen or entertainment area, offering both functionality and elegance. With a capacity to hold up to 46 standard Bordeaux-size wine bottles, this appliance caters to both casual enthusiasts and serious collectors.
Design and Installation
Featuring a fully flush installation with hidden hinges, the KUWL314KSS provides a built-in look that aligns perfectly with surrounding cabinetry. The stainless steel cabinet and base grille complement the stainless steel door, creating a cohesive and sophisticated appearance. The UV-protected thermal glass door not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also safeguards your wine collection from harmful UV rays, preserving the quality and flavor of your wines.
Temperature Control and Storage
This wine cellar is equipped with two temperature-controlled zones, allowing you to store different types of wine at their optimal temperatures. The top zone can be adjusted between 42°F and 54°F, ideal for white wines, while the bottom zone ranges from 42°F to 64°F, suitable for red wines. This dual-zone functionality ensures that each bottle is stored under ideal conditions, enhancing the wine's longevity and taste.
The unit includes five upper racks, each capable of holding eight Bordeaux-size bottles, and a lower rack that accommodates six Champagne-style bottles. It's important to note that the overall capacity may vary if your collection includes bottles of non-standard shapes and sizes.
User-Friendly Features
The KUWL314KSS boasts several features designed for convenience and ease of use:
- Motion-Activated LED Lighting: As you approach the wine cellar, the interior LED lighting automatically illuminates, allowing you to view your collection without opening the door. The lights gradually dim and turn off when no longer needed, conserving energy.
- SatinGlide® Full-Extension Metal-Front Racks: These racks extend fully, making it easy to load and retrieve bottles. The metal fronts add a touch of elegance and coordinate with your home décor.
- Temperature Monitoring System: Sensors continuously monitor the internal temperature. If the temperature exceeds 70°F for more than four hours, an over-temperature alarm and indicator light alert you, ensuring your wine remains in optimal conditions.
- Backlit Touch Controls: Located on the divider between the two temperature zones, these controls allow you to easily adjust settings. The lighted control panel displays current temperatures for each zone and other status alerts.
- Door Alarm: If the door is left open for five minutes or more, an alarm sounds every two minutes until the door is closed or the controls are touched, preventing accidental temperature fluctuations.
- Sabbath Mode (Star-K Certified): This feature meets kosher requirements for use on the Jewish Sabbath and other religious holidays by disabling automatic lights and alarm tones.
- Automatic Defrost: The automatic defrost function cycles periodically to reduce frost build-up, eliminating the need for manual defrosting and ensuring consistent performance.
