What’s the Difference? Beverage Centers, Wine Coolers, Undercounter Fridges

What is a Beverage Center? 

Let’s get one thing straight: a beverage center is not at all the same thing as a mini fridge. A miniature fridge is just that: a smaller version of a refrigerator. A beverage center has several features that that set it apart from the simplicity of a mini fridge such as better organization, a more sophisticated appearance, and features to boot  

Made for both wine and regular drinks that need to be chilled, a beverage center is a convenient appliance to place in any area of your home—especially the play room, a sports den, kitchen, or space where parties tend to take place. 

This KitchenAid black stainless steel beverage center (KUBL304EBS) is a great option for any home with a sleek and professionally-inspired design. The PrintShield Finish feature ensures a fingerprint-resistant fridge so you don’t have to stress about wiping it down after every hand touches it. And even though this beverage center is on the small size, it is still able to fit and display numerous wine or champagne bottles as well as other drinks. 

While the outside is stunning, it’s really all about the inside when it comes to refrigerators. The Two Temperature-Controlled Zones feature allows for two independent temperature zones to keep your beverages, appetizers, and wine bottles all at the right temperatures. You’ll be able to adjust the upper zone from 33 degrees to 40 degrees and the lower zone from 42 degrees to 64 degrees. 

So, if you enjoy hosting and want an easily accessible fridge for guests or for yourself, having a beverage center is the ideal choice.
