Good Points

Chills wines very quickly.


Bad Points

The chill cells have expanded and gel leaked from them after approx 3 months and 25 uses.


General Comments

The idea is excellent and the Breville WC2 Rapid Wine Chiller appeared to work very well when first used, however after a few months the chill cells started to break at the ends and the contents expanded so much that they cracked and then broke.

    I have had the Breville Wine Chiller for 10 months now, and have this to say; at first the chiller works wonderfully, cooling a bottle of sparkling wine down to cold in 10 minutes. But after a few uses ( 5-6 ) the "unique" chill cells expand at the plastic moulding on the top, cracks at the screw, and the gel leaks out (all over the freezer).
    I know that this is not an isolated occourance, because I am now on my 3rd lot of three cells. Each time Breville has been contacted they have sent another 3 out promptly, but do not acknowlege there to be any other similar complaints. My warranty runs out in November. Sure I could use ice instead, but that is why I chose the Breville over the Sunbeam wine Chiller.
