If you're a frequent entertainer, an oenophile with a big wine collection, or looking to add an extra feature in a home bar, a wine cooler or beverage center makes a great addition! The selection of wine and beverage refrigerators at P.C. Richard & Son is sure to have the perfect choice for any space in any room of your home, including:

The Best Beverage Cooler for Your Kitchen

Whether you're looking for a countertop model or an in-cabinet style, the kitchen is probably first on the list of spots to add a beverage fridge. If easy installation is a priority and you've got counterspace with a nearby outlet, a small countertop model is a nice option. For a seamless fit within a cabinet setup, look for an undercounter model. A custom panel fridge will allow you to match your kitchen's existing cabinets to create a uniform look. Be sure to take accurate measurements of the open cabinet space, and don't forget to make sure your chosen spot has an available wall outlet!

The Best Beer Fridges for Your Rec Room

The laid-back feel of this room most likely calls for access to grab-and-open beverages like sodas, teas, juices, or beer for the grownups. For a low-maintenance installation, go with a freestanding beverage fridge - these can be placed anywhere with an accessible outlet, and a glass door model is a good choice for quick visibility of what's inside.

The Best Wine & Beer Fridges for a Home Bar

If you want your wine or beverage cooler to seamlessly fit into a home bar setup, an undercounter model is best. A glass-front model makes it easy to see which beverages are available and which ones need restocking. Looking for a wine and beer fridge in one? Check out a dual-zone model with space to accommodate two different temperatures, keeping wine at proper cellar temperature while keeping beer and soda colder. Again, be sure to properly measure space and double check for the availability of a wall outlet.

The Best Beverage Coolers for an Outdoor Kitchen

Outdoor entertaining becomes even easier when a beverage refrigerator is in your guests' easy reach! Solid-door undercounter models in stainless steel are perfect for outfitting an outdoor kitchen setup, keeping beverages as well as other perishables within easy reach during a barbecue or pool party. Be aware that you'll need an in-ground electrical line in order to power your refrigerator.

The Best Wine Coolers for a Basement

If you're a wine connoisseur, this is probably the spot where you want to store your collection! Pay attention to the size restrictions and outlet availability when deciding on how large of a model you want. Whether you need space for six bottles or over 100, you're sure to find the best wine cooler for your home.
