Free, confirm-first email when the price drops on Summit Appliance 15" Wide Panel Ready Built-In Residential Shallow 18" Depth Wine Cellar (best partner price today: $2,107.71).
Summit's shallow-depth series of built-in undercounter refrigeration brings full functionality to kitchen islands, wet bars, and other settings with space limitations. The SDHW1532PNRLHD is a 15" wide single-zone wine cellar sized at 18" deep. It comes in a 34" height to fit standard counter spaces. The front-breathing system allows built-in installation, while the fully finished black cabinet also allows freestanding use. This unit has a sealed rear and right angle cord for a better fit. A lock is located in the kickplate for added security. The panel-ready SDHW1532PNRLHD features our fully articulating European hinge, with a 2-piece bracket kit included to allow easy installation of your own custom door trim (panels not included). This unit comes with a left-hand door swing. For a right-hand version, see the SDHW1532PNR. The inside features stainless steel construction for improved durability and sanitation. White LED lighting in the side walls provides elegant display conditions, with dimmable levels that let you create the perfect presentation. The angled digital control panel enables you to adjust the temperature between 41 and 68F to accommodate red, white, or sparkling wine bottles. Our uniquely designed steel shelves in a jet black finish slide out smoothly, with stainless steel front trim to complete the classic look. Fan-forced cooling ensures even temperature distribution and fast temperature recovery. Additional features include an open-door alarm, a high-temperature alarm, and a Sabbath mode setting that turns off some electrical elements for up to 96 hours during observances. With its deluxe style, user-friendly features, and uniquely shallow depth, this unit offers premium value for a variety of settings. Create a matching set by pairing this with our SDHG1533PNRLHD beverage center. Alternative 18" deep choices are available in 15", 19", and 24" widths, including outdoor refrigerators, refrigerator drawers, and more. NOTE: The interior can store up to 18 Bordeaux-style bottles. Due to the shallow depth of this unit, we recommend loading the bottles with the cork facing the rear for a better fit. Wider Burgundy bottles will fit on most shelves, but as these may vary more in size, loading capacity will ultimately depend on your specific bottle. You may also remove shelves to accommodate thicker bottles, such as champagne and sparkling wine. Summit Appliance Hinge Location: Left Handed

Brand Background
Summit Appliance, a division of Felix Storch, Inc., has operated out of the Bronx, New York since 1969, carving out a distinctive niche in specialty refrigeration that sets it apart from mainstream appliance manufacturers. The company's catalog on Fridge.com encompasses 907 active products, reflecting an unusually broad range of specialized cooling solutions. Rather than competing in the standard kitchen refrigerator market, Summit focuses heavily on commercial and specialty categories—the brand offers 161 upright freezers, 153 kegerators, 153 beverage centers, and 78 built-in units, alongside 161 french-door models. This distribution reveals a manufacturer deeply invested in foodservice, hospitality, and medical applications rather than typical residential needs. ADA-compliant models like the CT661WADA compact freezer demonstrate Summit's commitment to accessibility requirements, while units like the SBC15NKCSS kegerator highlight their strength in beverage dispensing equipment. With products carrying an average rating of 3.7 out of 5, Summit Appliance occupies the mainstream tier but serves markets that premium residential brands often overlook, making it a go-to source for undercounter installations, laboratory storage, and commercial beverage applications where specialized dimensions and compliance certifications matter most.
