Here is my new project to store my cc's.
Scratch n dent Whynter 28 bottle wine cooler for $150.00 shipped to my door.
Damage was in the rear and cosmetic only

Two replacement drawers that fit the Whynter CHC 251S (my other wineador) ordered online. These drawers fit the Whynter 28S perfectly. I also ordered four shelves. Only two have arrived the other two will be here next week. Did not want to order more than needed.

Four shelves = $84.00

Two draweres = $72.00

Cooler = $150.00
Total cost = $306.00

Looking back, I could have saved $44.00 by not ordering the two additional shelves. This would have dropped my cost to $262.00. I went this route because I needed additional storage quickly due to incoming orders and an overstuffed wineador.
Ordered, cleaned and seasoned in 14 days. (Six days to receive, four days to clean, three days to season, last day to fill it up)
Sorry fellas, the wineador is already full.

Nice addition brother. Just plugged my new wineador in after letting it air out for a few days. Fixing to begin seasoning it tomorrow or Monday. Should be full by Friday :D
Good to hear. My orders came in before I finished seasoning. Ziploc bags and boveda to the rescue. The activated charcoal (while running) worked wonders on the plastic smell after letting it air out. Can't wait to see your finished product.(y)(y)

I'm glad you said that. I have to go get some baking soda and activated charcoal to throw in there today. Hopefully any remaining odor will be gone by Monday so that I can begin the seasoning process.

I received some nice stickers but still debating using them on the wineador because they are not transparent.

Nice! Depending how big they are, maybe you could place one in each corner or something. That would leave your view of the center of the glass door un-obstructed.

Take some news paper crumble it up and stuff it in for a day with it closed. Then Baking soda and some warm water solution with a sponge let it sit for a couple hours and dry up then clean out ( all with distiller water) then the smell should be gone. If the smell of still there ^^ great build btw!!

They are almost the width of the glass in the door. May be able to get someone to create what I want using them for the design. I'll post pic near the door in a few.
