The can zone must reach 36–38 °F, and it must vent from the front to live under a counter. Bottle counts come last.
Three uses, one pick each
EUHOMY 21 bottles + 88 cans35 °F can zone, front vents, and the cheapest of four look-alikes.
The catch: Noise not published; 34.3 in tall with the handle.
NewAir 46-bottle (AWR-460DB)46 bottles behind a front vent and a recessed kick plate — the reference wine-only unit.
The catch: 40 °F floor: there is no can zone.
BODEGA 77 + 180 column77 bottles and 180 cans, a 37 °F floor, wine to 72 °F.
The catch: 67 in tall — this is not an under-counter unit.
Prices and ratings: Amazon, checked 2026-09-06, only where we could verify the listing; the rest are blank rather than guessed.
Every 24-inch dual-zone fridge, side by side

Where each zone can actually go
Blue bar is the beverage (or cooler) zone, rose bar the wine zone, on one temperature axis. The three shaded bands are what the drinks want. A blue bar that starts to the right of the can band is a fridge that will never serve a properly cold can.
Zone ranges are the makers’ published figures (sources on each card). The bands are conventional serving ranges, not a claim about any product: cans 36–38 °F, whites and sparkling 45–50 °F, reds 55–65 °F. Sorted by beverage-zone floor, coldest first.
TakeawayEvery under-counter unit except the NewAir reaches a can-cold zone; the NewAir is a wine-only cabinet sold with “beverage” in the name. If cans matter, the EUHOMY, Electactic, BODEGA and Ca’Lefort go to 35–36 °F; the Kalamera stops at 38. → EUHOMY 21 + 88 · check price
Front vent or rear vent decides where it can live
A compressor fridge has to dump heat somewhere. Front-venting units push it out through a grille under the door and can sit flush in cabinetry; rear-venting units need open air behind them.
Front-venting (built-in capable)
Maker guidance we found asks for roughly ¼ in at the sides and top and an unobstructed front grille. Every under-counter unit on this page claims front venting; the Antarctic Star listing title says “built-in or freestanding” but we could not confirm the vent.
Rear-venting (freestanding only)
Guidance from the same makers asks for several inches behind and to the sides. Boxed into a cabinet, the compressor runs hot and short. The 67-inch BODEGA column does not state its venting — treat it as freestanding.
Clearance figures paraphrase manufacturer FAQs (Danby, Vinotemp) rather than any unit on this page; the unit’s own manual wins.
TakeawayUnder a counter: every front-venting unit above qualifies, and the 33–34 in heights fit a standard 34½ in opening. The 67 in BODEGA column and any unit that does not say front-venting need open air behind them. → NewAir 46-bottle · see it
What will actually fit?
Uses the makers’ stated capacities, which assume standard 750 ml Bordeaux bottles and 12 oz cans; taller bottles cost you a shelf. Nothing is pre-filled.
Choose in about a minute
Cans or not?
If yes, the beverage zone must reach 38 °F or lower: that rules out the NewAir and any unit whose listing quotes 40 °F as the minimum. If not, skip the can-capable units — they give up wine bottles to make room for cans.
Under a counter, or standing free?
Under a counter: front-venting only, and check the height with the handle — 33 to 34.3 in across these. Standing free: anything, including the 67-inch column.
How warm do you serve reds?
Most wine zones stop at 64–66 °F; the BODEGA units reach 68–72. If you like reds at room-ish temperature, that is the difference.
Then, and only then, bottles and cans
The under-counter units are all within a few bottles of each other. Use the filter above; do not pay for capacity you will fill once a year.
Short version: wine + cans under the counter → EUHOMY · wine only → NewAir 46-bottle · capacity → BODEGA column
Wine + cans, under the counter
Beverage zone must reach 36–38 °F and the unit must vent from the front. Four units here do both.
EUHOMY 24″ Dual Zone, 21 bottles + 88 cans
35 °F can zone, front vents, and the cheapest of four look-alikes.
Buy this if: You want wine and cold cans in one under-counter box and would rather not pay for a badge.
The catchNoise not published; 34.3 in tall with the handle.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
Beverage zone down to 35 °F, wine zone 41–64 °F, front vents, and the lowest Amazon price of the four look-alike 21-bottle units. Pick it on price; the chassis is the same story as the next three.
What it does well
- 35 °F floor on the beverage side — cans actually get cold
- Front-venting: built-in under a counter or freestanding
- Cheapest of the four near-identical 21 + 88 units on Amazon
Where it falls short
- Noise figure not published on the page we checked
- 34.3 in tall with the handle — measure your counter opening
Specs: EUHOMY listing text (Walmart/Amazon); dimensions incl. handle. We earn a commission if you buy through this link.
Electactic 24″ Dual Zone, 21 bottles + 88 cans
The same zones as the EUHOMY, plus a 40 dB claim and two locks.
Buy this if: The noise figure matters to you and $50 does not.
The catch$50 more; the listing says 88 cans, the body says 80.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
Identical zone ranges and capacity to the EUHOMY, with a 40 dB noise claim the EUHOMY listing does not make. $50 more on Amazon for that claim and a second door lock.
What it does well
- 40 dB compressor claim — the only one of the look-alikes to publish a figure
- 35–50 / 41–64 °F, same as the EUHOMY
- Two door locks
Where it falls short
- Dimensions not in the listing text we checked
- Listing title says 88 cans, listing body says 80 (330 ml) — count on 80

BODEGA 24″ Dual Zone, 19 bottles + 57 cans (JC-115DR)
The widest range here — 36–50 and 41–68 °F — in the shortest cabinet.
Buy this if: You want the widest temperature latitude and a shorter cabinet, and capacity is secondary.
The catchThe smallest capacity, and no verified Amazon listing.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
Wine zone runs to 68 °F, beverage zone to 36 °F, ≤42 dB, and it is the shortest unit here at 33.4 in. Fewer bottles and cans than the look-alikes; the maker asks a good deal more for it.
What it does well
- 36–50 / 41–68 °F — the widest combined range on the page
- 33.4 in tall: fits under more counters than the 34-inch units
- ≤42 dB, frost-free, two-year warranty
Where it falls short
- 19 bottles + 57 cans is the smallest under-counter capacity here
- Amazon listing not verified for this version — no price or rating shown
Specs: bodegacooler.com product page (JC-115DR). BODEGA is an affiliate partner, but this link is untagged and earns us nothing.
Ca’Lefort 24″ Dual Zone, 21 bottles + 60 cans
Both zones reach the 40s: run it as two white-wine zones.
Buy this if: You keep whites and sparkling more than reds and want two cold zones.
The catch60 cans; dimensions not published.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
36–54 °F on the beverage side and 40–65 °F on the wine side, under 42 dB, front-venting, French doors. Ca’Lefort is a regular on this search’s first page; we could not verify an Amazon listing.
What it does well
- Both zones overlap 40–54 °F — you can run it as two white-wine zones
- Under 42 dB claim; front venting
Where it falls short
- 60 cans, fewer than the 88-can units
- Dimensions not on the page we checked
Specs: calefort.com product page (4.1 cu ft, <42 dB, zone ranges). We earn nothing on this brand; linked anyway.
Kalamera 24″ Dual Zone, 20 bottles + 78 cans
The most compact: 33 in tall, 22.4 in deep.
Buy this if: Every inch of height matters and 38 °F is cold enough for what you drink.
The catch38 °F floor — the warmest can zone on the page.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
The beverage zone stops at 38 °F — two to three degrees warmer than the units above. Fine for beer and soda; a touch warm if you like a can properly cold. Front-venting, 33 in tall.
What it does well
- 33 in tall, 22.4 in deep — the most compact footprint here
- Front-venting with a stated no-rear-clearance design
- Temperature memory after a power cut
Where it falls short
- 38 °F beverage floor — the warmest of the can-capable units
- Amazon price and rating not verified for this version
Specs: kalamera.com product page; Amazon listing title. We earn nothing on this brand; linked anyway.
Antarctic Star 24″ Dual Zone (B0GVS9YNT9)
4.4 stars from 106 buyers, from the brand behind our beverage-fridge pick.
Buy this if: You trust the brand from our beverage-fridge guide and will read the listing bullets yourself.
The catchZone temperatures, venting and size are unverified for this ASIN.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
We have the Amazon price and rating for this one and not much else. The catalogue we pulled carries the title, not the bullet points, and Antarctic Star’s own site lists several 24-inch units with different zone ranges. Everything we could not pin to this ASIN is blank.
What it does well
- 4.4 stars across 106 Amazon ratings; the same brand supplies the evidence pick in our beverage-fridge guide
- Listing title says built-in or freestanding
Where it falls short
- Zone temperatures, venting, dimensions and noise: not verified for this ASIN
Specs: Amazon listing title only (24-inch dual zone, built-in or freestanding). We earn a commission if you buy through this link.
Wine only
Check that the cooler zone reaches 45 °F — and accept that 40 °F is as cold as it gets.
NewAir 24″ 46-Bottle Dual Zone (AWR-460DB)
46 bottles behind a front vent and a recessed kick plate — the reference wine-only unit.
Buy this if: It is for wine, only wine, and you want the most bottles that fit under a counter.
The catch40 °F floor: there is no can zone.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
Two zones, both for wine — the upper stops at 40 °F. That is the whole point of this section: a “dual zone” that cannot chill a can. For 46 bottles under a counter with beechwood shelves it is the reference unit; for cans it is the wrong product.
What it does well
- 46 bottles in a 24-inch built-in with a recessed kick plate
- Front-venting compressor; carbon filter; UV glass
- The brand most other 24-inch units are compared against
Where it falls short
- 40 °F is the floor — no can zone
- Amazon listing not verified; no price shown
Specs: newair.com and retailer listings (zone ranges, front-venting compressor, recessed kick plate). We earn nothing on this brand; linked anyway.
Big column, not under-counter
“24 inch” is the width. Read the height before you order.
BODEGA 24″ Column, 77 bottles + 180 cans
77 bottles and 180 cans, a 37 °F floor, wine to 72 °F.
Buy this if: You have the floor space and wanted a wine-and-drinks column, not a counter insert.
The catch67 in tall — this is not an under-counter unit.
Why we say that — and where it falls short
It matches the search term — 24 inches wide, dual zone — and it is 67 inches tall. Beverage zone 37–64 °F, wine zone 41–72 °F, 77 bottles and 180 cans. A very good column fridge that is not an under-counter unit, listed here so nobody orders it for one.
What it does well
- Nearly four times the capacity of the under-counter units
- 37 °F beverage floor; wine zone to 72 °F
- 4.7 stars on Amazon, though from only 32 ratings
Where it falls short
- 67 inches tall and 27 inches deep — this is a standing cabinet
- Venting not stated on the maker page we checked; assume it needs clearance

What we did not do
We did not test any of these. Zone ranges, venting, dimensions and noise figures come from maker pages and Amazon listing text checked September 2026; where a listing gave us only a title, we left the row blank rather than borrow numbers from a look-alike. Prices move weekly in this category — the link shows the live one.
Prices: Amazon, checked September 2026. The NewAir link goes to the maker's site — it is not on our Amazon affiliate program.
BODEGA (15%), EUHOMY, Electactic and Antarctic Star (10%) pay us a commission when you buy through our tagged links; NewAir, Kalamera and Ca’Lefort pay us nothing and are linked anyway. Our under-counter pick is a EUHOMY, which pays us — and it is also the cheapest of four identical-spec units, which is the reason. The wine-only pick, NewAir, earns us nothing.
