Transtherm Double Prestige Loft Vintage #35333
Overview
Featuring the latest technology and designed for smaller spaces, this Transtherm cellar stands approximately 3 feet tall and maintains perfect temperature and humidity levels for wine storage and aging.
Details
When a collection grows past a few dozen bottles and needs a proper home without consuming full-height wall space, the Transtherm Double Prestige Loft Vintage answers the brief. At just under 38 inches tall, this double-wide unit from Eurocave’s French manufacturing operation fits under counters, beneath staircases or into low-clearance built-ins while managing up to 144 Bordeaux bottles across two independently controlled compartments. Each side runs on its own 15-amp circuit, which means you can hold reds and whites at separate target temperatures in a single footprint roughly the width of a standard sideboard.
Ten rolling metal shelves—five per side—adjust in height and accommodate different bottle formats beyond Bordeaux, so Burgundy, Champagne and larger-format bottles integrate without forcing compromises. Wood-trimmed shelf fronts keep the interior from feeling purely utilitarian, and the double-paned reversible glass door on each cabinet lets you see the collection without opening the door and disrupting the environment. Transtherm’s thermal management holds both temperature and humidity at the levels serious aging requires, not just rough approximations.
Best For
- Fitting serious cellar capacity into a finished basement bar, kitchen island end or under-stair niche where a full-height cabinet won't work
- Running one side at cellaring temperature for Bordeaux and Rhône while holding the other slightly cooler for white Burgundy or Champagne
- A second-home installation where the collection needs reliable long-term storage without requiring a dedicated cellar room
- Collectors transitioning from a single-zone cooler who want two independent environments and room to grow to 144 bottles

What These Specs Mean
- 15-Amp Dedicated Circuit: Each cabinet unit requires its own dedicated breaker; sharing a circuit with other appliances risks voltage fluctuations that can affect temperature stability. This double unit requires two separate 15-amp circuits.
- 120V / 60Hz: North American electrical standard only — this unit is not compatible with European or international electrical systems without a step-down transformer.

Q&A
Can each side of the Double Loft Vintage be set to a different temperature?
A: Yes. The Double Loft Vintage is two independent cabinets joined together, each with its own digital thermostat and cooling system. This means you can set the left side to a long-term aging temperature for Bordeaux or Burgundy and the right side to a cooler service temperature for whites — a meaningful advantage over a single-zone unit of comparable size.
What are the electrical requirements, and can this unit run on a shared circuit?
A: No shared circuits. Because this is a double unit, it requires two separate 15-amp dedicated circuits — one per side — running at 120V / 60Hz. Plan your electrical rough-in accordingly before delivery. A single 15-amp circuit is insufficient and will not support both compressors.
Is this cabinet freestanding or can it be built into cabinetry?
A: Freestanding only. Loft cabinets require 3 inches of clearance behind the unit and 2 inches on the sides and above for proper ventilation. Enclosing it in cabinetry without those clearances will compromise the cooling system. If a built-in application is your goal, this unit is not the right fit.
How many bottles does it actually hold if I’m storing Burgundy or Champagne alongside Bordeaux?
A: The 144-bottle capacity is rated for standard Bordeaux bottles (72 per side). The 10 universal rolling metal shelves — 5 per side, adjustable in height — are designed to accommodate different bottle shapes and sizes including Burgundy and Champagne formats, though total count will be modestly lower when mixing in larger-diameter bottles. The flexibility is built in; the headline number assumes uniform Bordeaux bottles.
What does the warranty cover and for how long?
A: The cabinet carries a 1-year limited warranty covering parts and labor and a separate 5-year limited warranty on the compressor. The compressor coverage is the more meaningful figure for long-term owners — it reflects Transtherm’s confidence in the core cooling component and limits your exposure to the most expensive repair scenario.
What ambient temperature range does this cabinet require to operate correctly?
A: The Loft Vintage is rated to operate in environments between 32°F and 95°F (0–35°C). An unheated garage that drops below freezing in winter or a space without air conditioning that regularly exceeds 95°F will push the unit outside its design envelope and affect both performance and longevity.
