Died in 5 years
I have a September 1998 3000 XLT unit. It has stopped cooling after almost exactly 5 years, resulting in a very expensive annual cost. It appears that the refrigerant has leaked out. Unless they have learned how to better construct their units to prevent leaks, I would expect similar service from current units.
Replaces our 17 year old WhisperKOOL3000
This new model has one improvement over the old one in that it's thermostat is digital.We haven't had the new one quite 2 months yet, but it is performing just fine. The old one needed to be sent to a factory repair center about half way through its life. That was frustrating because they had the unit for 6 weeks to repair a leak in the refrigerant lines. We're keeping our fingers crossed for this new model. Basically, WhisperKOOL is about the only game in town for small wine cellar climate control. We were pleased that the dimensions of the new model were identical to the old one's, so we did not need to modify our cellar wall opening to have it fit properly. July 10, 2013.
