GE Undercounter Wine Reserve with Privacy Glass
There are quite a few undercounter wine refrigerators out there, but GE’s “Monogram Privacy Glass Wine Reserve” adds a new twist. It has a privacy door that is made from two layers of UV resistant glass with a liquid crystal glass laminate between them.
“Liquid crystals within the laminate manage light flow through the glass door. In an uncharged state liquid crystals are randomly set and block rays of light from passing through the window. When the privacy display is inactivated with an electrical charge, the crystals or pixels align in a parallel fashion and rays of light can pass through both layers of glass.”
Why, you ask, do you need a wine refrigerator with a privacy glass? GE states a couple of reasons. For one thing, the tinted glass protects the wine from being tainted by ultraviolet light that can harm the tannins. Also, hiding the wine allows you to place the reserve in any room in the house.
