Design and installation
The Smeg CPS315X wine cooler is designed as an integrated 15cm drawer rather than a freestanding appliance. Its stainless-steel front is intended to match Smeg Classic range appliances, while the anti-fingerprint coating should help maintain a cleaner appearance during regular use.
Installation planning matters because the drawer is intended to sit directly beneath a 45cm-height wine cooler within a standard 60cm aperture. The supplied information also specifies a 15kg maximum load inside the drawer and a 50kg limit above it, which should be considered when designing the surrounding cabinetry.
Organisation and included tools
Inside, the natural oak insert provides a dedicated place for corks, wine savers and corkscrews. This gives the drawer a more purposeful storage layout than a plain cupboard or general-purpose drawer.
The accessory selection is particularly comprehensive. It covers everyday wine opening and pouring, temperature checking, spill reduction and sparkling-wine service, including champagne pliers and specialist corks.
Who should buy it?
This drawer makes most sense as part of a planned entertaining space or integrated wine installation. It can keep serving tools together and close to the wine cooler, while its coordinated finish supports a premium fitted-kitchen look.
It is less suitable as a standalone purchase for general kitchen storage because its main benefit depends on having a compatible wine cooler and the correct cabinetry arrangement.
