U-Line Appliance Repair

Are U-Line Appliances Good?

U-Line products are primarily targeted at a niche customer base of epicureans and professionals from the hospitality industry. The company was founded in 1962 by Henry Uihlein Sr.—who invented the first residential under-counter ice maker—and specializes in manufacturing refrigeration and wine preservation appliances, including refrigerators, freezers and wine cellars.

U-Line Corporation has registered over fifty patents for its innovations, proof that it invests a great deal of effort in perfecting its equipment. The company even introduced the first under- counter wine cellar in North America. It’s also renowned for its sense of design and attention to detail, offering models with concealed hinges or that can be fitted with custom panels to blend harmoniously with any kitchen décor.

Since 2014, U-Line has been a member of the Middleby Group, which includes other prestigious appliance brands like AGA, La Cornue, Marvel, and Viking.

Are U-Line Appliances Reliable?

Due to U-Line’s specialized customer base, comprehensive information on product reliability is limited. In addition, as a private company, it’s not required to disclose as much information as a publicly traded one.

However, one would expect a manufacturer with over 60 years of experience and a proven track record in commercial settings to offer equipment designed for intensive use.

What’s more, refrigeration appliances have relatively simple mechanics. This means there’s less risk of breakage than with complex appliances with many moving parts.

Where Are U-Line Appliances Built?

All U-Line appliances are designed and assembled at the company’s headquarters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin before being sold worldwide.

What’s the Difference Between U-Line and ULINE?

This is proof that a simple hyphen can lead to significant confusion! U-Line specializes in manufacturing household appliances and refrigeration equipment, whereas ULINE is a major distributor of office and warehouse supplies. This is such a common misunderstanding that the ULINE website even devotes an entire page to clearing things up.
