Default Best Wine Cabinet value?

Friends:

We're looking at moving from our present digs (with a below ground cellar where
my bottles are currently stored) to a new, larger bi-level house, where the
"basement" is only partially below grade. I don't think that this new basement
will be nearly as temperature-stable or wine-friendly than our current place.
Thus, I'm thinking of purchasing a large temp/humi controlled wine cabinet for
long-term storage, in the 200-220 bottle range.

FWIW, we generally keep about 15-20 cases on hand; 30 bottles in a
below-the-counter vinotemp unit in our kitchen (which we will continue to do),
12-15 cases "sleeping" in the basement in modular wood racks, and 2-3 "drink in
the next month or so" cases in tupperware bins in front of the basement racks.

Any thoughts on price and value (including names of retailers) would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!
