"We took it to the wine cooler repair place…"

Hi, AskMe. We have a wine cooler in our kitchen which isn't, well, cooling. It's apparently not respecting its temperature setting. Where do we start to get this looked at?
We have a home warranty but the cooler is apparently not covered. I'm just wondering what kind of maintenance person we should look for, and how to know if we find a decent one? Doing this ourselves is probably not going to happen, as I'm blind and my mom isn't handy at all.

Yes, a refrigerator tech can help. Before you call them, if you haven't already, pull the cooler out, unplug it, and and use a vacuum to clean the coils and any other dust buildup. This alone can solve a lot of refrigeration issues, and it's an easy 15-minute DIY.
