Electrical Absorption Beverage Center from Germany
> An electrical absorption beverage center is a household-type refrigerator that uses an absorption cooling cycle powered by electricity, rather than a compressor, to chill beverages such as wine, beer, and sodas. It is designed for residential use, often as a built-in or freestanding unit, and falls under tariff item 8418.29.00 as an "other" household refrigerator, since it is not a compression-type unit and is not elsewhere specified.
