VoChill is the world’s first personal wine glass chiller, through which wine can be kept chilled from start to finish. There is no need to put ice in the wine to chill it. Wine can be kept perfectly chilled in this Vochill system without adding ice.
Be it any wine, if it is chilled and drunk, then its taste is very good. If wine is drunk in the middle of a long conversation, then it does not remain chilled. Vochill’s stemmed and stemless product has been invented to keep wine chilled from start to finish for longer.
This unique effortless wine chilling has been invented by Texas-based husband and wife Randall and Lisa Pawlik.
The couple went to a wine bar in Austin, Texas to drink wine when they realized that the wine was warming rapidly due to the Texas heat. They needed something that would keep the temperature of the wine perfect but would not change the taste of the wine.
To solve this problem, Randall invented the Stemmed and Stemless product, and the VoChill company was officially launched in April 2018.
Randall and Lisa both appeared on Shark Tank Season 14 Episode 10 with their company VoChill and asked the shark for $300,000 for a 5% equity at a $6 Million Valuation.
What Is VoChill?
VoChill is the world’s first effortless personal wine glass chiller device. With the help of this device, we can keep the wine glass chilled from the first sip to the last sip.
The chill system of VoChill comes in two variants, stemmed and stemless. Its price is $49.95 and $44.95. You can buy them from Amazon and the company website.
Before using this chill system, you have to keep this chill system in the freezer for 3 hours. Once the chill cradle is frozen solid, take it out and attach it to the stand. Now stemmed and stemless wine chiller is ready to keep wine glasses in it.
Once the wine glass is finished, remove the chill cradle from the stand and clean it thoroughly with a dry towel. Always use a soft cloth to clean the chiller.
Always hand wash this chill system. Small strong magnets are used in wine chillers to keep the children away from them.

Randall has invented this unique product to keep wine glasses chilled from start to finish.

Lisa Pawlik

VoChill Before Shark Tank
Randall and Lisa came up with the idea for Vochill at a wine bar in Austin Texas when they noticed that the wine was warming due to the heat in Texas.
To keep wine glasses chilled, this idea was born. Randall started working on this idea. Made a prototype with some of his small ice packs and rubber and it started working.
Randall’s CAD skills helped him build the prototype. Initially, he shared his idea with close friends and family. Immediately he made a prototype of this product and after that, he shared this idea with more people.
They started looking for a USA-based manufacturer for a manufacturing partnership and after many rejections, they found the manufacturer.
At the time of 2020 COVID-19, they had to face packaging issues but after some time they resolved this issue.
The VoChill Stemless Wine Chiller is one of the 104 gift products featured on Oprah’s Favorite Things 2022 list.
How Was The Shark Tank Pitch Of VoChill?
Randall and Lisa both enter Shark Tank and ask the sharks for $300k for a 5% equity. This Husband and Wife gave a great presentation of their product in Shark Tank.
The selling price for the stemmed version is $49.95 and the stemless version is $44.95, with the making costs being $9.21 and $8.62. Last year they made $820,000 in sales, this sale came from Amazon and their website. This (2022) year their sales have been $1.8 million.
Now they are not profitable in this business. Kevin O’Leary says that because its price is high, it makes the customer cry. Their customer acquisition (CPA – Cost per acquisition) cost is $57.
Gwyneth Paltrow said it is a great product but she cannot invest in it. Lori Greiner said that she did not understand this business properly, and then she was out.
Finalize: VoChill didn’t get the deal in Shark Tank.
VoChill Shark Tank Update
VoChill didn’t get the deal in Shark Tank but Kevin O’Leary asked for a royalty deal but the founder refused. This product is very expensive and their customer acquisition cost is also very high.
This is a cool product, hope some wine lovers will buy this product. Shark liked the idea of this product. If the price of this product is reduced, then its sales can skyrocket.
A perfectly chilled glass of white wine sounds ideal right now! #SharkTank #VoChill @ABCSharkTank
BarbaraCorcoran
The founder gave a very good presentation in Shark Tank and the sharks liked it very much. There was a conversation between the shark and the entrepreneur regarding the company’s performance.
The husband-and-wife team has created a unique product and many people must be using this product. Its price includes this product in the list of a premium category.
We’re following Randall Pawlik and Lisa Pawlik along with their company for further updates.
What Is VoChill Net Worth?
As of now, this VoChill worth is estimated at $6 million. This company is selling its chilling system in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada as well as on Amazon India. An estimated tax of $4.12 extra is added to each order.
The size of the wineries industry in the United States is estimated at $23.9 billion in 2022. According to some media sites, it is estimated that by 2026, the wine market size in North America will be up to $145.26 billion.
In 2023, this VoChill company has completed its 5 years and is successfully shipping products to the United States, UK, Canada, and Amazon India.
Randall & Lisa have plans to incorporate this chill system product into retail and hospitality. This husband and wife aim to make their products available at every wine lover’s home.
This Wine Chilling system has got a 4.6 rating out of 5 on Amazon India and USA and some people’s experience is not good with this product.
This thing is a total gimmick that doesn’t work at all. Have tried multiple glasses in it and none make enough proper contact with the chiller to do anything. This won’t even keep a glass of wine moderately chilled much less keep a glass actually cold or chill down a room temp glass.

Yes, VoChill is still in business as of April 2024.
