   I’ve had my kegerator for over a month now and it works great! Only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the thermostat always says 37 degrees no matter what the temperature is, but I put a thermometer in there and that works just fine.I have to keep mine set to 32 degrees to get a 40 degree beer. Always test the temperature of the beer itself, anything over 40 degrees with most beers will always come out foamy, so KEEP THOSE KEGS COLD! There may be a 4 degrees difference between the temperature inside the kegerator and the beer itself, so you may want to keep it colder than the desired temperature. Took me forever to figure out why my first keg was always so foamy. Temperature is usually the problem 80% of the time.Setup is pretty easy although the text on the instructions was kind of small. Comes with a lot of extra parts, so dont be concerned when you hook it up and there are extra parts left over.I would also suggest getting a cleaning kit. It’s easy to clean once you get the hang of it and I bought this one which works great: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TWMGW9K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1The CO2 tank is small and some welding shops may not fill it. If this is the case, try your local paintball course. They fill mine for only $8 and it doesn’t effect the taste at all. Should last you for about 4, maybe 5 kegs, but you will waste a lot of CO2 on your first keg trying to get your pressure right. Make sure the tank is screwed on tight!The blue LED light inside is a nice touch, but honestly, i’d rather just have a brighter light so I can see the pressure gauge better in lower light. Not a big deal though.Overall a great deal for the cost. Hopefully your UPS guy doesn’t just throw it around or set it upside down. Always let it sit for 24 hours before setting it up and always let a new keg sit for at least 45 minutes before tapping it. Cheers!

   I did not like that the 2.5 gallon tank that comes with the kegerator cannot be filled by most places. After searching I found that I could buy a 5 gallon tank that fits well in the kegerator and is easy to fill by a lot of gas filling companies.Also, the 1/6 keg limitation limits the type of beers you can get for it. Blue Moon, Boulevard IPAs, Fat Tire and Michelob Ultra are about all I can find in my area. There are a couple other less known options. However, the options are acceptable. Also, with the 1/6 keg options the cost per beer is higher than if you purchased cans. I see a remarkable increase in the amount I spend on beer. Do not expect to save money on beer purchases.I did like the ease it was to assemble. The instructions made it simple. Once I worked out the tank problem it was a snap to get my beer flowing. The tap works as expected and I have not had any problems with it yet.

   Recently purchased this unit after doing some serious homework on the competition. This unit has a digital thermostat, an internal fan and a completely stainless tower / faucet from the factory which is unheard of at this price range!I wanted a small compact unit and could not be happier with my decision. The added bonus is that this kegerator will accept a 5 gallon carboy if you set it up on the shelf and support the other side hanging off. I could not find a solid answer anywhere online. Posted an image to prove it, i was thrilled. You will need to run a blow off tube because an airlock will not fit above. I am also able to fit a standard 5 gal corny keg with 5lb gas bottle without an issue. I upgraded to an Intertap SS flow control faucet and shank right from the start, however the standard setup worked perfectly when i initially tested it. I also went a 10ft beer line, did not try the included 5 footer. The temperature controller can get stuck as mentioned in many reviews, however you can cycle the F/C button to get the correct current temp which is easy. I have found that setting and forgetting has worked out perfectly for me. The insulation in the tower is not the greatest as it restricts airflow, however that is an easy fix with a bit of tinkering. The regulator has been holding pressure correctly for me so far. I may try to figure out a way to keep the tower colder to prevent foam on the first pour. Overall, very pleased with the purchase.

   I use this for home-brew, so I had to change the d-lock to pin-lock connectors but it was easy to install the tap. The CO2 tank fits well, but I used my existing regulator so I can keep the provided one for the d-lock in case I ever buy a keg when I run out of home-brew. My bigger 5-lb CO2 tank also fits with the corny keg. I did have a leak from the liquid side of my own pin-lock connector (wish I could find good ones that don’t leak) it would have been nice if the bottom of the refrigerator had a tray to catch this, but I added an aluminum pie plate under the keg. The tap and connections are tight and don’t leak. One complaint is that the valve on the CO2 tank would not close completely so after filling it at the fire supply store I had to run to the hardware store to but a ball valve to put on it to keep the gas from leaking out until I could connect it back to the regulator

   Should have read a little closer. CO2 tank comes empty but I should have expected that. Fortunately I have a friend that owns a brewery. Locating a CO2 refiller is a bit of a challenge.One other note, it came dented. Definitely could use better packing material. So far I can’t detect any internal damage. Enough complaining now :-). It was incredibly easy to install. It cooled down to 37 degrees rapidly and fits perfect in my kitchen. I think this is going to be one of my better investments

   I like the product, but unfortunately it had a dent on the door that I didn’t notice until I discarded all of the packaging, so impossible to return. I hope the manufacturer will replace the door.
