Keeps my keg at the temperature I want. Really good kegerator. Had it about a month now and it works perfectly

This is a great buy for the money. Fast shipping and well packaged. Easy assembly with clear instructions. Unfortunately I received my unit with 4 missing stainless steel machine screws. I called customer service and they promptly and politely sent replacement screws via Federal Express next day delivery. Great product and excellent seller with quality support! I currently have a 1/4 keg and a Sixtel dispensing two different brands of beer flawlessly. All components are of very good quality and I have no doubt this unit will provide me with many years of dependable service. I rated at 5 starts but would easily have given this item 10! Don't hesitate to buy!

4-of-5 stars because the temperature control isn't as tight as it could be, and the leaking keg coupler. Would have been 3 stars due to the CO2 leaking problem, but the customer service was great!I decided to purchase this make and model for several reasons. Reviews of other kegerators such as Danby and EdgeStar were commonly full of complaints about inability to get the temperature down below 40F, while beer should be stored at ~35F. Since these residential keg coolers are only modifed food fridges, that makes sense. However, the Kegco model had reviews where folks shared that they were able to get down to freezing with no problem. Second, the inner dimensions should be large enough to store any size of keg, while others will not be wide enough to store kegs from Anheuser Busch or Miller. I'm a craft beer fan so I won't probably ever touch the light beers, but I don't want my options limited. I elected for the 309SS-2 because 1) this is going to be in my house so I wanted the nice look of the stainless steel door, 2) the ease of setting the temperature on the front, 3) the double tap will allow me to have two different beers on tap using two 1/6th-barrels so I can have keg beer and variety, and last but certainly not least 4)the super-chill mode to get a new keg cold faster. The superchill was attractive because to me it implied that the compressor and cooling system were strong enough to take a heavy load for 24-hours without failing, which I found important because other brands failed under that condition.I decided not to get more expensive brands based on simple economics. Doing research in many areas, common issues with kegerators are foamyness on initial pour because the tower isn't cooled, sticking faucets, and poor temperature control. Most people were able to solve these issues by making modifications on their own. Initial foamyness on first pour = tower cooler $30-40, sticking faucets = replace with Perlick 525SS $50-60, poor temp control = external temperature monitor and control $80-100. So for another $100 bucks I can get a perfect poor every time, and if I even want tighter temperature controls I can add that too.The new unit shipped in about 10 days and was in good condition. The instructions to setup the fridge weren't great, but all you are doing is putting on four casters and then mounting the tower with the included screws. The fridge had all holes pre-drilled and treaded so all I needed was a screwdriver. The CO2 system was daunting, but that will be for any kegerator. I followed the setup instructions and ended up wasting two bottles of CO2 because one of the keg couplers was leaking. I called up BeverageFactory and one of the technical service reps guided me through identifying the leak. At this point I was VERY frustrated with losing $50 of CO2. Within an hour a customer service rep from Beverage Factory called me and asked me to send a picture of the leaking part (bubbling soapy water) and he would send out a new keg coupler, AND they are sending a new cleaning kit to compensate for some of my losses.The temperature control isn't that great. While set at 36F the fridge moves between 30 and 38 using a seperate temperature measurement and a cup of water to calibrate the indeed when the device read 31F and below that the water started to freeze, which it did. Not perfect temperature control, but I've not had any foamyness from freezing beer in the first 3 weeks of use, so I probably won't mess with it. I did make my own tower cooler by simply looking up online and following utube videos. It was easy enough and took parts from radioshack and my ace hardware helpful hardware man. Within 30 minutes the beer poored perfectly every time because the tower was now cold. I am going to order the new perlick faucets now.

I had to replace the CO2 regulator as it was absolute crap and was leaking. I had to change my CO2 4 times within a month, I tested the lines for a leak and after the fourth time determined it was the cheap regulator. Honestly, I'm not impressed with the overall product, it is a glorified refrigerator with a digital display. I am questioning the accuracy of the temperature as I have ice build up on the inside and have it set at 38 degrees. Not all of the parts were supplied either, like the hose clamps, I had to go out and buy more cause they only supplied one clamp! Now having said that, on they do have good insulation for the tap itself, although I think the lines are a not long enough for certain beers. I have Stella and Blue Moon in mine and I'm having a problem with the Blue Moon. Not sure if this was to do with the cheap regulator that they sent or the line not being long enough. I just got the new regulator, so I will see if that solves the issue.

My family and friends and I love this purchase! Definitely cut-down on the amount of money spent at the bar.Don't do the math when trying to find a break-even point between using keg beer verses bottles at home. I think the real savings comes from not going out to the neighborhood bar as much. (And no more bottles to throw out or recycle!)Takes some patience to master the art of balancing co2 pressure and temperature in order to cut-down on the foam.Keep in mind that some places that exchange CO2 canisters won't accept the red-colored co2 canister that you get with the unit so you'll need to invest approx. $100 more to get CO2 setup.In the last 4 months I've had it, we've had approx. qty 6 of the 6th barrels and 4 quarter barrels of beer so it's definitely getting a work out.Good construction. Works as advertised.Watch YouTube videos on setting it up and troubleshooting. There are many of them out there.Note: the cooler will fit the following combinations:1 quarter barrel of beer + 1 sixth barrel of beer at the same time (or)2 sixth barrels of beer at the same time (or)1 half barrel (full keg) of beer.While you might be able to get the door closed with 2 quarter barrels of beer, I wouldn't recommend it (nor is it supported by the manufacturer) because the door barely seals.Also, right out of the gate, I replaced the stock-spouts with auto-closing ones and I'm really glad I did.

I am very glad that I spent the extra money for the stainless steal, double tap, and digital thermometer. It would be a pain buying a lesser kegerator and having to replace pieces and parts to make it work. this is my first kegerator and I couldnt be happier. It works perfectly and is very easy to use. Don't buy the cheap ones that cost $350-$400. You will regret it. Go for the bigger better version and you wont be sorry.
