Used it for another a week now. Easy to assemble, keeps beer cold.
Good instructions for set up. I switched the plastic hose clamps for SS ones.Instructions say set the temp between 4-5. I bought a fridge thermometer and put two water bottles inside. I actually wound up lowering it to 4 because the water bottles started to freeze. The beer keg is nice and cold!!!
Delivery was prompt - 2days. Unit is double boxed - no damage. When unit is plugged in it comes up to temperature quickly - less than 2 hours. Directions are excellent and complete assembly was 30 minutes. Faucet and keg coupler are not the highest quality and the keg coupler turned out to be a problem. The unit comes with a one dial regulator - a dual dial is preferred and essential.This is not my first kegerator. My first was a fridge conversion, which I had in my garage. Unfortunately the hi…gh summer temperature in Tucson, AZ (over 100* daily) caused the fridge to work itself to almost death so I needed to get the kegerator into the house - the fridge is going to Goodwill. The fridge conversion was upgraded with a SS CO2 tank, Perlick faucet ,dual dial regulator, Micro Matic keg coupler, all of which I used in place of the new stuff. Because I didn't want to clean my Micro Matic keg coupler ( the fridge temp was approaching 60* degrees and I didn't want the torpedo keg to spoil after only 5 glasses of beer had been poured) so I didn't fool around and used the new coupler. The beer would not pour because their coupler would not completely lock into the keg so I cleaned the Micro Matic and replace their provided coupler - should have done that in the first place.With the fridge conversion, I had the CO2 tank in the fridge with no problems. Not a good idea with this unit. The CO2 tank fit easily with the torpedo keg but the pressure gauge registered near the red (indicating refill). The cold compresses the gas and gives false readings - I thought the unit wouldn't pour because the tank needed to be refilled until I weight it and found I had 2lbs gas left. The problem was the coupler but I installed the CO2 tank outside the Edgestar.Invest in a dual dial regulator.Temperature is the most important element with your kegerator. Invest in a thermometer such as the Walmart AcuRite wireless digital, which provides the exact inside temperature and allows you to dial in your Edgestar.Tip: How did I know there was gas left in my tank? When the tank was filled I weighed it and wrote the weight on the tank. The empty tank weight is stamped on the tank - TW (Tare Weight). Mines 8.5lb. The tank weighed 10.5lb so even though the gauge indicated refill I knew I had 2lb of gas left. When the tank warmed up the gauge showed gas in the tank. So far I'm happy with the purchase of the Edgestar Kc2000 and recommend it.
Beer tastes great! Loving it so far.
Simple assembly. Temp control. Casters are a bonus for moving to clean! All around great appliance.
Few years back I bought a Danby kegerator that thing lasted 3 or 4 years and stopped working and it never did keep beer cold, after I threw it out I looked online and found this one and this thing keeps beer cold I have had it so far for 5 years and its very durable I keep it in the garage and if its in the summer of winter this thing keeps on working I highly recemmend it.
This was easy to setup and the spring loaded tap is a really good innovation. Better than my last kegerator and much quieter fridge.
Cold beer on tap, what more is there to say.......
