Awesome for a home bar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had our kegerator for a few weeks now and we love it. It gets to temp quickly, the directions are very easy to read and understand and the tapping part was very simple. We may end up getting longer tubing down the road as we have read it helps with keeping proper CO2 levels, but so far we are steady at 12 which pours a perfect beer.

So far , so good!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This kegerator is awesome. Keeps beer cold. If you are having issues with your foam , it could be for a number of things with your keg ... I.e. if keg is cold , too cold, if you attached the cup. too soon after traveling. If you do it the right way , you will have no issue. Also the psi keep it between 9-13 for most beers.

Love it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good comes with everything required to have draft beer. My only real reasoning for not giving it a perfect score is availability. Was only able to get this as an online purchase only and because of this the first unit came in very fast but heavily damaged. Cracked even on the door. A second one was ordered after returning the damaged unit to local store. The second unit was recieved with damages as well but not as bad and not in the front. Clearly there is a problem in shipping and handing so I contacted customer support and agreed to keep the unit to avoid having to go through the ordeal a third time. They were nice enough to give me a discount do to my troubles. Having these stocked in store would have been great.... Thanks bby for taking care of me.

2 attempts picking up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have made two attempts in picking up item at the store both times fridge arrived damaged. The lack of empathy by store employees was "oh well" let's try again. No concessions were made to have fridge delivered to my home or discount.

The kegerator has been working great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The kegerator does a great job of keeping my two kegs cold at the right temperature. Tech support could not tell what one error code that would occur when I was trying to get the kegs cool fast. Now the system has a digital readout under a plastic exscution which is fine but this summers UV rays though a window has bubbled up the plasic piece protecting the display. I bought the service agreement but after 4 hours of being bounced from one department to another and be hung up on many times, I still have no fix to my problem. I just need one part to fix the system but the system is still working fine but I am worried a spilled beer may get inside the electronics one of these days.

Great kegerator
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a great unit. This unit can hold two 1/4 size kegs. I currently have a 1/6 and a 1/4 in it. Tank fits nicely inside. Only downside that I have is one tap is extremely foamy (even after sitting for two weeks). I have a two tap regulator that I am going to use to see if it is a leak in in the connector or line. Besides that this is excellent. You can select what temperature you want the beer to be on. When the unit is on there is a slight noise but nothing like a dishwasher.

Q: QuestionIs this model incompatible with Miller and Coors kegs?
Asked by Billabong.
- A:Answer I have a 1/4 keg of Miller Lite and a 1/6th size keg of a local craft in my Insignia dual tap kegerator. It will take one 1/4 keg but not two of that size.
Answered by PProkop
Q: QuestionWill a 1/4 barrel, a 1/6 barrel and the CO2 all fit inside?
Asked by Ryan.
- A:Answer Yes, they will. Attached is an image from the manual that shows what will fit. Two 1/4 kegs won't fit, but a 1/4 with a 1/6 should. I usually have two 1/6 in mine. I have the CO2 on the outside, but it should fit inside with a 1/4 and a 1/6. Hope this helps!

Q: QuestionWhat is the temperature range in the settings in Fahrenheit? Minimum to maximum. I want to know if it would be capable of setting the temperature for the fermentation process when brewing beer. Thanks if anyone knows.
Asked by Sudzman.
- A:Answer I plan to use it for this and will have an Inkbird temperature control unit for fermenting. Plug the refrigerator power into the Inkbird and it will kick on the refrigerator until it reaches your desired temp. Once it does it cuts power to the refrigerator until it exceeds that temp again. Advanced Inkbirds have two outlets for both a heating pad and the refrigerator. On my current refrigerator the Inkbird kept my lager fermenting at 55F +/- 1F perfectly. Then when not fermenting I'll just use the refrigerator as designed.

Q: QuestionHi, I am having dificulties attaching the coupler to a petainer keg. It seems the coupler is too short,, i read that there are 2 kind of type d coupler, 19mm and 20 mm. Anybody which one this kegerator comes with?
Asked by Emmanuel.
- A:Answer You can just replace the coupler for a bigger one. Actually for comercial kegs with a d coupler a never seem a different size. But you can take your couple to any brewing store and they definitely will have a replacement for it if it’s the case.
Answered by Breezy
Q: QuestionCan you run with just one keg connected and turn off gas to tap not in use?
Asked by NjBob.
- A:Answer No. However, it is very straightforward to remove the second tap from the gas line if you plan to generally run with just a single keg. You can also leave an empty keg hooked up.
Answered by JS99
Q: QuestionWhat combination of keg sizes does it hold at the same time besides two 1/6 kegs? Can it hold a 1/4 keg (short or Slim) and a 1/6 keg? Can someone verify? Upload a picture if possible.
Asked by B33R.
- A:Answer It can hold a 1/4 slim and a 1/6 at the same time...hope this helps

Q: QuestionI assume this is smudge-proof, but I was wondering if the Black Stainless Version is scratch-resistant, also? I’ve heard of some black stainless appliances showing scratching very prominently.
Asked by Ames.
- A:Answer I have not had any issues with the finish being scratched but haven’t done anything to cause that problem yet.
