24" Wide Single Tap Black Digital Kegerator Reviews

09/27/2024

My first kegerator. Loving it.

09/20/2024

Discovered Beverage Factory with our first kegerator purchase four years ago. Time and again the BevFac pros answered our newbie questions, analyzed multiple coupler and two keg options, and patiently guided us without any sales pressure. When it came time to order another unit we went straight to Beverage Factory and got a great system with several upgrades from our previous unit. These folks are pros - plain and simple - and if you're serious about beer at your place they are indispensable teammates and advisors.

It’s great

Love our new Kegerator…works great. Make sure you get CO2 even for domestic beers

01/19/2024

It came in on time and vary good condition. Easy set up ,co2 says set between 10 and 13 to much fome set at 8 and after 2 days of use moved it up to 9 and than moved to 10 2 more days later. I would recommend it it and I would buy it again

This was a Christmas gift for my husband. It was easy to put together and the kegerator really chills the beer to a perfect temperature. My husband loves it.

12/20/2023

I love the temp control soo I ferment with temp at the right set, then the deep chill has been really good for getting the kegs ready!

Easy setup, everything is high quality, and everything you need to start pouring ice cold beer. My neighbors already love coming over and drinking my beer. Just note, where it comes with a CO2 tank its not filled. Just go get one that's filled or go to a filling station to fill it. Google one by you.

08/23/2023

Just love it! Easy setup, great quality and first class digital controls.

04/20/2023

This thing is great. It has a bunch of little features my old kegerator didn't have that make it so much better. It's definitely colder than my last one also.

03/18/2023

I always wanted a kegerator and now I have one and absolutely love it! It was very easy to set up. The only regret is upgrading to the red CO2 tank but in my area no one fills tanks, only exchanges. So I ended up losing my new tank. No worries though since it was only a $5 upgrade and since my tank is installed inside you can't see it anyway.

01/13/2023

wish it was bigger and could hold 3 1/6 barrels

12/28/2022

This Kegerator is amazing. I checked the temperature with a calibrated thermometer to ensure accuracy of the digital readout. It was spot on! It looks beautiful in my man cave. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because from the start I had to buy a longer beer hose (5 feet is too short for most applications/people) and a tower cooler. Neither of these items are expensive and I am shocked they were not included. I would also recommend buying a different regulator because trying to dial in 12-14 psi on an 80 psi scale can be difficult.

08/29/2021

I decided to purchase a proper kegerator. My previous one is one that I made and has served me well for 10 plus years. Still runs great. Why did I buy a new one? Space!! I could get 2 corney kegs in my old one comfortably. I could shove 2 sanke kegs in once I cut the front door interior to be flat. This new one allows me to fit a quarter barrel as well as a sixthteel at one time. Of course I can also fit a half barrel now if I want. The unit is nice. I enjoy the black stainless on the door. I like the temp readout so I know what I set it to. I haven’t needed to use the deep chill function. It was cold inside a half hour and my kegs going in were already cold. My chrome rail did come damaged but they replaced it promptly without question. The fan is a bit loud. Maybe it’s just my unit. Not unbearable just a bit louder than I’d like. Maybe some isolation rubber between the fan would make it quiet? All in all I’m happy. Showed up fast. All the boxes were in great shape. Short of the chrome rail coming loose from the tape inside the kegerator everything was in tip top shape.

I just received this kegerator yesterday. It arrived in great shape! I was able to get it set up quickly, got the CO2 tank filled, and I’m in business. Everything worked well but I had to make a couple minor adjustments.

The fan was making a noise and it was a simple fix. The blades were rubbing the wire that powers the fan. Probably got shaken into the wrong place in shipping. Quick fix and no big deal.

The exit valve of the regulator leaked when I initially set it up. I was able to remove this valve, apply some additional thread sealant, and tighten it back up eliminating the leak.

Even with these small issues, I still give this unit 5 stars. It is important to remember that this is actually a fairly complicated mechanical system. As long as you temper your expectations and are prepared and capable to make any such minor adjustments, this unit will be perfect!

I recommend bundling it with the cleaning kit. Prior to initial beer set up, the cleaning kit allowed me to run warm water through the beer tap line to make sure it’s clean. Plus, I know it will make switching kegs and the recommended cleaning a breeze.

Looking forward to enjoying a lot of draft beer!

This is my third beer machine I have owned in the last 25 years, and it's a good one. A slight step up from my last one, which lasted me 10 years. Very happy with the Kegerator itself, it is a quality machine at a good price. But your instructions are non-existent. I didn't want to screw anything up for fear of invalidating a warranty, but you get a bunch of boxes and nothing that tells you what to do when? And there are spare parts for alternative installations, but nothing that tells you that. There is a good video on YouTube, but as I am not 23 I don't spend my life watching videos, but I did think to check. Put a big note in the box with a link to the video.

And the delivery information is bogus. I was told when the product left your facility that it would arrive May 12 by 5:00 pm. When I had not heard anything mid-day the 13th, I called the trucking company. They informed the 12th was not the delivery date (silly me), that's just when it arrived at the local station. I had to schedule a delivery. That went fine when I finally got it 4 days later.

Again - great machine - but if you really want to take the whole experience to the next level - fix these little issues. They matter.

I finally replaced the chest freezer I have been using for a Kegerator with this beauty. It’s quiet, has a small footprint and exactly what I needed. Since I usually have a Nitro Stout and ales/lagers, it’s nice to be able to have the room in the kegerator for the CO2 tank and a port on the back to hook up the Nitrogen tank.

08/22/2019

Simply stated, this is a terrific product, so good in fact, we now own two.We customized our second digital dual tap unit by wrapping it in a black stainless cabinet,adding a custom dual gas system (CO2 and Nitrogen Mix), and lastly upgraded the keg connectors to the cool ergonomic flat ones. This keg cooler works better than described, pours perfect beet every time. We set the unit for 33 degrees and the beer pours with a perfect head and a minimum of foam (unlike the Brand X model I purchased several years back.) With all of the craft beer choices our there, why limit yourself to one tap? This keg cooler delivers beer a cut above going out to the local pub, which likely does not deliver beer as cold as this kegerator does, and may not taste as fresh due to unknown line cleaning practices. There is extra room inside to keep your mugs cold even with the kegs and gas bottle inside.

Best of all, Beverage Factory customer service is best in class, if you ever have any questions about beer systems in general, ask Mo who is the most knowledgeable beer craftsperson I have spoken with and his sales manager Nick is top shelf.

07/17/2019

Great kegerator at a fantastic price. Like the way I can customize my kegerator during ordering process. Transportation and delivery were great except that when I tracked my kegerator, the site said "delivery" on a certain date. I called Beverage Factory customer service when it was not delivered. I was told the "delivery date" was to the terminal, not my residence address. Nothing on the tracking site described delivery that way. This is the only reason for 4 stars. Otherwise, I will definitely purchase again from Beverage Factory for all of my kegerator/draft beer needs.

07/10/2019

Home use, fit and finish top notch, TERRIFIC digital display, awesome customer service.

I am getting to a place where it is now working well. I had a Kenmore for 18 years, it just died so I ordered this model for the digital thermometer and dual tap. I have had problems with the Kenmore as well, takes a bit to dial it in, then when it was dialed in , no problems. Same here, the kenmore would run at 4-5 psi, this one runs higher. First of all, it was easy to assemble, no issues. I do agree with many that the the compression clamps on the lines are cheap and too small for the lines, really had to crank on them with a wrench to even get them to lock. Big issue I think is with the Elite Series Dual Gauge Two Product CO2 Draft Beer Regulator, the two nipples are too close together, really had to jerry rig that to get it to work. I am in product development and if the designers even tried to install with normal CO2 canister available in beer distributors they would have made changes. Lastly, the cool down setting, they do not really tell you but you need to turn this off, it does not shot off itself when hitting your normal temp target, I froze the lines. Great feature, would be better if it shut off when temp got to last setting or blinked or something.
Now that I got the temp and CO2 set up correctly it is running beautifully. I highly recommend getting the two tap, nice to have a light and IPA together or if I want to add birch beer for the kids I can. You definitely can get the tall 1/4 and a sixtle in the kegorator.
Lastly, beverage factory has been awesome to work with with my order and talking me through some issues. I don't usually write reviews but think this is important, a difficult purchase on line, and I do know my stuff when it comes to kegorators.

06/20/2019

I liked being able to pick different configurations and only order what I needed. I had a kegerator that died, so I didn't need a complete set up. I got to upgrade a few things since I didn't need everything. The shipping was smooth and arrived on time and no damage. Easy set up and I'm happy so far.

06/12/2019

This beautiful creature keeps my beer cold, tasty, and flowing. Now I just need to make more money to support my beer habit.

03/27/2019

This unit was a birthday gift/upgrade for my older kegerator. I am most pleased with the the temperature control and the metal skid plate on the floor of the unit.

03/27/2019

We love this product very easy to put together and works great

02/26/2019

Bought this to replace an old fridge Kegerator that was use out on our Lini.. The old one I couldnt get the beer any colder than 38-40 or so. This unit is also on our lini in Fl an temps been in the high 80’s- low 90’s. not only is it smaller than a big old fridge but looks great an so far ive had it for a week the beer is coming out supper cold. I have the kegerator set at 35 degress an my thermometor in kegerator is at about 34. Shippping was good took about a week an half from Ca to Fl.
I did do a lot of reading on this unit before buying it. The only concern i had before buying it was other people saying they had foaming issues.. Do to the Tower warming up an beer getn warm in tower. But I can tell Ya i dont have foaming issues but i did a mod to it right off the bat. I took a 1/2 in copper pipe an ran my beer line in it an up to the top of tower an down in kegerator about 4in. Then sprayed spray foam all around it inside of tower.. thus when the copper cools the beer lines stay cool. I can say a cheap fix for a great beer poor. All around very happy with the kegerator.

The new Kegco unit has worked flawlessly over the past couple of weeks. It holds a constant temperature, runs quietly. The appearance is excellent.

I use the kegerator for 3 5-gallon kegs. Currently 2 home brew kegs and 1 purchased commercial lager that I don't have the equipment to brew efficiently.

The customer service was also excellent as I chose the tower, faucets, and other attachments. I didn't feel pressured to add, but rather a high level of confidence that I was getting the best equipment that I needed and not more.

06/22/2018

Unit was delivered about a week after ordering with no issues. Put everything together and it looks nice. Set it to super cool then to 33F. Unit was quiet, tho you can tell it's running. I have a remote temperature unit that is quite accurate and placed it on top the 15.5 gal keg. It never went below 41F. Huh?

Obsevation: The installed fan only runs when the compressor runs and is weak. It does not provide even cooling. Bottom of keg was 33F and top of keg 41F. I installed a 90mm computer case fan in the lower left aimed up and toward the door. Set temp at 35F and top of keg now is 35-37C. When it auto defrosts temp goes to 46F then back down rather quickly.
Anyone with basic handyman skills can do the fan mod. I had the fan and transformer laying around as I work on computers. Did not give 5 stars due to weak fan that made me have to install my own fan.

My wife and I started home brewing a year ago and found that our new hobby turned into a passion. We bottled our first eight or ten batches and then took a kegging class. We were warned that once we start kegging our beer we'll likely never go back to bottling. A trip to one of the big box stores resulted in bringing home a starter kegerator. We first used it to lager our Oktoberfest, then to dispense it at Thanksgiving. We were hooked on how easy it was compared to bottling. The starter unit only had one tap. We could squeeze a second 5 gallon keg in there but had to use a picnic tap to drink from it. We were at a decision point, whether to build a keezer or find a kegerator that could serve multiple kegs. We found the triple tap homebrew kegerator at Beverage Factory. The price was reasonable and the unit fit in the same spot as our starter kegerator so we bought it. The first box that we received had some damage from a fork lift. I called Beverage Factory and they were super helpful. After sending pictures of the damage they immediately sent out a new unit. We couldn't be happier with the kegerator. It easily fits three kegs with space to spare. The instructions were complete and the assembly was easy. This is a very high quality quiet running system. We look forward to having it serve us for many years.

Great keg cooler and tap system. Well worth the money.

02/06/2018

I am 100% happy with this purchase. I bought it for my garage and used it for Super Bowl and have used it after work for the last 2 days. I \"upgraded\" to a 14.5\" tower, commercial grade dual regulator and Perlick 650SS Flow Control (I like this with the knob and dialed it in with 3 pours).

For the money, it is perfect. If you are a beer snob, get a $2,000 unit or better.

I researched for about 2 hours and below is the bad.

1. It is easy to assembly, but there are no directions.
2. I think you need to have a tower cooler for no foam. Why would they not build a tower cooler into it? I picked one up and turn it on 10 minutes before I use it and works great.
3. I have the temp set to 32, but only getting about 36 inside the fridge and 36 beer temperature from pours.
4. The gauge for the CO2 is crap. If your average is around 10 psi and around 20 psi on the high end for specialty beers, why would you have a 80 psi gauge that is hard to dial in for the number you want?
5. 2 cheesy-POS plastic clips to connect the CO2 lines, a quick trip to Home Depot solves this.

Hope this helps with your decission

I am a homebrewer and got this to start kegging. It was straight forward to assemble and setup. The tower lines are by default setup for commercial kegs, so the hardest part of setup was cutting off the ends and getting the lines on the new connectors. While I had to soak in hot water due to a tight fit this wasn't that hard.
Got co2 and kegged my first beer and was set to go. Everything works great

11/01/2017

Having recently gotten back into homebrew, getting this kegerator was the next step. I have the 3 faucet tap. First, this came well packed on a small wooden palette and boxed up. Unpacking was easy. Putting castors on was a cinch too. The Perlick 650ss with flow control are very nice. The brushed ss tower looks very nice and doesn't show any fingerprints. I added a tower fan and that is about the only noise I hear. No pops or anything like other brands have. It is very well built, I especially like the steel plate on the floor. Time will tell on how it holds up to the damp environment. As I said in another review, the gas tubing is a bit soft for my needs as I like worm gear tube clamps and mfl adapters, which didn't give a good seal. I would have paid for an upgrade to this, but I replaced it with the 3rd party brand at minimal cost, so all's well. Right now I have homebrew keg and a sankey with Highland Gaelic Ale. 3 batches in carboys now, so will add a third. Love that option. So far, absolutely no regrets on this purchase.

10/21/2017

Just unpacked and set it up. Looks Great! All parts fit perfectly and seem to be very good quality. Runs Quietly. First keg is cooling down right now. Customer service was superb and one phone call answered all my questions/concerns and even completed the order process for me without going back to the on-line order system. Shipped out promptly but it took a while in transit due to the distance. Packaging was well done and everything arrived in perfect condition. Highly recommend this to anyone. One of the best purchases I've made on line.

09/04/2017

This is a great entry unit into home brewing keg dispensing! Works fantastic. Family, friends, and neighbors are all amazed with being able to get beer dispensed from a keg at my house instead of being handed a bottle of beer. Another benefit will be able to control my fermentation temperatures, and being able to now do lager beers. I also can't overstate how well packaged everything came. Looking forward to many years of use.

06/15/2017

TL;DR: The Perlick 650SS flow control faucets will fit on the homebrew package upgraded SS tower, and the BevFactory's customer service is out of this world.

So, I'm only in my first week of having the kegerator set up, but everything seems to be working fine.

But it's the Beverage Factory Customer Service I want to tell you about. Their sales folks were extremely knowledgeable and helpful when I ordered the unit, and all the upgrades I added to it / changed on it. But they got one thing wrong, and told me the Perlick 650SS flow control faucets wouldn't work on the homebrew package's upgraded triple SS tower. So I got 630SS faucets.

When I was assembling it, I could see that the 650SS faucets would fit just fine with this tower, so I called them and they were super-cool about it. They apologized several times (I wasn't asking for an apology, nor was I upset, but it they were extremely curteous and helpful, and even offered an apology from my original sales rep).

Their tech support person said she'd go and assemble a triple tower with the 650SS faucets and would call me back. In 20 minutes she called me back and told me they do work, and went to great lengths to remedy my situation. I'm not going to get into specifics, but they were very generous in helping facilitate the exchange.

I will be recommending Beverage Factory to anyone wanting to buy a kegerator or other beer equipment, and I'll be checking with them before I shop anywhere else.

06/12/2017

Worth every penny. Quality Refer unit and Tap components. Pours beautifully. I upgraded my regulator, tap, tower and coupler one level and only paid the price difference. My only mistake was going with a single tap unit... now I want a double!

06/07/2017

Originally selected model was on back order; Beverage Factory representative called to discussed options and was able to upgrade to digital display model for same price. Product arrived safely and setup was swift and painless. Only issue was with the ball lock liquid out adapter, which was somehow missing the piece which allows liquid to flow. Contacted Beverage Factory, and had a new one in my hand in a few days.

05/22/2017

After the first 5 days of use, I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. The unit was well packaged and in perfect condition. All the needed parts were there and went together flawlessly. Because I had to move it up to my summer home on its back, I waited 24 hours before plugging it in. Loaded up three corny kegs I had kept on ice, adjusted the pressure (9 lbs.), and it was serving wonderful, cold, nicely carbonated home brew in no time. It runs very quietly and holds the temperature and pressure spot on. I have to do a little keg juggling to get the three boys nice and comfy, but they do fit, and the small footprint is a nice feature.

04/04/2017

Let's just hope I don't have to buy soon

03/30/2017

Great product. Extremely quiet for a living room apartment. Cooled down very quickly and the digital thermostat is very accurate.

01/27/2017

After receiving the kegerator, I started right in on the assembly of it. No damage physical damage and all parts seemed to be there. Because I had order the Homebrewer\'s version of this item. They ship me the the commercial keg setup and sent a homebrewer\'s kit to change out the CO2 and service lines connectors. No problem! Now I have the 3 faucet set up to accept 2 homebrewer\'s (Cornelius keg)keg and one commercial keg. I made the wife happy! Only problem is that one the screw holders for the tower was lose so I was not able to tighten it. I glued is down in place and finished the assembly the next day. Also the unit is louder than I expected. While in the den I can hear it running in the kitchen. Otherwise, they would have received a 5-star rating on this product.

01/21/2017

Have been using the kegerator for just a week, so far so good. It has a very large capacity, fits 3 cornys as shown with no problem. Love how it comes with everything needed to get going, just have the C02 tank filled and you're all set.

I upgraded the faucets to Perlicks I would highly recommend that, the extra cost is worth it down the road.

12/23/2016

Ive had my Kegco HBK309s-3k for a week now and have been very pleased with its performance. The instructions that came with the unit and beer tower were easy to follow even for a non handy person like myself. It has done a great job of keeping my christmas ale I brewed at a consistent temperature . The gas regulator is easy to dial your co2 pressure to just the right psi for a perfect pour of beer pour after pour. I love the fact that it has a very large temperature range with a digital read out so that you can use it to ferment beers and it has shelves so you can use it as a refrigerator as well. So far I've been very pleased and am looking forward to using it to try and lager a Ocktoberfest beer next year.

COLD COLD BEER

11/25/2016

Super impressed with the company. They walked me through everything I needed to know before I bought. Cary was amazing. He got me all the things I needed.

Shipping was on time and came in perfect shape. Very little to put together

The kegerator has upgraded perlick faucets. Worth the cost. Hold temp very well and quiet. I would recommend the kegerator and the company

10/20/2016

We got this kegerator to hold two commercial and one homebrew keg. Works perfectly. The digital temperature display is great. And the option to store the CO2 tank in the back is a good feature. Everything was delivered quickly and packaged smartly.

10/06/2016

Great product for the beer lover that I am

10/04/2016

Compared to my previous DIY single tap Kegerator this one is of commercial build quality. The two Corny kegs that came with it are brand new ball locks, hard to find other than as reconditioned. The digital controls are unique as is the ability to reach 34F and this one has an auto defrost feature unavailable to DIY upgrading a mini fridge with an external temp. controller..

The only thing missing is that the digital display only shows the chosen preset temp but doesnt show the actual internal temp. Such an easy upgrade for the factory with an extra switch position. Adding another temp sensor after market would mean risking an air leak by bringing in the sensor cable. Doable as DIY but risky.

08/16/2016

Very nice. I was impressed with the design and ease of set up. The tower attachment was solid and easy to install. I liked the removable plug for conversion back to a fridge. The digital display was a plus. The temp seems to be accurate.The regulator has issues with leaky CO2 valves, which is why I gave it a 4 star.
Just what I expected and much nicer than hacking up a fridge to make a kegerator.

08/04/2016

This is a great looking dual faucet kegerator. The unit arrived well packaged and included some great free upgrades. The instructions were not of much help but I didn't have any issues assembling the unit.
The main reason I chose this particular model was that it was digitally controlled and included an internal fan. However the capabilities of Kegco's digital controller are just woeful. I have built my own kegerator before where the digital control I used maintained the temperature within 2 degrees, retained all of my settings after a power outage and gave me a real time read out of the actual internal temperature.
Kegco's digital controller falls short on on those features:
1. The unit will not retain the last temperature and unit settings upon a power outage. It reverts back to 5c even though I had set it to 38F.
2. The fan should run continuously to prevent cold stratification. In this design, the digital controller controls this and it shuts off when the compressor shuts off.
3. The internal temperature swings from my preset of 38F down to 30F (Too much overshoot by the controller or because the fan is off?)
4: The digital display has no capability of displaying the actual kegerator temperature.
My recommendation is to save $90 and buy the kegerator with the manual thermostat and add your own digital control.

07/23/2016

Got this as a birthday gift and it works great! The people at Beverage Factory are more then helpful. Mine arrived with damage to the wire cage in the back, sent them pictures of the damage sent out new part and gave me $50 credit. I would definitely buy from these guys again. The only problem I had was finding a place to fill the co2 tank,I also recommend getting the duel gauge regulator.

07/04/2016

I have had a keezer for a few years and due to the inconsistent temperatures, I decided to buy a true kegerator. I did a lot of research and I knew I wanted a full sized CO2 tank and enough space for 3-kegs. I home brew. This unit was very easy to put together because I knew the workings of my keezer. This unit is SOLID! I was so glad I went with the Kegco brand. Per my research, they tend to last much longer than their competitors.

06/28/2016

Purchased this model one year ago and couldn't be happier. Upgraded to the polished SS tower w/the Perlick valve, and dual regulator. This has been a remarkable upgrade to my previous Visani kegerator(a piece of junk BTW). Unit is extremely quiet. I only wish that the Beverage Factory offered a stainless steel drip tray as an option. Other than that, a perfect piece of equipment. I'm a happy camper.

05/14/2016

Just like every one said works very well for the money had it for two years no problems just do not freezer your beer like i did at first.

04/25/2016

I've had this kegerator for almost two years, purchased direct from the Beverage Factory. I'm completely satisfied with the product - it's functional, has room to spare inside (I use two corny kegs at a time), and the fit and finish is of good quality.

I've spilled plenty of beer on the top, and some down the front. Cleanup is easy, and I've never had any problems with the electronics. It's great to be able to fine tune the temperature, I keep mine at 38 degrees,

When home brewing, I'll typically cold crash a 5 or 6.5 gallon carboy inside, although I need to remove one keg to do so.

I highly recommend the Perlick faucets as an upgrade, they're awesome.

Enjoy!

03/22/2016

I bought this to replace a 25 plus year old kegerator that I had. The old one made tons of noise, was always running, knocking, and ate electricity.

Upon receiving the new one I did a thorough inspection and was happy to find the unit in perfect condition. I know people who have ordered from other stores and had horror stories about damage and customer service.

Set up took me about 1 hour and 20 minutes. That time included disconnecting the old one swapping the old coupler, faucet, and tank that I was keeping and moving it out of the house.

Currently I have the temp set at 36F and the cheap thermometer that I bought is reading 32 inside so I am perfectly happy. I upgraded to the dual gauge premium and and am very happy with it compared to the previous piece of junk that I had.

If you are like me you are researching kegerators until your brain hurts and leery of picking one. Take the plunge and purchase this model and you will be very happy.

01/31/2016

Very easy to setup and looks fantastic...My only knock is mine is set at 32 and beer could stand to be a bit colder. Unfortunately 32 is the lowest setting.

01/28/2016

Like most on here I spent countless hours researching kegerators. Luckily, I found this website from a review on Amazon. This kegerator is awesome! if the digital readout says 33 degrees then the beer temp will be that. The only thing I changed was the perlick faucet upgrade with stainless steel tower. I built my own tower cooler which sorry to say is a necessity if you don't want your first pour to be half foam. I keep my Co2 at about 3 PSI and that seems to be the perfect pour. I got a wooden tap handle from Amazon with interchangeable labels for $20 and its the perfect addition to this awesome kegerator.

01/14/2016

First off this is my second kegerator from beverage factory. My first one was a Danby and it was great over 10yrs before it died. The ordering process was great. The shipping was great fast and the truck driver was professional and very helpful. kegco packs there kegerator with overkill to prevent damage. Now it has only been a few days since i have been using it and its everything as described. Now there was one thing and it was the noise! When i plugged it in the kegerator made an annoying noise that most reviews have mentioned and instructions say is normal? The problem is the fan inside. open the door and you can here it coming from the fan. To fix there are 2 white caps on the fan,take a small screw driver or tip of a knife and pop them out. Then take a phillips screw driver and while the unit is on and the fan is running turn the top screw 2 times to the left to loosen the screw and same for bottom screw. Keep doing this and the noise will stop. The problem is when they built the kegerator they over tighten the screws on the fan cover. So when the fan is on it was hitting the plastic cover slightly. That is the awful noise. After you back out the screws the kegerator is super quiet!! I will update this review in a few months to see if its continuing to perform? I hope this review was helpful. The only bad thing was this unit went on sale the next day and I paid $35 more :(

Easy to set up. Very quiet when plugged in. Bought for my husband for Christmas, and he loves it. The fan inside blows the air around and keep the temp more even inside. Would recommend to anyone wanting a kegerator. Very professional looking.

This unit is incredible. I've had it for a year and a half, no problems except one of the faucet attachments is a little loose. Tried a few times to go down into the top of faucet stem to tighten it, but haven't been able to get down there. It really doesn't pose a problem, it just bugs me. I clean the lines after each keg. It will fit one commercial 1/6 barrel and 2 homebrew kegs. Easy to put together. Go on, treat yourself.

11/25/2015

Continued from above. Unit is very quiet and attractive. Arrived quickly, complete and in perfect condition. The regulator was back ordered but arrived in a few days. I wasn't quite ready for it anyway.

11/05/2015

It is so neat looking and it really wasn't that harad to put together.

09/01/2015

I wanted to start kegging my home brew, and I was initially set to buy this exact model, but a sales guy at my local home brew store initially talked me out of it, and recommended going the home build route. Well, I did that, and a month later I bought this. Although the home route worked, I had issues keeping the door sealed after having to remove all the plastic shelves, and then to my dismay, I had enough vertical space for a sixtel keg and my homebrew keg, but the sixtel is just enough larger that I couldn't fit two kegs in my kegerator. I had been very careful about which fridge I bought based on the need for two kegs. Well, I learned my lesson, and the Kegco kegerator was in my living room a few short weeks later. It fits my homebrew keg, my sixtel of Sam Adam's Oktoberfest, and a six pack to boot.

This kegerator is very well done. The recirculating keeps the air moving, and the tower cold, so when the beer dispenses, I'm not getting all foam. I had to buy a fan with a hose for my old kegerator to keep it chilled, and it was sort of loud. Silence with the Kegco. The mounting bracket keeps my CO2 tank in place on the inside, as well as the option to put it on the back. The digital thermostat keeps the temperature spot on, without the need for an external temperature controller, that I had on my old kegerator. With all the add ons I had to do with my old kegerator, I believe I would have saved money on the Kegco, had I bought it to begin with.

My only complaint is that I wish there was an option for a stainless drip tray. If the tray could be swapped out (which, I'm sure Kegco could make available), I'd be giving it 5 stars all day long. Right now, It's about a 4 3/4 stars.

08/26/2015

I purchased the Kegco K309SS-3 kegerator so I could use it for my home brew and commercial beer. I had been using a converted refrigerator/kegerator for 5+ years and this is an excellent upgrade. I have had this since May 2015 and waited before writing the review until I had some time using it. The ordering process was simple and it’s worth noting that it’s shipped by a trucking company not UPS/FedEx. It was shipped on a pallet and moved easily through my doorways on a dolly. It arrived with no damage. I let it sit overnight before starting assembly.

It was easy to assemble and I had a Cornelius keg ready to go from my now old kegerator. So within a couple of hours I was drinking out of this new kegerator. What might have made it easy for me to build was having converted a fridge to one before, and having read the instructions while I was waiting for it in transit. A few weeks later I bought a 1/4 slim keg and put it in with the Cornelius keg, and they fit just fine.

It’s in my basement and looks nice, and runs quiet. The controls are nice and easy to use. When filling a growler I spilled into the drip tray. The drip tray and the top of the kegerator are easy to clean. If not used for a few days the tap does stick a little, causing you to either drink more frequently or just work a little harder for the first beer. I am impressed with this and would recommend it for any home brewer or beer fan.

Can't tell you how happy I am with their service.
Had an old Sanyo that took a dump one evening and phoned them up in the morning. They are totally helpful, and the fella I spoke to said he would get the order rolling immediately. Well, that he did. I had my new Kegco in THREE days.
I was totally impressed.
The unit is good looking and it does get cold, real cold. Mine is in my garage in CA where it averages about 85 to 90 outside and this bad boy keeps my beer @ 35 degs. Had it on the deep chill cycle and it got down to 28 degs. and froze the beer in the line. Got the extra stainless tower with Perrlick tap and my beer flows like honey.
Keep up the good work Beverage Factory...

06/10/2015

After reading the reviews here I decided to purchase this unit. Delivery went well, except that the delivery driver wouldn't stay until I had checked everything over for damage (even though the Beverage Factory instructions were very clear that the driver was required to do so). Luckily no damage was found and so I started putting everything together.

I had decided to upgrade to the Perlick 650SS faucets with flow control, and to my dismay once I installed them on the tower it was clear that there was very little room available to adjust the flow control because the 3 faucets were crammed so close together. I decided not to struggle with it and instead called Beverage Factory to arrange return of the tower that comes with this unit in exchange for the T-style tower (item TTOW-3F-SS). I figured the design of the T-style tower would work better with the 650SS faucets, and I was right. I still wish the faucets were placed about an inch further apart from one another on the TTOW-3F-SS, because that would allow more room for wider tap handles. There's certainly plenty of space available to have done this, so I'm not sure why the manufacturer didn't make better use of that space? But I can live with it as-is.

One other downside to the T-style tower is that it's not insulated at all. The tower that comes with this unit had thick felt insulation inside, so I'm not sure how that was overlooked on the T-style tower? I may need to carve out some styrofoam blocks and use them to fill the empty space in the TTOW-3F-SS, or maybe stuff some felt padding in there to provide the missing insulation.

Other than that, this kegerator runs very quietly, so much so that I sometimes have to check to see if it's still running! I put it in our dining room so that it wouldn't both us if it became noisy, but it's been very quiet so far. After 6 months everything still works great. And I love the digital controls that tell me the settings at a glance!

Only other points to mention are that the included hose clamps are cheap plastic; do yourself a favor and get a set of stainless steel earless clamps, to more securely attach your hoses to the keg connectors and your regulator. Also, the chill plate on the back wall of this kegerator gets very cold, so keep your beer lines away from it or else they'll freeze solid! One of mine did just that, and I couldn't figure out why nothing was dispensing!

All in all I'd say this is a well-made appliance and customer service was very good about handling my tower exchange. Recommended!

Hello Paul, thank you for your response and we are really glad to hear you have a had a good experience. Excellent choice in regards to the Perlick faucets and you are correct about the triple faucet tower not having enough space for that particular faucet. In reference to the insulating of the T-style tower I would use plumbers insulation inside that tower. Much thicker. Thanks again and we look forward to hearing from you in the future.

got the cooler and was very easy to set up. it is nice looking and really keeps the beer cold. there is absolutely no noise coming from it. very, very quiet. I would highly recommend this item.

02/09/2015

This Kegco Kegerator and Beverage Factory are great! Everything came exactly as they said it would without any damage. The digital temperature controls are excellent. We bought the Perlick upgrade and it also works great! We are set now, drinking craft beer from our local brewery. The price is right and we do not have bunches of empty bottles to deal with anymore. Thank you!

01/13/2015

no problems, as advertised. Keeps beer cold 34'.

01/13/2015

Received this from my wife as a Christmas gift. Product is of much better quality than some I have seen at the big box stores. I upgraded the faucet and beer tap handle. It was easy to put together and cools well and operates quietly. Beverage Factory was great. This thing shipped quickly (although the faucet was back ordered) and in perfect condition. All in all, I couldn't be happier with the unit.

01/05/2015

Great product, serving three beers. Well suited for three corny kegs.

Gas manifold lacks check valves so I used one I already had from my previous fridge. Similarly I already had Perlick's which are a must if you don't drink three type of beer/day, worth the upgrade price.

12/19/2014

I've had my kegerator for a couple of months, and it's great. 3 upgraded Perlick taps, polished SS tower, and dual valve regulator upgrades. Works like a charm. Well build, looks good. Nice touch having removable inset drip tray (although an option to Stainless would have been nice. The only problem (& it's not the manufacturer's fault) is that with 2 beers & a cider on tap, you tend to drink them, & that means that kegs run dry, so you have an empty tap until you brew more. I've solved that problem by having an extra keg all filled & ready to go. Now I can rotate my beers (after rinsing out the beer lines first) for variety. Now I'm in the process of carving my first custom tap handle (expect to have one for each of my brews)!

12/08/2014

A great machine. Big enough for three home kegs to allow different types of beer to be served. I did a lot of research and believe that this is the best machine for the money. The stanless door is a very low price addition too and adds a lot to the look. Consider upgrading to Perlic faucets they will not stick. Also consider paying a bit more for n upgraded regulator, it's a good investment. I added a pair of low pressure regulators so I can have three kegs all at different pressures. Good to be able to keep higher pressure to carbonate, then drop to pour.

11/26/2014

I've had this kegerator now for several months. I homebrew so it was my first move to kegging after brewing for 4 years. Very happy I went with this model. The digital temp set is great to have, why use a dial that just marks colder and warmer? Being it has such a large temp range I also used it at first when I got it as a fermentation chamber to keep my fermenter (Pumpkin Ale) cool and fermenting at 62 degrees. I swapped out the faucets to Perlick before using them since I didn't want to ever deal with a stuck faucet, they too have been working great. This unit is fairly quiet and has a fan that kicks in occasionally, it doesn't always run. It would be nice if there was a way to set the fan to always running to keep the air circulating but oh well. I haven't cooled my tower but I don't get foamy pours so I'm not going to bother to install a tower cooler. I went with the Taprite three-product secondary regular and it sits inside on its side (vertically) and with three kegs in there it all fits. Anyhow, I highly recommend this kegerator.

11/18/2014

As a homebrewer, I needed a way to keep my kegs cool. For over nine months, I was not content with the results I found in Craigslist for used kegerators at high prices with just one faucet and no accessories. This kegerator has it all, the space for 3 pinlock kegs, a CO2 tank--all the goodies you need. Assembling was easy. Still debating in keeping the CO2 tank inside or out. Cooler the CO2 tank, less pressure. Only thing thats is of verrry minor issue is the digital numbers cannot be dimmed--at night, but thats fine.

10/17/2014

Spend the extra bucks and get this one! The lines are first qulaity and the hardware is first rate. I had a couple issues with the plastic clamps supplied so you might want metal line clamps to be sure. Works well and does fit three cornelius kegs, barely! I am retro fitting mine with the Perlick faucets that have a "creamer" function. Don't bother with the dual gauge manifold as CO2 is in a liquid state and you won't know when you are getting low on gas until just before it happens.Nice metal floor and the digital controls work fine. Get one!

10/11/2014

Delivery was fast and the unit was easy to set up. Cold beer now on tap!

09/22/2014

First - shipping was excellent. Don't underestimate this. I sent back two slightly cheaper kegerators from another company that ships F*dEx. Both got damaged. This one shipped on a pallet and was delivered to my garage door by a local shipping company. Easily worth the cost of shipping.

Second - the unit is quiet, cold and well built. Did I mention quiet? Here's where the few additional bucks really shows. The original, cheaper, kegerator was so noisy that the Mfg. sells an insulation plate that you must buy and install behind the refrigeration plate in the back of the unit. Really?

Third - The built-in fan in the back of the unit distributes are throughout. Plenty of space, even with multiple beer & CO2 lines.

This unit is a winner, especially with the ability to customize so many options.

09/16/2014

I have the 3 tap version and I keep 2 homebrew ball locks & one commercial sixtel on tap. Easy to assemble. Keeps a great steady temp that is exactly the temperature it says it is (I've measured). Fits the 3 kegs and 5 lbs CO2 easily, plenty of room. Love this thing, if you are on the fence...do it. You will not regret this. heavy duty wheels on it to move it if you need. the only thing I would upgrade if I could would be a metal drip tray. Get the Perlick taps as well, you won't be sorry. They eliminate stuck taps by being self sealing.

09/03/2014

I absolutely LOVE this kegerator. Setup was easy and all the parts were easily identified even to a novice. The refrigerator itself is nice and reliably cold! We keep ours at 34 and it keeps the glasses we store inside nice and frosty for our delicious Shiner Bach. Yum! The digital thermostat feature is very nice, to. Super easy to adjust. It's pretty quiet, quieter than our little mini-fridge and much colder! I wish we had upgraded our regulator because this one is a bit finiky- we haven't figured out how to keep the CO2 level constant with it. Maybe it's our inexperience, but I'm starting to think we might replace this commercial regulator with a different one. We ordered a Shiner Bach tap handle from ebay and it fit right onto the tap in place of the stock handle and looks super cool!

As long as reliability doesn't become an issue (we've only had it a week), then it was a GREAT investment!

08/06/2014

USE FOR SELF MEDICATION.HAS GOOD TEMP CONTROL FEATURE,QUITE OPERATION.KEEPS BEER COLD.HARD TO SLIDE THE KEG IN THOUGH.

07/17/2014

I use it for Rubber coated kegs and it has plenty of room. Cools great and looks good too. I searched around and this one had good reviews and great features. I like the feature that you can add or subtract items to fir your needs. Fast shipping and the delivery driver was great. So far it is a good investment.

07/17/2014

The fridge itself is fantastic and I'm very happy with it. The tower and basic faucets are mediocre but work fine. The regulator is terrible and you will want to replace it.

07/11/2014

I bought this because of the reviews and so far am not sorry. It is well made and looks good. Shipping company was great and the put it right in the garage so I could assemble it. Assembly was easy. The reviews on other units had the same complaint, not cooling. You don't have to worry with this one. It cools to 32 degrees and the deep chill setting is handy. I also put a tower cooler in mine and am not sorry. So far I would have to say you won't regret buying this one. The ability to add and delete features is a big plus.

06/24/2014

After a very helpful conversation with the staff, I chose this model, which happened to be on sale. Glad I did, as a buddy saved some money on a cheaper brand and there is no comparison--he really regrets his choice as his just doesn't have all the nice touches and quality this one does and the tech support in setting it up was very helpful for a few quick questions. I love it

06/17/2014

This is an excellent product. If you are a home brewer, this is the one for you. It allows for variety both for your brews and if you choose to get a 1/6th keg. there is a 10$ difference for the digital thermometer keg. Just do yourself a favor and get it. it is worth it and if you are already spending this much money....10 bucks is nothing. It is a tight fit. they give you the c02 splitter, but it is not mounted. I mounted it by getting adhesive velcro from home depot and mounting it to the top side of the fridge. i can move it if i want and it is very secure. having it on locking casters is fantastic too. Everything about it is high quality and i have it out in my garage for now (need a spot inside for it.) perlik faucet upgrades are a good idea if you are going for it. unless you only get a 1/2 barrel keg and drink a lot there is no reason to stop at a one or two faucet kegerator when you can have three options. The great part about this fridge is that it is not so big that it dominates space. I could go on, but by now you have stopped reading this and are already ordering it. cheers!

06/05/2014

Ordered mine with the Perlick faucets, outfitted for 2 homebrew cornie kegs and a commercial sixth barrel. It works great.

Only improvement I'd make is that I wish it came with longer beer line so that I could run it at a higher pressure, but I'm doing just fine at 40degrees and about 10psi.

Had a problem with the initial CO2 regulator, but beverage factory made it quick and easy to get a replacement.

05/04/2014

I did a bunch of research before buying. The Haiers and the Danbys of the kegerator world seem to be very cheap. Not affordable, mind you, cheap. As in, not well made. A few people have recommended the Kegco units, and the reviews have all been positive. Well, so far the reviews have been spot on. I ended up purchasing a "scratch and dent" unit. The only issue is a small dent on a side wall, at the very bottom. I'll gladly take that for the $150 off regular price. Other than that dent, it's in prestine shape.

Anyway, the unit arrived a few days early, which was great. it was VERY well packaged. The packaging was in perfect shape as well. They were cautious with packing and shipping, clearly. It took maybe 45 minutes to unpack everything and assemble the few things that needed assembly (faucet tower, casters). The unit is super quiet. Can barely hear it run. I have mine set at 33 degrees, and canned soda has small ice crystals all through it when I pop the tab. perfect. It would probably freeze if I dropped it to 32. The temp adjustment covers the 32-75 degree range. I plan on testing this out at some point, using the fridge as a fermentation chamber to maintain temps when I brew my own.

Overall ,this thing rocks so far. If reliability does not become an issue, it was money very well spent!!

04/01/2014

I've been a home brewer for a few years and was getting tired of bottling so I finally got into kegging with this unit. I was very impressed with the quality of the unit and the lines beverage factory provided for all the gas and liquid hook ups. I currently only have one keg full but hooked up all 3 kegs to run hot water with PBW through the lines to clean them and then ran sanitizer through all 3 kegs and lines also to prep for eventual home brew flowing through.

The unit is very quiet. We have it next to our bar in the basement and its just a few feet behind our couch and you can barely hear it when the compressor kicks on.

I upgraded to the Polished Stainless Steel Tower with Perlick 630SS Faucets and it is pretty good quality and came with insulation in the tower. I haven't had any issues with foaming or warm beer in the line even when not being used for a couple days.

The only con is that the triple faucets are very close together and it doesn't leave you many options to upgrade the tap handles. I initially ordered the T180-7 - Twist - 7" BOD (Branding On Demand) Tap Handle but had to return them because the handles hit each other at the top. You're limited to probably a 4 or 5 inch pretty straight tap handle. I'm currently just using the cheap plastic ones that come standard. They are fine but I want something a little nicer.

03/31/2014

I tried and returned a kegerator of lesser quality to a different store. I found the Kegco model and paid a little more. Boy, what a difference. This kegerator is much more solid and put together well. The fan sounds great in theory however I found it to be very noisy. Sounds like a weed whacker at times. It was much noisier in the first few days but once the fridge was cooled then the fan doesn't turn on nearly as often. I like the digital controls as I don't have to crawl behind the fridge when I want to adjust the temperature. I would give up the digital for a quieter traditional model however. The stainless steel tower and perlicker tap upgrade were well worth it.

03/14/2014

I had been using a 5 liter kegerator but was dis-satisfied with the poor selection of beers available, so I ordered the K309SS-1. My only regrets are that I should've done this years ago and that I only ordered the single tap (I upgraded to a double tap within a month). Aside from a little compressor noise this thing is perfect and I would recommend it to anyone.

03/10/2014

I review products before I buy them. I understand that everyone does this. Nobody does the research that I do. I picked this unit instead of a TRUE Kegerator based on this unit is half price of the commercial units. Beer is ice cold, the unit is quiet, and the components are all high quality. Setup is a breeze and the Beverage Factory is the place to buy. Can't find it cheaper. Very happy with everything.

03/07/2014

I have 3 of my own brews on tap at any time!! The digital thermostat is right on, I keep it set at 38deg. The fan helps cool everything faster and keeps a steady temp. It is a quiet unit and the stainless matches the other appliances in the kitchen. (Keeps the wife happy). I just wish the co2 tank was on the right side instead of on the left in front of the fan. Or better yet was able to be mounted in the back outside of the unit.

02/25/2014

Hopefully I wont jinx myself, but so far this keg cooler is great. I have had a keg cooler in the past and although it worked, it always gave me problems. This cooler worked great from the beginning. Keeps the beer very cold, and no foaming. The one thing that would have been better is if the bottom where the keg sits, if it would slide out for easier install. Great unit. Great delivery time also.

02/13/2014

Great kegerator keeps beer ice cold. My only problem now is that im drinking too much beer lol.

02/06/2014

Pros; I originally converted my garage fridge into cooler for keg to see if I liked having that, Well I did and after much research decided on this Kegerator and am very happy
Cons; doesn't keep 100% accurate temperature but it didnt cost me thousands of dollare either!!

02/05/2014

Everything was included in the shipment but, I did have one issue. The plastic adhesive on the front panel has a spot where it is pealed up a little bit. I figured wasn't to big of an issue considering u can hardly see. Over all though I'm hella pleased.

01/21/2014

Yes, I bought 2 of them and they're awesome!

Everything came as expected and except for the unorthodox tower screws, everything looks and pours like a charm. The screws for the tower were not tapered so I had to find a specialty screw shop to get the 16mm M5 Stainless Steel Machine Screws to replace them (a minor detail but they now look flush with the chrome base).

I also upgraded to the Premium Pro Series Commercial Grade Dual Co2 Gauge and got the T180-7 - Twist - 7" BOD (Branding On Demand) Tap Handle (a necessity if you’re going to do U-Brew with multiple kegs at one time). It took me a while to set up a template to fit the margins in the tear-drop like Tap Handle window but now I can quickly customize/print a new label when I change the keg.

All in all, the Kegerators work great and look great. I affectionately call them the ‘twins’… :). They sit in our front living room and they look like they’re part of the furniture. Even my wife likes them.

Money well spent and I would definitely recommend them if you’re looking not just for functionality but also for an appliance to compliment your furniture.

Cheers… :)

01/10/2014

I bought this kegerator as a xmas gift to myself and I cannot complain,My beer is always fresh n ice cold!

12/30/2013

I keep this Kegerator in my man cave, where we watch UFC fights and all other sports.I have used four pony kegs in it so far with no problems. All my friends think it is so cool.I keep my beer at 34 and it is cold and good. The super chiller is awesome and it really works.(I love that feature) This Kegerator will hold any size keg plenty of room,and well built inside.I upgraded to a polished stainless steel tower (beautiful)and a dual gauge C02k, witch tells me how much C02 is in my tank and pressure (I keep mine at 10 pounds) easy to use.I also got a Kegco pump cleaning kit to clean the lines. So easy to use,fantastic! A must to keep your beer fresh.(I clean mine after every two kegs)It comes with a 5 pound aluminum tank and it sure looks good. The only issue I have is its hard to find someone to fill the tank with C02. A welding Supply place will carry 5 pound C02 tanks full but will not fill yours and their tanks are ugly, and yours is beautiful. They want an exchange so I decided to keep mine and buy theirs. The C02 is cheap and lasts a long time, but buying the tank the first time is expensive, I hope to find someone who can fill my tank for a reserve. But If I was to do it again I would delete the tank. If your looking for a kegerator this is the one, you will not be disappointed.

12/24/2013

Purchased this as a Xmas present for hubby. We set it up with ease, purchased a keg, hooked it up and after clearing the line a little, we had nice cold beer with very little waste. WE have owned kegerators in the past the provided more foam than beer. Additionally, there is a lot of room inside. I have 2 champagne bottles in there right now cooling for mimosas on Christmas morning

12/18/2013

Very compact. Gets cold quickly. Easy to assemble. Hardware is all heavy duty stainless. Very good quality. Whisper-quiet compressor

11/01/2013

Pros: everything!
Coins: nothing!

This product out of the box is amazing. Easy setup as well as great construction. The way it is designed the first poor is always cold due to the internal fan. With this product, you get what you pay for! Temp control is great and the chill function are flawless!

08/19/2013

I recently purchased this kegerator, I am thrilled with it! Easy to set up and pouring cold beer. I like my beer REALLY cold, this unit has an additional fan and digital display for accurate temperature. I am glad I was able to purchase a great unit with out having to spend a ton of money. I upgraded the regulator to a double gauge, I am not that close to an air and gas place, I would hate to run out.
