Summary: If you want cold beer on tap and have never used a kegerator, this is a really nice way to make that happen. You may want to read my lessons learned at the bottom. If you already know what you're doing, have a good laugh at my mistakes. Cheers!I've been using mine for a couple of weeks. This is my first experience with a kegerator and I'm very pleased. There were a couple of hiccups which were mostly my fault which I will share as an FYI to potential buyers. Especially fellow noobs. The kegerator arrived without any damage and brand new. The instructions aren't great and as others have said I did utilize YouTube for help with connecting the CO2 tank and tapping the keg. Once I got through the minor issues, it's working great. I have to occasionally adjust the CO2 level with the regulator to keep the psi in the range of 8 to 12 and thus the proper flow/carbonation but otherwise it's super easy once it's set up.Here are the main lessons learned I wanted to share:1. Something in the instructions that I missed was to make sure you put the neoprene washer in the connector which goes to the coupler. The coupler is the part which taps the keg. The result, luckily, was only a small amount of beer leaking. Once I put the washer in, that was entirely resolved.2. When you clamp the gas lines to the CO2 tank and the coupler, definitely do as the instructions suggest and put the end of the gas tube warm to hot water to soften them. I didn't do this initially.3. Related to #2, I suggest buying metal clamps you can tighten with a screwdriver. The plastic clamps that come with it are cheaply made. My local hardware store sold 5/16 to 5/8" clips for $1.79 or you can buy them here I'm sure. Put them on nice and tight. I had a CO2 leak because I didn't.

Does what it's supposed to do. Makes little noise and keeps the beer cold.

Just arrived. No where to install front castors and the stainless steel door is scratched and looks like it has been opened before.
