Product review (3 stars): also the regulators were crap, hard to turn the pressure knobs
So plan on buying a new regulator and tank right away. The tank had a leak in it where the valve body is pressed into the tank (non-repairable), also the regulators were crap, hard to turn the pressure knobs. Its all just seemed cheap. Being that the pressure is one of the most important aspects of the setup, I went with a Tap-rite set up. As far as noise, it is as expected for a fridge, definitely can hear it run, but not too overly loud. I keep it in my kitchen. I also added the tower cooler right away to minimize any foaming due to change in temp at the tower/tap. The fridge definitely gets cold enough. I kept a glass of water in the bottom to use to measure the temp and it had no problem freezing it with room to spare. One other item to note, is that the tap is spring loaded where you have to hold it open while pouring. I don't like this, especially when filling pitchers
