Product review (5 stars): Loving my Nostalgia Kegerator
1 year and still going strong. Love having beer on tap and this unit fit right behind my bar. Friends love it too. If you get 1/6 or 1/4 kegs (this unit takes up to 1/2 keg) you still have room for mixers and sodas as well. So far I've only had to have my CO2 tank refilled once, and that was probably because I inadvertently had the output turned too high at first. I get a new 1/6 keg about once every couple months (of course this depends on your drinking habits). Keeps things cold but does require the occasional defrost depending on how cold you keep it.

On side note and per the manufacturer directions, you need to let this sit for a couple day before plugging it in and using it. If its been put on it;s side at anytime during shipping or storage (which is a very good chance it has) it needs to sit an allow the compressor oil to drain back down into the reservoir. Failure to do so could result in your compressor prematurely burning out.

Update: Going on two years now and still going strong. I also notice a lot of people commenting of foam issues. I have figured out how get a perfect draft every time.

The trick is to only open the co2 tank valve literally like 1/4 turn, no more. Turn the PSI adjust almost all the way down, drain off excess co2 by pulling the release valve. Then draft a little beer in a glass. If the foam is too much, then wait a day or two. It should subside, and in fact not be enough to adequately draft a glass of beer (no pressure). Now start turning up the PSI adjust. Only like half a turn to start. Check your draft, turn up a little more, check again, repeat as necessary. Once you get the pressure up to start dispensing beer but with not that much head, you should be good. Give it another day (after the pressure has built up) and adjust again as necessary. I've used this method since I've had my kegerator (going on two years now) and get a perfect draft every time. Also keep in mind the type of beer also makes a difference in what pressure is needed and the kind of head you'll get.
