B7B Room Temp & Cold Bottleless Water Cooler with Install

On initial use, this water cooler seems like it will be perfect.I'm using it in a residential setting: my expensive side-by-side fridge with water filter/dispenser broke, so I wanted a separate system for water (because refrigerators with water and ice makers seem to have really bad reviews lately); this seems to fit the bill. It arrived earlier than expected with *almost* all of the necessary parts.The limited negatives: the directions aren't award-winning (they use darker images, they use one type of cooler to make the instructions for all cooler models, and they make some minor assumptions about what the user knows), but they're usable. The only real negative I had was with the filter. The one I received is obviously used. Not only does it have a marking from someone apparently using a tool on it, but someone also apparently didn't know how to remove tubing from it without breaking the collet. A collet which wasn't replaced - thereby making the filter unusable for me. I found a cheap replacement filter at home depot, and so far it's working fine. I'll eventually upgrade the filter, I just wanted to test proof of concept before I spent additional money. It may be that I can use the filter sent with the kit, if I can purchase a 1/4" push tubing retaining collet.I'll update my review once it becomes apparent whether the 'cooler' portion works well, but so far it's running quietly and I'm very pleased with the simplicity, size, etcetera.The in-line conversion kit uses a water float cup to turn off the flow of water, so I do wonder if there will be limited cold water. If you're using this with a water spigot intended for a refrigerator, you'll obviously need the type of compression nut/sleeve fitting used with a refrigerator water line as well.Overall, four stars and happy with the purchase and the seller.

Great instructions and hardware/small parts to install included. Seems like a company that is in business for the long-term.

The inline filter is easily replaced & inexpensive. Everyone says the water tastes great!
