Customer Review: A Good Cooler But A Noisy One!
Summary: 3 Stars
The title of this review basically sums up my comments on this item. It arrived fairly quickly; however, immediately upon setting it up, I noticed the loud humming noise coming from it. My kitchen is not large and it sits between the fridge and the kitchen table. It periodically hums extremely loud for a few minutes and then stops. Something I've learned to tune out and am working on ignoring when the house is quiet. The unit had a "funny" smell to it for the first day or so which I attribute to its newness and packaging. The water from the bottle appeared to drain endlessly for the first few minutes (bubbles rose in the bottle for at least 3-5 minutes and the water level was receding)wondering if a resevoir were filling while half-expecting the unit to start leaking onto the floor. However, nothing like that has occured.
The unit appears to give pre-regulated temperature hot and cold water-so far. I am purchasing an extended (from the default 90 day) warranty as I feel that eventhough I am replacing another trusted, now broken and much quieter machine I've had for several years, the "life expenctancy" of this new one is not anticipated to be as trouble-free...just a feeling I have because things aren't made to last like they used to anymore.
Moving and installing the unit was a five-minute job for me (without help). I trust the Igloo brand and love the stainless steel body and aethetics. The space-saving design is convenient as well. I had some universal water cooler filters which you place on the spindle of the machine before mounting the bottle of water and which last for several water changes, so I didn't notice anything "funny" about the taste of the water as others claimed. Only time will tell! Thanks for reading!
