This thing is phenomenal, the definition of buy once, cry once but man is it worth it. Solid construction, all the coils and stainless bends are clean and well aligned. The shanks are all true and square and the taps line up perfectly when installed (unlike my homemade kegerator). The cooler is a beast, I served eight dudes at a weeklong bachelor party burning through the better part of 5 kegs and only refilled the ice twice. Ice cold the whole time and zero foam at 30psi. I had the opportunity to compare the Rubicon (this one) and the stainless versions side by side and while the stainless looks classier, I feel like this one edges out on functionality. The only downside is the price but honestly, once you factor in your time and how quickly stainless fittings add up, I think you'd have a real tough time building something of this quality for less. Just coils and taps would have you at $600. All in it was around $1000 to get this and the jumpers, keg connections, manifold, etc. Confident it will last a lifetime and already have people cool with $50 to borrow it for the day to serve their own brew at graduation parties and a wedding shower. If you want to seriously serve at a large gathering and don't already have the all the parts on hand to build one, save up and go for it. You'll be happy and the smiles of guests pouring their own glass of your brew is what's its all about.
