          A:  I’ve had my unit for over 2 years now, still quite as ever. No filtration systems can be used. Honestly it’s been a excellent unit not one problem at all.

          by|Jul 5, 2019

          A:  Steve, Great question. I have the cooler in my office and it makes very little noise when it cycles on. In fact it is quite a bit quieter than my Keurig coffee pot that I have in my office as well. No problem and I think you will be happy with your purchase. I hope that helps, Keith

          by|Aug 26, 2019

          A:  I don't think it noisy but we have a busy house. However I can answer the filtration question-we bought the Honeywell HWB101W 4 Gal. Filtration System and it works great. At one point, I just removed the filter cartridge thing within because we already have two filtration systems in our basement, and I thought that was sufficient. I just fill the Honeywell tank with two gallons of cold water and it works very well.

            Great counter top dispenser
            Works great for counter top dispenser. Didn't have room for a floor one so this was the next best thing. Had my doughts about it initially but after using it a month it works well. Water is cold enough and hot water is hot as well. It is a bit of a hassle to put the 5 gallon jug up because the dispenser is elevated on the counter top. But with a strong hand and a small step stool it isn't a big deal for me personally. I do recommend this product

            This cooler is perfect for me! Instead of placing it on a counter where it would be difficult for me to change a bottle, I have it on a small cart. I can easily move it from one place to another when needed, and it is much less strain replacing bottles.

            What I like about this hot and cold water dispenser is that it sits on top of a counter and does not take up floor space. It does not need a stand like the floor models and is very compact but perfectly sized for our smaller space. We use a lot less small plastic water bottles which is a good thing for the environment. We can make a cup of hot tea, hot chocolate or instant soup by using the hot water dispenser-very convenient. I like the child safety lock feature as we have young ones who visit.

            We have for about a year since getting a new fridge that did not have a water dispenser (long story) been using large water dispensers in our fridge for nice cold water. It took up a ton of usable space we needed for food so when I saw this unit I immediately grabbed it. So much to say about this unit. First it has heating and chilled water settings. It takes about 5 minutes to get the hot water up to speed and about 25 minutes for chilled water. It will hold a 3 or 5 gallon water jug (I highly recommend OZONE WATER) It does not come with the water jug so you do need to purchase that. I would have loved to seen a Customer buys this with the unit but there was nothing. The hot water side has a child proof button that keeps kids from burning themselves and or accidentally being bumped. Chilled water side does not. Its a great looking unit. It has a water catch tray at the bottom so far I have not spilled a drop in it but its nice to have. It has a drain on the back side which is not overly convenient but i do not see the need to drain it. I now have been able to remove the water container from the fridge and have put my insta hot in the garage and now utilize this unit for my chilled or hot water needs. It makes a nice steaming cup of hot coffee. My roommate uses it for making instant oatmeal and soups. I see no bad here. I am looking for something better to set it on but over all for the price tag (and I have compared others) this unit is top notch and I highly recommend it! Also it has ready lights on the front. The far left shows power then heating then chilled water. if the light is lit it means its still heating or cooling the water> I have noticed the unit does hot the hot and cold very well without running the compressor much.

            This water dispenser is very easy to use. The directions are good and it sets up and ready for use in no time. It takes a little time for the water to heat and cool. It is lightweight and can easily be moved to any area. The hot water is very hot and works great to make tea and other items. The cold water is cold not ice cold yet colder than tap water. Very convenient and looks good sitting on the counter. You do need to go out and buy a water jug to place on top as it does not come with one.

            Avalon Premium Hot/Cold Top Loading Countertop Water Cooler Dispenser with Child Safety Lock, Black. It’s is a handsome appliance. The footprint is small. Has two recessed handles on opposite sides and a 70” power cord to provide plenty of reach for the 120v power outlet. It also has independent rocker power switches for the hot and cold on the left side of the unit. What a great feature for saving energy and safety. If you wish you could turn them on in the morning and have hot water fast. The water cools quickly. The evaporator coils are close to the back and it has a drain on the corner on the left side to drain the water from the unit. The front is very nice looking with 3 power LEDs one for the power, hot, and cold features. The drip tray is removable as well as the grill so they can be emptied and cleaned without much trouble. The cold side is blue and on the right side of the dispenser and the lever action is smooth. The hot is red and on the left side with a safety button you must also press to keep anyone from getting scalded, it's a smart setup and easy to use. Plenty of room for a tall glass under the valve. This uses either the 3 gallon or the 5 gallon water jugs. I did not know that you can buy those jugs empty and fill them with your favorite water and that’s what we are going to do. Some water is better than others for brewing a great cup of tea or coffee, so we look forward to that level of control on our new machine. We are serious tea drinkers. The unit is very quite. The red light goes out when hot. It took about 8 minutes for it to get hot. About the same for cool water. The photos were taken at 8 minutes. If you buy a bottle and it does not have a membrane on the bottle top so that the spike on the dispenser can pierce it, expect a mess when you flip bottle up. My bottle is open. I did find after sanitizing everything that the dispenser holds about 80% of a gallon. So after I rinsed it, I filled it with good water and then filled the balance plus the remainder in the jug and it was much less of a mess. I will get membranes so there is zero mess. It's the bottle I chose fault. I can’t be certain but think the hot water reservoir is large for safety and the plus of allowing several people at the watering hole to fill up. This is great, very pleased.

            This water dispenser is very nice and is really great quality! The only step to set up is put the water catcher in place and plug in! There is also a do-hickey to attach it to the floor at counter to avoid it from tipping over. It is really sturdy and a bit more well grounded than the ones you rent from the water distributors as its lower to the ground so it's not top heavy even after the 5 gallons of water is on top.
