Shirron or Perlick? Is there a difference? Is it just two different brand names? same product. Thanks
gnef said:honestly, i think that comparison is overly dramatic.
i have both faucets, two perlicks, and three ventmatics. all five are very nice, and work equally well from my standpoint.
ventmatics look better to me cosmetically, but function the same to me.
i would say get what you can afford.
something nice about the ventmatics though, is that there are replacement gasket kits available (although, i think they are around 10 dollars each... ouch!), and they have different spout attachments for those of you who are hardcore about your pouring.
me? i just need something that gets my beer into my glass in an efficient manner. i carb all my beers to the same volume of co2, even though i know it goes against the style. i'm just not that particular about it. if you are, then these are things you may want to take in to consideration.
if i were to do it over again, i'd probably get all perlicks due to the cost. at least at the time, perlicks were around 30 shipped, and the ventmatics were around 40-45. that difference is pretty significant for negligent performance differences to me. again, i have different priorities than others though, so do the research, and find what fits best to suit your needs.

sirsloop said:So yeah, I'm tired of my standard faucets sticking after 2 days non-use. I just picked up a pair of shirron's off ebay for $38.10 ea shipped. I'm happy
