Anything wrong with this Kegerator?

Hey all!

Fortunately/unfortunately (however you choose to see it) I have more money than time available to me at the moment and am not much on DIY projects. I'm looking at purchasing this to get me started into Kegging.

My question is, is there anything obviously wrong with this set up? Anything I'm going to regret if I get this? I'm looking to get the upgrade to SS faucets and drip tray.

The only thing that caught my eye was the 5lb CO2. I think I would've preferred the 10lb. You think I can upgrade to a larger tank with that set up and how long will a 5lb tank last? I don't want to be refilling tanks every week. Thanks for any input!

Nothing wrong with that. I always look at things this way. What do I make an hour, what would it cost me to have someone else build it? If the numbers work out that I am wasting my hours (and have to be away from work or my kids to do it), I would usually farm it out. That being said, I am building a keezer, with a kit from Keg Cowboy, I just wait until the kids are asleep and I am off work to do it. At that stage, it is worth it to me.

PS: 5 lbs last 5 corny kegs is what I have been told.

my 5lb. bottle carbed and pushed alot of beer for me, I think it ran out about keg # 11 or 12. (corneys. )

Yep...and regarding the previous post...if you are only pushing two kegs with a 5# you've got a serious leak somewhere!

That's pretty much the same setup I built for myself. The 5# should last a while, considering that I have had my 10# for 3 years and have yet to refill it after force carbonating and serving something like 20 kegs now

Great thats exactly what I wanted to hear, seems Like I'll be happy with everything that comes with it, and that tank sounds like it will last alot longer then I was invisioning.

Thanks all for the response!
