I picked up one of THESE when I was at NHC in Philly. They had a special $50 off promotion going, so it was only $150. I've brewed with it twice since and it's awesome! Extremely lightweight, very easy to clean, and the handles make it much easier and safer to haul around than a glass carboy. Additionally, it has a greater capacity than the 12 gallons stated on the product description. I was able to ferment 12 3/4 gallons of lager with a few inches of headroom. The port on the bottom is a nice extra, but I removed my ball valve after the first batch. The hazard of breaking it off while lifting the Cavern in and out of my freezer outweighed the possibility that I would want to dump yeast from it.
The Cavern was a great second fermentor to my Brewhemoth. I'm getting rid of my 6+ gallon glass carboys for good now...
