I need some more reliable temp control and don't have the space for a 7cuft freezer.

I was spying this model and seeing some good deals on it. I'm looking for something that can serve as a ferm chamber and to carb up kegs and eventually function as a keezer.

It looks like keg wise you can get two corny's in and a third if you build a collar.

As far as a fermentor it looks like a single carboy or bucket.

Anybody else have one and are you a fan of it?
 
I have a 5 cu. ft. Danby Diplomat that I use exclusively as a fermentation chamber. You can only fit a single full size carboy or fermentation bucket in it but the hump over the compressor can fit smaller fermenters. For instance I've had 2 one gallon jugs of apfelwein in there in addition to my Cooper's DIY fermenter full of beer. I don't own one to try it but the Mr. Beer fermenter might fit up there as well.
