Kegerator Advice

[Brownyard]

I'm about to buy my first kegerator (I'm not handy at all, so I'm buying one). I've done a ton of research, and was looking at the Komos V2 at Morebeer. Seems it'd be perfect, as I also need to control fermenting temps here in the summer. I stumbled across this Ivation on Amazon ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FCYSWFP/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_EMrsFbT98B9K5 ), and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it. Looks like a good deal, but no reviews, and no info on being able to maintain higher temps for fermenting. Any opinions?

I have the keg king , which is the older version of komos I believe. Ive had it for 3 yrs and its been great . If I don't have any kegs in it I can use it for a fermentation fridge because the temp variety.

Thanks. That's the direction I'm leaning. I've had a pre-purchase question in at Morebeer since yesterday morning, and have yet to receive a response, which concerns me.

I've got the Komos v2, love it also purchased from MoreBeer.

A bit of additional info.

• You can fit 3 5G Ball Lock Kegs AND a Sixtel in there. This isn't listed as a possible combination on the site. It is kinda interesting getting them to fit, but it can happen. Having 3 home-brews plus a local favorite has been great. I hooked up Ball Lock connectors to a Sanke coupler, which required me to get an additional elbow connector though, but that was super cheap on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Keg-Coupler-Profile-Elbow-Bend/dp/B074DBCRKX/
• I've had it for...two months or so? Unfortunately the compressor seems to have been damaged during shipment from PA to CA. This didn't surprise me too much as it arrived with a couple dents in the housing so some banging around obviously took place?
  • MoreBeer is pulling through from a customer service perspective and sending me a replacement unit. It is scheduled to arrive today.

Good to hear they're backing it up, though it's got to be a pain to box back up for return.

Yeah..not looking forward to that at all. Then I need to get it to the FedEx facility w/o a truck.
