So, finally we are getting our whole house to ourselves(used to rent out the second apartment).
This means I'll have space for a kegerator and can start kegging. Living in Finland, the choices are a bit more limited(shipping from the US is just too expensive on bigger stuff).

are (semi) complete solutions, needing just kegs and some small stuff to start, now this place does have the gear to diy, but I'm wondering is it worth it or are these readymade kegerators good enough for normal use?
 
I suspect that's more up to you. The Mangrove Jack's one holds and dispenses three kegs, the Kegland one can hold and dispense four kegs.

So ultimately between those two it comes down to your budget and how much you want to be able to dispense.

I'd personally say more is better, if budget and space allows. I'm still pretty new to making things and have only had two taps so far on my first kreezer build, but I'm building Kreezer #2 right now and I've got three kegs ready to go once it's running, two beers and a cider. And further down the road I expect I'll have even more on tap, including probably a soda or two and seltzer water. But I'm building a massive kreezer that can hold 10-12 kegs if desired so I have tons of room for options.
 
The price difference is minimal for a one-off purchase(hopefully). Was more hoping people knew about quality or other such things.
