Customer Review: Save $, get this one not the Krupps one.
Summary: 5 Stars
First off I will say that I have always wanted one of these but have always cringed at the price tag, now that the price tags have dropped on virtually all the Beertender models I feel this machine is a worthwhile investment. Besides the price drop another noteworthy update to this device is the fact that now other, non Heineken beers are available to be used with these machines, A VERY BIG PLUS. Go to any good beer store and you'll see differing kegs around, they just need to be 5L or lower & pressurized. I've heard here in MI there's even a couple smaller breweries with mini kegs becoming available (BELLS OBERON!). My next point is this, even with the price drop, stick with this unit. It does the same job as the more expensive Krupps models at a quarter the cost. Hey I admit the digital readout, clock and symbols on the Krupps models make the whole unit look more techy and futuristic but in the end they all cool to the same proper level and all dispense brew at its best. I'm not even a big Heineken fan, I always found it to be sort of skunky, but my bud had one of these and when I tried it I was hooked. There's just no substitute for that true Draught taste. Also if you store your keg in the fridge before you drop it in your Beertender it'll be at optimum temp in a couple hours, not overnight. It's one of the greatest new at home bar devices. Many will swear allegiance to the "kegerator" with its added CO2, gauges and tubes but they're just too big and bulky for me & my bar. This thing is perfect for me, drop in keg, attach tube and drink, SWEET! Don't get lazy and not look for deals on these too, I found one locally new, at a chain store for $55, yeah that's right, for that price you can't go wrong.
Amendment - 2/10/10: The Bells style kegs, and other kegs that use the "gravity" style spout (stand keg up and open spout at bottom) do not work with these units, MAJOR BUMMER. As previously stated the kegs have to be 5 Liters or less and be pressurized. Although that brands kegs are not compatible, now there are more choices to choose from than just Heinie, although I've found not everywhere sells them.
Description of BeerTender VB2158001 T-fal Home Beer-Tap System
T-fal BeerTender is perfect for home entertainment and enjoying premium Heineken beer. Great for gift giving or have fun enjoying the ultimate at home draught beer experience yourself. Indicator lights up when beer has reached the ideal serving temperature. The DraughtKeg utilizes an internal carbonator pressure unit that releases Co2 each time the tap is opened. This innovative technology ensures beer remains fresh for us to 30 days. The BeerTender keeps the DraughtKeg chilled and allows for a crisp quality beer with the right head of foam and the right 'bite'. The BeerTender works exclusively with Heineken and Heineken Premium Light DraughtKegs which are sold separately.Specialty Appliances
