So I found out that the silly little plastic bung they provide with the keg is not the right bung. Evidently it is just to keep dust out. I purchased some real bungs and all of a sudden these items are very good. Why the heck they wouldn't sell these with real bungs or at least mention it in the description is baffling.
Orig review:
I purchased five of these. Love the idea, concept is lacking. Totally useless for storage of any kind with the cheap plastic bung. No way to seal these and even the slightest amount of pressure leaks out. Why go to all the trouble to create a sanitary environment and then put your product in something that won't seal? Fix the bung and these are great.
Because my beer produced a large amount of pressure from the carbonation. My legs began exploding and eventually a whole even settled. I tried early extraction to release pressure, but there is only so much I can do with a rowdy batch. My bottles with this batch have been fine, but the kegs have been doing poorly.
The other issue is the nozzle. There is pressure leaking that occurs around that area, so some liquid extracts and it is hard to move about.
My recommendation is to try and find some bung that is reusable and allows for pressure release if it gets too high. But for me, I would rather pay more and get something a little more reliable than these. My product is now damaged and I am rather disappointed.

TWO THINGS:
1) The description said a two piece bung is included. I didn't receive one and it looks like other reviewers didn't get theirs either. Amazon should change the description. Still a great product. Just a heads up!
2) While it is really nice getting a blank mini-keg like this, many of your local liquor stores (bevmo, total wine, etc) will sell mini kegs just like this already filled up with a good german beer for about the same price.
All in all, I love this and plan on collecting as many as I can! Sure beats bottling.
