    1.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for.
    Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2023
    I have had a whole host of trouble using these kegs. I ordered 3 for a batch of homebrew with the proper bungs to lock it in.

    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.
