BRIO CLNLPOU520SCF2B - 5 Gallons

No lines. No plumbing. No hassle. The Brio 520 water dispenser offers all the convenience of a filtered cooler without the need for a plumbing hook-up. The bottom-load design accommodates long-lasting 5-gallon jugs, and when refill time comes, just slide the replenished bottle into the cabinet. You and your family can enjoy filtered hot, cold, or room temperature water with the dual-filtration process delivering consistently pure water by removing sediments, chlorine taste, and harmful contaminants before they reach glasses and water bottles. The hot water button has a child safety switch that prevents accidental dispensing. Bright LED icons indicate when your water is at the right temperature, and when filters need to be replaced and your bottle needs to be refilled. The cleaning process is a breeze—with the press of a button, the self-cleaning ozone feature thoroughly sanitizes the entire dispenser. A twenty-first-century essential, the Brio 520 water dispenser comes in a sleek and durable stainless steel design that will complement any home’s interior. Review: Use it everyday and well worth it. - I like this product so much that I bought another one for a family member. The water dispensed tastes great hot, cold, or regular. Great for coffee in the morning or iced tea in the afternoon. The only negatives that I’ve been able to find are that the filters could be repositioned so there would be more room for the water jug in its base. You have to make sure that the water jug is inserted fully, so the door will close. Also, it does have a few rattles when the compressor is running for cold water, and when the water pump is refilling the reservoirs. This problem was corrected, simply by flexing some of the metal on the device to eliminate the rattles. Now it is as quiet as can be and works fantastic. Flush the unit thoroughly before first use. I use it every day and have never regretted buying it. Review: Very Happy So Far! - I waited about a month to review this. This unit replaced a similar one from a different manufacturer that lasted about 5 years. So far, I’m very happy overall. The cold water is cold, the hot is plenty hot enough for coffee, tea, etc. The unit filters out the chemical taste from our city water supply and is comparable to bottled water. The 5gal bottle from the last unit fit fine. This may not be the same for every 5gal jug as the filters take up a lot of space. The room temperature water is a bit cold. This is probably due to a lack of insulation between the two reservoirs. The minor negatives are the filters are a bit difficult to install and require a lot of torque. The LED light isn’t in a great position for filling large water bottles. The drip tray isn’t held in very securely and easily pulls out. I haven’t tried the recommended cleaning method yet but will update if I have any issues.
