Review: 2 years and dead in the “water” - Edit: Avalon reached out and sent me a new unit. Much happier with them now! 2 years. That’s how long this water cooler lasted, and even in that time it had issues. Last night it started making weird noises and now it doesn’t dispense hot water. 2 days ago it wouldn’t dispense cold water. If you’re looking for something to last a short time, go for it. If you want something that lasts, avoid this product. Also, I got the one with the filters.
Review: Noisy, low quality, incredibly hard to flush filters. - I made the mistake to order this product thinking that the added filtration will be a benefit. However it turns out exactly the opposite. I have spent nearly 15-20 minutes flushing the filters (as described by the owner’s manual) where you keep pressing the buttons continuously for to dispense water for 5 to 10 minutes. So first of all - after minute 3.5 - the pump shuts off. The product is unable to continuously pour water for 5 minutes. I use such device for all water needs and this machine can’t even fill a large pot full of water!!! Second of all - the room temperature setting has no pressure behind it. It pours water at a much slower rate than the hot and cold water buttons. Third - no matter how much you flush the water through the filters - it still tastes like the carbon filters. I wasted 3 five gallon Primo water bottles doing the flushing and the water still tastes like carbon. Forth - the machine is loud. When the pump is working you can hear from afar. When the cooler is working you can hear it as well. Fifth - the space in the bottom compartment barely fits a standard 5 gallon bottle. The Primo bottles from Walmart fit but you can’t close the door without putting some work into it. Sixth - I tried researching if you can bypass the filters completely. The manual is ambiguous and points to the site, the site points to the manual, yet no real information exists. I am not going to try figuring it out on my own because I will not damage my hardwood floors with water. I will return this product promptly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you turn off just the heater if you don't need hot water?**
A: Yes you can. There are two bottons on the back to shut off the hot or the cold. The third button will shut off the LED night light.

**Q: What does it mean when it stops cooling and heating water?**
A: My units thermostat failed and caused the water tank to freeze solid preventing water to flow. This is a known problem with this model. The company was good about providing a replacement even though the warranty had expired. Unplug the unit for 72 hours allowing the tank to thaw out then plug the unit back in and give it a try. If it's a freezing problem it may return in a few days. It cannot be repaired by the consumer.

**Q: Does the pump cone with product? Can you use any 5 gallon water bottle or do you neef special bottle and where do you order**
A: The pump is part of the unit.  You can use almost any 3 or 5 gal bottle,  The sleeve that fits over the bottle is tapered to accept most bottles in the 53 mm to 60 mm caps.  Wallmart, amazon and others sell the bottles.

**Q: Does the hot water come in contact with any plastic parts, such as the heating elements, the reservoir and the spout?**
A: It doesn't really have contact with any plastic...It comes out straight and hot...But it will not heat up or Melt any other plastic around it. (Works Great)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far, so good - Updated: 1/2/2024
*by P***L on March 2, 2023*

This is our second attempt at using a water dispenser. The first highly rated Brio self-cleaning model was sent back. I couldn't get the nasty tasting water to stop even though I read the instructions. So, I read the instructions, assembled it and flushed all (3) nozzles, not just the hot and cold as it states. I ran about 2 quarts of water thru all (3) nozzles until it was clear and tasteless. I tried the hot water one with hot chocolate and it was HOT! I had to let it cool a bit before I could drink it. It was hotter than our Keurig coffee maker. The cold water was almost as cold as our KitchenAid refrigerator water dispenser. The problem with the KItchenaid for water, is the cost of the cartridges. $57.37 with tax every 5 months. We and our dogs drink a lot of water. Anyways, the driving decision to buy this Avalon dispenser was because of the filter system and the use of tap water. Not knowing, I bought an $8.99 + tax 5-gallon bottle of water, which is going back today because, Avalon supplies the water bottle with the unit. Brilliant! It took me about 30 minutes to unwrap and install the unit. Again, I flushed all (3) nozzles and there is no nasty taste. Obviously, this is brand new, so time will tell. Just the savings on the bottled water is a plus. Our daughter has a dispenser and spends between $15.00-$22.00 a week on bottled water for a family of 4 and 2 dogs. Our filters are rated for 1,500 gallons or 6 months. At 15 gallons a week (which is on the high side) or 60 gallons a month. See there are savings. Even if we changed the filters every 12 months at $99.00. It still saves money. I'm hoping that they last longer than that, but, then again, time will tell. So, hot is hot, cold is cold enough. Room temperature is good for cooking. I call this a Win-Win. I am not a spokesperson for Avalon, just a happy customer at this point. By the way, I also bought the Amazon (4) year extended warranty. Last, make sure you tighten the filters with (2) hands. Make sure to slide the bottle all the way in, otherwise the door will not shut. Also, pull the water line to the side so you don't trap it against the bottle like I did, it will make a horrible noise. Good luck. Hope you have a positive experience. I will wait a few months and will update my review. Fingers crossed; I'm hoping it will be as positive then as it is today. January 2024 Update: We had an issue with the filter light flashing red. I contacted CS and they were very responsive and got right back to me. I ended up replacing the filters, figuring that there was an issue with them. I bought the Avalon filters from Amazon, replaced them and that's when I realized that I might not have pressed the red button 3 times as it states in the directions. That was in September 2023. No problems since. This unit is the best!! Clean tasting and always, hot, cool and cold! And, I bought the 4 year extended warranty from Amazon, just in case. Happy New Year!!
