I was pleasantly surprised when I received this item: It has a sleek wooden stand and also a nice looking porcelain dispenser. It is so much sturdier than the previous plastic water dispenser I owned! I am glad I switched!

This is a good water dispenser. It was easy to assemble and it is sturdy. I think it looks nicer than the plastic/aluminum units I've rented from the bottled water companies. Well-worth the money.

I was pleased with the turn around time when ordering this product. The wooden stand was top quality and very easy to assemble and set-up. I am quite satisfied with this product and recommend this company highly.

The directions are not very clear how to assemble the stand. The all important missing line is "Tap the bottom of Part B to remove bottom wooden bar, then insert Part A, replace the bar on part B". The bar that I am referring to is put together with wooden pegs. After a half hour, we started tapping on the parts, and the bar finally came loose. It reminded me of a Chinese puzzle until then. ;-).

The product is excellent and the company is A1.

It's excellent. The stand was easy to put together and is very sturdy. Looks great.

We just received ours today (March 25th, 2010) and it was very easy to put together, looks great, and we would be very happy with it BUT...

The spigot leaks ever-so-slightly. This should normally only happen if you do not install the spigot correctly, but rest assured I definitely installed ours correctly. The diagram was quite simple, but even without it almost anyone would find it obvious how to properly install the washers (making sure there is one on either side of the crock outlet, and making sure the curved edges of the washers are up against the crock wall, and of course making sure the locking nut is well-tightened).

We're really bummed out, because this WOULD have been PERFECT if it weren't for the leaky spigot. I did notice in a few other reviews for the crock component of this product a few people mentioning the leaky spigot issue, but just like a seller I assumed that they must have installed theirs incorrectly. I was wrong - it is possible to have leakage issues even if you install the spigot exactly as you are supposed to.

It's such a disappointment to have to give this 2 stars. If it weren't for the spigot leaking even when properly installed, I would have given this at least 4 stars. I'm going to hate returning this and ending up with one of those ugly plastic dispensers :(

We have really bad water where we live and have been extremely pleased with our water dispenser. We shopped around and could not believe the price that we got this for. Very fast shipping. Couldn't be happier!

This product looks nice and assembles easily. The dispenser does not leak and is easy to fill.

Whenever I purchase something, I always check out the reviews. That's my homebase of reference is other people's thoughts. When I saw the negatives about the plastic electrical water dispensers, I was floored because that was what I was going to purchase.
When I saw all the rave reviews about this water dispenser, it all made sense. I received it in record time; my son put it together and since I didnt hear him swearing, it must have been easy.

To say I love it is an understatement. I purchased two five-gallon jugs and with the three-gallon jug that comes with the set, I am set. Love it, love it, love it! Fabulously functional and beautiful.

Couldn't be more pleased. And it doesn't drip! Awsome.

We had an electric water cooler for a number of years; however, it would leak from time to time and make a big mess; this water dispenser is not only attractive, but totally efficient and fits right in with our decor. We are very pleased with our purchase.
