Description

Avalon 3 Temperature Self Cleaning Stainless Steel Bottom Loading Water Cooler with Child Safety Lock is made with an innovative stainless steel body. It offers a choice of 3 water temperatures. The easy-to-use push button spouts make it so much more convenient to use. Simply press the temperature button of choice and allow the water to flow from the given spout. The machines highly efficient compressor makes the cold water crisp and ice cold at approximately 47° F without the need of adding ice cubes to your drink. The hot faucet is hot enough to cook one's tea or coffee or any other steaming hot beverage at approximately 185° F. Due to the extremely hot water, we've added a child safety lock on the hot water faucet. We have incorporated a nightlight that can be switched on from the back of the unit. This will make filling up your cup at night so much more simple and easy. The dispensing area is 12x3x10 inches with 9 inches of space below the spouts. This will accommodate most large cups or bottles. There is a removable drip tray at the bottom of the dispensing area to catch any drips or spills. This water cooler is bottom loading with a cabinet to hold 3 or 5 gallon bottles. The water is pumped from the bottle through the machine. We have incorporated a self-clean ozone function which will automatically clean the machine's water tank with the injection of ozone by the press of a switch. There is also an empty-bottle indicator that will light up when the bottle needs to be replaced. The water cooler is UL listed and complies with all standards of Energy Star. The unit dimensions are 41x12x13 inches.

  • Great dispenser
Color: Black
I bought this for a good friend of mine who was just diagnosed with cancer. She was drinking tap water for years and never drank enough but now that I got her this dispenser, she finally drinks enough water. She loves that it has the hot setting so she can have tea & you can turn on and off via the switch in the back so it won’t use as much electric if you don’t need it. She said setup was simple and she has had zero issues with it (she’s had it about 3 months now.) I’ve used it whenever I go over to her house and the noise is not bad at all. It also fills pretty quickly. I’m actually purchasing one for myself because of how much she likes hers. ... show more

  • Avalon
Color: Black
So far it’s been great. Assembly was simple. Noise level? Have not noticed. Hot water is hot, cold water is cold. For the money it’s a great buy. And looks more expensive then the other brands. Hot and Cold water came out 15 minutes after install. Update: my unit stopped cooling. The pump was still working, hot water was still hot. The Snowflake light was on. I contacted Avalon cause it states to do so. When I did, they told me I needed to contact Amazon since it was fulfilled by Amazon. “Kinda contradicts” what they say on large stickers on the water dispenser. Amazon was great to replace the unit and easy to work with. Thank you Amazon. So this is my second water dispenser in less 5 months of ownership. ... show more

  • Bad experience so far but works well when it works
Color: Black
Im going to be fair in this review its a great looking product and has great features but because of my experience I cant give it a good review. In only about 6 months the cold water wouldnt work so eventually they sent me a free replacement after doing the whole cord cut process because I was within the 1 year warranty. Everything went well with that. My main complaint is that they do not extend the warranty for the new unit. They only back their product for one year and if anything happens to the first unit you need to purchase an extended warranty on the next one even if your still within the one year warranty on the first product. Luckily it worked out for me on this one but seeing as how they barely guarentee their product quality i dont have high hopes for this to last too long but we’ll see. Even after all the hassle I went through replacing the first one they would not even give me a better deal on the new warranty even just for the year that it should be covered so I will just be getting a new water dispenser system when this one goes bad. It could be that this was a fluke but a 1 year warranty with no extension on the replacement says it all to me. ... show more

  • Best purchase ever!
Color: Black
As someone who LOVES cold water, and living in a city with our quality trap water, this purchase is easily my favorite. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and quiet! We haven't used the hot water feature very much yet as it's the hottest part of the summer, but the cold water option is tested regularly. You can turn off the hot and cold features individually. It takes about a half hour or so for the hot water to get hot enough for noodle soup, and about the same for the cold water to get cold. Once the "change soon" light comes on, we can usually get another 3 or 4 cups of water through the cold tap, but it's room temp at that point. Also, it's nice and quiet. It did in our living room next to the recliner, and we barely hear it working. We've had it for about 2 months, and still loving it. ... show more

  • Beware frozen tank
Color: Black
The media could not be loaded. Works, until it doesn't. 20 months since purchase and now no water is dispensing. The cold water tank is frozen and when I reached out to Avalon I was told my options were purchasing a new thermostat or a new machine. And replacing the part looks like a longer process than I cared to engage in with a 20 month old machine. I honestly mostly understood what was going on from reading other reviewa because their website isn't really helpful. Would not recommend if you are looking for something durable or arent into repairing machines. In case it helps anyone looking to diy the repairs, look up "Avalon - Thermostat Probe Replacement" video to understand how to fix it. It was also really loud from early one. Like something was loose and would vibrate too loud only a few months in. ... show more

  • Great Water Cooler
Color: Black
Had to have original shipment replaced because was damaged by USPS during shipping. Replacement was received much faster and in great shape. The hardest part of setting up this water cooler was the unpacking. I really don't know what some are talking about when they say it's noise level is loud. The only time I hear it is when it's drawing water up from the bottle, which is pretty fast and not obnoxiously loud as far as I can hear. If the tv is on, I don't hear it. The water temps are great. I really love the self cleaning option, especially while dealing with the pandemic. This is my 5th water cooler over 20+ years and also my favorite. I'd love for Avalon to mfg nugget ice machines. ... show more

  • RESERVING 5 STAR REVIEW...
Color: Black
The first unit I ordered looked great, unpacked it, set it up, installed water bottle and immediately water ran out onto the floor. Some investigating revealed that the outlet elbow to the fill tank was broken off the pump. Contacted Amazon and they IMMEDIATELY made it right. Scheduled pick-up from my house and had new one delivered 3 days later. I will say, the 2nd unit was packed the same except it came in an additional box. The first unit did not look to be repackaged, but the unit was not packed in any additional boxing. I am a little bummed that the in bottle water suction straw is not the same. The 1st one had an offset metal straw, the 2nd one has a straight plastic one. Not a deal breaker. So far, seems to be working perfectly. NIce and quiet, keeps water nice and cold, hot works fine. I'm hoping it will last several years. ... show more
