  • 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. ... show more

  • Buyer Beware - Unreliable Possible Planned Obsolescence
Summary - Stay away from this product. Constant issues with the pump not recognizing the water bottle is refilled and issues with leakage. I’ve owned two of these units within the last 3 years now. My previous unit suddenly leaked all over my floor with no clear sign as to where it was coming from as the source was in the chamber above the bottle. Keep in mind the area the leak was coming from is never touched as it’s enclosed. My second unit that I purchased 4 months ago is now showing symptoms that previously constantly plagued the first unit - the machine would not pump water after filling the bottle. This issue requires constant attempts of opening and reclosing the door housing the bottle until it decided to pump again. I’ve attempted working with support and researching the water not pumping issue and this seems to just be a defect with this unit. Unfortunately I had to repurchase this specific unit as my only option is to bottom load my water coolers and this was one of the only units with a filtration system that can help with the fact that i’m forced to use tap water. This product at its core is extremely unreliable at doing its only job. I’ve scoured through reviews on this products page and at this point I need to accept that 99% of the negative reviews are legitimate. I’m seriously disappointed in this product and Amazon for even allowing it to be sold. ... show more

  • My favorite household purchase EVER!
This is a 'holy grail' type of product I had long been looking for that ticked all of the boxes. As renters in a townhouse w/o access to a water line (for a water dispenser housed within a refrigerator), we'd been subsisting with a countertop PUR filter dispenser for about 13 years. But over those 13 years our family grew, and the PUR just couldn't keep up with us. It was important for us to purchase something that would actually filter water, because we didn't want to have to lug bottles to/from the store or subscribe to a bottled water delivery service. I searched high and low for a dispenser that had good filtration, multiple temperature options, and (importantly!) wouldn't require us to hook it up to a water line. This was a MUCH harder task than I initially anticipated; nothing had everything we needed. So we waited. Aaaaaand waited. Our PUR dispenser begged for mercy. And then, one fateful day, I found it... The Avalon holy grail!! We've now owned this dispenser for 3 months, and it is an honorary member of our family. It's handsome. It's user-friendly. The drum it comes with is high-quality and easy to refill in my kitchen sink. It *does* get heavy when I have to carry it from the sink back to the dispenser, but the fact that it's bottom-loading is a huge saving grace! The low growling noise it makes when we dispense water is a small price to pay, IMO, for clean, great-tasting water. It otherwise is a very quiet machine! I would recommend splurging for the overpriced Avalon stand (sold separately), as it makes the dispenser sit at a very convenient (taller) height, *and* elevates the machine itself from the ground, which I appreciate from a cleanliness standpoint. (We have a dog. She sheds. 'Nuff said.) Of course I hope it lasts us many great years, but even if it doesn't, I would buy it again in a heartbeat. It's that good, and worth the $200ish pricetag! ... show more

  • So happy with my purchase
While looking to purchase a water cooler for family for the holidays, I noticed I did not review my purchase of this water cooler. I bought it in Feb 2023 and have thoroughly enjoyed it. I no longer need to purchase individual 16.9 oz water (unless it's an emergency). It works great to fill my sports bottle as I'm heading out the door. I also love the hot water feature to be able to make cups of tea (no longer use my Keurig or microwave for this). Even though the unit came with an empty bottle to use (of course how to fill it would be difficult), I purchased a few 4 Gal bottles of purified water from the local supermarket. I use these and just refill with reverse osmosis water. The collar for the probe assembly doesn't lock tightly onto the bottom and the assembly seems a little taller than the bottle. But it works just fine and the notification comes on when the bottle is empty. Two issues with the item though ... 1. The unit can be noisy when dispensing water. It is rather loud when you're standing next to it, but it's not noticeable in other rooms in the house. 2. BIGGEST PROBLEM ... the filters. They were rather difficult to install and IMPOSSIBLE to remove. The indicator came on and I was going to try to replace. They will NOT come off. I did find that I can just reset the filter light inside the door panel so it's not a big deal ... yet. ALSO, there are some useless hooks to place the filters along the wire mesh at the back of the unit. They will not hold securely. I hope this review helps others because it is a great unit and I'm enjoying using it immensely. ... show more
