Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked this up at a local Sams's Club for under $200, but I kept the box just in case based on other reviews I've read elsewhere that were not favorable. Two things seemed to show up in the bad reviews I read.
(1) The unit did not work with 5 gallon Poland Springs bottles.
(2) The water had a plastic taste to it.
Item 1 was a non-issue for me. My Poland Springs 5 gallon bottles work perfectly fine and they are much easier to load than my old "flip the 5 gallon jug upside down" water cooler.
Item 2 turned out to be true initially. The water did have a plastic taste to it. I contacted Primo and they directed me to their website [...] where they had a (relatively) quick solution that resolved the issue in under an hour. The fix involves running a gallon of hot tap water with a 1/4 cup of lemon juice through the system, and then running another gallon of plain hot tap water through it to flush out the lemon juice mixture.
The water tastes great now! For me it was worth one hour investment to eliminate the sometimes messy upsidedown water bottle loading on my old cooler. I am very pleased with the product, both how it looks and how it works, and I would recommend it with the caveat that you'll probably have to initially address the plastic water taste issue. Do it upfront before you waste any of your bottled water.
