Review on Avalon A8CTBOTTLELESSBLK Touchless Hot & Cold Water Dispenser with Self Cleaning, NSF Certified Filter, UL/Energy Star, Countertop, Black by Morgan Ostwalt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product but instructions need improvement

All in all a good product and I would recommend it to those who have not very tasty water and a long distance between the kettle and the kitchen sink where you end up wasting water waiting for hot water. The installation is actually quite simple, but the supplied instructions leave a lot to be desired. Firstly it is actually 19 1/4 inches tall and where I wanted to place it was exactly 19 inches apart and it didn't fit. Luckily I had enough water hoses and was able to tuck it under another closet that had plenty of room. It is mentioned that the provided filter washing tool is used to wash 2 filters before first use, but no washing tool is provided. So I just let a few cups of water through once everything was installed before turning on the cold and hot water switches. Also, nowhere in the manual does it say that the tiny black mark on the hose that came with it indicates that it was inserted far enough/correctly into the quick connector. Make sure you push the hose all the way into the connector until the black mark on the hose reaches the quick connector. You may feel like you've pushed the hose in far enough because of the resistance, but push harder until the black mark on the hose reaches the quick connector. Otherwise it will leak. A full ring around the tube would be better than a tiny black dot that's easy to miss. Or at least mention what the black dot stands for.

Pros
  • CHILD SAFETY: Our water dispenser is UL/Energy Star certified and has a child lock on the hot water spout so the whole family can use it with peace of mind! Your children will not accidentally get burned!
Cons
  • Slightly torn
