Note the tanks made three years ago

The tank was delivered on time and conforms to the product description. The problem is that the tank was made in January 2014. This means there are only 21 months left until the tank is hydro tested. Over 62% of life was wasted. Bottom line, I won't buy again.

Pros
  • Excellent price
Cons
  • Slightly dented

This is a counterfeit product - approved by Kegco

I ordered this tank after seeing photos that clearly show the Kegco name and logo on the tank. No logo or other identifying information was present when received. I emailed Kegco with a picture of the tank and they said it was not a real tank, Luxfer was not affiliated with Kegco and Luxfer was not allowed to use Kegco's name or logo. I will return this tank.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Looks good, but you probably won't keep it

Seems to be a good enough CO2 tank. But beware, almost nobody will fill a new tank. Welding shops and such swap tanks, so you take your shiny new tank and go home with a used tank without ever using a new one. However, not everything is so bad, a new (used) tank locally costs $80 and a refill $20. So for $60 I didn't lose anything by buying this online, but I didn't gain anything by skipping the step and going to the store either.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Don't really like it, it's ok

Decent bottle but arrived broken and 1 year old (Hydrotest)

Looks like a decent bottle. It came like a box within a box. The inner box still had shipping labels showing where the bottle had made several overland journeys before reaching Revane, who then put it in another box before sending it to me. There was little protection in the inner box and the plastic valve handle was cracked and crooked (see photo). Also, I ordered/received this in June 2020. The bottle was made in June 2019. hydrotested every 5 years, so it passed 1 year after its initial…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Protection

Great Tank.: Welding Equipment

As many reviews say, this CO2 tank no longer has a metal handle. Now it's black plastic. It doesn't matter to me because it's still durable and not visible when in use (well it will be invisible when not in use too). Excellent quality tank. I bought this in August and had the hydrodate for January 2016 so Baku was only 8 months old when I got it. Featuring five of your water resources that I like. Pro Tip: Fill this tank up for the life of the unit in the field. As soon as you approach the end…

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Out of Fashion

DO NOT CHANGE TANKS

I don't know why anyone would buy a new cylinder and then have the gas supplier exchange it for a used one. The exchange takes place against used or rented tanks. Although the description says 'new', judging by some photos posted by people who have bought it before, I was expecting to receive a 'refurbished new' tank. I've decided to take a chance and if I come across any evil tank I'll send it back as it's false advertising. Luckily I have what looks like a freshly made tank tagged with flip…

Pros
  • Made in USA
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

A good tank for your CO2 needs.

First of all this is my first gas cylinder but not the first time I have used one. As a chemist and certified diver, I have used quite a few battered old steel cylinders filled with various gases. This tank puts all the others to shame. The shiny brushed aluminum cylinder is perfect for my fully planted aquarium. My tank came with a two month Hydrodata that came with the required dots and a plastic mesh sleeve covering the outside. The only thing missing from this cylinder is a standard hazard…

Pros
  • WE DO NOT CURRENTLY DELIVER TO CALIFORNIA
Cons
  • Very Expensive

Shiny body and brass valve but 5 months old Hydraulic Sensor

Got my tank today. Looks better than on the picture. including the neck area, as well as a new brass valve, all shiny and polished. The picture on this page does not match what I received. it shines brightly from top to bottom. to look good! the date is slightly less than perfect. Mine arrived in October 2015, so it's already 5 months old. I asked the seller about it after I ordered. Well I'm guessing instead of using 60 months some people got lucky and got a new tank the same month it was made

Pros
  • 5.25" diameter, 14.2" long, 1.125" UNF inlet.
Cons
  • So far so good
