After seeing more and more 5-gallon water coolers in offices and in medical practices, I gave it thought about getting one for the home. Bottled water has less chemicals and tastes way better than municipal tap water, and a water cooler gives you colder water than what most tap water faucets can do most of the year. And 5-gallon water refills are way cheaper and more eco-friendly than buying a case of water when you want it on the fly.
The Primo Water cooler is as quiet as a small refrigerator, easy to assemble, and easy to maintain. It sits by our kitchen, and we usually go through a 5-gallon bottle of water a week to 10-days. After drinking water from the dispenser after a while, then getting a drink of water from the faucet, you'll appreciate the taste of the bottled water pretty quick.
The hot water option is good for getting water for coffee, tea or those cups of ramen noodle instant lunches. The water does come out hot enough for most tastes.
Primo also has refill stations at our local grocery store, with options to refill your current bottles, swap out your used bottles for new, pre-filled bottles, or purchase additional bottles. *NOTE* you do not have to purchase or use Primo-branded products for your dispenser -- they WILL be compatable with most 5-gallon bottle makers and will dispense water from most any source -- I would recommend purified/filtered bottled water vendors to keep your dispenser free from chemicals that could accumulate in your dispenser. We reuse and refill our bottles rather than swap out for new ones each time as we keep the empties in a protected, sheltered location.
The Primo dispenser also has separate toggle switches to turn on or off the small LED light which is where the water dispenses, the heating element for the hot water and the cooling element for the coldest water. The light is just bright enough to show where it is (the dispensing area) in the dark, but it is subtle enough that it will not light up the entire room like a regular nightlight would.
They also give you coupons for a free 5-gallon "starter bottle" and a free 5-gallon refill (which in our area is normally about $2.00 -- which gives you an idea on how much you can save refilling your existing bottle(s) when you run out. vs swapping them for new bottles or having your water bottles delivered by a vendor).
And yes, I find myself drinking more water at home than what I used to because of the convenience factor and that it can be instantly ice cold without needing ice cubes.
The cold is cold and the hot is hot. I never use the middle cool tab. My GE had a nice storage area on the bottom.
But it was taller because of it which made it harder to load the 5 gallon water bottles.
The Primo doesn't have any storage and is quite a it shorter which makes it a lot easier to load the water bottles.
The manual tells you to keep about 4 inches from the wall. I see why because it can get hot in the back if it doesn't get enough ventilation. The Primo is a much better looking cooler than my GE.
This Primo is a very nice water cooler. It does its job very well
5 months later: Still works great, still loving it, rarely crave soda or Crystal Light anymore. We're never NOT going to have one of these in our home rest of our lives.
Top reviews from other countries
One improvement that could be made is to make unit taller...dispenser is rather low causing users to bend uncomfortably to fill cups. We placed unit on platform to raise it 2 feet.
We read the reviews and hopefully GlobalDropBox provided some sort of warranty or replacement for those of you that have encountered issues.
Pricing was better than some local suppliers of exactly same model. We paid $239CDN not including taxes.
Hope this helps with your decision making to purchase
Everything works as it should.
Pros: Good price
Seems well built
Cons: Hot water heater is always on. In todays day of striving to improve energy efficiency, this seems like a shame....
I lost the part that punctures the hole in the water bottle. Where would I find that piece?? Please advise
