Reconditioned Pin Lock Keg

Kegs were in good shape and came with a handy pressure relief pull ring to manually relieve pressure in the keg.

Bought 4. 3 were in good shape, fourth was a bit beat up but able to make it hold carbonation

It works, it holds pressure, that's what counts. The one thing I was slightly disappointed in was that the handle is about ready to fall off making it tricky to carry. Other than that it works fine and doesn't look bad at all. Just wish it were easier to carry.

There was damage on the flange around the opening so it doesn't seal correctly. Also, It is a firestone pin lock keg which requires a conversion kit if you don't have that type of connectors.

had to get soda keg connectors for my kegerator hoses, but it works!

All equipment bought arrived in the timely matter expected, no surprises, no complaints!

I have purchased 3 of these kegs and 2 are only useable. First keg was great, second keg will only seal above 10-15 psi with the lid in just the right position. This I feel is acceptable because it is a used keg. The third keg won't seal at all. I have tried to lube the o-ring and seat it with 40 psi and even purchased a new lid with no success. I thought these were pressure tested.

After receiving this keg, I noticed the liquid tube was bent so that it was no longer lined-up with the recess at bottom of keg. I called and asked for a replacement which they promptly shipped. The replacement also had a bent tube. When I called, they told me there was nothing that they could do about it. I went ahead and kept the keg so now there is a wasted beer at the bottom that the bent tube will not pick-up. I will not purchase anymore used kegs from Midwest.

This keg has held pressure well and was easy to clean. New o-rings on the keg was a plus too. It's holding my grapefruit IPA currently.

this reconditioned keg was in better shape than I thought it would be

Good price on reconditioned keg.

I actually bought a 4-pack of these when they were offered, but even at the current price they are a good value over new. It took some elbow grease, but I was able to clean them up nicely with Bar Keepers Friend cleanser. I also bought replacement seals and poppets and they work great.

For the price buying a used keg is worth it and this a great deal at only 45 dollars. When I received my keg I was happy with the condition of it. It was pressurized when I unpacked it so I know it can hold pressure. The O-rings do look like they need to be replaced but for 3 dollars you can easily get brand new O-rings for the whole keg. The keg is 8.75 inches in diameter which to my understanding a little smaller than most Pin Kegs. I'll be able to fit three of these and a 10lb CO2 tank in my chest freezer that is the GE 5 cu ft one. All in all I am happy with the keg and I will be purchasing another two very soon, I know I can trust Midwest for a solid used keg.

Far and away the best price for used kegs. Unless you find some on Craigs list this is a great price. i have four of these. Just clean them up and test the pressure, and if needed replace the O-rings._x000D_Kegging is the way to go, and it doesn't have to be expensive if you buy used kegs.

If you haven't yet, you must start kegging your beer! It removes inconsistencies with bottle conditioning, and in general just saves a bunch of steps & time... but most important, it is the best way to get great tasting beer! I have used mine twice already and couldn't be happier. Kegging really opens the door for a whole new appreciation (and learning) of the brew process._x000D__x000D_The keg came in great shape with all working parts, and is very easy to use. My only regret is that I do not yet have a second one!

It was a little beat up, but after thoroughly cleaning it and replacing the O-rings its functioning at 100% with no leaks or infections. I saved a lot of money and increased the size of my pool of kegs.

Midwest Supplies had a sale on these, 4 for $99.00, and I jumped on it. Great deal! I got my 4 kegs and there was still soda left in them - and 2 of them would not hold pressure. No matter; a good thorough cleaning, some blows with a hammer, and some new gaskets, and I was good to go. One of the best investments I've ever made.

I purchased one of these a few months ago. Works well, seals are good. It actually came pressurized so you know right when you get it if it has a good seal. I would recommend.

Kegs arrived pressurized and fully intact. Very few stickers really. Even the leftover soda wasn't bad in comparison with others I've ordered from other companies. Very very easy to clean (both soda and the stickers outside). One even arrived with a pressure relief valve (the other three, sadly, did not, but I'll take what I can get). Great customer service and extremely fast shipping (arrived across the country right at three days).

I may be in the minority, but I prefer pin locks to ball locks. They are easier to hook up and they are a little more compact than ball locks. I've never had problems with pin locks either. Outside was dirty - so what? I cleaned it up, replace O-rings and saved a lot of money.

This is the best deal I've found on soda kegs. I picked up a 4 pack and they were all in decent shape and came with pressure in them so I know they will hold pressure. O-rings are cheap enough so I always have a spare kit of them, but I see no reason to change them out unless they leak. Didn't smell too bad, need cleaned up of course like any used kegs, but an absolute great value.

Just purchased a 4 pack of used kegs. Other than needing a good scrubbing, they were excellent. Great pricing!

Picked up four of these on special and they are all in perfect condition. They already were holding pressure when I received them. Midwest does amazing once again!

The outside looked a bit sticky and rough but a couple minutes of some Goo Gone cleaned it right up. Keg came pressurized so make sure to check the blow off valve before you try to pop it open. Clean as a whistle on the inside. Spend the extra bucks and buy you a o-ring kit because you never know if you will need them now or in a few months. Make sure to check you I.D and O.D if you are getting the couplers from midwest.

The keg came in good condition and I was actually surprised to see that it came with a pressure release valve. I ordered a keg from another retailer before for a few bucks cheaper, but it had no pressure release valve and the keg was in worse condition. Thanks Midwest!

I have no issue with a few scratches/dings - the interiors are clean, sound, and hold pressure. They survive shipping and are pressurized to prove their seals are adequate. I chose pin-lock for the price but I understand they could be a tad wider than ball-lock styles which caused me to cut out a little more of my homemade kegerator than I would have liked, but it all worked out. Love the pressure relief valve as well.

I now have six of these kegs. They are a good vale. All come with manual pressure relief valves. That is not always the case with kegs purchased elsewhere._x000D__x000D_My first 4 came fairly dirty on the exterior and required a lot on elbow grease to clean. The last two I ordered very nicely cleaned on the outside. _x000D__x000D_If you are deciding whether to go pin lock of ball lock. I recommend pin lock for several reasons. First is availability and price. It is hard to find decent quality, used ball lock kegs nowadays. Therefore, the used pin lock kegs tend to be a better value and in better condition (less dents, gouges and labels) than used ball lock kegs. They also fit in most freezers, which are typically 27" tall inside. Ball locks kegs are 25" tall plus you add another 2.5 inches for the tapping equipment. That may require tilting te kegs to get them to fit. Pin locks fit with no problem. I also prefer the no screw-up connection system of pin lock. It is easy to mix-up the gas and liquid connections on a ball lock system._x000D__x000D_Whichever keg type you go with, it sure beats bottling! _x000D_

Holds pressure and a great price!

I bought two of these. Best price I could find. They came pressurized and one was pretty beat up on the outside but both had nice clean scratch free interiors. All the seals worked and 100% functional. I would def. suggest buying form here.

This is great. Just kegged my first beer last week, and I'm already enjoying it!

Very high quality for a reconditioned keg. Practically new. This one was way better than the one i got at the local brew supply store. everything was tip-top. Pressure relief valve functioned beautifully. very clean and very few dings on the outside.
