Product Description
Primo is proud to offer this innovative water dispenser. You will be able to drink fresh-tasting bottled water without the hassle of lifting and upending heavy bottles. The cutting edge design features a hinged door and a sliding drawer in the cooler's base. Simply place the bottle onto the drawer, affix the pump, and the bottle slides unseen into the base of the cooler. Like all of Primo's innovative coolers, this model features a stainless steel resorvior that keeps the hot water HOT and cold water COLD, as well as a child safety lock on the hot dispensing button. The combination of a high flow mechanism that cuts dispensing time in half and buttons on the top of the cooler eliminates the need to bend over while the dispenser fills your glass. This high-end cooler would be a great addition to any kitchen, gym, or office! (Shipping available to the 48 Continental States ONLY! 15% restocking fee for all refused/return orders)

Customer Reviews
Does not work with Poland Spring bottles
This machine is supposed to work with all standard bottles. The marketing info claims "Accepts all 3- and 5-Gallon bottles." However, despite following the directions and talking with customer service, this unit fails to achieve a tight seal with the pump (which pulls the water up from inside the bottle.) Every time it loses the seal, it stops pumping and beeps incessantly until I open the door, push down on the top of the pump, and shut the door. Every time I draw a glass of water, I have to repeat this process as many as 10 times until the next glassful is pumped!
I have not been this aggravated with a product in a long, long time. And since I've discarded the box, I'm going to have to switch water delivery companies, which is infuriating.
Yuckety-yuck.
No matter how I cleaned the lines (per their CSR), I was not able to remove the foul plasticky taste. You could run Fiji water through this thing and it would end up tasting like LA tap water. Sorry Primo.
Great idea, poor performance
The idea of a hidden compartment for the watter bottle is great and we thought it may be more safe for our crawling toddler. However, we realized otherwise. Similar to the previous review, the pump will not maintain a seal, even with our Primo water bottles. It is a pain to reset the seal and the light on the dispenser is always on. Also, when the machine is refilling the cooling/heating canisters, the pump is loud and annoying. Great idea, poor results. I would not recommend.
