My old Danby died yesterday. I can't really complain as it's nearly 20 years old. It's the smaller of my 2 and I'm replacing it with another small one to fit the same footprint on my enclosed porch. The one I ordered is just the refrigerator section - my double tower and taps are fairly new, no need to replace them. Pour one out for my dandy Danby!

20 years is a good life.  I will pour one out for it :)

RIP kegerator. Mine is at 17 years. I'm ok with jinxing it.

Installed the tower on the new one. Just letting it sit a bit before plugging it in.

I just broke it in with a pint of Baltic Porter. Brewed 2 weeks ago and it's very good already.

Funny you should say that. I never put any stickers on my kegerators until a few weeks ago. I put a Yakima Valley Hops sticker on my original kegerator. It died shortly thereafter. I'll be wary adding stickers going forward!

Now that is funny. I concur that you should leave the stickers off this one!

since one of my "kegerators" is really just a regular fridge that I haven't made any permanent mods to I just use magnets to put the stickers on it so they aren't really stuck on there.

Ha, my old avocado green monster was a "wonderful color". I tried to hide it with as many stickers as possible. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but on the small fridges, aren't the condenser coils on the sides?

On the back of mine.
