    Oh and are you a home brewer or do you just want to be able to use commercial kegs? They are different sizes and have different fitting requirements to use so that is a good place to start when deciding on a freezer.

    What I did is made a siphon system with a Sankey fitting (standard commercial keg fitting in the US) at one end and fittings that fit my system on the other. This way I can buy a sixth barrel of commercial brew and transfer it into one of my kegs with little fuss. Saves me having to deal with the different size kegs and fittings and all that. Once it is in one of my kegs it is all the same to me.

    Yeah, I homebrew, though I haven't in a couple of years. I know the Sixtle's and the cornies can vary in size. I don't know that I'd want four beers on tap at any given time though. THough, now that I think of it, four may be nice....

    I own a small business doing beer draft maintenance for bars and restaurants, so I know where to get all the stuff I need. The trouble I have is that I currently live in an apartment and have some space issues. I need to figure out if I can really afford a kegerator both financially and space-wise.

    You can always go smaller. The 4 cf can fit like 2 and the tank... or just go with a dorm fridge and modify that.

    The other thing I like is having a variety of sodas made to taste on tap. Can't stand the commercial stuff as it is too syrupy/sweet for my taste. That and mine are caffeine and calorie free.
