Wonder what got up someone's nose to come up with this load of drivel? If anyone is beating around the bush it would have to be the "mystery" person here who dares not put his name to the spouted pearls of assumptions and outright bullshit.
1. You could not have considered stocking this model as its simply not available to Kegland to stock. The supplier has an exclusive contract with Keg King to sell the product in Australia and New Zealand. Keg King also has rights in other territories but that is not of interest here.
2. The steel in the Super Deluxe is 304 and not 201 which you say without having a clue to what we are selling. 304 is generally used in most commercial environments and does not rust unless exposed to corrosive environments like marine spray.
3. The sound is not identical and you have obviously never heard it.
4. The Super Deluxe fridges have a 43 degree Celsius ambient rating which is way above anything the GD series can work efficiently at. The compressor, cooling fan and control system of the SD range are totally different from the GD products.
5. Despite your lack of doubt the CEO Keg King will not "object" to these comments but rightly dismisses them as childish attempts to score some cheap points with making up something and jumping to wrong conclusions.
So your points in order:
1. "It will rust" - NO IT WILL NOT
2. "The noise level is the same as the Grand Deluxe" - NO IT IS NOT AND IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MACHINE WHICH YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD
3. "You pay more for 201 stainless that will get surface rust on it if the surface is exposed to moisture" - YOU PAY A LITTLE BIT MORE BECAUSE ITS MADE OF 304 THAT DOES NOT RUST AND YOU WILL ALSO HAVE IT STAY THE SAME FOR MANY YEARS OF GOOD SERVICE"
So lets stick to the facts and see that for not much more a customer will get a superior product that works efficiently at higher temperatures and does not show the scratches that a powder coated panel will. Its stainless inside and outside. Even the GD stainless units are not stainless inside you will note. Just the outside and they are 201.
One of the ways in which we try to serve our clients better is to always look for something better. We found that with the GD range they suffered from scratches a lot and during our increasingly hot summers were struggling. So we found a better product and we think it will find great acceptance out there if the feedback from those who purchased them already is anything to go by.
