Look a good cost effective solution to get into kegging and for those of us with converted larder fridge kegarators and struggle to fit more than one or two corny kegs in, a way to fit more beer. Would want to know a bit more about their longevity/robustness/tolerance to being knocked about. I can treat my PET fermenter with kids gloves a bit, but kegs tend to get a bit more of a bashing about.

Interesting. A 4L one of these would solve a problem for me as most of the kits I brew are ~23L so the bit that I can't get in a 19L corny could go in a 4L one of these. Also perfect for holiday use 
Any idea which home brew shops will be importing these? Can't imagine the shipping to be cost effective if purchased off their AliExpress store.

Theres plenty of Kegland stuff already around in the UK homebrew shops so I'd like to think at least someone will have them in. I'd definitely have one or two for flexibility purposesInteresting.

To give some idea as to how much these may cost. As I thought, importing these yourself from China is not going to be cost effective.
Guess they'll be about £20 - £25 from UK HB shops. Could still be tempted.

They have been available in Australia for a while now, and my guess is they will be here in the UK before the mythical

I use both keg King and Kegland products, I do have more kegland gear (mainly due to availability) and I have to say it is very good quality.
Keg King do however seem to improving some of their equipment in line with Kegland.
It's just a shame that they are so slow getting to UK retailers ! However the rivalry between the companies can only be good for the consumer.

If you're wondering about why he doesn't talk about keg King products ask him !
I think you'll find that keg King won't give products to review to anyone if they've said anything positive about kegland. A mistake on their part because they do have some very good products.

I just use 3l Pepsi bottles from Iceland…I have a few and they work great for test batches, left overs and taking to the neighbours!Interesting.

I think the time lapse of the Keg King gear being on the market is the Poms getting their **** into gear. A webinar was held over a week ago between Bevie and retailers. Product has been in the UK for some time now. I was given a 10 litre keg to trial but for me the interest is in the single use bag. No cleaning, no co2, just air squeezing the goodness out of the bag.
I haven't got the bag yet but looking forward to it.
The clear 10 litre keg.

I thought Poms was the your name for the British, I didn't know that you used it for the kiwis (Bevie) as well !!
I bet cleaning those is a pain in the A-hole. Almost as bad as the chubbies, which I had to buy a special keg cleaner to clean properly.
Referring to the Oxebars, just to be clear.
