Had a good look at one yesterday, this is just my opinion.
It has the thinnest metal of all I have seen, when I opened the tap the body metal flexed.
If you use it on the floor, you have to crouch down to read the LED readout.
Bulldog already has a fault page for when the LED display goes wrong.

BUT, if it does the job I can see it selling in the UK.
Always give the hardest job to the laziest person because they will always find the easiest way to do it.

I for one would await some good reports.
The price seems to be pretty good, so is this a case of getting what you pay for?
Cheap is as cheap does maybe?

Dislike immersion chillers, the grainfather cools to pitch temp within 30 seconds. What is the after sales on this item? I know grainfathers is excellent, if you want the best you just have to pay a bit more.
