I have not used these kegs but I did have a lengthy conversation with the guy from Kegtopia and he is indeed a font of knowledge regarding all things keg and co2 setup! I expect he's on the level with good products but have not tried them as yet!

I ended up going for thehomebrewcompany.ie who have tons of 44€ second hand 19.5 litre conrny kegs! And taking advantage of the £ € exchange rate at the moment put's them at £32! So I ordered that and the grains and hops for my snpa (which by the way tastes incredible if I do say so). Delivery I think is about 9€ I bought all the o rings and whathave you but in the end didnt change them because they were in v good nick! Tho was hard to get the smell of britvic orange out so I had to wash and bleach out a few times!

Another keg on the way for my upcoming brewdog punk ipa next weekend!

They seem expensive, they are still a cornelius style keg and have all the same sealing at low pressure challenges.

I would be more inclined t look at a Sankey keg, I much prefer them.

I have 6 of the Crusader kegs, I sold all my cornies and switched to the Crusader kegs, I've never regretted that decision. I can drop the pressures right down for serving out of a Beer Engine without worrying about the lid losing it's seal.

I used cornies, never had a problem, I switched to crusaders, still don't have a problem. Don't really think it matters which you use imho.
