Make sure you are willing to constantly remember to have a big enough cup under the spout or a deep enough tray that may look like an eyesore fore most. I bought this to replace my primo manual pump thinking it would be a wonderful upgrade since I was the only one in my household who didn't mind the manual pump but ahhhhhh. This thing spits water after each use I am assuming because the amount of water accumulated under the 5 gallon container is way more than the visible water. at first you'll assume maybe your child spilled the water or think anything other than something dangerous. I am lucky there wasn't a electrical outlet behind where I placed my water jug, if not we would have risked a fire. I currently have a 40oz stainless steel thermos under neath the spout. overall besides the spitting it would have been 5 stars but I cannot simply over look it as a minor draw back because my buffet table, wall, and wall frame took damage by the time I realized how much water this thing spits. I know it isn't my kids because I stood long enough and watched it spit water. I don't know if the manual had a caution disclaimer because once I read how to clean and maintain the dispenser, I tossed the manual. silly me. Like I started, this could have easily been a 5 stars for primo from me but this is simply something that cannot be overlooked because how damaging and dangerous it could be, especially if it is not noticed in time because it looks harmless or like it was caused by accident.
