![]() ![]() If not then it will be returned either for a replacement or a refund. I'm sure they will make it right and if they suggest to pass some sand paper over the scratches and knock off a few bucks then I will probably keep it. Sure if i paid $500-1000 for a product then I would expect it to be flawless. Honestly I just don't think I should have to do that even with paying $130. I just don't want to make it any worse than it is. I could pass some 400 grit paper over it and see if that helps. I do not want a product where the imperfections are deep enough that i can feel it when passing my finger over it. I wasn't expecting a perfectly smooth, blemish free interior. I figured going with the Anvil would be the easiest and least expensive way to do that. I wanted to move away from glass and plastic and go with SS. I get this isn't a top of the line fermenter. Wish the volume marks were spot on but I’ll live with it. A little lighter than a glass carboy and certainly much easier to move around. Filling to the 4 gallon mark actually required 4.25 gallons. Adding one gallon showed I added one gallon exactly. From the indicated 4 gallon mark the other volume marks are accurate. I filled the fermenter with 4 gallons of water, which came up to the 3.75 gallon mark on the fermenter. I found the graduated volume markings to be off. Gave it more of a rounded feel and the bung fits better and is easier to remove. ![]() I used some 400 grit to round off the sharp edge. Barely noticeable but I did and it bugged me so I fixed it. One was under one of the handles and it was very minor. I found a few very minor burs in the stainless but nothing a little 400 grit sandpaper couldn’t fix in seconds. Those lid clamps are strong and well made. Not easy to bend it back without damaging the clamping mech but a little patience and I was successful. One of the lid’s spring clips was bent and didn’t hold the lid as tight as maybe it should. Overall quality of the Anvil is good with a few exceptions. Lot of things I like about glass but I’ve been fearing the day I accidentally bump something and glass & beer go everywhere. I’ve been wanting to get away from my glass carboy for a while. Finally received my 7.5gal stainless fermenter from Anvil. ![]()
