Tools and Hardware Reviews of Haier WDQS015 Water Dispenser with Storage CompartmentCustomer Review: Do NOT buy this item. It's a complete piece of... Summary: 1 Stars
Amazon really needs to allow customers to use ZERO stars! [:-(]
This Haier water dispenser cost $100. Its construction and materials are extremely cheap. It's a wonder the thing made it to me in one piece. When one dispenses water from either nozzle, they actually bend, no matter how gently you treat them. This issue alone made this Haier unit unacceptable.
For anyone w/kids, especially teenagers, definitely do not buy this unit. I don't believe I'm exaggerating when I write "you'd be lucky if this unit lasted a week."
The *only* positive part of the transaction was Amazon's great service/system. Returning the item was a snap. They even offer an option where they'll issue a UPS call tag. So, for an extra $5.00, I didn't have to schelp this thing to a shipping place, they came to me... ;-)
Yesterday I did buy a water cooler/dispenser that is much, much more well constructed and sturdy. The difference between the two units is like night & day. Plus, the new unit, Whirlpool, is Energy Star compliant.
Whirlpool "Hot & Cold Water Cooler" ENERGY STARŪ, Model: WHRA-425BS, Price: $127.00
Unlike the Haier, I'd highly recommend this unit to anyone. I don't know if Amazon sells it but, if they don't, they definitely should sell it.
Best regards,

p.s. Please note this review is the very first I've written about any online purchase. Trust me, I've bought more than my fair share over the past few years. Please consider this when you evalute both this unit and my review. I think visitors need to know I don't complain about every one of my online purchases because I want to read my review online. When I make the time to come back to an item to alert others that it's a piece of crap, there's a very real reason motivating that effort.
Description of Haier WDQS015 Water Dispenser with Storage CompartmentThis Energy Star-compliant Haier water dispenser delivers fresh, ice-cold water to homes or offices, making pure water a refreshing, convenient option. The unit holds standard 2-, 3-, and 5-gallon bottles, negating the need to drink tap or pitcher-filtered water. As an alternative, it dispenses instant hot water through its child-safe faucet for coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. When hot or cold water just doesn't cut it, open the see-through refrigerated compartment to access a stored soft drink, fruit juice, sandwich, or other delectable. The unit also features an indicator light that notifies the user when specific functions are activated, along with a removable drip tray for quick cleanup. The Energy Star label is particularly welcome for cost-efficient and environmentally minded users, as it signifies that the dispenser meets the energy efficiency guidelines developed by the EPA and the U.S. Department of Energy. The unit is sized to fit in tight corners or along walls, with dimensions of 11-3/8 by 34 by 10-5/8 inches (W x H x D), with a weight of 35.3 pounds. --Rivers Janssen
