I bought the Marvel 61HK last year and am very happy with it. I did a pretty major remodel on my house and built in a bar off the dining room. I bought the Marvel, simply because I wanted a built-in, under-counter, zero clearance kegerator that would accept an appliance panel. The finished product is beautiful. My cabinet maker built a front panel for it, so you don't even notice it. It just looks like another cabinet. I have granite counters with the draft arm mounted right to the granite. I even bought a stainless steel drip tray that sits on the counter. My one complaint is, the draft arm that shipped with the kegerator is a piece of crap. It's all plastic with some cheap chrome laminate. After seeing it, I dished out another $100 for a polished stainless steel tower, which looks great. You'd think Marvel would have stepped it up a little for this amount of money. BTW, I shopped around online and I think I paid about $1400.
The Marvel was an upgrade for me from my Kenmore kegerator that I bought 12 years ago... which is still running great (I gave it to my neighbor).
