Danby not cold enough
Just bought the Danby keg cooler model#DKC645BLS from Sam's Club, nice price but I can't get the temperature low enough. This unit has a digital thermostat and gauge, I set it to the lowest temperature it will go, 36 degrees. I have been running it with a 1/2 keg that is now only 1/4 full for 2 days and when I check the temperature by impersing a thermometer in a cup of water that has been in it for 1 day I get consistent temperature readings of 44 degrees. I have verified with a 2nd thermometer but not immersed in water, just a regular refrigerator thermometer. Has anybody heard of problems with these units, should I return it? I called the service line and they said they haven't really had any issues but a few customers have been calling about this issue. They are testing 50 units and will have the results in 2 weeks. Should I wait or return this unit? If I should return it can you recommend another unit that will keep my beer cold. Thank you for any help you can give me.
