      Those are sorta nice cause just for the water bottle refill, but the water doesn’t taste great and it doesn’t get really cold.

      I could also just tilt my bottle at EZS8L

    It’s not entirely clear from the image which is which, but apparently the LMABF8 is the one on the right, and the EZS8L is on the left.

    Personally I think the EZS8L looks classier than the LMABF8

    Also both of them are refrigerated to 50°F. The LMABF8’s main two advantages are that it typically has a water filter, and it has mechanical push bars meaning that it will usually work even when the power is out. The EZS8L is usually not filtered and has an electronic push bar.

    Fun fact, I actually grew up with the right one inside my house garage, running. My dad managed to find a working one somehow, and was just handy enough to hook it into the water in the wall of the garage. It was actually really neat.

    Can either one of them survive being outdoors in a city park without totally rusting out underneath?

        Said not our Rotary Club.

        I don’t know exactly what model water fountains they installed out there, but they look like the one on the left, totally rusted out now.

        Probably not supposed to be installed outdoors, but they did… 🤷
