Dripless Faucet

It features a dripless faucet for mess-free dispensing, keeping the beverage station dry and free from puddles. The faucet has a spring action design, which is combined with an o-ring seal to prevent unwanted leaks during service and transport.

Easy Dispensing

Plus, the bottom of the faucet measures 4 1/8" from the base of the unit to create clearance for various types of cups and glasses up to 4" tall. This makes it easy to serve everything from hot coffee in mugs to fresh lemonade in tumblers.

Retains Temperature

Because of the dispenser's superior temperature retention, it maintains hot or cold beverage temperatures for up to 4 to 7 hours. The beverage server is made with polyurethane foam insulation, which is designed to retain temperature.

For Hot or Cold Beverages

For use with cold drinks, pre-chill the unit by filling 1/3 of the container with icy water. Cover and let it stand for 30 minutes, then dispose of the water and replace with cold beverage. For use with hot drinks, fill a third of the container with hot water and cover for 30 minutes. Dispose of the water and fill with the hot beverage of your choice.

Rugged Construction

This insulated beverage dispenser features a rugged, polyethylene exterior and withstands constant wear and tear from use, transport, and exposure to high heat. It also includes extra wide plastic latches that are mounted with steel plates for additional reinforcement and longevity.

Easy to Transport

For convenient transport, the dispenser features molded-in handles that are both durable and ergonomic. Plus, the design allows the dispenser to stack with similar Carlisle and Cambro servers and simplify storage. This is especially helpful for operations with limited space.

Includes Drink Identification Labels

As an added bonus, the dispenser includes 8 drink identification labels, which help guests easily identify the contents of the beverage server. The set includes 6 pre-printed labels for popular beverages and 2 blank labels for unique drink concoctions! The label panel on the front makes sure the beverage name is always easy to read.

We ordered 4 of these units, and on delivery 3 out of 4 leaked. Upon inspection 2 of the 3 leaking units had cross threaded spouts that were essentially unfixable. After tightening and replacing spouts we were able to make 3 of 4 usable. By the next time we used the dispensers all three were leaking again. After using both Cambro and CaterGator dispensers, I wouldn't recommend CaterGator to anyone.

This CaterGator is perfect for our coffee shop. We use it for catering and have put hot and cold items in it. Works like a charm. Keeps our drip coffee hot for hours and cold beverages chilled for hours also. The neat part is one person can lift this when it is filled and since I set up by myself sometimes, it is nice that one employee can transport it.

We were really disappointed at the quality of this. It leaks horribly and we have to order a new one. Don't Recommend this drink dispenser. Carlisle is also a junk brand. Cambro is the way to go if you need a dripless beverage dispenser!

We bought two of these CaterGator insulated beverage dispensers. They have worked really well for our off-site catering needs. Printed labels (e.g., water, tea) are also provided with each item.

I've bought this a while back but I finally found time to write this review. The equipment is light and can be carry (empty) by one person. The material is hard, so it can hold a drop for sure. If I need to get a second one, I would buy the same product.

One of the best purchases made! This dispenser may be large, but it does an awesome job, when catering tea bars during hot months in the south & keeping those beverages nice and cold.

I love this product! I currently have 5 of these. It's great for my catering business because I can make cold drinks with ice hours before I go to an event and I don't need to haul separate ice with me. I also love that you don't have to place it on the edge of the table because it has a raised spout placement. I recommend using 9 oz glasses with these. It's also great for kids birthday parties!

This has been a great addition for those times you get a local order for bigger volume of coffee. Saves money not using to go containers and keeps coffee hotter longer.

The CaterGator leaked around the faucet when we received it. Upon contacting customer service a new dispenser faucet was immediately sent out. The new dispenser faucet has been replaced and the CaterGator works great. We use it for serving hot cocoa, keeps the beverage hot for about 6 hours. Would recommend.

Great product. Keeps liquids very hot and very cold for extended periods of time. Quality construction too. Heavy-duty plastic! The silicone seal that attaches to the top of the dispenser breaks as the glue is a weak point for the seal.

So far, I have used to serve coffee and tea for 4-6 hours events. It is wonderful and a huge stress lifted off of my shoulder. I really like this brand too. I have several hot boxes from this same brand.

CaterGator is a great brand. They also make really good ice chests. This is a great insulated beverage dispenser. It keeps drinks cold for a very long time!. The plastic is very durable and can withstand constant transportation.
