Victory 5lb CO2 Tank Aluminum Cylinder with CGA320 Valve

Nice looking cylinder, use it for a planted aquarium.

Now understand something up front. When you buy this tank, chances are when you take it to get filled, you will be kissing your new shiny tank away and you will be given another older tank. They very rarely fill them for you unless you ask and pay more, but most places just will not do it. And it's fine, and this is why: If you were to go to Airgas (which is where I go because they sell US-FDA certified food grade CO2 for direct human consumption, the difference is slight, and a lot of it might be over regulation, but there is definitely a difference and for the price, why not spend an extra $5 for food grade, keep you and your family safe), and ask Airgas for a 5lb tank filled with CO2, they will charge you anywhere from $100 (if very lucky, not at Airgas) to around $150 for the 5lb cylinder, and then another $23 for the food grade Co2, and then another $5.25 for the Hazmat. This all can come close to $180 all said and done, possibly more, so you buy this empty tank for $65, get it filled at Airgas or a restaurant supplier or a home brew shop (anywhere that sells food grade tanks and gas) pay a total of around $20 for the full tank and $5 for the Hazmat and you are all set for under $100. Sorry if that does not make sense, still learning English, but you are saving at least $50 minimum.Then buy the best reviewed hose on Amazon, make sure it is compatible with your tank valve and soda machine or whatever you are doing, and you are all set. Just make sure to use a wench to connect the tank valve and you should be able to just hand tighten the part that connects to the soda stream, the new model hoses are very easy to use. I drilled a small hole in the back to make it look nicer and match my hose color.That's pretty much it. I recommend listening for leaks when you first turn it on, I had to tighten my tank valve a little bit more, but the machine end was fine. I recommended buying at least 2-4 bottles, that way you reduce stress on the hose and you can store up. Only other thing I will say, I close the cylinder valve when not in use and make sure the line is clear, you do not have to do it, but to save as much Co2 as possible and to be as safe as possible, I think it's a good idea.So in summary, buy tank for $60-70, buy hose for $30-40, go to a place selling FDA food grade Co2 tanks, swap out your tank, make sure they give you paper work with the new tank (a receipt showing the amount of gas and the quality), go home and carefully put everything together, there are youtube videos with instructions and you are all set. Biggest complaint I have hear is hose quality, but they are cheap and Amazon, or the 3rd party company should refund or replace for a better one.Now you are all set, and although it was a lot money up front, it pays for itself in just under a year and then you will be making liters of seltzer water for about 0.17 a pint. Enjoy.

No more tracking down which store has cartridges for my Soda Stream! This tank is perfectly priced for a swap out at local gas providers, and they last 5 times as long!

I purchased this Victory 5lb CO2 tank to use with my SodaStream, and it’s been a great investment. The tank is well-built, though it arrives empty, so you’ll need to refill it at a local Airgas or welding shop. This 5lb cylinder lasts much longer than the small SodaStream cylinders—I only need to refill it every six months, which saves a lot of money. Just remember, if you’re using it with a SodaStream, you’ll also need a CGA320 hose for the connection. Highly recommend!

I can't give a solid review as I had to turn it in (swap) for a filled one, but they took it without question.Not bad, $12 charge of CO2 at the local welding shop. It would have been an hour round trip plus 2 trips as the next nearest had a day turnover time.

Tank was well packaged during shipping, no dents or any faults whatsoever. Mine was certified on 05-21 based on the stamping, so not ideal to have nearly a year and a half already gone.

I wanted to attach a larger tank of CO2 to my Drinkmate soda maker. I was given the option by my local CO2 provider of either buying one of their rusty, worn-out-looking tanks for more than $100 or bringing my own. I chose to buy this one instead, and of course it was brand new, for considerably less money.They don't refill them there, which is disappointing. I was forced to exchange my spotless, brand-new, empty tank for one of their corroded, pre-filled ones.I much prefer to have retained this tank. It was stunning and in excellent shape. Someone out there must have been thrilled to receive their CO2 order in my gleaming, new cylinder when they picked it up.

First of all, if you need a CO2 tank this is the place to purchase it. I was very impressed with the response, the delivery time, and their careful handling of the product. When it comes to customer service theirs will exceed your expectations! I highly recommend this provider.
