Kegerator or toolbox?

[foxtrot]

Hey everyone, trying to decide on a birthday gift that my wife has offered to get me. I'm either going to get a rolling tool chest or a kegerator. Budget is around 800 or so. I found this toolbox that I like:

Haven't really found a kegerator yet but I want one that is pretty nice quality of I'm going to spend that much. What do you guys think? I feel like both items are vital in a mans life haha

Kegerator ...no decision needed.

The only proper answer is get both.

Why choose when you can have both?

Do you have a toolbox already that suits your needs? If so I would go for the kegerator no questions asked

I completely agree, now if you can only convince my wife haha.

I guess I should have given more of a back story. I have two of those super cheap tool boxes with 4 drawers. The kind with friction slides and they are both falling apart where I can't use half of the drawers. The rest of my tools are scattered in hand held tool boxes and plastic storage totes. The tool box is needed, but then again, I've been doing it like this for 5 years lol.

Then there's the argument of how I love beer

I'd get the tool box.

Kegs are great but if you live near hundreds of breweries (like here) then having a full keg in your house is less attractive. I usually pick up growlers and those last awhile. I don't have large parties anymore so I'd prefer the $800 toolbox.

If you get a kegerator make sure you get one that fits full size kegs.

No the walls are not red anymore. :hat:

Another vote for tool box.

Beer is temporary, tools are forever. Give your tools a good home.

Get both! You can build a kegerator for really cheap, less than $150. I've built a few for myself and family(homebrewer). Just but a used refrigerator off off craigslist and a few parts, really easy. I built this one for my father a few years ago:
