They are about as cheap a build quality as you would expect from somthing that is that mass produced and cheap.
That said they are quite robust and good value.
Like the other posters said the comps are chinese and do not like to run too hot for too long, but for the most part they are ok and I would use them.

i did warrenty work on these last year. yes there cheap but you wont get customer satifaction out of them. if your companies got a good name then dont bother with them. comps are crap, evaps leak still have flux lefted on them from factory, pain in the ass to change them as well. sorry stay well away

Our company services them on behalf of a hospitality supply co, I've not worked on them myself, but I hear a lot of grumbling from the boys about them, cheap, nasty, chinese, etc etc

hi i have work on a few of these moss common fault condensing motors, new type is 120mm x 120mm x 38mm box fan

Fan motors, compressors and gas leaks, cheap nasty rubbish in my opinion, Infrico are no better at twice the price.

Hi Dunny123,
Husky UK bottle cooler are made in China indeed. As Al mentioned above, the build quality is ok, but some parts are made in China, such as compressor and controllers. But those for pepsi, they are required to install Danfoss compressors. I think you can also require them to build better compressoe or controllers.
