Just follow the instructions, including wearing gloves!I chilled a 2.5# tank, warmed a 5# tank and it easily transferred 2#.

I bought this to transfer liquid CO2 from a 150lb tank to a fire extinguisher that was being used in a stage production. The hose works great and as advertised. When attaching it to the smaller tank the fitting doesn’t rotate though, so you have to twist the hose in the opposite direction before attaching it or you end up with a twisted mess the other way. Other than that; just what I needed.

the pressure realief screw would not close tight enough. so leaks gas all the time. tried to tighten enough to stop gas flow, and the thumb screw snapped inside. seriously i was able to bust a 'metal' thumb screw uwing my fingers. garbage quality... and did not realize, it was sent to me in canada from amazon us (bought through the .ca site) so return shipping I have to pay up front... return states item has to arrive in 10 days for credit... northern ontario to las vegas during apandemic? forget it. another pieve of junk to toss on the bad CE pile.

I'm speculating a bit, but I suspect that the people who gave this product a negative review didn't invest the time researching how to transfer gasses between cylinders properly.I have a kegerator that came with a 5# CO2 tank. Rather than pay ~$25 to have it refilled each time it ran out, I finally decided to upgrade to a 20# tank that I can exchange at my local welding supply shop for $37 (they also stock food grade CO2 . . . unlike the place I was having it filled at). Worked out great!However, I still wanted to be able to use my 5# tank when I serve beer away from my kegerator. It's also convenient for homebrewing applications (flushing out siphon lines, kegs, etc.). Problem was, I still didn't want to pay 3X what I was paying for the CO2 in the 20# tank that I got from my local welding supply shop. This product is the perfect solution!The 20# tank is designed to provide CO2 gas (not liquid) so it doesn't have a dip tube in it. In order to transfer liquid CO2 to my 5# tank, I had to invert the 20# one (so the liquid CO2 was at the valve instead at the bottom of the tank). There are no instructions with this transfer hose, but the steps are easily found online (along with appropriate warnings). The steps I used were:- Put the 5# tank in the freezer overnight- Connect the 20# and 5# tanks to the transfer hose, with the needle valve closest to the 5# tank- While wearing a good pair of gloves, open the valve on the 20# tank- Open the needle valve on the transfer hose, flushing the transfer hose with CO2 gas- Close the needle valve and invert the 20# tank- Slowly open the valve on the 5# tank and listen to it fill!A small scale is useful to monitor how much CO2 you're adding to the empty tank. There are sites that warn about the dangers of over filling. I don't know how legitimate they are, but I'd rather not go there!I just used the transfer hose for the first time a few minutes ago and it worked so well that I had to write a review! Not counting the convenience of being able to do this myself instead of driving 10 miles and waiting around for ~15 minutes to get my 5# tank filled, this thing will pay for itself in ~3 fillings!
