Just checked mine, no audible rattle.Yeah, I was in one of the early retailer shipments. Do you hear any rattling in yours? Gently shaking mine has a rattle, but I guess that could be the glass beads.

I like the device quite a lot. Manufacturer seems responsive. And sometimes treatment of manufacturer feels unfair. That's it in a nutshell.Looking back at your replies on this thread, you seem very emotionally invested in this device and manufacturer. Something to consider when you read messages in this thread. That might temper some of your assumptions.
The plastic taste exists in the unit not in the CU. Read my posts again, couldn’t be clearer. I received the new CU this Tuesday. Have not even tried it as the plastic taste come from the unit and not the CU.
Adding the photos here (sans the beach photos):Hello FC friends!
We have received the updated Angus Cooling Units. We haven’t had time to fully test the new CU, so no comments on functionality yet. But the new metal components appear to be robust and well designed. These updates should address the issues and concerns we all have. We wanted to share some pictures of the new CU and parts as we feel it is an important issue and information to get out to the community. We are not the manufacturer of this device but we advise high caution if you choose to use the original plastic parts. We suggest discarding the plastic parts and not risk any chances.
We’re not familiar with how to post pictures on FC. Here’s a link to our Instagram post with pictures of updated Angus CU.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday season!
Well hopefully someone with this issue will get their unit back to YLL so they can investigate. I stick my nose right down in there and smell nothing.Yeah, I read your previous posts so I knew you weren't someone who posted about a melting CU and I thought your posts today were extremely clear... Certainly annoying to have emails seem ignored, sounds like an exceptionally bad retailer, nice that we have places like this so the manufacturer could notice your communication more easily and respond much more quickly too... Hopefully they get you all sorted and satisfied soon!
Anyway I just wanted to add that this is the same issue I still have with mine, I did not try to process a warranty claim (with them or VGZ) however can confirm it has nothing to do with the cooling unit... Unpleasant "plastic" (or silicone or whatever) flavors persist from within the Angus itself for me.

COVID?Well hopefully someone with this issue will get their unit back to YLL so they can investigate. I stick my nose right down in there and smell nothing.
Would be happy to compare my early one to a problatic one if someone wants to lend me theirs. As I've said repeatedly, I'm surprised that others are having these issues that I am not. Could well be a difference between the early small batch I was part of and a later production version.I might rather sending it to you actually lol
OH I am such a foodie I'd notice loss of smell immediately.COVID?
Kidding, I’m glad you got one of the good ones.

It's the same 3d printed plastic, so the discoloration is something to be expected at least.can the new CU be used with / soaked in ISO?
I don't think there is any plastic that should get an iso soak. But someone corect me if I am wrong.can the new CU be used with / soaked in ISO?
anyone wanna donate or loan out an angus for science? I have a thermal camera, 3d scanner, digital microscope. wouldn't mind doing a tear down.
could also do the final fitting for this guy - my friend sent measurements but im sure it needs some adjusting

Seems there are multiple problems with this device..
What are the pro's and cons of getting one?
It's within my budget and I'm looking for a new one..
But if there are too many problems with it...
