1 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other water filtration: replacement filters, under-sink and reverse osmosis systems, filter pitchers, water dispensers, coolers, faucet filters and softeners we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Clover D16A-B-IK-K is a 110v freestanding water dispenser with a plastic body in gloss black. At 52 inches tall and 16 by 13 inches at the base, it is one of the taller and wider floor dispensers in this comparison. The 58-pound weight is the heaviest unit in this group, which makes moving it after placement a two-person job.
The listed capacity is 2 gallons, which is below the 5-gallon standard used by most home and office bottle delivery services. This may indicate a different bottle format or a smaller internal reservoir. Buyers should confirm the bottle compatibility before ordering. There is no listed purification method, certification, or filtration capability.
At $568.61, this is the second-most expensive unit reviewed here. One review at 5.0 stars offers essentially no statistical basis for a confidence assessment. The combination of a very high price, very heavy build in plastic rather than stainless, and near-zero review data makes this a hard recommendation to extend without more buyer experience on record.
Pros
- Large 52-inch height and substantial footprint give it a commanding presence
- Gloss black finish is a distinctive aesthetic option not common in the category
- 110v standard power source with no special electrical requirement
Cons
- Only 1 review provides essentially no reliability or satisfaction data
- At $568, one of the most expensive units in this category
- 58 pounds is the heaviest unit in this group, making repositioning difficult
- Plastic body at this price point is a notable trade-off versus stainless steel
- 2-gallon capacity is non-standard and may limit bottle service options

What buyers say
A single 5-star review is not enough to establish any meaningful pattern. Buyers considering this unit should look for seller Q&A, independent sources, or retailer return policies rather than relying on the review count alone.
Similar water filtration: replacement filters, under-sink and reverse osmosis systems, filter pitchers, water dispensers, coolers, faucet filters and softeners to consider
Frequently asked questions
What size water bottle does the Clover D16A-B-IK-K use?
The listed capacity is 2 gallons, which differs from the standard 5-gallon jugs used by most delivery services. Confirm with the seller whether it uses a 2-gallon bottle, a custom bottle format, or whether the 2-gallon figure refers to an internal reservoir with a different primary input.
Why is a plastic dispenser priced at $568?
The high price likely reflects the Clover brand premium and the large-format design rather than the material alone. That said, most steel-body competitors are available for $150 to $300 less. Whether the Clover brand justifies the premium is a question each buyer should weigh, especially given the very thin review base.
Does this unit include any water filtration?
No filtration method or water quality certification is listed. It is a dispensing unit that heats and cools water from its bottle or reservoir. Any filtration would need to come from the water source you supply.
