So by now I'm sure you've tried setting everything into the fridge and found a problem... The door wont close! It's actually a very easy fix. First off a lot of people try to fit the CO2 tank into the back directly behind one of the kegs. This wont work. You need to position it between the two kegs with the regulator set up so the adjustment screw is coming straight out at you and is essentially "upside down" (Seriously see the picture bellow or it'll just sound crazy. This way everything will fit in there just fine. The adjustment screw will fit just fine resting on top of one of the kegs. The height of the thing comes out just right so that the bottom of the CO2 tank will be resting on the small ledge in the back of the fridge, the canister will be held in place by the sides of the two kegs, and the regulator's adjustment screw will be just fine and shouldn't be damaged at all.

That solves half the problem, but the door still wont close. Turns out that the only problem is the bottom shelf on the door. The other shelves are no problem and I use them to hold my yeast and hops for brewing, and the pop (Yes it's Pop, I'm from Michigan damn-it) dispenser holds some Pepsi or Coke for my friends when we don't feel like a brewski. Simply pull out the bottom shelf that runs the length of the fridge and the door will close just fine.

Alternatively you can turn the shelf sideways so that it's flush with the black plastic of the door and it'll fit just fine. I just have mine shoved in there like that to hold some micro-brewed beers. A few other people have drilled holes for the stubs of the shelf to grip into the door properly and you wont have to worry about it falling out.
