How important are removable poppets?

[xmacro]

Would you buy a keg if the poppets were removeable? How big a deal is it?

If the poppet gets clogged with hops debris, then it'd be really important to be able to remove it.

I've only seen kegs with removable poppets. Like Yooper said, if they weren't it could present problems. Sometime they need torn down and cleaned thoroughly.

Much appreciated; Kegconnection sells new 5-gallon kegs for $110, but the poppets are non-removable. Guess I'll be passing on them

New kegs are a waste of dinero in my opinion. Yesterday somebody put a thread about $30 5g ball lock cornies. These are used but for 110 you can probably get three with shipping. http://www.kegglebrewing.com/view_cart.asp
