Been using one for years. As others have said, you wont get tanks but about half full unless you invert the cylinders.
I attach the small tank and the turn it upside down and tilted so the small tank is pointing slightly upward using a milk crate to hold the assembly. I get tanks this way that are usually close to full. When the 20 lb tank is down to about 3 or 4 lbs left it becomes about useless.
I only get maybe 20 fills on a small tank before they start leaking, usually around the vent but occasionally from the main valve.
But doing it this way I get a filled tank for less than $1 and they are convenient for in my shed/shop.
