Spot On
I selected this model because of the great reviews it got. They were spot on. Compact enough to easily fit behind the driver's seat so that the front seat passenger could reach it easily. Large enough to carry the essentials for our trip. With the optional multi-purpose adapter, it is everything we needed in a portable, electric cooler.
Best Cooler EVER
I love Koolatron Compact Kooler. If you start with something cold in it, it chills up very quickly. I put 3 ice packs in it and they stay frozen for days as long as it's plugged in. I'm a nursing mom who travels, and this keeps the milk cold.
Good cooler for solo truck drivers
Koolatron Compact Kooler works very well. I use mine 24/7 and have had no problems. I have left it in my truck for two days without starting the truck. It didn't run down my battery and it maintained temperature. The outside temperature was around 100 degrees. I would and have recomended Koolatron Compact Kooler to a friend.
Not happy
Overall, just not happy with this cooler. It's fits very perfectly behind the driver's seat of my SUV. The unit is smaller than the picture presents it. The picture shows 1/2 gallons of milk/juice in the cooler but neglects to tell you that you can't have anything in front of the fan. Therefore, 2 - 1/2 gallons don't fit. The unit is also really loud. I bought this cooler, and car adapter, to transport perishable items for a baby. Only I don't trust that it keeps milk and milk products cold enough. Nothing is ever cold. The temperature feels similar to something sitting in front of a fan. A regular cooler with ice would be better. If you're just storing soda, fine. But I wouldn't use it for longer periods of time with perishable ... Read More
Does the job!
I ordered the Koolatron to carry my yogart, protein power drink and insulin on long travels. I commute 32 miles one way to the office and it keeps my lunch fresh. Remember though that your items should be cold already or from the fridge. It definitely does and job and fits nicely in my vehicle.
