Title: One of the best purchases I have made in awhile
Review: We do a couple of multi day trips per year. While our kids were growing up, we used a Coleman Extreme cooler. It worked well. You would pack it up good and it would hold for days and days. The cooler was big and the sides were thick, but it still held plenty for us. It took up a lot of room in the car and it was a little bulky and I would typically leave it outside in the car, even if we stopped at a hotel or a motel on our journey. I would take it out of the car and sit it on the ground before heading out for the day to drain out the water using the drain spout.In recent times, as our kids have grown up, we have found ourselves not really wanting to tote that big cooler around and deal with buying ice and draining water. Sometime back, on some trip, we didn't have a cooler with us because of this, and we had some stuff we bought that we needed to take home, so we bought a super cheap Styrofoam cooler somewhere. The cheapest of the cheap. No shell, no hinges, no latch for the lid, but it was small and easily stashed behind the front seat where it could be easily reached while driving. Even though we had similar sized plastic coolers, we would generally just use that one, because we figure we don't really care if it didn't make it home, or if we ended up giving it to someone.We were about to embark on a several day trip. One of our adult children was going to join us, so we didn't think that cooler would be enough. We didn't want to bring the big Coleman extreme, because we were going to need as much room in the car as possible on the return trip. We had been looking at these iceless coolers for awhile, both the thermo electric coolers and the compressor based refrigerators.I weighed all the pros and cons. I came very very close to buying a compressor based cooler instead of this one, but I finally settled on this one, with the knowledge that everywhere I would be using it, would be less than 75 degrees, either my air conditioned car, or a hotel, or an inn, or a Bed and Breakfast. It was designed to fit perfectly on the floor behind the front seat, and I already had a converter so I would be able to keep it powered in the car and in our rooms. I also got this because it seemed there was less to go wrong with it than a compressor based unit, and because it didn't have the compressor, there was more usable interior volume for the same size exterior. Also most, not all, of the compressor based units, don't appear to have handles and are more expensive, at least ones from a known brand. I would not say that having a compressor based cooler is not still in my future at some point, but I didn't think I needed one for this trip.With all that said, I just completed my first 4 day trip with this cooler. It worked Perfectly. I plugged it in in the house, the night before our departure. That morning I filled it with cold items from the fridge. A full 12 pack of bottled water, several 6 packs of 8 oz sodas, and some snacks. I was really surprised how much it could hold. Because it has a smaller base, it is taller, and it can make it a little challenging to reach stuff on the bottom when it is full, but it is as big as it can be and still fit behind the seat, and the extra height helps you maintain some of the volume you have to sacrifice to maintain that footprint. Also the fact you don't have to give up any of the interior volume for ice helps a lot as well.Because of the fans on top, you also lose the ability to use it as any kind of seat, or to sit anything on top of it while packing your car. Again, small sacrifices for the convenience. We kept it plugged in for the 10-12 hour drive to our destination. It kept everything inside nice and cold. We would turn off the car for maybe an hour at a time at rest areas, or to eat. When the car was off, the power to the cooler was cut automatically, so we didn't have to worry about it draining the car battery and didn't need to unplug or turn off the cooler. It maintained the coolness no problem during the time it was not powered. Upon arriving at our destination, we brought it inside our room and plugged it in. Even though the room came with a refrigerator, we didn't even bother using it. Everything was cold enough in the cooler, there was no reason or need to transfer anything to the refrigerator in the room. Two days later, we moved to a new location, about an hour away. I didn't even bother plugging it in for that trip, but plugged it in again on arrival. The following morning, we again plugged it in in the car for another 10 hour or so drive.So all in all, for this type of trip, this worked perfectly for us. Note there was no time here, where the cooler had to be away from power, or exposed to a warm environment, for more than an hour or so. I don't know how long it could stay cold if you had to leave it in your car while you were on a hike or seeing some sights. I would imagine you could keep some icepacks inside to help it through those times. For this initial trip we made, we knew in advance, we were not going to have those situations, so we didn't bother to bring any icepacks, and they were indeed not needed.I particularly remember at one point, a friend of ours was heading out to find a convenience store so they could buy some more ice for their own cooler. They asked as they were leaving if we would like them to pick us up some ice for ours, an offer I likely would have taken them up on before. I was like, no, we are all set, our cooler doesn't need ice. It was a good feeling.So, there are definitely times were we have used our Coleman extreme ice chest, where this cooler probably wouldn't have been a suitable replacement. Like camping at a campsite without power for three days. For trips like we just did though, a road trip where it can be plugged in while driving, with a room with electricity as the final destination, and this cooler works like a champ.

Title: Igloo Portable Electric Cooler Review
Review: I've been using the Igloo Portable Electric Cooler since April 2016, it's now Oct 2024, and it's been a fantastic addition to my daily routine. The cooler performs consistently well, keeping my items chilled without any issues. I use it nearly every day, and it has proven to be durable and dependable.One minor maintenance point is that the cord needs replacing every 3 to 4 years, but that's to be expected with regular use. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this cooler and would highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable portable cooling solution.

Title: Great cooler poor power plug
Review: I purchased this cooler for automobile trips. Nice to have cooler for drinks, sandwiches etc. Cooler iswell made and does in fact cool well, probably close to 36f below ambient as advertised. The mainnegative issue is the supplied Igloo power plug. This power adapter (12V) is incredibly poorly made.It gets hot, the ground prongs on side are not designed well, as a result the power plug constantly fallsout of a typical vehicle 12V power socket. Eventually the power plug melts and obviously you cannotuse cooler except as an ice bucket. I am not sure why Igloo built a quality thermoelectric cooler and thanwent with such a poor 12V adapter. Any generic power adapter is probably much much better than thesupplied Igloo product. For reference, the power point on the cooler is 5.5 X 2.1 mm. That is a prettycommon size for a barrel connector, but note that the original Igloo is a 90 degree angle. I eventuallywent with an aftermarket power plug, it was much better quality and have had no other issues. So, goodcooler, poor 12V power adapter.

Title: Freezes then breaks.
Review: Left it running 24/7 in my semi truck for 4 days, opened to get things out a few times a day, today it went down into the low 30s and when I opened it the plastic shielding around the fan part, had ice buildup on it so I unplugged it to let it in freeze, after about 6 hours I plugged it back in and it started making a clanging noise like something was hitting the fan so I immedietly unplugged it, and thinking it might of just been ice I unplugged for the rest of my shift to let it melt, so 10 hours of it thawing, and when I plugged it back in the fan made a noise like it was trying to spin but it wouldn’t spin. I think it may have gotten moisture damage. Luckily it was within the Amazon return period so I got my money back. Don’t recommend.

Title: Works better than expected
Review: So, we travel a lot and just got a new CX-70 which has a 12 volt plug in the way back. We have done 2 long trips with it and it works great keeping everything cool. It is a bit noisy (like very light rood noise) it's not horrible. The fan always runs. So be sure to plug it if you are leaving your cars for a long time. You will need to purchase the 100w for house plug in - which is wise to do to have it get cool the night before your trip. This cooler is now a key part of your road trip gear. 5-stars

Review: It is a nice size to fit on the car floor between the front and rear seats. It works well and the cooling fan is on top which makes it easy to keep clear of obstructions. If you start it up with warm pop in it, it will take a couple hours to cool them but if things are cold with you start it, it works well.
