Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Works well. Good size. I've used coolers like this for over 20 years in a tractor trailer. Keep your expectations realistic, and they work well. These coolers draw around 4 amps. Igloo coolers are also sold at two of the larger Truck Stop chains, but the Amazon price is better. In a pinch you can usually find a replacement power cord at the TA/Petro truck stops. The cooler will take 4-5 hours to cool down initially from 'warm'. Don't fill it with warm items and plug it in, expecting miracles. You can avoid the ice problems you sometimes experience by wiping out any moisture that accumulates in the cooler when it's running over long periods of time.. As an OTR trucker, I'll unplug my cooler for a few hours periodically, let it 'drefrost' somewhat, and wipe it out with a few paper towers. I try to keep some bottled water or canned soda as a base layer in the bottom of the cooler. This helps extend the carry over capacity of the cooler it it's unplugged for a few hours. If you are keeping perishable items in the cooler, you'll want to make sure you check the cooler is running. The LED light on the power plug helps. I try to position the plug so I can see the LED light when driving, and also place my hand over the exhaust vent at times to feel that the fan is working. The fan, or fans, are the only moving parts in this type of cooler that will wear out, eventually. Using them in a truck, 300 days a year or more, I usually get 1-2 years of use before the fan dies, or slows enough it needs to be replaced.
