Overall, a good product at a good price, but it has limitations. The main one is that it does not achieve 40 deg. F temperature. Here’s how I tested it: —I placed the cooler inside the house at 74 deg. F +/- 1 deg. F —I put 1 gal of distilled water inside the cooler. (It’s what I had.). I wanted to put some mass into the cooler to make it easier to measure the temperature more accurately. —I turned it on (AC power) and walked away. —After 24 hours, the temperature of the water was 50 deg. F. —After 48 hours, the temperature of the water was 48 deg. F. At this point I terminated the test. I think if this cooler is left in the back end of a covered truck in the summer in the sun where the truck got, say, 110 deg. F, you’d never get even close to 50 deg. F inside. BUT, I do think that for the price it’s a good buy. Keep in mind this does not have a compressor it in it. It has a thermo-electric heat sink. So, I think it would be a great purchase for keeping non-animal products cool. I would not put animal products (eg, meat, dairy, eggs) inside it and expect them to last. But for veggies, drinks, bread—a good buy, especially at the price. I’m keeping mine, but do not plan to buy a second. Maybe it’s 4 stars, not 3, but the fact that they advertise it achieves 40 deg. When it clearly will not, indicates some small deception, so 3 stars. UPDATE 5 MONTHS LATER: We purchased this and then sold our home and moved into an RV. We put all our drinks and ran this cooler FULL TIME for 5 months as if it were a second fridge. Worked flawlessly, except when the heat sink froze over (my fault). While it didn’t keep our drinks super cold, they were very drinkable. And the fact that it ran full time for 5 months shows its reliability. I wouldn’t put animal products in here for long term (ok for short durations), for drinks and veggies, a great product. Upgraded to 5 stars because of its reliability and its ability to keep drinks reasonably cold. Glad I purchased this product!

Great for dorm use or camp. Also for travel-both keeping things cool or warming. I was very happy with my purchase!

I used this cooler three days camping on cool and it worked great. I used the hot setting another day to take a meal to a friend who had just had surgery and it worked great. Brought it out to use again to go camping and the darn thing won’t work. Of course it’s past the return date so that was a waste of money. Poor Quality

This cooler holds a lot. What I especially like are the cords. They are contained in a storage compartment on top. They are attached to the cooler so you won't lose them. What a plus in this design. They wheels are sturdy so you don't have to carry the cooler to your car. Caution: You still will have to lift it up...lol. We did not try to warm setting, another plus, so I have no opinion other than I can't think why I would use it. The downside of this cooler is that both my husband and I did not feel it kept the meats cold enough in our hotel room even pluggged in.. He added ice to the cooler and it did melt in the bag. I did not have a thermometer to check the temperature so we were cautious. Recommend to get one if you plan to put sandwiches in the cooler. It's a quiet cooler even plugged in the car. I would give it a 4.5 but not a 5. I'm usually generous on my reviews.

We used this cooler at our cabin last weekend which doesn't have a fridge yet. It worked pretty well, kept the food cold, including chicken legs. Not as cold as a fridge but I tested it before we left and sitting in room temperature, I put some items inside and it got down to around 48 degrees. I like the dual plug options, we kept it running in the car during the two hour drive. Very happy with it. Update: a year plus later and still love this cooler. For best performance, pre-cool it by plugging it in overnight full of frozen ice packs. After filling it with food, add ice packs if you have room. Keep it plugged in while driving, plug it in at your destination, and it's as good as a micro fridge.

Our home refrigerator died and we had just purchased deli and cheese at the store in addition to all the other stuff In there. We had no choice but to get our 4 year old Ivation cooler out of the garage and use it. I was very worried because of the technology and because we hadn’t used it in a long time. The cooler kept our food at 39-40 degrees for over a week until our new refrigerator could be delivered. Unfortunately it’s not a freezer so we had to throw away the frozen stuff. But as a temporary fridge it worked great for over a week! Very impressive!

This plug-in cooler is just the right size to ride on the back seat and hold all of our cold stuff without the mess and bother of ice. Both the household cord and the vehicle plug work fine, and the cooler holds a good temperature. It runs nearly silently. The interior is quite large, with removable dividers to hold things in place during moving. It is easy to clean, being smooth and sealed. The only negative comment I have is that the plug for car use does get extremely hot during use, and will burn you after being unplugged, so be careful! Overall, a very useful cooler, and one that I foresee becoming a favorite for family travel.

I was surprised how well it works. There was literelly some ice in the bottom when we used it the first time. If you don't "precool" it with ice blocks or cold foods, it takes 3 or 4 hours to really get cold. But it seems to keep the food cold enough for camping without the mess of and ice chest. We can plug it into the campsite power or the truck outlets when we are travelling. Kind of pricey, but we splurged on it to make our "glamping" easier. It has a heat function as well, which my husband found out by accident seems to work really well. That may come in handy when taking meals to friends on a meal train. The handles and wheels like a regular tailgate cooler are a nice touch. Would probably make a nice tailgating refrigerator.

Excelente estoy feliz con ella. Me ha servido muchísimo y para mis medicamentos. Es más de lo que esperaba

Cette glacière est idéale pour toutes les occasions! Elle se recharge dans la voiture ou dans une prise. Elle peut refroidir ou réchauffer selon vos besoins. Nous avons reçu une première glacière défectueuse, mais une nouvelle nous a été livrée moins d’une semaine plus tard! Bravo au service à la clientèle!

LE FALTA MAS Y MEJOR CAPACIDAD DE ENFRIAMIENTO, LA MAS BAJA TEMPERATURA ES DE 6 CRADOS CENTIGRADOS.

This is exactly what I wanted. I had the exact same cooler/warmer I purchased 8 years ago that stopped working. We like to camp regularly and it is great. Put in the food plug it into the car and when you get to the campsite plug it in to the power keep the food and the BEER COLD. The warming Feature is great when you have a large dinner party and you want to keep the dishes warm. My wife just loves it helps keeping all the food you want to serve HOT

Nous avons acheté cet article pour la voiture lorsque nous avons une très longue route à faire, nous l’avons branché à la maison et cela semble être correct, cependant ce n’est pas très froid, cela garde tempéré correct, à suivre lorsque nous prendrons la route
