Amazon.com Review:
Coolers are usually large and unwieldy, which is why Koolatron developed the Compact Kooler, specially designed to fit in the snug spaces behind the seats of many cars, trucks, and vans. Like many of Koolatron's coolers, this unit features a 12-volt cooling system that plugs into a car's cigarette lighter. The cooler's motor blows cold air over your food and beverages, keeping them 40 degrees F cooler than the outside temperature. The cooler also doubles as a warmer, if you'd rather keep the contents toasty. Outside of the car or truck, the cooler is still versatile, with a swinging, foldaway handle for easy portage and a latchless lid that opens with one hand. Other handy features include a convenient cord wrap and a unique storage spot for the unplugged cigarette lighter. Despite the unit's compact size and weight (only 9 pounds), it can still hold up to 23 12-ounce soft drinks. --Rivers Janssen

- Nice compact cooler
It is a very nice compact cooler, an AC/DC adapter is must. We have used it once for a short trip ( 4 hrs). It hold up the drinks and milk for babies as cold as we expected it to be.

- AC Adaptor
I bought this cooler-heater together with an AC Adapter through Amazon.
Subsequently I read where their AC Adapter caused fires.
I wrote to Koolatron to see if theyhad modified the Adapter to prevent these fires and they refused to answer me.
I am not sure why Amazon still carries the product under these circumstances.

- Works great but with design flaw
My husband and I are over-the-road truck drivers. We keep this cooler in the top bunk which is the hottest part of the truck yet it still does a great job of keeping things cool. The size is perfect for 1/2 gallon cartons or cans of pop stacked two high. My only gripe is a design flaw which does not protect the fan. There is no reinforcement around the fan (such as styrofoam as in our other cooler) so if something happens to fall against the fan side of the unit, the fan is prevented from spinning ... Read More
Rating: - Koolatron cooler
I don't know how this got on my list of things to review. I have never owned one. I do have two other Koolatron coolers, and they are great. One is over 30 years old and still going. I gave this a 5 star rating because Koolatron makes 5 star products.
Rating: - Works well
I use this for keeping my coffee warm while on the road. I will usually get 3 large containers and keep 2 in the cooler using the heat to keep them hot.
I noticed that the containers are wet along with the holders I put inside to hold the containers in place.Not sure why it does this but it does keep the coffee hot for several hours even if you unplug it after a half hour.
Other than the moister it works like I wanted.
