Consider investing in alternative product
5 years ago
I purchased this product in 2006 and had it for 14 fantastic years of consistent and wonderful use . When the fan gave out on the 2006 model, I did not hesitate to replace with same model. After 4 months of intermittent use the fan on the new one gave out - okay it happens. I replaced the 4 month old one and began using cooler number 3. After less than 48 hours of cooling, the fan died. Clearly this product is not what it used to be. I didn't have a bad thing to say about the 2006 version and I don't have a good thing to say about the 2020 version. I didn't abuse the 2020 versions, I just filled them half full and tried to use. CT was great about refunding my original purchase price but I was frustrated by 2 failed efforts to get a reliable cooling/heating product
No, I do not recommend this product.

Bruit de ventilateur
5 years ago
Bonjour est-ce normal d'avoir un bruit de ventilateur fatiguant a long terme peut-etre un probleme ?
It worked ok for the first season, but stopped cooling or heating quickly. Was advised that it would cost more to repair than to replace. Needless to say I won't be replacing with the same. This is now an additional piece of plastic garbage

Worst thing I have every purchased
7 years ago
I bought this last week and after opened the box I opened the little lid and its plastic hinge broke off. I glues it together hoping things would be ok. Then the first time I tried to move the unit with the pull handle it broke off totally as soon as I lifted it up. After closing the bigger lid the switch fell out.

Pas l'idéal
8 years ago
Personnellement j'ai déjà essayé deux modèle de ce genre, et j'ai plutôt opté pour un vrai petit frigo 45 l, avec petit espace congélateur, monté avec un ondulateur 800 watts, pas tellement plus dispendieux, les deux, frigo et ondulateur , que la glaciere 12 volt.
Et cela est vraiment très efficace, même pour un arrêt de 1 heure, le frigo continue, on peut le laisser fonctionné, l'ondulateur vas fermé le circuit avant de rendre votre batterie trop faible pour re-démarrer
Arrivé au camping, je branche, et j'ai toute ma nourriture bien froide et dans le petit compartiment. du congelé.
Bien sûr le format du petit frigo est différent d'une glacière, genre 18'' x 18'' x 20'' de haut, mais beaucoup mieux et plus facile ce servir dans un vrai frigo, meilleur gestion des aliments.

A: Burned out, or blew a fuse? There is a fuse in the 12V cord. I recently needed to replace it. Canadian Tire does not sell replacement fuses. Found at Source (former Radio Shack)

A: On the “HOT” setting, the temperature inside the cooler can reach a maximum of +65C. The “cooler” can be used to keep foodstuff hot for an extended period of time. For best results, use the cooler with the Mobicool Universal AC/DC indoor adaptor (CTC # 37-0149). The adaptor can be used to connect the unit to household current (110v) and heat up the cooler before putting the container with the food inside the unit. It can also be used during stop-over at a hotel etc.

Q: Combien de temps avant que ce soit froid?
Une fois branchée dans l'auto, ça prend combien de temps avant que la glacière soit assez froide pour conserver les aliments au frais. Je veux m'en servir dans l'auto lorsque je fais mon épicerie.
A: Ce produit est une glacière thermoélectrique. Elle refroidit jusqu'à 20C sous la température ambiante de la pièce. Après un certain temps, la température devrait déscendre à environs 5C. Les éléments de refroidissement produisent de l'air froide et repousse l'air chaude. La période de temps que ça prend à refroidir dépends de ce que vous y mettez dedans et la température dans la voiture. Donc cela peut prendre 1 heure à refroidir.
Afin d'améliorer la perfomance de ce produit, vous pouvez utiliser l'adapteur 110AC/12V DC (37-0149) pour pré-refroidir la glacière. De cette façon, la glacière peut être branchée au mur et elle sera déjà refroidie avant le départ de votre voyage.
Q: Will it keep frozen food frozen for 3 or 4 hours?
Thinking about buying this for transporting groceries from supermarket when shopping in city - mostly to keep frozen items frozen. Would possibly be looking at 3 to 5 hours in travel & shopping time.

Q: Can the cooler be left outside even in the rain
7 years ago
1 Answer
A: This is an electrical cooler. To prevent damage to the electrical components, the cooler should be protected from moisture, especially rain. Any moisture inside the cooler, should be wiped up to prevent damage. It is possible to store ice cubes in the cooler, but they should be placed in a sealed container / zip bag.
