Koolatron Thermoelectric Iceless 12V Cooler Bag

arrived today im testing it now right out of the bag it smells like burnt electronics got bad reviews on the charger they recommend so got one rated to 30 amps with a fan, that had good reviews otherwise works as advertised it's cooling nicely gave it a day, smell dissipated works great, i have an oversized 12 volt 30 amp power supply so that runs cool, keeps contents nice and cool at under 50 deg f. 85 deg room temperature.

The design of the bag and the ability to cool from room temp and to keep bag contents cold is phenomenal...while the cord works. I bought the additional adapter (Koolatron Multi-Purpose 110AC to 12 Volts DC) so I could use the bag while traveling, both in the car and in a room setting. It worked well for about a week then it failed. My trouble shooting revealed that the cord that came with the bag that plugs into the car lighter failed. I tried to replace it with a Coleman cord but it didn't fit. Have returned both. So disappointed!

Just a great cooler. Works very well in the car and easily carried into motel room, etc. If you have an adapter you can plug it into the wall and don't even need to unload it. But the best part - this company is awesome! Thirteen months later we had problems with the part of the cord that plugs into the car outlet. I contacted the company for advice and they sent us a new power cord. I have never had a company with that extent of service. Great cooler, great company. Highly recommend.

I figured out why people are having issues with this item stopping working suddenly. I noticed when I was unplugging it that the plug was hot. A few hours later it stopped working. I the fuse inside the plug had blown, and when I disassembled the plug I saw that it had actually gotten hot enough to melt the inside of the plug, allowing it to short out. I happened to have another plug with heavier gauge wire and an online blade fuse, so I cut off the end that plugs into the cooler and wired it up to the new plug. The improvement in the operation of the cooler was immediately obvious- the fans spin faster, the cooler cools cooler, and the plug is no longer warm to the touch, even after operating all day long inside a warm vehicle. It's a decent cooler, too bad they used the cheapest possible power cord.

This cooler is trash, period. I rarely take time to write reviews—great or not so great, but I purchased this twice—one for me, one for a friend. Both of us were/are very disappointment. Seems the longer I had it, the less cold it would get or stay—no matter what the car temperature or weather. I believe it’s just a poorly manufactured product. So, needless to say, once I realized it wasn’t getting cold much AT ALL, I would sometimes stop and buy ice—WHICH MADE A MESS IN MY CAR EACH TIME ICE MELTED. Melting ice, wetness and eventually mold and smells, is exactly what I intended to AVOID but purchasing a thermoelectric cooler! Save yourself time and frustration and maybe pay a lil’ more for a better brand.

I love this soft sided cooler. It was perfect for my trip. I would have given five stars but the fuse in the DC charger became hot multiple time and ultimately blew. So I couldn’t use it continuously. It was plugged in my rental car and a lithium generator.

I love this cooler (mostly). We take many long trips in our truck and this works better for us than putting the ice packs in. It also leaves you a lot more room for drinks or food. It just plugs into the car and we keep it in the front with us. You should either cool the things you put in ahead of time or use ice packs at the beginning. Actually, we just stick the cooler in our freezer before we pack it. One problem to be aware of. It will run down your battery. Be careful about leaving it plugged in when you are not driving. Our car battery went dead because we spaced it and that was a drag.

A gift that gets used again and again! Paired with the wall outlet plug, this cooler is used in travel and when staying.

Used this on our 3000k road trip, kept the food and drinks nice and cool. Would recommend anyday

Vraiment bien qualité prix . La glacière est très efficace.

Arrived on time. Works well, maybe 15C below ambient but nit used in summer yet. Cooler unit outside so more room and less condensation inside. A little noisier than some but not intrusive. Bottom rigid panel tight fit, good for use, less so for folding

Great product what I expected

Great product works well. No controls though. I always use a cool pack or frozen water bottle to help cool at startup.
