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

Koolatron Compact Kooler January 15, 2010 John S. Stegall (Cuba, AL, US) Koolatron Compact KoolerI ordered a new Koolatron Compact Kooler but received a factory rebuilt instead. Amazon adjusted the price but the cooler would not work. I attempted to contact Koolatron via telephone and email without success. I finally repaired the cooler myself and it now works fine. The warranty is worthless!
Second one works November 28, 2009 mom of three (New England) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We purchased this for my husband who is a professional truck driver. Unit was intended to replace his old coleman. The first Koolatron unit worked for a few days then nothing. Completely inoperable. Amazon was excellent about getting us a new unit very quickly and several months later the replacement unit is working as it should. My husband appreciates the smaller size that easily fits in back of his seats, in his closet etc. We restock his truck every weekend so the more compact size was not an issue for us. The unit keeps a weeks worth of food at a safe temp. We would recommend this model.
Received Koolatron in 1 DAY BUT WITHOUT AUTO / D/C PLUG!!!! October 15, 2009 Koolatron Purchaser (Houston, TX) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am greatly upset, I received this item within 24 hours of ordering it which was INSANELY fast delivery, however I received it WITHOUT ANY PLUG!!!! I cannot use this item AT ALL. It is marketed/advertised that it comes with an AUTO / D/C plug included to plug in and use in your car, and if you wanted to buy the optional A/C HOUSE plug it was sold seperately. It is supposed to come with the AUTO DC plug, which I am shocked and pisssed off it didn't. I am returning this ASAP and will never order another product from this company ever.
First Koolatron was defective, 2nd one we have not used yet October 12, 2009 M. Johnson (Cogan Station, PA) Purchased the Koolatron Compact Kooler. Used it for a weekend (worked great)and then it stopped working. The cord that plugs into the car became extremely hot, too hot to handle. Unplugged it and the next time we went to use it, it didn't work. Replaced the fuses several times in the plug and each time we plugged it in, the fuse blew. Contacted Amazon and they sent a new one out right away and we sent the other one back. Have not had the opportunity to use the new one yet. Hopefully it works longer than the first one.
Happy as I can be October 7, 2009 A. Kim 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been very happy with my purchase. My Koolatron kept drinks and snacks very cold with no problem. As other reviewers have already noted you need to power up the unit roughly 12 hours prior to loading it with items you want to keep it cold. This unit is not a refrigerator so if you pack it with items not chilled already in refrigerator then it will be a long time before things get cold.
Whether my unit will be reliable long term I cannot say but on my recent use I have used it four days straight without a problem.
