Koolatron KCR40B 1.7 Cubic Foot (48L) AC/DC Electric Heat Pipe Compact Fridge

Works great! We used this temporarily for camping and it was everything we needed.

Great price product works great my husband bought it for his shop.

We purchased this fridge with hopes it would work for us as full time sailboat liveaboards. Unfortunately we can't afford the power it needs. We think it would have stayed cold enough though. Would be great for truck, rv, or dorm.

The door magnet strip needs to be stronger to keep the door closed when the vehical is in motion

I had high hopes for this hi-tech mini-fridge and even though it works well at room temperature, it has some flaws that eventually made me return it. The number one feature I was looking for was silent operation, it's far from that. It has two external fans and one internal fan that together can be pretty noisy. The internal fan creates even temperature throughout the interior which is a great feature. However, the external fans are on continuously on AC power, smoothly varying speed according to the required rate of cooling. On DC power, they turn on and off. But even worse on DC power, an internal relay sounds like a buzzer for 1-second when the fans turn off. Then there are the thin walls and door which are poorly insulated. You can feel them get colder on the outside as the unit cools inside. It did eventually cool down inside to 2F after running overnight in a room at 72F. The fans could be heard continuously even at slow speeds on AC power all night long. The technology in it works, the clever passive radiator removes heat from semiconductor cooling element very efficiently. The biggest feature of this fridge is it's low power consumption. It's great under ideal conditions but won't work as well in warmer environments. It turned out to be a bad choice of fridge for using in a camper due to the noise and poor insulation. I would have to keep the interior temperature at room temperature for this fridge to work properly. Originally ordered online, which arrived in just two days in excellent condition. I decided to return it which went without a hitch at my local store.

THE FRIG CAME WITH SHRINK WRAP WHICH WAS GOOD UNTIL I COMPLETELY UNWRAPPED IT ONLY TO SEE THAT IT CAME WITH NO SHELVES. AFTER CONTACTING THEM AND TELLING ME THAT THE VENDOR WILL ACCEPT A RETURN OR A PARTIAL REFUND, I SUGGESTED A SHELF BE SENT OUT TO ME AND THEY THEN GOT BACK TO ME SAYING OK...SEVERAL WEEKS, LIKE 2 MONTHS AND STILL NO SHELF OR RESOLVE. AS OF TODAY, 7/27/23 I ISSUED A CREDIT DISPUTE AND WILL WIN WITH MY CREDIT COMPANY.

Purchased this item for my husband's Semi unfortunately when I had it shipped to the house it arrived broken. Fan was shattered inside and the metal backing was bent in. I expected this item to have some weight to it but its pretty light and flemsy for how much its priced at.

This refrigerator is actually very loud due to the fan noise, which is mostly constant because the interior temperature is merely cool and not sustainably cold. This type of refrigeration is not going to last because it doesn't work good enough. Unit was taken out of service after less than two weeks. Also the plastic interior smells.
