UPDATE: Reports of difficulty connecting to phone Bluetooth are accurate. Biggest tip is use the QZsmart app (scanning the QR code was problematic for me as reader kept going to wrong app while searching android play store didn't find the app either) and be on a 2.4Gz network with your phone (also problematic as I forget my 2.4G extender password). But once resolved setup was fairly easy. The app is intuitive and biggest advantage is being able to monitor the cooler while driving to make sure it is working properly in in the cargo area where you can't just glance at it. Otherwise, you might get an unwelcome surprise when you stop somewhere only to find out the cooler was not working.I tested the cooler immediately after delivery with the assumption that the cooler was only transported in the upright position, so maybe these test results are skewed if the refrigerant needs to settle.After 30 minutes on house power: The refrigerator section reached the set temperature of 40 degrees (per the led indicator), although the bottle of water inside only felt cool, not cold. The freezer section reached an indicated 33 degrees of the set temperature of 20 degrees. The bottle of water inside was only cool and no where near freezing.After 60 minutes on house power: The refrigerator section maintained the set temperature of 40 degrees and the bottle of water inside felt chilled enough for a refreshingly cool drink. The freezer section reached the 20 degree set temperature. The bottle of water inside was chilled but still along way from starting to freeze.Moved cooler to idling Tacoma truck bed and plugged into the 110V 400W Max / 100W Min bed outlet. After additional 30 minutes (90 mins total) the cooler display read 40/30 degrees. The outside temperature was 80 degrees and the truck was idling in the sun with cab A/C running. The truck bed has a BakFlip4 cover so the cooler was not in direct sunlight. I'm guessing that at driving speeds the outlet would produce higher watts and the cooler would do better.Moved cooler to idling RAV4 and plugged into 12V/120W cargo outlet for another 30 minutes. The outside temperature was 80 degrees and the RAV was idling in the sun with A/C running. After 30 minutes the temperature was 40/20 degrees. Interesting that the cooler did better with RAV4 12V/120W outlet at idle than the Tacoma 110V bed outlet at idle. Maybe due to cargo area getting A/C benefit.Both bottles of water were very chilled at the end of two hours. The water in the freezer was nowhere near freezing but maybe a little colder than the bottle in the refrigerator side. Guessing that freezing will take 5 to 6+ hours. When camping it will run on a 3500W generator or shore power. No error codes were ever thrown. Overall I'm satisfied. If this cooler operates well for years it will be worth the money.

The first thing you notice about this cooler is the contemporary but current design. The latch is spring loaded locking the lid shut until you want to open it. You can open with one hand and requires little pressure. The interior removable basket is made out of coated metal and there is a drain plug at the bottom for easy cleaning and or defrosting. This cooler will go down to the negatives making it a freezer if needed.It comes with a standard plug as well as a cigarette lighter type adapter for most vehicles. I am excited to use it in the trips to Costco where I can plug it in to my Rivian R1S directly in the back!The wheels are a great option to use if you are going to the beach or camping or something taking items into the house from the grocery store.One very useful option is you can get the app and control the cooler from your phone either iOS or android connected via Bluetooth! I tested the cooler immediately upon arrival and within 10 minutes it cooled from 81° to 40°. It was so quiet I had to bend down and listen to verify that it was even on!The control pad is very straightforward with a temperature up or down power on or off and the settings menu, which helps you pair your telephone to the cooler below. The power button is a USB output for charging your devices on the go!

Took this bad boy on a 7+ hour road trip and wow—it crushed it! No ice, no mess, just plug it in and go. I packed it the night before, and everything stayed nice and chilly. It has a freezer mode, but I stuck with fridge mode. The app is super handy—lets me control the temp, power it on/off, and even adjust battery settings. When we got to our destination, I just swapped it from the car plug to the wall. Easy peasy! It’s quiet, spacious, and just works. Totally happy with it!

I've had this for a week and put it through its paces. It's great. The temperature setting isn't free of fluctuation even if unopened, but stays within range.In general:Direct Expansion gas compression (DX) is the current best form of freezing on the market today. Absorprion fridges, often used in RVs are limited to ±20°F from abient outside air temperature (OAT) so on a hot day in Arizona it won't keep ice or ice cream usable, and fish and poultry is useless as well. They also have to be kept level to work.THIS unit has a real DX compressor, real gas so the state transitions (liquid to gas absorbing the heat, gas to liquid being compressed after releasing the heat and so on. Give it 8" clearance in the back, 4" on the sides, 12+ VDC to run (it comes with a car adapter and a home voltage adapter)..For car users, set the voltage sensitivity to H (High). It will run when the car is on, and if it doesn't run when the car is off than (you need a new battery for the car and) set it to M (medium) for a lower threshold to shut off.The cooler itself is great. It keeps things cool. It lacks rubber straps to hold the lid tight but the lid handle locks so it's mostly as good. It is NOT an Igloo. It works well enough.It will not maintain the set temperature. i put it at -5°F freezer 34°F fridge. It did freeze my 4oz water, but wentup to 15°F in the freeezer to do it. That's still below the freezing temperature of water, but a 10°F variance is something I'd want to be aware of... except if I'd bought a fridge/freezer where the temp goes from "1-5" and you don't really know what it ever is. This is an improvement.Power utilization is good.. fit and finish is awesome. The lid stays shut. The 110VAC adapter works great. My remaining projects are:1. Create a "mount" for it in the back seat so it doesn't "walk away" from my truck.2. Permanently wire it in. The cigarette lighter output is busy with a 3-way Y-adapter, a Valentine 1, a Garmin 5i, and a USB charger for the phone.Would I recommend this to others: YESWould I buy it again: If we get that RV trailer we've been talking about, YESWould I sell it to friends knowing they'll hunt me down if I rip them off: YESIf the zombie apocalypse was happening, other than my weapons would I take this: YESIf I could DIY make this better:1. Add insulation. As I said, it's not an igloo, and it cost energy to cool the space. If you're willing to reduce the space and put some foam or other insulation you'll not only save on power, but it will maintain temps great.2. Layer the food and put some for of clear vinyl between them. Put most used stuff on top. Some of this is "general cooler stuff" but now that you're working a compressor it matters more. That way you're not introducing ambient (hot) air into the cold box.3. Add a $60 refrigerator icemaker to the freezer side. Feed it water through a tube and a bottle, and feed it electricity... where there is a bit of a problem. You see, fridge replacement icemaker units are $50-$60... but they run on 120VAC. In a car, RV, boat, or aircraft you have 12 or 24VDC. You can use an inverter but there's a huge inefficiency there. So I'm looking to buy one, gut the motor, find a 12VDC motor that does the same job, and mount that in. There's a guy on youtube that mounted an icemaker in his cooler. Youtbe-search it (can't link to it here). The point is that installing an icemaker in a cooler is... well... cool... but installing it in a freezer means your cubes will stay frozen forever. Now if there was only a soda dispenser on top!
