Alpicool T60 Dual Temperature Control 12 Volt Refrigerator 63 Quart Portable Car Fridge Freezer (-4°F~68°F) for Truck, RV, Boat, Camping and Travel

After reading reviews and considering price and features, I purchased this product for an extended trip out west. I was a little cynical that it would be able to maintain the temperatures as well as it did, especially the frozen side since my travel coincided with hot environmental temperatures. The product worked as described and I am very happy. There was only one incident - described below - that gave me pause. Before taking on your trip, plug it in the night before, set the temperatures, place in vehicle, then fill with your food items. Since I was in a car and tried to limit moving it in and out, I purchased a 100 foot extension cord so it could be plugged in to 110.The cord for the lighter plug in was plenty long to reach from the back seat to the front. To keep the cooler level during the trip, I placed wood in the seat with a small piece of plywood. To keep the cooler out of the sun, I used a car shade.PROS- Maintained temperature for both sides. It kept fruit and ice frozen. Kept milk and water nice and cold.- Easy to set up and use- Spacious enough to purchase food and keep water cold so as not to constantly eat at restaurants.CONSAfter using it, I do not really have any true cons, just being picky; however, during the drive through the mountains that basically had switch backs, the unit stopped working. I was going to leave it in the car but carried it in the house, plugged it in to various outlets and it still did not come back on. I left it unplugged and turned off for a couple of hours and it came back on. I can only surmise that the constant back and forth in the mountains affected the compressor. I would suggest if you are traveling through the mountains with many sharp curves, turn off and leave off for a while just as it said when arriving new.The only true con is that there is only one lid (but I understand why). So when you open to get items out of the frig side and leave the lid up for an extended period of time, the freezer side is exposed. I brought along extra 1 inch foam to insulate the cooler during the drive. I placed the insulation over the freezer side while the lids was up - perfect!

Great performance for the cost compared to competitors. The quality really seems to be here, several other reviews of previous versions of this model can be found on youtube from folks who have had basically this alpicool unit for OVER 4 years and zero issues - so we too pulled the trigger. We have been using this for 6+ months now without any issues or complaints... just praise. It sits in the back of our SUV and we use it while grocery shopping as it allows to keep the essentials - like Ice Cream - frozen until we get home. Our drive is on average about 40+ min from home to the stores so this has been a wonderful change for us. It has also given us the flexibility to stop after shopping and go into a restaurant for dinner and such.We use the 115v adapter that comes with it (also comes with a 12v adapter if you only have that in your vehicle) while plugged into the back of our vehicle (which has a built in inverter). We do not have this on a "always on" battery or connection so when we turn the car off, it turns off. This has NOT been an issue even when we go in to eat at a restaurant for up to a couple of hours. We have done this several times on the hot summer days and after having the unit already be at 5F or so when we stopped the car and when we return its usually around 40-50F or so and cools right back down very quick.We use all the features listed on this - from the echo cool mode to the max cool which can rapidly cool the unit from 85F to -5F in less than 20 min on max cool. We change it via their bluetooth app when we drive in to do grocery shopping. Although the divider lets us split compartments to do freezer and fridge on opposite sides we have found that for the most part we take out the divider and just use it all as a freezer or fridge depending on what we get. If we don't do this some of the larger items such as steaks and meat packages do not fit.We have been very happy with this purchase and have recommended this to several of our friends. It has really helped change how we do grocery shopping since we live a ways out from the stores.

I am on my third alpicool cooler fridge. I have purchased 2 with the generic alpicool compressor, and 1 with the lg compressor.The t-60 has a dual zone refrigeration system that uses a single compressor and utilizes a valve to select where the refrigerant goes.This is the biggest cooler that you're going to fit between the seats of a freightliner cascadia (2019 generation) daycab, it’s snug between the back wall and the dash...I typically set mine at 38f for cold drinks and 4f for frozen food storage for supper.I love that it has wheels for the occasional times I need to pull it along the ground.This isn't that light empty, and has a Lot of room to make it stupid heavy when you load it up.I love that it has digital controls with a actual temperature setting and reading, and that you can have even more control when you connect to it via the app. It really doesn't draw much power when running, which helps.The drain plug is a nice addition for cleaning.Unfortunately customer support seems to have diminished over time, they were ready to help with my first cooler, but when the second one failed after 4 months I couldn't even get a response. Hopefully the manufacturer will see this review and re-evaluate, given it's durability issues....*Update, 4 months in and lgt-60 has also FAILED.This is a lot of money for such a short term solution. Further inspection revealed wires corroded out on the cf-55 (my first alpicool) after over 3 years of service.
