After doing a lot of comparison shopping on all similar coolers listed on Amazon. I went with this one and I'm really glad I did. One of the first things I noticed, even before considering this unit, was that it was the only one given an "A" rating on Fakespot. Meaning all the reviews were real and honest. So I felt comfortable in getting the same satisfaction with this product as other reported.I was also very impressed with the performance of this unit. I was amazed at how fast it cooled down and how quiet it is! I plugged it into an AC outlet and after 3 mins it was getting cold already. After letting it run 20 minutes, it was ice cold. I noted the tempurature before starting and I calculated it to be cooling at one degree every 40 seconds!I also did another test using the DC connection (all electrical connections come with the unit). The DC mode took a bit longer, but thats to be expected. It is important to note the compresser will need to run about six minutes before you start to see the temperature going down. The starting temperature was 68 degrees (room temp) to start. In 10 minutes it dropped to 64 degrees. Another 10 minutes brought it to 46 degrees and the final 10 minutes got the temperature to 32 degrees (you can set this lower). So it dropped 36 degrees in 30 minutes. Pretty good, I'd say. The power usage was 48 watts while running. After it attained the desired temp, it only kicked on for about a minute every 20 minutes. Its super quiet too.Another thing I noticed that was not in the description, but might come in handy. The hinges and door chain are interchangeable so that you can easily change the opening direction of the lid. Meaning if there are space constraints while tailgating, for example, you can put the long side into your vehicle and still conveniently access opening the lid.Overall its a great cooler and everything it claims to be.I'm glad this company hasn't resorted to fake reviews like so many others. If you purchase this unit, I hope
