This has been the best investment in equipment as we have been making multiple cross country road trips in our van. No more buying of ice cubes that melt and soak my food. In particular, I appreciate that it automatically turns off, so it will never drain my car battery. Perfect size for our 2-person needs. For one person I could do with a size smaller. I have had it for several years, it is still going strong and I have proudly shown it to many people.
Rattles on today's bumpy roads, slow to cool, and VERY poorly insulated resulting in additional power drain. Doubt it will last a day past warranty and no doubt coverage will be denied based on the rattle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very efficient, quiet, stores a lot of volume. Highly recommended. This will be replacing our traditional coolers.
One negative point, the ice maker is semi-misleading. The space allocated to making ice is very small. Ice cubes that you make are made through a tray, and they’re the size of sugar cubes. But it’s ice, none-the-less.
