VEVOR 10 Quart 12 Volt Portable Mini Freezer Car Compressor Fridge Cooler

Disclaimer: I own a slightly larger Dominic that I paid nearly 3-4x the price for a handful of years ago that has similar features (excepting it does not have BT control). - Plus among the smallest compressor freezer/fridges @ 10L and while costing 2-3x the 'cooler/warmer' type portable units, these compressor models will work at just about any temperature and work FAST. - Speaking of fast, I loaded up 4 bottles of water (71F) and set the unit for 34F and MAX. It cooled to the set point in a mere 30min!! Impressive! - Unit comes with BOTH a 12/24V cord for standard car (or power block) Lighter outlet AND a separate AC adapter cord (and power brick) that can be plugged into a household wall outlet. - Noise wise, it barely makes any while doing the cooling. - Given that just about everything is made in China these days, this unit offers similar (+more) features of more expensive brands at a fraction of the cost. - Minus: while it is a bit heavier than I was hoping my only gripe is that the 16oz water bottles I bought for it have to be set in on their side rather than standing up because of the lack of depth in the compartment. However 16oz and 12oz cans can be fitted standing up. - While the lid is described as 'latching' I was assuming there would be a level or button to press but it is only a 'friction' type (bumps on the lid) holding it closed. - I thought of grabbing a image of a poorly installed screw in the bottom which appears to have split the plastic case. Not a big deal but speaks to the workmanship of the unit. - The unit has 4 large circle indentations on the bottom that would be perfect for rubber feet, something that they could of included from the factory but at this price point it is understandable that they did not. Personally, I plan on having this unit travel with me on the passenger seat of my car or truck. When I have a companion it will plug in and set behind the front seats so my passenger can play 'drink tender' while traveling. After a bit of use/testing a few additional comments: With a set point of 34F and ~68-72F ambient around the unit it maintained 32-38F over a 14hr test period. It would seem that it over shoots a bit on the cooling and waits 3-4F before starting a cooling cycle. Just for kicks and grins I plugged it into a ~300Wh power brick during this time which drew ~40% of the bricks capacity over 14 hour period. (fridge/freeze set to 34F and ECO cooling) Granted I was not taking items in/out of it during this time and it was indoors, out of direct sun and my house was ~68-72F during this period. Users wishing to use a power brick to operate this unit would need to consider ether bricks with higher storage capacity and/or methods of replenishing the power bricks charge. Of note thankfully if the unit is ON, power cycling the source power (IE: unplugging and replugging the unit back in) the unit defaults to ON. So if using a switched car lighter output the fridge/freezer will automatically turn back on after refueling and/or cycling the car/truck on/off/on. *** 6/16/2024 Update *** Ok, I'll admit that I DO NOT use this 24/7 however it basically 'lives' on the passenger seat of my truck. With that said it gets used while traveling which amounts to a few hours a handful or more times a month. :) - The 'friction lock' on the lid was more annoying then useful so early on I grabbed a knife and cut the 'bumps' on the lid off so that it can be opened/closed freely+easy with one hand. - In my installation the cab has outlets in the front AND back seats so I just routed the power cord to the back seat outlet so I could use the dash outlet for other electronics. - While cute/novel the BT function is not something I used beyond the initial inspection/setup. - If I were to choose again I'd be looking at models where the beverages could be STANDING UP rather than laying down. I'll generally carry 3 types of beverages so to avoid 'digging' lay them inside A/B/C on top of A/B/C. :) My unit has lived an easy life on the passenger seat of my truck and turns on when ever I start my truck. No matter the ambient temp of the CAB it will cool the drinks inside the fridge/freezer to the set point < 30min. *** Warning Note *** While this MIGHT BE an issue with ALL "Compressor Fridge/Freezers" as they all have a similar fairly USELESS "low voltage disconnect" that is intended to protect your battery from over discharge. IMHO: from practical experience even the 'high' setting allows your vehicle battery to run to far down. Even worse is if you paired one of these devices with a LFP battery which has a discharge curve making even a +12.5V disconnect TO LATE!! These compressor fridge/freezers ought to be only used on a SWITCHED outlet (that turns OFF when the engine is not running!), watched/monitored carefully when the engine is not running OR simply UNPLUGGED when the engine is not running. I see that the price for the 10Qt has even DROPPED since I bought my copy.

Works really well in both the car, and in the office, to keep items very cold (just above or below freezing temperatures). The construction Durability is fairly rugged, the temperature controls are easy to understand, it makes very little noise, it is sold at a good price. And requires minimal power from its source.

Gets cold in a reasonable amount of time. Will keep cool overnight when vehicle is off. Has voltage cutout so doesn't kill you battery. I use it for beverages and snacks daily and unlike a cooler, needs nothing from me on a routine basis. It sits on my passenger seat, keeps stuff cold, doesn't kill my battery, holds enough that I can just keep it stocked and just flat works. I've used it daily for months.....and it's quiet enough that it isn't annoying. Hard to ask for more than that. I do like that it comes with an AC cable as well should I want to bring it inside.

I have been so pleased with this portable fridge/freezer I had to write a review. I have been using it every Saturday for the farmers market for about two years now. I make all natural body products and I send my customers home with ice packs so their products don’t melt. This faithfully keeps my ice frozen and the ice is even still solid when I get back from my hour commute home. The seal is great and I can always rely on this to get me through the hottest days. Extra tips for someone using it for this purpose: I use a 350 watt power box for a 6 hour market and always have about 20% battery left. Put extra ice sheets or cold towels in there to wrap around your neck on the hottest of days, then share with your neighbors! :)

Worked fine, for all of 3 days! After that, it randomly shut down. Ambient temperature was 67 degrees in the room. Freezer would start, then in a few minutes would chirp and shut down. Fuse is good and well seated, tried multiple wall sockets. Regardless of temperature it is set to, it shuts down. Used in a well ventilated spot, sitting level,etc.

Works well, and the noise doesn’t bother me.

Did not work, cost me $36.0 to return it to the company. Didn't even get a response! Not a great company to deal with! I know Amazon is better than this.
