Review: EXCELLENT VALUE, EXCELLENT BUILD QUALITY, SUPERB FOR STUDENTS IN HALLS - PROS: 1) EXCELLENT TEMPERATURE STABILITY WITH LOW ENERGY CONSUMPTION 2) QUICK TO REACH TEMPERATURE 3) VERY QUIET, ALMOST IMPERCEPTIBLE OPERATION 4) PERFECT CAPACITY (40L) FOR A WEEK'S WORTH OF MEAT/PERISHABLES 5) ROBUST, SHOCKPROOF AND WILL OPERATE AT A 40DEGREE INCLINE FOR SHORT PERIODS X40 MODEL 6) COMES WITH A LARGE BASKET 7) DRAIN HOLE 8) RELATIVELY LIGHTWEIGHT 9) BEST PRICE ON THE INTERNET, VIRTUALLY £100 LESS THAN ALPICOOL UK SITE 10) COMES WITH BOTH AN AC AND DC ADAPTORS, ALLOWING HOUSEHOLD OR CAR USE 11) APP ENABLED CONS: 1) APP CONNECTION IS ONLY BLUETOOTH, SO ONLY LOCAL USE I bought this because I lecture at University. Many students tell me that the biggest fights are about people stealing other people's food in the communal fridge. My youngest is heading to Newcastle and I hit on the idea of getting him a fridge. I then realised, that if I get a camping style one, if it survives his 3 years, my wife and I can use it on beach days etc. I originally looked at Euhommy, sold on desertcart. However, after some research, it turns out that Alpicool are the best value for money fridges for long term, extended use. Apparently, they have fewer breakdowns than other brands, and even more expensive ones. This particular model, whilst it doesn't have wheels, is very practical and ideal for students who don't necessarily appreciate the value of their possessions. Accordingly, this apparently is shock proof and will operate for short periods at an angle of 40 degrees. It's not the most attractive in a light grey and pastel green.....but in a few days, I won't have to look at it for a while! I was impressed with how quickly it cools down, and how quickly it returns to temperature after opening and adding room temperature food. This is either a fridge or a freezer. It CANNOT operate simultaneously as both. My suggestion to my son who is a confirmed carnivore, is to use it as a fridge. There's plenty of room for around 8 x 1kg supermarket meat packs. Inside is a small shelf, above the compressor which will hold about 4 x 440ml beer cans (though fortunately my son doesn't drink). I know this (about the cans) because we had a farewell party last weekend and I moved the excess alcohol from our very expensive Dometic 55L cooler to the Alpicool. In fact, had I known about these car fridges, I would never have bought the Dometic. The little shelf will hold about 3 large takeaway containers (we often use these for leftovers) and a pint of milk (he doesn't drink tea or coffee either....boring kid! LOL!) The Alpicool X40 has been operational in our house whilst I test it out for the last two days and it has performed excellently. Interestingly, on the Alpicool UK site, the X40 was £239.00. On desertcart, when I bought it, it was £132.00. For the first time ever, because this is for my son, I took the 3 year warranty for an additional £15ish (£14 and change). I rarely take these, but considering the whole thing came in a lot less than I had expected, and it covers accidental damage for 3 years, it's a bit of peace of mind. There is also no excess...I never thought I'd be extolling the virtues of an extended warranty/insurance! However, it makes sense if you are sending this off with your little darling! All in all, for the use case of a bit of food security (!) for a student, who is naive and non-confrontational, this is an excellent choice. If you are a camper or just do long trips to the South of France for example, this is perfect too. BUY IT, IT'S DOTTORE APPROVED!
Review: Just buy it! - Brilliant piece of kit. It cools and maintains low temps, is quiet and only runs at about 45 watts (way less than a piezo electric cooler). Used it for a camping trip, was great
