Cooper Cooler HC02.C Tailgater Rapid Beverage Chiller by Cooper Cooler

La compré principalmente para enfriar mis botellas de vino. Si logra llevarlas a una buena temperatura, pero uso 4X más tiempo que el indicado. No la he probado con otras bebidas.

Unlike some reviewers, I found that this product fulfilled my expectations completely. The noise while the Cooper Cooler was operating did not seem any louder than the noise a microwave makes while running. While water and ice must be added to the cooler, the amount of ice recommended will actually cool several drinks. Far less ice is required than the manual recommends if you only want to cool one, two, even three or four drinks. Additionally, the tailgating model's adapter comes with an extra-long cord so that you're not forced to sit in the front seat of a car while using it, risking spilling water and ice all over the place. I bought this product as a gift for my brother, but have had ample experience using his, and will probably buy one for myself.

Works well, make sure you have ice.

It's a great product but has some flaws that when using it. When spinning it will fire water out the front, right above the control panel. This becomes an issue as it soaks the area outside and then water gets around the controls. I've already had two cases of the buttons stop responding. I've improvised and elevated the front with something to keep the water from flying forward. It does cool your drinks really well so its not deemed a major issue just an inconvenience with possible electrical issues later. I usually use 4 cups of ice cubes and 4 cups of water. I've tried varied amounts to be sure it wasn't the levels.

I went looking for something to chill can sodas quickly since my family seems to have issues with refilling the fridge when it gets low. While this definitely isn't the cheapest option out there it works REALLY well. Using the Cooper Cooler is pretty easy - plug it in (both AC and DC cords are included), add 2 cups of ice cubes and 2 cups of water, put the container in, choose the type of container and if you want it "extra" cold and press "start". In about 2 minutes (for extra cold) you have an ice-cold 12oz soda! The instructions aren't the best written but there's not much to know. Do keep in mind that those 2 cups of ice will chill ONE 12oz can, so it will go through a lot of ice if you're using it constantly, but if you get tired of room temperature cans because you (or your kids) forgot to put some in the fridge this is a fantastic device!
