Any persons had experience of 12v cool boxes? I am thinking about buying one ready for next season but are they really up to the job of keeping food/milk fresh for up to three days. Advise and comments appreciated.

Thank you for really helpful advise. I have just read a few reviews on the WAECO mobicool U32, this unit will likely suit my needs perfectly. The only question on my mind is how long a ordinary 12v car battery will last running this cool box 24/7. But as I mentioned three days is all I need.

we have been using a mobicool 45 up untill recently. it is a reasonably priced cooler but after three years and just out of warranty it has stopped cooling and we got no customer service from mobicool to get it repaired. In fact when I called there main service dealer he told me bad luck not worth repairing buy a new one. Ok it was £120 new so every three years change to a new one, I won't be doing that because of the lack of back up from them as a company.
I have an inbuilt disrespect for companies who have disdain for their customers. Thank you for your post, they have just lost a customer
