Plastic latch handle tabs broke after 2 weeks of use- should’ve been made from metal.

This cooler is versatile and great for traveling! It would’ve been an even better purchase if the handle was made from metal so it’s more durable and the control panel was affixed to the cooler differently. It came off when The USB cord was simply pulled out of the port. It still works and could be but pushed backed into place. Now it seems to be a bit loose on top. Great concept overall- needs fine tuning in design for the price.

Pros
  • ‎Joytutus
Cons
  • Takes up a lot of space in smaller cars

It’s very heavy when full of items. Chills great

This is a large, simple to use but HEAVY cooler. I like that I can get it cold first by plugging it into a standard outlet and then have it cold or plugged into my van for the long ride. I took this on a trip recently and had it full of water and sandwiches and it kept my food and drinks nice and cold. When I got to the hotel, I plugged it in and it worked really good. It’s definitely great for road trips or long drives.However, this thing is very heavy. You will not be rolling this around to…

Pros
  • ENERGY EFFICIENCY CONSUME LESS THAN 1KWH PER DAY
Cons
  • Not suitable for extreme temperatures

Strawberry daqs while camping = win!

- Made in China- Wheels on one end- 2 compartmentsI'm not a technical person in this area but I do have experience with mini-fridges.The flexibility to have both compartments either freeze or chill is fantastic. You can switch any time, just give it a few hours to change. All controlled by the panel on the end.It's not loud. I think that's important for van or RV situations, even camping, to some extent.Some of the mini-fridges I've had were really just "coolers". They couldn't get colder than…

Pros
  • ‎45.1 pounds

  • Not very sturdy or durable

42 Quart Review - my new review

This product is made of a durable plastic. The 12v cord was long and is appreciated. The same size as a normal 42 Quart ice chest. The temp was immediately dropped to the lowest settings (-4) on both the big and small side. 20 minutes in, the temp was noticeable and with in a hour pretty much cold. We took a 12 hour trip and wanted to test this out. We loaded drinks on the big side and ice cream on the mall side. It worked fine. We got to our destination and stayed a week. The day before…

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Inconvenient to access items at the bottom of the basket

nice fridge, difficult to wheel round

A good fridge that works as expected. This is a heavy fridge which is to be expected so having wheels is necessary. The wheels do help a lot but it is not like when you move luggage. I found it awkward to move because you have to hold your arm out to avoid the fridge bumping against you. I had to stop frequently to rest my arm.

Pros
  • The included basket allows you to organize your food and drinks and keeps them from shifting around while in transit, helping to prevent messes and spills
Cons
  • High risk of damage or malfunction during transportation or shipping

Best dual zone 12v fridge I've tried! (and I tried 4 different ones)

Works great so far! I bought and returned 4 different dual zone car fridges before deciding to keep this one. It costs a few more dollars than the other ones I tried, but 100% worth it. I power this with a small bluetti and a solar panel, and it kept my food cold all weekend (92 degree summer Cali days). The small freezer compartment is awesome and I strongly believe that the aluminum lining in each compartment makes a huge difference. Also don't fall for the fridges that have a small plastic…

Pros
  • ‎JOYTUTUS
Cons
  • Requires significant time and effort to set up and install

Very good refrigerator

This refrigerator is convenient and is well made.I like the compartments to keep everything organized and that the handle is sturdy.

Pros
  • Works as advertised
Cons
  • Heavy to carry around

Revainrating 5 out of 5

impressive good for me

JOYTUTUS 12 Volt Refrigerator, 53 Quart (50L) Dual Zone Portable Freezer With Compressor is surprisingly quiet. I cools down quickly and I really like that dual zones, one or either can be freezer or both or either can be just a refrigerator. And I like that it plugs into the wall in the house or into the vehicle. This is a very versatile and handy item to have.

Pros
  • COLD INSULATION MATERIAL
Cons
  • Not suitable for high-altitude environments

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It cools but not the way you want too

Bought this for an overlanding trip i was taking. The temp setting and the actual temp are off by 10 degrees. I contacted customer service and they basically told me the freezer zone will cool the fridge zone. When set to 40 degrees it would cool to 30 degrees. After several emails back and forth they basically told me there's nothing they can do. If you want a fridge with an accurate setting look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Built with high-quality materials, this portable refrigerator is designed to withstand the rigors of travel and outdoor use, ensuring it will last for years to come
Cons
  • Not suitable for use in small boats or kayaks

Works well wheels not good for camping

Works really good . But hard to use the wheels inless your tall. And it would be nice to be able to adjust the temperature ezer. I never figured out how to adjust it without unplugging it and starting over. But cools great and freezes great. It go's down to-5 degrees I think. I let it run for 2 weeks straight. It's a good buy.

Pros
  • Interior Accessories
Cons
  • Limited warranty coverage

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great from the start. Can't speak to longevity.

I really like this unit. It is low power draw and does control the temperature separately as it states. I did not have a good temperature gauge to check the accuracy, but based on my expectations, the drinks were the temperature I was looking for in one zone, while the ice cream way firm in the other. I only hope it will last. I haven't had it long enough to answer that.

Pros
  • The JOYTUTUS fridge comes equipped with two separate compartments, each with its own temperature control, allowing you to store both frozen and refrigerated items at the same time
Cons
  • Limited color selection may not match all car interiors

Arrived already broken

Very bad quality. Fridge arrived broken. Support couldn't help. No help came via email either. Would rather buy another fridge. I then disassembled it and saw that the cables from the power supply were torn off. I had to re-solder them myself. Now the fridge is working. But it's not the best quality. Sorry

Pros
  • Coolers & Refrigerators
Cons
  • Difficult to clean and maintain

Wonderful little frig that has taken care of my camping needs

I used it for a five day camping trip. Watts are high so it burned through my power battery but it’s well designed and cute Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Great little cooler that works great as a freezer
Cons
  • Pricey compared to other models on the market

When you first get it open the air tight foor with the help of a butter knife

First time opening use a butter knife to help. Hold start button down for three seconds to start. I am using this for uce packs fir my upcoming knee replacements si it habdy beside me. I pre tried it for 24 hours and it kept the frozen. Don't forget, don't plug it in fir 12 hours after delivery.

Pros
  • DUAL ZONE & DUAL CONTROL
Cons
  • No separate compartments for temperature control

Works great; read the instructions

It was SO nice not having to bring a cooler on a recent roadtrip. No ice, no wet food products as the ice melts, and tons of storage. There are 2 zones so you can set one to freezer if you want, have a whole freezer, or a whole fridge. It plugs in to your 12 volt or you can use an adapter to plug in to a regular wall outlet. We were able to store some decent sized groceries for a couple days at a time for a family of 4, along with drinks. It is awkward to get in and out of the car, so best to…

Pros
  • Versatile power options
Cons
  • Difficult to find replacement parts or accessories

Pros
  • WHEELS & HANDLE
Cons
  • Not energy efficient
