Portable Cooler/Frezer

Came across this today. Looks like may be a good buy just thought I would pass it on. No experience with this but had a similar model years ago and twice the price.

Thanks for the link. We have been thinking of getting a 12-volt cooler for the tow vehicle. FYI here are some links for other posts/threads on this topic:

The prices seem higher this year?

Costco often has units like this on sale in the Spring . . . soon coming?

Thanks again,

PS -- edit time ran out -- Dometic:

Prices may be higher due to increased import duties?

FYI

FYI Costco is having a brief sale on the Massimo line of 12-volt fridges, but it expires tomorrow. For instance:

We purchased this last year and used it in our pop-up tent trailer off of a 100 watt solar system for 8 days. You can take the temps down for a freezer, or use as a fridge. It worked flawlessly for us. We take delivery of our new 2020 FC 23fb in 2 weeks, and are still deciding if we will carry it in it..

We love our Engel MT45 fridge / freezer. 45qt. Still running super strong after 13 years in service. Runs 24/7 in our garage when not camping.
