Product review (5 stars): Excellent all Season Cooler/Warmer!
We love our new Knox 48 Quart Electric Cooler/Warmer!
I was like a kid waiting for Santa! When the cooler arrived I opened the shipping box with excitement. I was slightly concerned that although I had struggled between ordering the red or the blue. I was certain I had decided on the blue. Yet, the Knox Electric cooler/warmer box showed a pretty red cooler/warmer. I figured it wasn't all that big of a deal since I really liked the red as well. When I opened the item box, I was thrilled to see the cooler/warmer inside was indeed the blue.
I love the multi functional use this cooler provides. Not just the option to use as a cooler or warmer, but that you can use it in the car, for a trip to the market keeping your cold items cold while you run additional errands, take a long drive as we often do, take it into our hotel room when traveling. Use it right in the backyard by the pool and avoid the kids running through the house with wet feet and risking a slip/fall as well as the mess! Take it camping, which we never do. Lol. Maybe we finally will. We can be really lazy and take it upstairs to have cold sodas. I'm sure there are a dozen or more great uses.
I plugged it in right out of the box, switched it to cool from the off position and it's been a little less than thirty minutes, and it's already cold inside. I don't know what the temperature actually is inside, but I do know it is doing it's job.
It feels to be of excellent high quality. It's weight is mainly on top where the motor and fan is. The wheels roll smoothly and the pull handle is most convenient, and sturdy. It came with one nice plastic division rack to keep smaller items, such as condiments upright and secure. It does have a slot for an additional division rack or the option to divide the cooler/warmer from the right or left side.
When I placed the order I had assumed that you could add ice if you wanted to perhaps take it down to beach with you, but the instructions say that you should not even rinse the cooler/warmer with water, so I guess that is not an option. The cooler/warmer requires a plug in source to function. I suppose you could add frozen gel packs prior to your taking down out to the beach. This, is the only fault I can find with this fabulous cooler/warmer.
I am thrilled and grateful to have been selected to purchase this Knox 48 Quart Electric Cooler/Warmer, at a discount in exchange for an honest, and unbiased review.
I am a consumer that relies on the integrity of other reviewers, prior to the purchase of most products. An embellishment of a product does not help me, you or the seller. Personally, I don't like to toss my hard earned money into the garbage any more than I suspect you do. Therefor, it is my genuine opinion that this cooler/warmer does all it claims it will. It is indeed spacious, with the added bonus of the division ability. It has a broad rage of uses, and is made exceptionally well. It is equally as attractive and durable as other coolers on the market, and it is priced in line with others in its class.
We are excited to get the most out of this cooler/warmer throughout every season for years to come.
