Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Koolatron KWC-25 Coca-Cola 28-Can-Capacity Portable Fridge with LED Display
Customer Review: Great for its purpose! Build quality slightly in question.
Summary: 5 Stars
First off, I know this is not a true "refrigerator" but a thermo-electric cooler. If all you are using this for is to have ice cold drinks in a near room temperature room, this is perfectly fine.
I bought this fridge specifically to keep drinks cold in my media room. The room temperature is around 74-78 Fahrenheit throughout the day, and this fridge has no problem keeping 28 cans at 37-41 degrees F. It is even able to do this in its whisper quiet mode(low fan speed). The initial cool-down of the 28 cans took a good 8 hours, but afterward it didn't budge from ~40f even after adding a few warm cans, which is great. The walls also do a good job insulating the fridge to my surprise.
The build quality of the frame is pretty decent. The red plastic actually looks pretty nice and not cheap like I thought. It looks much classier and is a more attractive addition than just your standard mini-fridge (thus the price premium). The radiator and fan in the back are enclosed by a another thinner piece of plastic but it seems fine. The four buttons on the front glow a fairly bright blue color as does the LCD...this may be annoying to some people as the only way to shut off the lights is to shut off the entire unit (cooling and all), but this doesn't bother me too much. The first button is the master power on and off. The middle two buttons adjust the set temperature from 2-60 Celsius (about 35-140 Fahrenheit). The last button on the right turns on a small light inside that casts a nice looking glow across the cans...it illuminates the window nicely. The LCD screen reports the temperature inside the fridge at all times unless you adjust the temperature, at which point it shows you what the target temp is.
For the first few days I really loved the fridge, but I woke up one day and the LCD was reporting 54 degrees Celsius (129 Fahrenheit) for the cooler temperature. I opened the fridge and found everything still very cold like normal. It turns out the LCD screen just went crazy. It just kept reporting random temperatures from 30 - 65 Celsius. I'm guessing it was just a bad temperature sensor as the unit was still cooling fine. I notified Amazon and they immediately shipped me a replacement and scheduled a UPS pickup of my old one at no charge. I couldn't ask for better service than that. Overall, I love the fridge...just a little disappointed that I need to exchange it. Overall, I think it's a great product and makes a great addition to my theater room.
