“I have used it 4 times now so I think it is ok to leave a comment.This is one of the best camping gear that I have purchased. I was going to buy the bigger size but it wasn't practical for me due to it's weight and price. I bought this and I am very happy with its performance. As everybody recommends, I plug it to 240V 1 day before my camp then car's 12V and when I get there gas. It keeps everything cool and fresh, even on hot day at Noosa river in Feb, it kept my food cool subzero. I am not sure about others but I have no problem seeing the flame, the trick is that you need to look at it from the sides and also on windy days, you have to check every now and then to make sure wind hasn't blown it off. I use a foam tile from my tent to cover small area behind the chiller to stop the wind. It uses tiny amount of gas, I have 4kg gas bottle and so far used it about 14 days and still have gas.”

“Fantastic. Just what we wanted. We have one that got damaged in a flood and price wise, space shape etc, you can't do better! Thank you for stocking them. WE had been looking for Mobilcool rather than Waeco & it was Mobilcool's head office that put us on to Tentworld..”

“We have had ours for a year now. On gas it can get down to -5, on 12v down to -8 and on 240v down to -12. We use ours for short camping trips and when we go grocery shopping. We have a larger 65lt one that we use on longer trips (more than 3 days). Love our fridges.”

“Was not working when I first bought it. I had to locate a service agent and get it fixed under warranty which took about 2 weeks. I have it back now and it works well on Gas and 240 volt. I have not tried on 12 volt yet. It's a nice looking unit but hard to see the gas flame when you first ignite it. Their is no flap that you can open to see the flame. You can see a red glow once it's on. I still think it's a good unit to keep the milk and butter cold.”
