A small thermoelectric cooler that does what it's built for, mild chilling of a handful of cans or skincare items, but buyers should know upfront it's not true refrigeration and cooling can drift over months of use.

Overview
A 4 liter thermoelectric mini fridge sized to hold about 6 cans, designed for a bedroom, office, dorm, or car rather than as a kitchen appliance. It runs on either AC home power or a 12V car outlet and includes a removable shelf.
This is a Peltier, thermoelectric, cooler, not a compressor-based refrigerator, so it cools contents below ambient room temperature rather than freezing anything.
- 4L capacity, holds about 6 cans
- AC and 12V DC power options
- Rated 25dB quiet operation
- Removable interior shelf
Who it's for
Best for keeping drinks, skincare, or small snacks cool in a bedroom, dorm, office desk, or car. Not a replacement for a real refrigerator and won't freeze or hold near-freezing temperatures reliably.
Pros and cons
- Runs on both home AC and a car's 12V outlet
- Compact enough for a desk, dresser, or nightstand
- Good for skincare, cosmetics, or drink chilling in a small space
- Door closes with a positive click, no accidental opening
Performance notes
The Peltier module cools between 53 and 64 degrees Fahrenheit below ambient temperature within 1 to 2 hours, reaching as low as 32 to 59 degrees Fahrenheit depending on room conditions. It's rated at 25 decibels, though a couple of owners describe it as audible enough to notice in a quiet bedroom.
