    I don’t know about best.
    I’m confident I didn’t waste money on my coolatron. It’s the narrow one. I like the ability to place it because of its size. Might get a second one day.

    Coleman, hands down.

    The main fan is a simple 94mm computer fan, so it is easy to replace. (Not so easy with the internal fan, but it rarely fails.) I have also used an 80mm fan and a 120mm CPU fan when I could not find the right one.
    You can stand on it with no damage.
    It keeps things cool to cold or freezing, depending on the ambient temps.

    I have used a few, but the Coleman has always been the most reliable and easy to service of all of them.

    I like to cook my own meals at night. No fast food at dinner time. So I need to keep some meat and veggies in the cooler. That takes a decent sized cooler, and one that keeps things cold enough.
