Very comprehensive review. I just bought a 48 quart Newair for $299 shipped free and it has two compartments and they can both be a fridge or a freezer compartment or one of each and you pick which is which. The controls look just like the Ryobi except that there are representations and controls for each side of the cooler. All the fonts and symbols are identical. It has eco and max cooling. Each zone can be set down to -4 F. It has three different cutoff voltages that you can choose from, when using the cig socket cord, to keep from running your car battery down 'til it wont start the car. The 12 volt cord and the power brick look identical. I think the dimensions are very similar, as well, except that the Ryobi has so much space dedicated to the battery compartment. The underside of the lid and the drain plug seem to be the same, as well. The lid can be reversed to open in the opposite direction for convenience. It has a LED light in each compartment and a cutting board that fastens inside the lid for storage and fits in a depression on the top to keep it from sliding around while you use it. It has wheels and a slide out handle that gets you far enough away from the cooler to keep it from running into your heels while you're rolling it. It has a very tight fitting wire basket for each compartment. It fits nice and protects the walls from denting. They can be removed, taken into the store or into your house, filled and you know that the food in them will fit into the cooler. You aren't standing there with the lid open letting the cold out while you try to fit your stuff into the cooler. I know that three 2 liter bottles can stand on end in the larger compartment and I think 4 could be made to fit. The Ryobi didn't seem tall enough to do a 2 liter. An optional battery is available for about $250 and if you have it, you can also connect a 100 watt solar panel to the cooler to power the 60 Watt, LG brand compressor and keep the battery charged for overnight use. It must have a charge controller built into the cooler. Two 9 ah Ryobi batteries will give you about 650 wh of power and cost $259. A Dr. Prepare LiFePO4 battery will cost $380, comes with a 100 watt MPPT solar charger controller, built in, along with a cig socket, two USB-A sockets, a USB-C socket, a battery level meter, and will give you 1280 wh of power, and that's all running on 12 volts so there are no conversion loses. I have a crap load of Ryobi tools and batteries and when I first saw their cooler I was pretty excited, but after a little research I found that I could get so much more for just a little more dough and I bought the Newair instead, without a second thought.
We have used the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
Wheels on coolers are one of the best add-ons ever. In my work days, I had several wheeled coolers that got used daily to deliver wastewater samples to our lab. We had our own ice machine to make sure samples stayed cold to a 40 F. These electric coolers was always out of our price range. Looks like the wheels are a little flimsy. Ryobi cooler is a little expensive, but coolers that will hold ice for several days are expensive too. Great demo
Thank you. The wheels feel like they'll hold up on smooth surfaces, but I'll have to test that out over the summer. Maybe do a little off roading, lol.
I would’ve like to see a hand held thermometer used to show the inside temperature. And I wonder how it would work in 100 degree weather that I have in central Arkansas.
Be nice if it had bluetooth as well. You could easily run this off a seperate solar charger. 40 volt would be nice as well. It's cheaper to purchase a separate solar battery system to run this. It could charge and run the system via 12v, 110v and solar. Be nice to have some cup holders in the lid too. Needs a white lid to help reflect sun.
With an MSRP of $499.00 (and that probably doesn't come with the recommended 2 9ah 18V batteries), it's gonna be a hard sell IMHO. Will it at least be coming out using Ryobi's 40V platform?
In Australian, it was put out initially at AUD799, after few months, i think might because the poor sale performance or decreased shipping cost, it reduced to 599, and recently, some of them are clearance in stop at 299.
So, if it’s quality, $499 (and probably cheaper with normal markdowns) is a pretty decent price for an actual compact camping compressor refrigerator that will also take Ryobi batteries. This isn’t some hokey thermoelectric “cooler”. My Dometic/Waaco fridge of similar size that resides in my truck running 24/7 was $750.
This isn’t a “cooler”. This is an actual refrigerator with a compressor that also takes Ryobi batteries. Comparable products of any quality are about $499-899. This is meant for someone who doesn’t want to deal with ice every day at the job-site, or camping, exc and actually wants their drinks or food ice cold. Another option would be kept in a vehicle that has an auxiliary battery system and running 24/7, which is what I do.
My thoughts as well but I guess they have to stop somewhere or we won't be happy unless we have a refrigerator laying on its back in the camp ground lol 😅😂
If this charged the batteries while on 12v i could swallow the $500 price tag. It would also be a game changer for the overlander community and i suspect wildly popular. Sadly tho this is a huge miss at that price point.
They should have made it hybrid for the price. 2 18v batteries or when in the car, plug into the 12v car charger that can charge the batteries and charge cooler in low mode. That would have been great. Or 2 12v and home plug in charger, that way you can pre cool it before a trip

Unfortunately, you can't charge the batteries while plugged in. I'm hearing a lot of comments about 40v. which I'd like to see them make or else an adapter.
Sorry, but that thing is horribly over-priced for what it offers. Other products on the market, not tied to a specific battery solution, offer the same features at a better price point.
To get the best battery life, they recommend to prechill a full cooler, that way the batteries run off and on to get long runtime. In my opinion, yes, ice would make the batteries get longer runtime. There's also a drain hole at the bottom if you use ice. I should do a runtime test with ice and 12oz cans.
If you put 2 batteries in it and run it off your car will it charge the ryobi batteries while running off the car? That's the key here rather than it just leaving the batteries in standby until the cars off.
They should add a chime to let people know it's still open after a set amount of time, only because some people are extremely lazy and will open it and will never close it.
I'm very happy with the way this performs, but still a little surprised at the price. It does a great job. I just checked the Makita 21qt cooler and it's $699 (tool only). The only difference is that it's a warmer too. Just thought it was interesting to see some other prices.

Not good for the inside of a hot vehicle like suv or hatchback. The outer temperature would reduce efficiency and the compressor would make outer temperature warmer.

The question is who makes the compressor? That's important.
Ryobi makes great tools and products, they just can’t get their batteries right. Every time I order a tool with battery and charger I get a bad battery.
Also, refrigerated temperature should be at 40 degrees.
You can put ice popsicles and ice cream
Yes, it's an iceless freezer and goes to -4°.
Nothing like a yeti 😂😂😂😂
I'm a fan of Yeti as well. I use one of their products every day.

How many quarts is it rated at?
It rated at 24 qts and holds 40 cans.
Not good for the inside of a hot vehicle like suv or hatchback. The outer temperature would reduce efficiency and the compressor would make outer temperature warmer.
$499.00 Just checked. Tool only, no batteries.
add a solar charger to it
That would be nice to see with this.
nice cooler. rye obi not re obi😅
Oh no, TRZ got to ya! 🤣

How much does it cost?
Too much.
