yep it looks the same but capacity and temp are listed slightly different made by the same people so fantastic quality and i dont suppose 2 litres difference capacity really makes much difference

Can I just ask those who have bought one, does the fan have a fairly loud hum on yours? I was expecting it to make some noise of course but theres no way we could sleep with this running.

The top fan is the noisy one whereas the one inside the box is nice and quiet.

It does hum a little but tbh nothing that bothers us at all. We've had ours for 2 years now and I think its brilliant.

 My Dad has been into Aldi this morning and bought two for their summer trips and they dont appear any different to our 2 yr old one.

For a family of 4 it will comfortably fit a 4pinter of milk upright, butter/spread, yogurts, salad, coleslaw, cheese, ham, bacon, sausages, meat for bbq, and of course for the evening,a couple of beers!

However I wouldnt stuff it full as it needs the cool air to circulate to keep it cool.

And hold a peice of kitchen towel under the internal fan as you open the lid as water can drip down onto your food

For £35 you can't go wrong, picked one up from the Manchester Ancoats store, they had loads, and guess who as a shop above the Alidi, yes GoOutdoors!.

Plugged the cooler into the cars 12v socket straight away, and it soon got down to +7DegC not bad considering I only had a sarnie and bottle of orange juice in the unit, so will be interesting to see how it does when full.
