Hi all.
Herd lots of great things about this website so I'm hoping you all might be able to guide me in the right direction.
Having camped many times myself earlier in life, me and the wife (wife not fully on board yet) have decided to give camping a go with our 3 kids.
We brought ourseleves the hi gear oasis 8 which we are very very happy with.
Our question to you all are

Party grill 600 or cadac carri chef 2
Best 12v/240v coolbox.
Eurohike furniture reviews

These 3 we are so undecided on and not long left till 1st trip.

Please help.

Thanks

We have a 12v/240 volt coolbox from halfords. I've had a quick look online but I can't find it, but I do know that Coleman do an exact one, it's just a different colour and lebelled as Colemans. It's getting on for 6 years old now and still going strong. It also heats up, not that we've ever used it to heat up food on purpose. OH accidentally used it to heat up his beer keg one Christmas. He wasn't amused.

I'm researching cool boxes at the moment and lots of different options. Look at temp range and ambient temp of the model. If you are going to S. France you'll probably want it to cope in high ambient temps. Other brands are Waeco and Mobi.
