How is the size? I was thinking I'd get one for food and keep drinks in a cooler.

The size is rather small, but I used it for a 12 day trip with a 45qt Yeti cooler and we were just fine. It is just right for my needs and budget. -joel

The coleman website says the stirling is no longer available. Anyone here know why?

[Skeeter]

They have not been available from Coleman in a while. Not sure why. I am happy with mine. Not many left on Ebay, if you want one, you better hurry.

This looks like a very nice portable fridge, does anyone have a picture of the freezer compartment? How is the noise when it's running?
Thanks
Alex

[Skeeter]

The noise is not bad, it does put out a low "hum". I am used to sleeping in hotels so the noise doesnt bother me. Here is a link to a pic. lid Ebay has only 9 left, I wouldnt wait.

Thanks for the picture.
The eBay seller keep raising the price now it's $398.99......

Question: Does your Coleman Stirling's fan operate continuously, or intermittently? I have had mine plugged in at home for a week and the fan has run the whole time.

P.S.: I sent an email to customer service. The reply stated the cooler was discontinued because of low sales volume.

Wouldn't I still love to have an answer to this question before I tear the thing apart...
