igloo cooler/warmer

I am thinking of getting the igloo cooler/warmer for my 2004 Forrester. Is it worth the money?

Are you referring to a model that is offered over the counter as a Subaru optional warmer/cooler?

Scroll down this page listing at subaruparts.com for the Igloo warmer/cooler that Subaru carries.

I've been tempted to get one of these for longer trips since frozen (blue) ice packs only last for so long. The drawback to any 12v warmer/cooler is that if you leave the cooler in the car it won't get any power with the ignition turned off so it doesn't work for camping trips, just longer road trips.

haha that'd be cool to use on road trips, no need to have drink stops when you have your own cooler

Target sells a variety of shapes and sizes of warmer/coolers from $30-$70. I have a $30 one. Left it on for 4 days in a hotel room with no problems. It's pretty handy. The storage capacity isn't too great though. Just wanted to let you know that there are other options before dropping extra money for one with the Subaru logo on it if you don't mind another brand.
