Keeping food chilled far from the kitchen
Anker’s Everfrost 40 is an electric cooler: rather than depending only on ice packs, it relies on an energy source to hold a low temperature. Its capacity reaches 43 L, enough for drinks, prepared meals and a few fresh items over a weekend. The available information does not give the temperature range, the power draw or the battery runtime, so refer to the manual for those points.
Typical situations
With family or friends
A day at the beach, a boat trip, a barbecue by a lake or a motorhome holiday: a cooler of this size loads into a boot and sits in the shade. The 43 L volume leaves room for several bottles and dishes for a small group.
In a work setting
A mobile caterer, a film crew or a field team can keep their meals in it. For sensitive foods, follow the hygiene and temperature rules that apply to your trade.
Size and weight
The model measures 74,2 x 43 x 45,5 cm and weighs 24 kg. Measure the boot or storage bay in advance, and plan on two people to move it once loaded. Handles, wheels and the body material are not described in the data supplied.
Preparing for the outing
- Measure the spot where the cooler will stand, leaving a little air around it.
- Power the unit and let it cool down before putting food inside.
- Chill drinks and dishes beforehand: the unit is better at keeping cold than at producing it in large amounts.
- Spread the load so the weight stays balanced.
Connecting to a socket, a vehicle battery or a power station must follow the manual; check that your source is compatible before plugging in.
What to take away
- A 43 L volume suited to two to four people on a short getaway.
- A long 74,2 cm shape that fits a boot more easily than a tall cube.
- An electric design that reduces the need for ice.

Safety guidelines
Stand the cooler on a level, stable floor and keep it away from heavy moisture and direct heat. Use only cables that are sound and suitable. Do not cover it in a way that blocks heat from escaping. Lift it with a second person to protect your back.
Cleaning and storage
Empty the unit after every trip, wash the inside with lukewarm water and a little mild detergent, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Leave the lid slightly open during storage to avoid odours, in a dry place. Wipe the seals and edges as well, since crumbs and drips collect there. Before the first trip of a new season, run a short test at home so you know how the unit behaves, and read the manual again if anything looks unusual.
