In our practical test, we put the Yukon compressor cooler from Juskys through its paces to see whether it delivers what the manufacturer promises. The cooler is easy to use thanks to a clear menu that makes it intuitive and simple to operate. In terms of functions and performance, the cool box impressed with its ability to cool down to -20 degrees Celsius and keep warm up to 50 degrees Celsius, which makes it very versatile.
During use, the low noise level was a positive feature, which is particularly pleasant on longer journeys or overnight stays in the vicinity of the cool box. Cleaning is straightforward, as the surfaces are easy to wipe clean. Another plus point is the cooling time: even without a permanent power supply, the cool box keeps drinks and food cold for a long time, which is particularly practical on longer trips.
Overall, we can confirm that the Yukon compressor cooler fully lives up to the manufacturer’s promises. It is easy to use, powerful, quiet and easy to clean. One small point of criticism, however, would be the lack of sustainability information, which is becoming increasingly important in this day and age. Despite this minor shortcoming, the Yukon is a reliable and versatile solution for travelling.
