Ambiano Electric Travel Cooler
If you do a lot of road trips or live an hour from the nearest Aldi you may want to check out the Ambiano Electric Travel Cooler. You will be able to find it in-stores starting June 21st, 2023 for $49.99. This looks similar to the Auto XS Electric Travel Cooler that was available last year for $10 more so I have combined these into a single page.
Besides this version coming from one of Aldi’s other brands we don’t know much about it. Aldi doesn’t list the details on their website so be sure to check the packaging once it is in stores. I expect it will be similar to the Auto XS (see below) but can’t be certain.

Auto XS Electric Cooler Details

This Aldi Find uses your car accessory outlet (12 volt DC) to keep your groceries or drinks cool all day. It also works with a standard wall outlet plugin as well (120-volt).
This cooler hold 6.6 gallons which means it can carry thirty six 12-oz cans or ten 1 liter bottles. The built in cooling function can keep the interior up to 30 degrees cooler than the surrounding area.
This is perfect for keeping perishable items cool on the ride home. Or add some ice and not worry about your drinks and food being warm after a day at the beach.
It looks like this also works for keeping food warm while traveling. Aldi reports that it can keep warm up to 131 degrees (F). Handy if you are bringing pre-cooked food somewhere.
Both the car and home plugins are included and they are conveniently stored in the cooler lid.

Is It A Good Deal?
Like a lot of Aldi Finds Products this looks like a pretty good deal if the quality holds up. At just under $50 for an electric cooler this could be worth a shot.
Looking online it seems like much smaller electric coolers are selling in the $50-60 range. Coolers with a similar capacity are selling for almost twice as much as the Auto XS.
One of the better online deals that I found is the Ivation Electric Cooler & Warmer which looks very similar to the Auto XS in terms of size and features.

Water in the unit
Why is there water in the bottom of the unit when using. How can I correct it.
Thank you
Good price ..?
I just bought it for 50 bucks. I wish I had gotten it for 20.00. It’s large and a good size for ur car. I am testing it out to see how cold it will get. I believe a cooler ice pack will help a great deal….where did the other people buy it for 20.00?..if this is true….post where you purchased the cooler at.
Works great!
I bought this in 2022 and have used about 6-7 times. It cools appropriately and will also keep food warm. It is a bit noisy but I keep it in my hatch area. Worth the $30 I spent easily!
Great deal for $20 on clearance.
I have had this for a few months, and it does what it says… it does cool the contents down 20-30 degrees below ambient temp. but it does have a few flaws, it is top heavy and in the car with sudden breaking it can tip over and spill out contents, I have had to use a bungie to hold it in place. it is noisy, the fan is relatively loud and can be annoying. It also draws a pretty heavy 50-60wh, so on my 700wh Bluetti power station I only get 12 hours of continuous use… there are true DC fridges that draw less then that, and limits the use of my power station especially at night when using a CPAP, so I have to unplug the cooler, but packed with ICE and food/drinps like a traditional cooler, this unit will help the ICE and food last longer. at full price, maybe not so great, but for the $20 I payed, not bad. look for it on sale
