Can I keep milk, eggs in this safely without them spoiling or freezing? Would it be safe to run for a week or more straight?

Yes, you can definitely keep perishables in the Porta Gaz without worrying about them spoiling. I ran it for 10 days straight, and it stayed consistently cold!

The refrigerator works very well. It take it about 8 hours to reach a stable cold temperature, but once it reach it, you could certainly keep milk and eggs at an optimum temperature as a regular home refrigerator. I have ran mine for more than one week without complains.

Reply - First - I like my chest and principal of keeping things cold , especially during hurricane season. On ac power you can control the temperature, but on propane it takes a good day to get cold. My advice would be put a thermometer inside to help with your issue. If it gets too cold, convert items over into a regular cooler. I haven't had to use my for several days yet, but mine got down to regular refrigerator temperatures. - My main issue is medication.

I keep mine in the freezer, but they should be fine in the pantry if you use them within a month or two.

It keeps whatever you have in it cold up to 4 or 5 hours. Never put ant freeze bags in there. I'm sure it you want to leave it longer it would be a good idea to put some in there. I am very pleased with the flip box. The only problem I have found it be careful when you close and open it back up for storage. Very fragile

Yes. The box, the bottle label, and the package insert all say to refrigerate it. That means for storage. Having it unrefrigerated during shipping is not a big deal, and you don't need to worry about it when you take it with you on travel. It's not going to be ruined like milk if it's unrefrigerated for a few days.

Yes it can. We keep it in the container ( a really nice tin one) in the freezer, but you don't really need to.

Yes, I would think dairy products would be perfectly safe in this unit. It doesn't get things really crispy cold, but I don't think you'll have to worry about milk, cheese, etc.

As far as storing your milk? I would think any kind. I used the ones from target and it worked well in the fridge but I never froze my milk since I had very little. Hope this helps.

I keep mine in the refrigerator because I do not use it every day and I do not want it to go bad. It can also be kept in the freezer.

As long as it is not opened- it can last forever.As soon you open it - keep in refrigerator until you use it all.BTW- milk is EXELLENT

It can be stored without refrigeration. It needs to be chilled prior to consumption so that the milk is smooth and not as chunky. Tastes nasty when it's warm and a little clumpy. After opening the bottle, if you happen to not finish it, it needs to go in the refrigerator.

I think it depends on what you use it for and how you care for it. I use it for milk only; not heavy cream and I run it under hot water immediately before storing. I make sure not to stress or bend the metal rod. I have had mine for years and use it several times a week continuously for years and it still works great. If you are not going to use it continuously, do not store with batteries inside.

I keep mine in the fridge at work. It's not insulated to keep cold food cold or hot food hot for long periods.

Yes, the cake should be fine for an hour. Actually I put a gallon of milk in our cooler and accidentally left it in the trunk of our Prius overnight. The next morning it was still cool!

Theoretically you could, but I'd have concerns with heating up from frozen and glass cracking, just like any cooking situation. You'd be much better off freezing in bags, I use Lansinoh Breastmilk bags, put the frozen bag in the fridge the night before you plan on using it or 15 min. in warm (not hot) water, transfer to bottle and heat.

I use the Philips Avent BPA Free Breast Milk Storage. It's containers, not bags. But you can pump directly into them and also feed baby directly from them. It recommends tossing after 3 uses. They stack nicely in the fridge. BUT for freezing (I'm not there yet), I would probably just pour into any milk storage freezer bag. Less air in the container and probably takes up less room.

The structure should be good for a couple of days. water temp shouldn't make a difference. Check with the manufacturer on storing in the fridge.
