Does anyone else have the problem with this product that the buttons press themselves, or is my cooler experiencing a unique malfunction?

After wondering "what the heck" that when I wanted to raise the temp to 59 degrees from 54 that you click the up arrow to 59 and it reverts to 54. This is the internal temp. Wait a while for it to warm up to the selected temp. It is now running at 59 and comes on less often. Instructions were in the manual.

I have had no problems at all with this unit. So far, it's working perfectly.

I was having this problem initially- the light kept turning on by itself. I returned the first unit I got and had the company replace it.

The only problem I had with my unit was that which DSch described; the internal light went on by itself from time to time. I contacted them and they exchanged the unit and I have had no further problems. I found their customer service efficient and friendly.

I have not had this problem- It may be a defect. I would exchange for a new one and see if you encounter the same problem!

I have also noticed that it can be finicky when turning it on, but I usually just move my finger slightly on the "I/O" button and press again and it eventually comes on. Don't give up on the first press, and remember to hold it down for a couple of seconds.

I am not sure what the issue was, but I just received my case, and the power button works fine. I don't like power buttons that are too sensitive, and with just a little pressure the button works

It sounds like you have received a broken unit. The left button should turn the large center fan on ( it does on mine). I have had mine for about 5 or 6 months and it works just fine. I was waiting a little longer before i wrote my opinion on this product,for me its: so far so good.

yeah, that would be extremely annoying :) I have mine running a PC case fan that blows on it while its on, then the built-in fan never runs, and PC fan is MUCHO quieter.

The cooler part of my two fans are about the only thing that has kept on working. I have returned by fans to the manufacturer at least four times for repairs which is about the only thing you can do if you are having a problem. Wish I had a better answer for you. If you are under warranty, they will do the repairs for free but it is pretty inconvenient having to box up and return the fan. Give them a call and they will send you a UPS label so you can ship it back at no charge. Hope this helps.

I have had mine for several years, and no problems whatsoever. It sounds like yours is defective and you should see about having it exchanged.

No, I haven't had any issues with the power button. I'd suggest taking the soft case off and try putting it back on to make sure the fit is secure.

I have the same problem. The button simply sticks and the only thing to do is push the left part which happens to be a reset button. I'm not sure if this is a defect or not. The button seems like a rocker switch and you don't want that in this situation.

Hi I have had no problem. You have to keep the button pressed down while turning, Best Wishes.

I did not have this exact problem but there has been a rash of bad circuit boards axcording to the tech. Its unusual yours works intermittent ly versus complete failure. If I had to guess it sounds like you have a cooling problem and theset shuts down to save itself. Try putting a small fan behind it.

Mine does the same thing. I found that it is easiest to insert the buttons first (so the top with the power button, and then the side with the volume buttons). I don't think it I supposed to come off on a regular basis, but I take mine off every couple of weeks in order to clean out the dust that works its way in.

There is always going to be some noise from a thermoelectric cooler, but I recently had a few days of loud noise from the fan. Opened up the back and could not find anything loose. Eventually the fan noise went away in over the span of a week or two. Will be monitoring.

I had an issue where the power button needed to be pressed repeatedly in order to start it. This kind of an issue is being reported all over message boards. I did an exchange on mine to see if that would help.

The faceplate could possibly be out of place and pressing down on the buttons. Check to make sure it is lined up properly.
