I just received my cooler. I plugged it in and heard nothing. Is that correct? Also, how do I turn the temperature down, clockwise or counter cloc

If you look at the thermostat knob (left, upper, front) you'll see the temp. gauge. Turn the knob toward the rear of the unit and you'll hear the motor will kick in. If you keep turning, it'll reach the coldest setting. Hope this helps...

the temp control is on upper left. The cooler is fairly quit. I use a cheap refrigerator thermometer to check the temp. It never varies around 59 degrees.

Yes it is almost silent. I put a thermometer in and as shipped, it went to a perfect 54 degrees. So I never had to adjust.

You might not hear much. The unit has a very quiet fan than only occasionally runs. You turn the thermostat control up (clockwise) warmer temperature and down for a cooler temperature. Put a couple of bottles of wine in with a digital thermometer and see what reading you have in 12 hours or so.

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.

Get a different cooler those temps are too high! Cooler master 212, you will drop into the low 50's

Mine is only about 6 months old, but I run mine at 91° and it has worked great so far. Maybe check that it is installed according to specifications? Or you may have a defective unit.

Same Here Patricia. We just got ours last week and we let it sit for hours then turned it on and nothing!! It won't get cold, won't turn on and if it does have a light...it's not working either. I'm sending it back. Good luck with yours.

Good Luck, the 1st cooler we bought from Haier it didn't heat up. So they shipped us a 2nd one and that one didn't get cold. The 3rd one was cracked. After that we just went elsewhere. I would check to see if the thermostat is up? There might be a switch to activate the coldness

Mine seemed to take a few hours to really start to cool everything down, but it works perfectly now. Make sure it has the proper exhaust ventilation.

At one point, with a different unit, mine was doing something very similar. After some experimentation, I determined the the cooling fins were full of lint and the unit was over heating. I solved the problem by taking the unit apart up by where the fan is. I used a compressor to blow all the dust and lint from the fins. I reassembled the unit and tried it again. It worked fine.

i keep it in mid level(freezer) and i have not yet hear the compressor kick in and make noise.I read some reviews about this.im not making ice(have not tried)but my water and drinks are very cold so far.So,mine is very low or quiet.

Mine was doing the same thing while watching a movie. After a bit of research it turns out where it was sitting in my entertainment center it wasn't getting enough airflow around it. It was overheating. I swapped my shelves around to get more space around the body and haven't had an issue since. Check that you have enough airflow around it and that the vents in the body aren't blocked.

Mine doesn't feel warm anywhere when it's working, but it does keep the water from freezing. I would putwater in it and make sure it doesn't freeze. I assume the outlet it's plugged into is operational.

The cooler comes with a fan and a pigtail for the built in temperature switch, which on mine did not work. There are no isolation mounts for the eyelets that mount it to whatever you're mounting it to either. Basically, you get a cooler with a fan mounted to it and some wiring to tie it together. There are minimal instructions mostly relating to the wiring. Hope this helps.

Yes I understand ur problem. The artic fan that attaches to the radiator spins super slow! That's one of the issues I found about this cooler. Your best bet is to buy two good fans and do a push and pull configuration. I also bought a tri-speed fan regulator to help with cooling.plus, what kind of card do u have? I'm running this on my gtx 970. I also put all the thermal rubber all over my heat sinks. Hope this helps.

Mine arrived with a color changing light...do I just switch the light bulb or is that my only option? I have to unscrew the bottom to find out...I've had it plugged into my computer for about 15 minutes and the salt is cold.

My unit fan runs continuously no matter what the setting. I never hear the compressor kick in.I am concerned about my electric bill also. How did any of you speak to a representative? All I got was to e-mail them and I have not heard back. Right now I am trying to use the bucket and see if shuts off when the bucket is full. What is a good setting for a large basement? I would appreciate any help.
