Picture the look on your Friends faces when you are sitting around talking, watching a movie, playing video games or enjoying a sports game on television and a keg-shaped cooler enters the room and serves your guests some cool beverages. That’s the idea and the genius behind the RC Cooler™ from Interactive Toy Concepts. The RC Cooler is a radio controlled motorized cooler that you maneuver around the room using a simple transmitter.

This is one of our top picks from the 2008 National Hardware Show and is a real unique concept that has been designed with simplicity in mind. This device is so easy to operate that your dog could almost run it for you. The cooler expands for use or collapses down for travel or storage. It even comes complete with a removable shoulder strap so that you can easily take it wherever you go. The next time you head out to a party, sneak this in with you and thrill the crowd.

The RC Cooler will hold a dozen bottles or cans of your favorite beverage, along with enough ice to keep it chilly cold. It is controlled using a hand-held transmitter that looks like a bottle cap. Four buttons forward, backward, left and right motions. It really could not be easier to operate. Fill it up with beer, soda pop or wine coolers. Add some ice and its ready to go.

The motorized cooler is powered by 6 C-cell batteries and the remote runs on a standard 9-volt battery. The transmitter range is about 30 feet. This is a great idea for inside the home or on the patio. I didn’t measure the cooler, but it looks like it is about 12 to 14 inches in diameter.

Don’t spend your time serving drinks to your guests. Let the RC Cooler do it for you. This is one of those unique, crowd-pleasing party toys that will get big smile and a reaction from all of your friends. Cool!

You can find the RC Cooler at Amazon.
