    Frigid Igloo went out of business in the mid 80's. They were located at 498 Nepperhan ave in Yonkers NY. My father was one of the principals of the company as well as the chief design engineer. I do not know if anyone refurbs those cases anymore.

    Hi Roy- I recently purchased a fridged igloo 4 door and am curious to learn more about the company, history, and any details on the cooler. Plugged it in and everything works!

    Wow!
    They are terrific cases and were built to last.
    I worked in the factory in the 70’s with my father Larry Milano who was one of the principals and was also the chief design engineer.
