A boiling cooler includes a refrigerant vessel for reserving refrigerant and a heat radiation unit. A heat-generating member is attached to an outer surface of one of two opposite walls of the refrigerant vessel. The heat radiation unit is mounted at an outer surface of other of the walls. A first wick arranged at an inner surface of the one of the walls extends from a lower portion of the wall to an arrangement position of the heat-generating member when the walls are vertically positioned. Refrigerant boiled and vaporized by the heat-generating member enters the heat radiation unit to be condensed and liquidated, then returning to the refrigerant vessel. The heat-generating member can be effectively cooled regardless of the position of the heat-generating member with respect to the refrigerant vessel, in the cases where the refrigerant vessel is used in the vertical direction and in a horizontal direction.
