Dometic CFX5 Portable Electric Cooling & Freezing Mini-Fridge, Polyurethane Foam Insulation, Ideal for Camping

Teuer, jedoch dafür sehr hochwertig.

Wir verwenden den Kompressor in unserem Campingbus, er arbeitet äußerst zuverlässig und verbraucht wenig Strom. 2-3 Tage an der Autobatterie (Zweitbatterie) sind überhaupt kein Problem. Ausreichend Platz für eine 4-köpfige Familie und dennoch nicht zu groß für den Bus. Die Geräuschentwicklung ist sehr moderat, man hört kaum, wenn der Kompressor anspringt.

It chills to refrigerator or freezer temperatures quickly. The build quality is as good as it gets. The blue tooth connectivity is pretty handy for checking temperature and normal operations while it’s buried in the back with luggage. It does have one negative, in that the user interface is not intuitive. It has a user interface control lock to prevent accidental bumping. I think it’s not intuitive that controls are locked and how to get out of it. The default printed manual is pictograms which is barely helpful. Their website has an english version. I do think this one attribute contributes to the frustrated reviews that claim dead-on-arrival. I suspect they didn’t figure out how to turn it on, which is certainly understandable.

Was ideal for me. A little bigger than planned but it's still easy to carry and move around for one person. Love the fact that I can take the basket out and carry out everything separately. Its cooling ability is great but if its an extra hot day(95 F) I suggest you bring the temperature cooler than normal so when it's open it maintains cool (used for a party and had people open it constantly). Its was also on sale when I purchased this so the value for money was perfect. It is well build and sturdy... I do suggest if you are going to the desert or really hot places you invest in the insulation cover. I do have a dual zone portable fridge for longer trips or if i take the whole family but this size is perfect for maybe 2-3 days worth of food for 1/2 people.

DOMETIC quality control did not catch that the lid latch tongue does not engage when the lid is closed. The gasket seal does not have any pressure other than the lid weight and if the unit were to turn over freezer contents would spill out. Has anyone else seen this problem? Is there a lid latch adjustment to fix this? At this unit’s price point this customer is pretty disappointed. Hopefully the freezer will perform as described. Only time will tell.
