The Alpicool CF55 is a budget-friendly 12V portable refrigerator and freezer praised for its cooling performance and low power draw. Effective cooling: The CF55 can cool down quickly and has a wide temperature range, freezing down to -4°F (-20°C). Many users report successful use as a freezer, with one confirming it kept ice cream solid on a long trip. Low power consumption: The unit runs very efficiently, especially in "Eco" mode, and multiple users have run it successfully for extended periods on a Jackery power station or dual-battery setup without issue. Not a true dual zone: Reviewers note that while the CF55 has two internal compartments, only the larger one is directly cooled by the compressor. The smaller zone's temperature is dependent on the main zone, making it more of a "cold" space than a separate, independently controlled area. The CF55 is a solid, budget-friendly option for casual road trips, car camping, and RV use. It provides excellent value and performance for its price, but you will sacrifice some of the features, accuracy, and rugged durability found in more expensive brands like Dometic.
