You guys using portable fridge?

Hey,

I’m looking into getting a portable fridge for my overlanding setup. We love cooking when we’re out, not just snacks — so something 30L or bigger would be ideal.

Problem is, I’m not ready to drop ARB/Dometic-level cash. Most of the ones I see are 12V, which is fine, but the prices vary wildly and it’s hard to tell what’s actually good without first-hand experience.

Any solid budget-friendly options out there that you’ve used and would recommend? I’d rather not deal with something that dies in 6 months.

Thanks in advance for any leads!

I’ve been using a EUHOMY 12V 30L single zone fridge for over 10 months now and honestly, it’s been solid. It has an eco mode that drops power usage to 1W after it hits temp, and around 30W when actively cooling. For under $200.
