Fridge freezers are by far one of the most welcomed additions to any overlanding kit. They absolutely change the way you eat in the back country and can raise your culinary game to the next level. True, you can certainly live without one, but once you take the plunge you’ll wonder why you didn’t break the ice leash sooner. There are several advantages, and very few disadvantages to switching from a cooler to a fridge/freezer. However, we won’t be arguing for or against either here, instead we have compiled an alphabetical list of quality fridge freezers that are sure to accommodate your beer payload and provide you with years of dutiful service. If you are interested in a head to head comparison of fridge versus coolers, you can find that in a previous article here.
Below, you will find several high end refrigerator manufacturers. Each brand was carefully chosen for this list based on quality factors such as construction, compressor manufacturer, and overall durability. Many of the examples listed below have been owned and/or tested by Expedition Portal staff at some point. However, we hold no specific allegiance to any particular brand and have chosen our personal fridge freezers based on our own specific tastes and needs. We suggest that you do the same.
Things to consider:
- Amperage draw: The higher the draw, the greater the demands on your electrical system. If power draw is too great, you will need to consider supplementing your starting battery. If voltage drops below a specified amount, the fridge will turn off to ensure that you can start your vehicle. Obviously, this can spoil your food and trip. You can avoid this issue by either choosing a fridge with a relatively low amperage draw, by adding a second battery, solar, or both. A jumper pack can also rescue a dead battery.
- Clearance: The mechanical/electrical components of the fridge freezer require airflow to function properly. This requires leaving space around the fridge to maintain this airflow *Consult your user manual for specific space requirements -you may find it helpful to review the online PDF manuals where available to determine if this is a limiting factor for your setup.
- Wiring: This goes back to number 1 above. Factory wiring is often too small to handle the current draw required by almost all fridge freezers on the market -which tend to start at 2.5 amps and increase from there. This means you will likely need to run a separate wire from your battery to the fridge in order to accommodate the increased electrical demands.
- Compressor: With the exception of a few brands and models listed below, all use the same brand and model of compressor: Danfoss, particularly, the BD35F. This means that the proprietary advantages of one fridge over another primarily comes in the form of insulation materials and thickness, compressor controls, temperature monitors, electronics, and construction materials. Many claim to use “higher quality compressors than the competition” when in reality, they likely share the same brand and model. To help with you make an informed decision, we have provided the compressor brand of each brand and model listed below.
This is by no means an exhaustive list. In fact, there are countless 12 volt fridge freezers popping up all the time. We chose to provide the following brands based on two factors: availability in the United States, and high quality. If find that we have missed any key models or brands, please drop us a note in the comment section below.
ARB
“ARB Fridge Freezers are the ideal way to keep your food and beverages chilled or frozen on your 4×4 adventures, regardless of ambient conditions. Not to be confused with less effective 12 volt ‘coolers’, the ARB unit is a true refrigerator/freezer. Own one and you’ll never again find your lunch water- logged by shifting ice, and there’ll always be a cold drink on hand during the sweltering summer months.” -ARB

Engel
“The heart of every new Engel fridge/freezer is the next-generation F-Series Sawafuji Swing Motor compressor. This extraordinary compressor motor provides the refrigeration you need without placing unreasonable demands on your batteries. With just one moving part, this motor is the epitome of efficiency. Its piston-action is powered by electro-magnets. Start up power draw is minimal, with piston moving just a fraction of an inch and gradually gaining speed. (Just the opposite of a radial motor compressor which places an enormous power draw on your batteries every time it starts up.)
Spring-mounted in a steel cocoon, the Sawafuji Swing Motor is maintenance-free and designed to do its job in extreme conditions. Vibration-resistant and capable of unaffected operation at inclines of up to 30-degrees, you can count on refrigeration virtually wherever you roam.” -Engel
