Evakool KoolMate 55L Fridge/Freezer $379 C/C @ Repco

150

I don't know much about portable fridge/freezers but I think this looks like a good price.

I can't find the link for the 55L (maybe discontinued) but here's the link for the 80L:

Slightly higher capacity 60L fridge/freezer (Secop compressor) on 4wdsupacentre is $689 delivered:

  • Excellent price.

    (FWIW - I'd probably delete your fridge and freezer tags!)

  • How does it compare to Dometic 55L?

    • +1

      I’d pick Dometic over this.

      Higher quality build and +1year warranty over this.

      • He must be asking about older model Dometics. CFX3 is ~three times the price and in a different class to this.

        Evakool surprisingly hasn't published specs for this, which is their budget line. Apparently the instructions say compressor is "based" on a secop - probably a Chinese copy.

        This is a very good price for a basic fridge.

        • Says in the Q&A at the bottom it has a Danfoss compressor. And Danfoss is now Secop.

            @doddles: Possibly, but that's a Repco response. I'd ask Evakool directly if you were thinking of buying one and concerned. There's not much tech to these compressors but thin/cheap wiring and parts might reduce longevity IF it's a rip-off. The guy who bought one (link at bottom) was the source of my comment re "based on".

  • Dometic has a plastic case though.

    • Is that for thermoelectric coolers or compressor fridge/freezers, they are in a different league.
