There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have two built-ins (fridge/freezer) onboard that pull 6-7amps each and run 70% of the time…not good. So I purchased the this one and I use it as a dedicated freezer. It leave it set at +10F and it pulls 3.4amps. It easily make ice cubes, and it operates just fine at extreme angles (heeling). It has some faults but overall I am very impressed with it.
GOOD: performance, super-low amp draw, plastic case (no rust), feet are very good…doesn’t slide around. It’s sturdy enough to sit on (I use it as a nav station bench).
BAD: It’s a bit loud and vibrates (add an isolation mat under it). Latches are a bit janky. The temp knob is easily bumped and has no markers…I added my own markers with a sharpie. No temp readout…added an analog thermometer inside it. It does sweat in humid weather…haven’t found a solution for this.
It’s not perfect but, all of the faults are easy to address or put up with. My built-ins have more faults, and after using the Engel, I am considering buying a second one and converting the built-ins to dry storage.
Out of box unpack audit was a little disappointing. The unit seems to be packaged well however there are no cursory unboxing directions.
If you open it from the top and try to dig your hands in and grab the cooler there is nothing to grab onto because you have to attach the handles. There are tight fitting recesses for each corner in the bottom of the box. Pulling the cooler up, the recessed cutouts grab the rubber isolator feet and pulls them off the cooler. Pulls them right over the screws and washers holding them on. So now you gotta figure how to screw them back on without flipping over the cooler. Once I got the rubber isolation legs back on, I noticed the lid was loose. The hinges and latches were loose, not screwed in all the way, so I tightened them up. Not a good first impression.
I set the unit up and immediately plugged it in to AC current to test it out. I put a few room temp items in along with a wireless room thermometer. It quickly (35 minutes) went from 85° ambient to 37° for refrigeration mode. I left it there for several hours then turned the freezer setting on. It went to zero within an hour. It froze some water containers quickly.
I purchased a 12 volt 55ah deep cycle AGM battery as a spare power source and backup to the AC and my vehicle battery. Both AC and DC can be plugged in at the same time. The unit defaults to AC power. So if AC power fails it will switch automatically to DC, then back to AC when restored so you loose no cooling.
I tested the unit just on the AGM battery. From full charge, 12.7 volts, I ran it for 48 hours with a decent load of items in it at refrigeration temperature 37°. Ambient temp was roughly 80° during the day and 60° at night. I opened and closed the unit ten times per 24 hour period during this time to simulate real world usage. At the end of the 48 hours the battery voltage was at 12.2 volts. So in 48 hours it ran down the battery .5 volts. Not bad.
I then put the unit in the back seat of my truck for one week on refrigeration mode 37°. It held temperature fine even though at times it was in the sun. When parked I made sure to keep it away from the sun, however it was in a black truck and it was 85° outside. The truck battery was always at over 12.4 volts in the morning with the Engel and a bunch of other electronics responsible for the drain from 12.7 volts full charge.
My usage for this is refrigerator is primarily camping in Baja, many times in remote areas with rough roads, sporadic AC power (if any) and warm days.
My testing so far has worked out favorably. The main concerns were reliability and low power consumption. I think the Engel satisfies those concerns.

Pour l'avoir utilisé plusieurs mois en Afrique dans des conditions très difficiles (Namibie, Botswana, Afrique du Sud), je confirme la qualité de ces réfrigérateurs qui équipaient 80% des 4x4 rencontrés.
Livraison effectuée dans les temps par vendeur allemand.
A l'utilisation, il est sûr, mais si la marque avait proposé un frigo plus grand, je n'aurais pas pris ce 38l. Ranger les aliments n'y est pas aisé. Un vrai jeu de tetris. J'ai pris deux boîtes étanches afin de créer des compartiments fromages et charcuteries et un autre pour les légumes. Le reste, bocaux et bouteilles sont rangés et empilés juste à côté des boîtes. Il est souvent bourré jusqu'au bords.
Le couvercle doit être retenu quand il est ouvert car il n'y a pas de mécanisme qui permette de le tenir relevé quand il est ouvert à moins de 90 degré.
Autre bémol : la prise électrique est du même côté que le panneau de contrôle et que la ventilation, ce qui fait qu'on se retrouve avec le fil en plein le chemin.
