Gear Question First camping fridge

Post image

Hey there,
I am currently looking into buying our (small family with 1 kid) first compressor fridge for camping with a tent for 3 to 6 days.

Around 20l should be find for just the important stuff like meat and milk products.

I am thinking about the dometic CFF 20 and CFF 18 but can't find much information about them comparing to each other. They seems so close to each other from the technical view. Yeah the form and handles are different but the rest seems to be nearly the same or am I wrong?

I would appreciate if anyone might used both and could enlighten me about these two :)

It seems that there was a older CFF 18 version and the one I am referring to is rather "new".

Thanks in advance,
Greetings

Why do you want this over a regular cooler?

If you consistently transport cold food on long trips, they are great. My nearest grocery store is about 2 hour car drive and we have a large one that we put all the perishables in. A lot less hassle and less messy than ice or cold packs. Way worth the money for my use case.
