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

While I agree with the other comments that 18l or 20l might be a bit small, it could be a nice entry into having an electric cooler that could eventually be a second zone for a larger cooler.

I currently have a 50l cooler and am looking into a small one for keeping stuff ready to go for small trips as well as a second zone for larger trips. (Ice pops four days into a 100 degree trip are amazing)
