Even though the cooler came too late for my 8-day Baja trip the week before Thanksgiving, I'll be using it for a longer Baja overland trip in February. I came home to one of the coolest items of gear I've ever seen, and I've been trying out the cooler at home, as well as the battery power banks and solar panels I received right before leaving for the trip. Awesome sauce. Each battery bank gives about 20 hours of run time, so they'll easily last overnight while camped. They charge using the solar panel in less than a day, so I'll be able to keep a backup power bank topped off even during extended stays when the truck is not running. The cooler is a perfect fit in the Extended Cab area behind the passenger seat of my older Tacoma, easily accessible with its automatic slide forward when I activate the seat back lever. The 12-volt cigarette lighter plug cord is easily long enough to reach the cooler, with just enough extra to route the cord in a way that is out of the way, almost invisible. It is really handy that this cooler's lid opens either direction, to suit where I've located it. It's a bit heavy, but I don't plan on leaving it right where installed and just grabbing what I need when prepping meals or grabbing a beverage.
Bought in july, its now december. use in a lawn care truck with little to no travel time except for a 30 min average morning commute, typically by the time 11ish rolled around and my drink was gone or warm the cooler was ice cold with maybe 60min of total run time that day, after i start i typically stop and start the truck multiple time for 30-35 minute and it typically maintains temperature very well. i stock it with drink and every time i want something it does not disappoint. I've been wantingn one of these for a long time and I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger on amazon prime day 2024.
used it for the holiday, all worked as anticipated
Excellent packaging. Perfect size for a weekend get-a-way…
I purchased the 47.5 qt single zone iceco refrigerator. I have used it on the road the past two weeks and the performance has been great. I bought it to replace an ARB refrigerator with similar capacity. The noted difference was the current draw/ voltage drop on compressor start up and run time. The iceco was more efficient and my 200 watt solar system with flooded conventional batteries has no issue keeping up even on cloudy days.
Thanks ICECO
Works great and looks bitchen!!
Below was my original review and I gave the refrigerator a 3 star. Iceco went out of their way to send me a new basket. All of my expectations have been met. The refrigerator itself is fantastic and works exactly how it is supposed to work. Thank you to the Iceco Support Team
Weird Wired Baskets
I just bought the VL60ProS - When buying this fridge i was expecting to receive the single tall basket, that way I could use the area over the compressor as an area to hold my eggs / cans / etc. Instead. I received two baskets, one that sits really low and is about 5 inches tall, and the other that is wide and sits on top of the short basket and extends over the compressor. I cannot figure out why i would want baskets like this - I am not able to fit a gallon of water in the refrigerator with both baskets. I have reached out to Iceco support to see if they can send me the basket that is in the photos. Have not received a response yet. Hopefully they make it right.
Love this fridge. Having dual zones is a game changer. Being able to have a freezer and fridge at the same time is awesome. Or, sometimes we use both sides as a fridge if we need to. Or, if I’m camping solo I only need one side and can shut off one side to save power when off grid. Customer service is exceptional. Thanks iceco
I purchased my JP 40 cooler a couple months back as my car cooler had died on me and I could not be more happy with this purchase. My first trip was to Ohio for one week where I traveled with food necessary and was able to keep everything at 35° which I found was perfect for what I needed on the way home. However, I was returning with deer meat that I had hunted and was able to keep everything frozen solid at 0° inside the cooler for my nine hour trip. I pair the cooler with a jackery which are a full charge. Will keep the cooler running on Eco mode for 2 1/2 days. Today I’m driving 12 hours to North Carolina and will be hunting in Virginia later this week where the ice cold cooler JP 40 will be used from everything to keeping food in it. Safe temperature zone and also on the return home keeping the meat frozen. If you know that you’re going on longer trips, perhaps a bigger cooler would be more beneficial, but for what I am doing, I couldn’t be happier.
This is our second ICECO portable product and we love it! We have the 47.5QT VL and purchased this 21QT GO20 to use for shorter trips and flexibility. The dual zone is amazing - who knew I could bring ice cream on trips! Love the soft closing lid (no slam), the display, and size. Very user friendly and it chills quickly. The smaller size allows for us to use in our small wagon, Jeep, or Truck easily in the back seats for ease of accessibility when traveling. Having these refrigerators is a game changer - no ice to deal with and great for shopping trips, too. We do a lot of camping and off roaming, so this offers a great alternative to regular coolers. Overall wonderful,product!
I’ve had my ICECO JP50 for a little over a month. The day receiving it I loaded it up and connected it to an Anker C1000. It sat in my truck at 37 deg for 2 days in the Florida heat. After returning home from my trip it only used 60%. I’ve had it running ever since in my garage. The compressor is very efficient and quiet. Also love that the app shows up in Apple Car play. I will more than likely get another ICECO as part of my hurricane kit.
The cover fits the fridge well and seems to be made of quality materials and workmanship. Time will tell once on the road.
I joined the Idegogo campaign and was very happy when the APL35 arrived. It is a piece of art and functions like a team. I plan on using it during camping trips and in emergencies. I enjoy watching the ICECO presentations on YouTube and often comment on how much I love this Cooler/ Freezer.
I’ve had the fridge for almost two years now and the unit has held quite well. Always staying cold and the unit has yet to fail me.
I bought the VL60 for a 2-month road trip around the US (and future road trips). Wow! What a game changer! It was wonderful to have a refrigerator on my trip with me. It cut down on the trips that I made to the grocery store, saved me money, and I didn't have to deal with ice. It's great to not have to deal with ice! The thing is huge for 1 person, and I only used half of it (the smaller half) as a refrigerator. I turned the other half off and used it as a pantry The refrigerated side did a great job of keeping my food cold. One concern I had about it before buying it was how noisy it would be, because I planned on having it in my Ford Expedition while sleeping in the car at the same time. I has happy to discover that it barely makes any noise at all. I had a 1200kwh battery with me, and the fridge would drain the batter about a 1/4 of the way each night, but I could easily recharge the battery the next day while driving or with solar panels. I love my VL60 and I have no regrets about buying it!
