37QT VL35ProS Single Zone Portable Fridge Freezer | ICECO

My husband and I LOVE our VL35ProS. Its sleek, cools quickly, it’s so convenient on road trips or even just on trips back home from the grocery store. It gives us flexibility we need if more than one errand is needed after grocery trips. The app is also amazing to control it while en route or at the camp site.

I bought this fridge for the back of my JKU for going overlanding and I absolutely love it. It’s easy to us, very efficient and holds all my food and drinks. It looks great, but my favorite feature is open from any side lid, makes it super easy to get to my food no matter what setup I’m using.

I have had many coolers in the past including Dometic and Iceco. Your new cooler exteriors have greatly improved. Love the pro models lid that opens both ways. Well done!

Quick delivery, operates as expected

I've used it once and it was great. Jeep used more gas then without. Good purchase, I'd buy it again!

App interface is easy to use, fridge has ample storage and works wonders.

Works as advertised. Looking forward to seeing how it works on the road. So far so good

Bought the VL35pro for overlanding and off grid camping, and after my first long trip into the back country I learned this was not the fridge for me. First the efficiency is highly lacking. I conduct a backyard efficiency test on how well the fridge maintains temperature and it was surprisingly not very good. In 80F outside temps I started at 39F for the internal temperature on the VL35pro. After 30 minutes of no power the internal temperature rose to 59F. A 20 degree rise in just 30 minutes was extremely concerning. Basically cold air escapes the fridge fast. This is major problem if you’re stationary for a short while without power. A unit of this price should hold temperatures longer and not require consist power. Second issues is the lid. The lid doesn’t seal very well and if you enjoy rattling noises while you drive, then this is a good fridge. However if you want a good sealing lid that doesn’t rattle, then this is not the fridge for you. In the end this fridge would be good in a trailer with consistent power.

So far so good! Love that the lid opens both ways. That was the reason I bought this one. It works perfect in the location I have it in.

I’m hooked on Iceco coolers now and I really love the power banks as well. Thanks Iceco. Great customer service as well.

I put ice in it, didn’t know how to unscrew the drainin the bottom so I turned it upside down & still haven’t gotten it to work again

I purchased the VL35ProS and I can’t stress enough how much I love this unit. Going from a regular cooler to a freezer cooler was the best purchase I’ve made, keeps my drinks and food nice and cold.

EDIT: I have been in touch with the manufacturer regarding my challenges with the ICECO 37QT VL35ProS Single Zone Portable Fridge Freezer and we have come up some solutions so I want to amend the review. I was able to change the thermostat I was using for the testing as well as using redundancy by using a laser thermometer. The temp sensor in the fridge matched what the digital display was reading so it seems to be all good. The customer service has been fantastic.

I have been putting mine through the test today and what I have found is 1. it uses way more energy than advertised. For these tests it is stationary in my room which is about 78ºF. There are 3 Nalgene bottles with water (everything in the fridge has been previously cooled down), a couple of protein drinks and a energy drink. I cooled the fridge down using AC for about 45 minutes. It didn't cool down in 15 minutes as advertised on 'max mode'. After that I hooked it up to a 12v source using a Ecoflow River Pro. Over the course of 7 hours I have opened it about 5 times with each time no longer than about 10 seconds. I had to check the temp inside...which leads me to my next gripe.
The thermostat is way off! I tried using 'max' and 'eco' mode and when the fridge reached the set temp, I opened it and it was about 4 degrees off. For example, I had it set at 34º and when it said it reached that temp it was actually 38º at the bottom of the main part. The smaller deck was about 10 degrees warmer. I put a laser temp on the items in the fridge to verify and they were warmer than the ambient temp.
There is no Bluetooth on this model for some reason which is really too bad considering the price. It is also pretty heavy for being only a 37qt model.
Along with it using a lot more.

Worked perfectly 5 day trip the lid is great no more ice no more ruined food from leakage. Was going to buy a Yeti glad I didn’t.

Excellent fridge/freezer!! I am a long distance truck driver and bring food from home for the time I am on the road. My Go21 endured the punishment of being in a semi truck and running 24/7 for 5 days a week and is still working after nearly four years. I have no doubt this new one will be the same. So far it has performed flawlessly. I especially like the upgraded 12V plug. It’s much tighter than the original on the Go21. It doesn’t work itself loose from the lighter socket. I would highly recommend this cooler. Worth every cent.

No complaints so far.

The ICECO VL35ProS has been a total game-changer for my camping and overlanding trips. It cools quickly, holds temperature perfectly, and is super solid and durable. Runs efficiently on both my vehicle and portable power station. Easy to move, well-built, and looks great too. Highly recommend if you want a reliable fridge for your adventures!

After living with this unit for over a month it's quiet very cold I'd buy the 45 or 65 person instead it's a little more expensive but you get a similar size unit only taller. I live on the road as a truck driver and stopping to refill the freezer or leaving things out I want because it won't fit is worth the expense for me. I hope this one lasts forever but I really can't wait till I need the upgrade.

I took out my front seat and set it in freezer mode. Everything is ice cold runs 24/7 I cant hear it in my bunk. I wish I got a bigger one. Only about 5 days worth of frozen meals using it with my truck fridge it works well.

The freezer I got has two housings for LED light but only one housing has is wired for an LED light. Makes it look like there is a broken light. Nothing broken just a weird design choice. Makes me feel like I'm not doing simple maintenance like changing a burnt out light bulb.

I had the very small Iceco 22 quart for a couple of years. This 37qt is so much bigger and fits in my van. It is quiet and is easy to move around. Thank you!

UPDATE: I am updating my review to reflect the outstanding customer service ( something rarely seen today ) by Iceco to rectify my concerns about the "Bluetooth" feature and the the temperature display. The temperature difference is because of the Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion. So after this development I definitely recommend this product and company.

I thought this was a Bluetooth model. I downloaded the online manual before I purchased the unit and in section 4 it mentioned the Bluetooth application. When it arrived it didn't have Bluetooth and the manual was different then the one I was looking at online. Sort of my fault for not calling and asking but didn't think I had to if the online manual stated what I needed to know. ICECO needs to make it clearer on the features of these units. I have only been using it a week and instead of one degree increments of lowering or increasing the temp it's goes in 2 degree increments, not a deal breaker just harder to get the perfect adjustment. Also when the unit is running the temp on the display will jump up two degrees at a time instead of gradually with one degree increments. I had another cheaper brand that kept better temperature settings. Other than that it seems to be cooling well. Haven't been able to verify if the inside temp is accurate yet. Also haven't tried it as a freezer yet. Disappointed it doesn't have the Bluetooth feature is my biggest regret in buying this unit.

My wife and I bought this refrigerator for our 3000 mile trip over the holidays and it did not disappoint. Between the magnetic battery pack it came with (due to when we bought the olive model) and our Anker power bank this fridge was never without power and always cold. I highly recommend!!!

Picked this up over the holidays. Got the free cover and I sprang for the slide mount too. It’s all high quality. Easy to use and intuitive too. It’s feature pack as well. A couple cool conveniences are the usb ports of charging and power cord plugs front and back. I got the older style basket, but that’s not a deal breaker for me.

This is the second ICECO fridge that I’ve owned. I had the VLPRO 45 in a previous build, and when I began my van build I instantly knew I wanted the 37. These have been great fridges for the fraction of the cost of “big brand”. I will always trust ICECO for my fridge needs!

Bought this fridge 5 months ago. After testing it out and using it a bit in my truck, I can honestly say it was worth the money. I do a lot of camping/offroading and this thing has held up great in the bed of my truck.

We are using this as a freezer in the garage of our Sprinter van. We go on long overlanding trips so having the added capacity is key to supplement the fridge in our van.

Thoroughly pleased with the functionality and quality construction. Just wish it were not as heavy, but that is a perfectly acceptable trade off.
