- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2025Color: GreySize: 23 QuartVerified PurchaseI recently purchased the BougeRV 12 Volt Refrigerator for my camping trips, and it has exceeded my expectations in several ways.
Cooling Performance
The refrigerator cools down rapidly, reaching 32°F in just about 16 minutes. Even in high ambient temperatures, it maintains consistent cooling, ensuring that perishable items stay fresh throughout my trips.
Energy Efficiency
Operating primarily in ECO mode, the unit consumes approximately 45 watts, which is comparable to more expensive brands. This efficiency allows it to run seamlessly on my portable power station without significant battery drain.
Portability and Design
Weighing around 22.8 lbs and featuring a compact design, the refrigerator fits well in my vehicle without occupying excessive space. The recessed handles facilitate easy transportation, and the lid opens conveniently even in tight spaces.
Durability
The build quality is impressive. The refrigerator has withstood various outdoor conditions, including high heat, without any performance issues. Its sturdy construction has even allowed it to double as a seat during camping.
Pros:
• Rapid and consistent cooling performance.
• Energy-efficient operation suitable for portable power stations.
• Compact and lightweight design with convenient handles.
• Durable construction capable of withstanding harsh conditions.
Cons:
• The recessed handles, while sleek, can be slightly challenging to grip when the unit is fully loaded.
Overall, the BougeRV 12 Volt Refrigerator offers excellent value for its price. Its performance and features rival those of higher-priced competitors, making it a worthwhile investment for camping and road trips.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2024Color: GreySize: 23 QuartVerified PurchaseAfter looking at different brands I decided to purchase the BougeRV 12volt, 23 quart Refrigerator and make the break from using a cooler with ice.
BougeRV is a great seller and their web site offers many different products. My 23 quart 12V refrigerator shipped promptly and I received it in perfect condition. It was packaged very well for shipping and included an easy to read manual, the power cord for a standard wall outlet as well as an adapter for a 12v car outlet. As per the instructions, I let it sit for 24 hours before turning it on. It took less than 20 minutes to reach 32 degrees and when ever I adjusted the temperature, it reacted quickly. The controls and display are easy to read and operate plus they are located on the top where they are easy to access.
The fridge doesn’t weigh much (empty) and it has rubber feet that prevent it from sliding around. That is great for when you are traveling. It’s compact size allows me to place it where I want in my small camper or in the rear seat of my truck.
As I planned on running my 12V refrigerator with a portable power station and a 100 watt solar panel, I was concerned about power consumption. What drew me to the BougeRV 12 volt refrigerator was how low the power draw is in ECO mode. It only draws 45 watts in regular power mode and in ECO mode it draws 36 watts. In ECO mode my food remains at my set temperature and the refrigerator doesn't seem to cycle as much as I thought it would. It is sitting next to my chair and it is so quiet that I keep forgetting that it is running. Since it will be in my camper I am not concerned about it making noise while I sleep.
How much you can place into the 23 quart compartment will depend on what you pack and the containers you place your food in. One thing to remember is that even if the compartment looks smaller that the cooler you may have been using, there really is more room because you don't lose cooler space to ice blocks or cubes. Also, not having to worry about your food getting wet due to melting ice is great. I filled the fridge with food to test it and one thing that I noticed is that the food near the top was as cold as the food on the bottom. I used to worry about meats or food near the top of the cooler becoming too warm if they were not close to the ice blocks on the bottom or covered with ice. Now that is no longer an issue and that's a huge win for this 12v refrigerator. You can also use this as a freezer if you so desire.
Over all I am very pleased with my purchase. I will update my review after using it while camping.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2024Color: GreySize: 23 QuartVerified PurchaseI recently got the BougeRV 12V Car Fridge, and it has completely transformed my camping and road trip experiences! This 23-quart cooler has more than enough space for me to store drinks, snacks, and meals for several days, and the compressor cooling is impressively efficient. It cools down fast, keeping everything at the perfect temperature, even when the outside temperatures rise.
Using it with my 12V car outlet is seamless—just plug and play! It's lightweight and portable, so moving it in and out of the car or camper is easy. I love the low noise level; it’s quiet enough that it doesn’t disturb the peace of the outdoors, which is a huge bonus. Plus, it's very energy-efficient, so it doesn’t drain my car battery, which was a concern with other models.
Overall, the BougeRV 12V Car Fridge is well worth the investment for anyone who camps, road trips, or just needs extra cooling space. It’s durable, reliable, and does its job perfectly! Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Value, Good Reputation
Color: GreySize: 23 QuartVerified PurchaseProduct arrived well packed. Fit and finish seems very good and the overall appearance and quality seem very good. The temperature variance seemed to be within spec at 5 degrees. I ran it for 2 days on AC and 1 day on DC. The noise from the compressor is very modest. The controls are very visible, however to avoid accidently changing them each change needs to be proceeded by an unlock pressing of the settings menu. You just need to get used to it. I have a larger 45 liter model from a different brand that I decided was to big and heavy for weekend or hotel traveling so I went with the 23 liter but was tempted with the 30 liter. So will see how it works in practice. The brand seems reliable and they certainly speak up for customer service witch is important as I understand these things are pretty much impossible to get repaired. For what I paid i'm willing to take the chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Muy buen producto
Color: GreySize: 30 QuartVerified PurchaseRealiza su función bastante bien. Refrigera y congela dependiendo de cómo lo configuren. El único detalle que pude observar es que rápido pierde temperatura y se enciende el equipo para recuperarla (como si el material aislante no fuese suficiente)

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome fridge/freezer for camping!
Color: GreySize: 30 QuartVerified PurchaseWe just got back from our first camping trip using the fridge and it performed excellent. Very quiet, has lots of room for food and drinks, consumes very little power, easy to use control panel, feels well built and the manual is well written. Includes both the 120v and 12v cords for use at home and on the road. Will also hold a 2L bottle standing upright. This fridge completely changed our camping experience since we know food and drinks will always stay cold and at safe temperatures. We couldn’t be happier, great product all around.
