    5.0 out of 5 stars Quality and Adaptability
    Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2024
    The Dometic CFX3 100 is an exceptional cooler and freezer that blends durability with superior functionality. Its generous 100-liter capacity is ideal for long journeys, while the VMSO3 variable motor speed optimization technology ensures effective cooling and freezing, even in harsh environments. I have adjusted the temperature from about -5F for freezing to the suggested 39F for standard food cooling. A standout feature is the Bluetooth app control which enables remote temperature monitoring and adjustment to about a distance of 30ft. That can come in handy while driving in the backcountry with the cooler in the back of a vehicle.

    The unit's sturdy construction makes it well-suited for outdoor activities. However, the cover, which must be purchased separately, is challenging to install on this cooler/freezer. The CFX3-100 is expensive, but its quality and warranty set it apart. The CFX3-100 remains a dependable and adaptable mobile refrigerator for any travel arrangement or emergency scenario. It works well on 120-volt home current or 12-24 volts with the cigarette lighter vehicle socket. It also functions well on various retail available lithium battery power stations.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable
    Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2024
    I've owned six Dometic electric coolers and the keyword would have to be "reliable".

    They seem like the "Toyota" of electric coolers. Whether or not they have all of the features desired by any particular user, THEY WORK.

    I'm currently using three of these coolers (I've given three others away). One is a small CDF-11 model (now discontinued) offering just 11 liters of space, that I use in my car for transporting small grocery purchases.

    The other two are a CFX3 55IM and a CFX3 25 that I use in my house for supplementary refrigeration.

    The CFX3 55IM has been running continuously as a "deep freeze" unit for three years uninterrupted. No issues. (I don't use the ice-maker.)

    The CFX3 25 has been running for just over a month. I was previously using a CFX3 35 but downsized to save space.

    As at least one other reviewer has noted, the digital temperature controls on these units can be a bit finicky. On the Fahrenheit scale, you might plug in a certain setting and the unit might change it. I'm still trying to figure out the pattern.

    Also, I don't rely on the "current" temperature readings as displayed on the control panels. Inside each of my CFX3 units, I have two ACU-RITE temperature sensors placed near the center of the interior, to allow me to monitor current temperatures as well as histories (watching for any significant "excursions").

    The CFX3 55IM unit is set to 5 degrees Fahrenheit, and I get very consistent -2 to +2 degree readings from the two interior sensors. The CFX3 25 unit is set to 34 degrees Fahrenheit, and I get very consistent 39-43 degree readings from the two interior sensors.

    There does seem to be some temperature variation within the interior of the CFX3 units. Temperatures on/near the upper shelves seem a bit higher than in the centers of the units, which perhaps is not surprising since the shelves are higher (warmer air rises) and are above the compressors.

    I do use ballast to help moderate the temperature variations but more importantly to provide added protection during power outages. Specifically, I use various combinations of YETI ice and the newer YETI thin ice, which fit neatly along the walls of the coolers. It's true, some space is thereby sacrificed, but the tradoff seems worth it.

    Of note, these electric coolers don't seem particularly effective at actually cooling (or freezing) items, and it doesn't appear that they're intended to do that (maybe with the exception of the small ice-maker in the CFX3 55IM model). However, they do seem quite effective at keeping items cool (or frozen) that are already cool (or frozen).

    Lastly, these units will accumulate frost/ice with prolonged use, but it doesn't seem to be a major issue.

    5.0 out of 5 stars What was I waiting for...now I have a freezer
    Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2022
    My boat has a refrigerator and a tiny freezer that only goes to 26 which is pretty much just ice. I purchased this cooler and run it as a freezer at 7 degrees F. Very quiet and makes less sound than my refrigerator. You would have to stand less than a foot away to hear it. I downloaded the app and use Bluetooth to monitor all functions of my freezer on my phone. So far power consumption is almost zero. I have it on 110 V but underway (offshore) I will use 12V. Very happy with my purchase. I also have several Dometic products aboard and perform flawlessly, worth the extra money for excellence.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great cooler/freezer
    Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2024
    So the Dometic cooler/freezer is great and durable and very well-made cooler. But if you have an iPhone, you are in for just an awful time trying to connect to Bluetooth or Wi-Fi as long as you don’t care about that function it could be the best cooler in the world, but as of yet I have still not been able to connect to Bluetooth and I have gone through all of the FAQs
