Capacity, per the listing

Roughly a week for two, or a family weekend. Baskets and dividers eat some of it, so think in lunch boxes and milk cartons, not just in cans.

What it has going for it

What changes on your trips

50 qt, per the listing. Room for a week of food for two, or a family weekend at the campsite, before the next grocery stop. Our capacity guide turns that number into meals.

App control. Check and change the temperature from the front seat or the tent, without unpacking the trunk to reach the panel.

3-level battery protection. It cuts the fridge off before your starter battery runs too low, with a low, medium or high threshold to pick. Handy overnight, though it doesn't tell you how much charge is left. Our battery protection guide explains the settings.

Weekend trips or a week off-grid?

For weekend trips, it pre-chills from the wall socket at home the night before.

For a week off-grid, 50 qt holds several days of food. Battery protection looks after the starter battery when the car sits for days.

On balance it is built for the longer trips; plan the power supply to match.

Great for you if…

You feed a family, or a group, for days at a time
You like checking the temperature from the front seat
You worry about a flat car battery in the morning
You trust a long track record: 390 buyer reviews

Skip it if…

You want the temperature range stated: the listing we read gives no clear range
You want fresh and frozen food at once: it is a single zone
Star ratings come first for you: 4.3/5 is below the 4.5 average of our ranked picks

What BODEGA promises

The seller states, word for word, in the BODEGACOOLER 50 Qt App-Control listing:

This 2-in-1 RV fridge functions as a refrigerator and freezer, ideal for storing seafood, snacks, meat, and drinks.
Fast Cooling & APP Control Equipped with a powerful compressor, this camping fridge achieves rapid cooling to 32°F (0°C) in MAX mode.
The BODEGACOOLER 12V car refrigerator operates at only 40dB, delivering a quiet and comfortable environment for you during trips.
The 12V freezer comes with a detachable door, so you can adjust the opening direction to suit your needs.
The BODEGACOOLER 12V refrigerator comes with a 5-year rated service life for the compressor and 1-year maintenance coverage for all other parts.

Their words and their figures, not our measurements.

Capacity, cooling and what's in the box

What the BODEGACOOLER 50 Qt App-Control listing names:

50 qt of stated capacity
Single zone
12/24V DC and AC
App control, battery protection

What the listing names with it: Chopping board, DC power cord, AC power cord, User manual.

Tick them off on delivery day, before the cardboard goes out.

Measure the spot in the car with the luggage in and the lid open before the box arrives.

Price and cost per quart of stated capacity

$259.99 Price on Sep 30, 2026 · may have changed

At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each stated quart of capacity costs about $5.20. That puts it in the cheaper third of the 65 12V fridges we have a price for.

Only a rough yardstick: zones, battery, app and warranty count as much as the size.

The button opens the exact listing (ASIN B0CLC9S2RW), where today's price, stock and seller apply.

A better fit for your trips?

Need room for longer trips? The ICECO VL75 ProD (8.5/10) states 79 qt.

Short on space behind the seats? The BougeRV CR22 23 Qt (9.2/10) states 23 qt.

Want fresh and frozen at once? The ICECO VL60 Dual-Zone (9.3/10) has two independent zones, per its listing.

Our take

The verdict

We like the BODEGACOOLER 50 Qt App-Control for 50 qt of stated capacity and temperature control from your phone. 390 buyers have had their say, which is plenty to go on. Where it falls short: its 4.3/5 buyer average sits under the 4.5 of our ranked picks. We'd pick it if you feed a family, or a group, for days at a time; otherwise, put it next to the Alpicool LGT50 53 Qt Dual-Zone first.

Living with it

The night before

Plug it into the wall at home and let it pull down overnight, then load cold food, not warm. A pre-cooled fridge works less hard on the road.

On the road

Plug it into a 12V or 24V socket, set the battery protection and keep an eye on the temperature from your phone, and open the lid as little as you can stand on a hot day.

At camp

Roll it to the table, leave the vents breathing and keep a thermometer inside. Our cleaning guide covers the wipe-down after the trip.

What buyers say

Buyers give it 4.3/5, a solid record, slightly below our ranked picks' 4.5 average. And with 390 reviews behind it, that number is hard to argue with.

The numbers

Buyer rating: 4.3/5
Reviews: 390
Ranked picks' average: 4.5/5

The one thing we'd check first

Before you add the BODEGACOOLER 50 Qt App-Control to your cart: check the space, because 50 qt is a big box, and the outside dimensions in the manual decide whether it fits next to the luggage.

Before you buy

The space

Cut a piece of cardboard to the fridge's footprint, put it where the fridge will ride with the bags loaded, and picture the lid open. Our fridge fit planner does the maths.

The socket

Check that your car's 12V socket stays live with the ignition off, then set the battery protection to the level your battery can live with. Our power connections guide has the checklist.

The food

A display shows a setting, not the temperature of every container, so keep a cheap fridge thermometer inside. Our camping food guide explains why.

The paperwork

Look up who handles the warranty, and keep the receipt with the manual.
