Capacity, per the listing

Roughly a family week, or a group's meat and drinks (the listing says about 114 cans). The listing also states two independent zones and a range down to -4 °F. 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

79 qt, per the listing. Proper camp-kitchen territory: a family's week of food, or meat and drinks for a group, if your vehicle has the floor space. The listing puts it at about 114 cans. Our capacity guide turns that number into meals.

Dual zone, per the listing. Two compartments you can set separately: drinks at fridge temperature on one side, ice cream or frozen meat on the other. Our dual-zone guide explains what to check in the manual.

-4 °F to 68 °F, stated. Cold enough to run it as a freezer, so ice packs and frozen meals are on the menu. A compressor holds that setting whatever the cabin heat, within the limits in the manual. Put a thermometer in anyway; our camping food guide says why.

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, 79 qt holds several days of food. The second zone lets frozen food come along.

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 want cold drinks and frozen food at the same time
You want frozen food to stay frozen, not just cold
You trust a long track record: 450 buyer reviews

Skip it if…

You want a battery cut-off named: the listing we read names no battery protection
Space behind the seats is tight: 79 qt needs a proper cargo floor

Price and availability

We have no recent price on file for this listing, so we don't print an old one.

The button opens the exact listing (ASIN B0DR29WB35), where today's price, stock and seller apply. Sizes and bundles of the same family often sit at different prices.

A better fit for your trips?

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

Worried about the starter battery? The EKOJUCE 58 Qt Dual-Zone (8.1/10) names battery protection in its listing.

Our take

The verdict

On the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone, 79 qt inside is what caught our eye, and a fridge side and a freezer side doesn't hurt either. 450 buyers back that up with 4.6/5, about as reassuring as a review record gets. Where it falls short: no battery protection in the listing, while most picks here name one. We'd pick it if you feed a family, or a group, for days at a time; otherwise, put it next to the BODEGACOOLER 38 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 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

Drinks on the fridge side, ice cream on the other. Keep it in the shade, leave the vents breathing and keep a thermometer inside. Our cleaning guide covers the wipe-down after the trip.

Load day

79 qt takes a week's shopping, and it gets heavy. Load it in place, or with two people.

What buyers say

Buyers give it 4.6/5, an excellent record, above our ranked picks' 4.5 average. And with 450 reviews behind it, that number is hard to argue with. The same reviews appear on both variants of the BODEGACOOLER 79/100 Qt Dual-Zone family, so they describe the family rather than this exact variant.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you order the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone: check the space, because 79 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, and plan a battery cut-off if the listing names none. Our power connections guide has the checklist.

The food

Decide what goes in each zone before the trip. 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.

Frequently asked questions

Is the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone any good?

We rate it 8.7/10 (very good). It is based on 450 buyer reviews averaging 4.6/5, shared by the BODEGACOOLER 79/100 Qt Dual-Zone listing family (2 variants) and the specifications stated in the listing.

What capacity and features does the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone state?

Its listing states 79 qt of capacity and two zones. Those are the seller's figures, not our measurements: how fast it cools, how much it draws and how loud it hums depend on the heat outside, the load and the setting.

What should I check before buying the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone?

Measure the space with the lid fully open and leave room around the vents. Then check the outside dimensions in the manual, the 12/24V DC and AC cords in the box, the battery protection settings and whether your car's socket stays live with the ignition off. Our fridge fit planner runs the space check for you.

Are the reviews specific to the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone?

No. The same review pool appears on every variant of the BODEGACOOLER 79/100 Qt Dual-Zone listing family: 450 reviews averaging 4.6/5 on the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone and BODEGACOOLER 100 Qt Dual-Zone. The count therefore describes the family, not this exact variant, and in our rankings the family takes a single slot.

What do you get with the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone?

Its listing states 79 qt of stated capacity, two independent zones, a range down to -4 °F, app control and 12/24V DC and AC power. These are the seller's figures, not our measurements: how quickly it cools in your car on a hot day and how loud it hums at night can't be read from a listing.

What should I check before ordering the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone?

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, and plan a battery cut-off if the listing names none. Our power connections guide has the checklist. The food: decide what goes in each zone before the trip. 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.

Where can I buy the BODEGACOOLER 79 Qt Dual-Zone?

We link to the exact listing on Amazon, where today's price, stock and seller apply. It is an affiliate link, and it has no effect on the rating.
