Capacity, per the listing

Roughly a long weekend for two. The listing also states a range down to -8 °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

23 qt, per the listing. A long weekend for two, or the drinks and lunches of a family day out, without an ice bag in sight. Our capacity guide turns that number into meals.

-8 °F to 50 °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.

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, 23 qt holds drinks and food until the next grocery stop. It pre-chills from the wall socket at home the night before.

For a week off-grid, battery protection looks after the starter battery when the car sits for days.

On balance it shines on short trips; a week off-grid takes more power planning.

Great for you if…

You want a fridge that fits behind the seats
You want frozen food to stay frozen, not just cold
You worry about a flat car battery in the morning

Skip it if…

You want to set the temperature from your phone: the listing names no app

What BougeRV promises

The seller states, word for word, in the BougeRV CR22 23 Qt with Cover listing:

The CR22 12V refrigerator comes with a 2-year Tech Support.
With ECO energy saving mode, this 23 Qt portable refrigerator's operating power is about 45W.
This camping fridge also has a shock-proof design to face the uneven road, operating with no problem in case of a 30 ° inclination when you are off-road.
The RV fridge/freezer is equipped with a 3-level battery monitor to prevent the fridge from draining your vehicle's battery.

Their words and their figures, not our measurements.

Capacity, cooling and what's in the box

What the BougeRV CR22 23 Qt with Cover listing names:

23 qt of stated capacity
Single zone
-8 °F to 50 °F, stated
12/24V DC and AC
Battery protection, ECO and MAX modes

What the listing names with it: Insulated cover for 23QT refrigerator, 23QT refrigerator, DC power cord, 6.56 ft AC power cord, User manual.

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

That is the seller's promise, not ours. Keep the receipt with the manual.

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

$239.99 Price on Sep 30, 2026 · may have changed

At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each stated quart of capacity costs about $10. That puts it in the pricier 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 B0C6MLWP43), 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?

Need room for longer trips? The ICECO VL60 Dual-Zone (9.3/10) states 60 L (63.4 qt).

Want fresh and frozen at once? The ICECO GO20 Dual-Zone (7.8/10) has two independent zones, per its listing.

Want to set it from your phone? The EUHOMY 19 Qt Car Fridge (7.7/10) lists app control.

Our take

The verdict

On the BougeRV CR22 23 Qt with Cover, 23 qt inside is what caught our eye, and real freezer temperatures doesn't hurt either. 113 buyers give it 4.7/5, which is a solid sign. The one thing that bugs us: there's no app in the listing, so every temperature change means reaching the panel in the back. Hold it up against the Aeitto 20 Qt Car Fridge before you order.

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. The seller quotes 50 minutes from 77 °F to 32 °F, so an hour gives you margin.

On the road

Plug it into a 12V or 24V socket and set the battery protection, and open the lid as little as you can stand on a hot day.

At camp

Keep it in the shade, 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 4.7/5, an excellent record, above our ranked picks' 4.5 average. 113 reviews is a fair sample, enough for the average to mean something.

The one thing we'd check first

One thing to settle before the BougeRV CR22 23 Qt with Cover ships: check the socket, because a 23 qt fridge on a car socket needs that socket to stay live with the ignition off.

Before you buy

The space

Measure the spot with the luggage in and the lid fully open, and leave room around the vents. Our fridge fit planner runs the numbers.

The socket

Switch the ignition off, plug a phone charger into the socket and see whether it still charges. Then decide on a battery cut-off. 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.
