Capacity, per the listing

Roughly a family week, or a group's meat and drinks (the listing says about 78 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

59 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 78 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, 59 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

Skip it if…

  • You want a battery cut-off named: the listing we read names no battery protection
  • Space behind the seats is tight: 59 qt needs a proper cargo floor
  • Star ratings come first for you: 4.2/5 is below the 4.5 average of our ranked picks

Price and cost per quart of stated capacity

$399 Price on Sep 30, 2026 · may have changed

At the price on Sep 30, 2026, each stated quart of capacity costs about $6.76. That puts it around the middle 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 B0DZHJBQJM), where today's price, stock and seller apply. Sizes and bundles of the same family often sit at different prices.

Our take

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone is 59 qt inside, closely followed by a fridge side and a freezer side. With 133 buyer reviews behind it, you are not taking a leap in the dark. Honestly, the catch: its 4.2/5 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 EUHOMY 23 Qt Car Fridge 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

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

What buyers say

Buyers give it 4.2/5, a solid record, below our ranked picks' 4.5 average. 133 reviews is a fair sample, enough for the average to mean something. The same reviews appear on both variants of the Setpower 48 Qt Dual-Zone family, so they describe the family rather than this exact variant.

The one thing we'd check first

One thing to settle before the Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone ships: check the space, because 24.6 × 15.9 × 22.6 in has to fit where it will ride, with the lid open and air around the vents.

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 Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone any good?

We rate it 7.8/10 (very good). It is based on 133 buyer reviews averaging 4.2/5, shared by the Setpower 48 Qt Dual-Zone listing family (2 variants) and the specifications stated in the listing.

What capacity and features does the Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone state?

Its listing states 59 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 Setpower DT55 59 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 Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone?

No. The same review pool appears on every variant of the Setpower 48 Qt Dual-Zone listing family: 133 reviews averaging 4.2/5 on the Setpower 59 Qt Dual-Zone and Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone.

What do you get with the Setpower DT55 59 Qt Dual-Zone?
