ICECO APL20 12 Volt Refrigerator, 21 Qts Aluminum Portable Freezer, Electric Cooler with SECOP Nano Compressor, Single Zone Car Fridge for Travel, Camping, -4℉~68℉, Powered by AC/DC or Solar

The ICECO APL20 Portable Refrigerator (21 Qts, 12V) is absolutely the best! It’s extremely efficient, keeps everything perfectly cold, and runs so quietly. I’ve used other portable fridges before, but this one stands out for its solid build and reliable performance. I also highly recommend getting the custom ICECO bag that goes with it — it makes a huge difference in keeping everything cold and fits like a glove. I’m a quilter, so I know quality stitching and materials when I see them, and even though I could make a cover myself, I wouldn’t bother — this bag is that well-designed. Perfect combo for road trips, camping, or RV travel!

This little fridge/freezer is amazing! I originally purchased the ICECO APL 20 for car camping in August 2024. Then Hurricane Helene hit and destroyed my car, my house, nearly everything. I have been living in shelters & hotels since. (Picture is of my hotel ‘kitchen’ set up at the hotel I’m currently at.) The night of the Hurricane, I put as many valuable items as I could on higher ground. Never expecting the waters to reach upward of 5’, I thought the tops of my dressers would suffice for most of my belongings. Out of room, I placed my ICECO APL 20 on top of my bed in hopes it wouldn’t fall off into the water. When I returned to my house the next day, EVERYTHING on top of my dressers were destroyed as the flood waters tipped them all over. My mattress floated & my ICECO APL 20 was saved though!!! Being displaced awaiting on FEMA assistance, I’ve had to move around to several shelters and hotels. I’ve brought my ICECO APL 20 with me and it’s been a lifesaver as far as its versatility; when at a shelter, I’ve been able to store food & not be reliant upon inconsistent food delivery service. And when at hotels, I’ve utilized it as a freezer to store meats, pizza, breakfast bar items & donated foods for the days when food delivery service does not show. Soon I’ll be traveling with my ICECO APL 20 & realized I lost the vehicle charging cable in the flood so I called ICECO Customer Service. I only called customer service to make sure I didn’t order the wrong cable. I never imagined what happened next. Val & Mark with ICECO Customer Service, handled my concerns with compassion & enthusiasm in helping resolve my issue of needing a vehicle charging cable and asked me to give them a day to ask their managers if they could help me out with a warranty claim on the missing cable. They promptly y emailed me & then followed up with a telephone call and with management approval, they’re honoring a warranty claim due to the cable being destroyed - without my having to send them the damaged cable in because of the extraordinary circumstances. I was already impressed with ICECO’s products so It’s comforting to know that the company as a whole matches their quality products with excellent customer service and support. Fantastic overall experience. I cannot wait to be able to afford the ICECO APL 35 for car camping with my new car and continue using the APL 20 as a mini-freezer. Thank you Val and Mark for putting a smile on my face and being so kind! 😊

As is typical with ICECO, this is a robust little DV Refer. It is well made, with great, strong handles, and an all-aluminum case. The running noise is minimal and generally lasts a couple of minutes, and then it shuts the running compressor down. I did not time the running vs not running times, but I would say it is a couple of hours. I have mine in my Honda Element micro camper and sleep next to it, no issues with it waking me up. I have another larger ICECO, and both have been great.

Pros: Arrived quickly, cools quickly, runs quietly. Holds two, 1 gallon milk jugs or a single 2 1/2 gallon water jug, with a little left over space. Will not hold a standard 2x6 egg carton but a 3x4 egg carton fits perfectly. Cons: not able to create an account in the app due to never receiving the confirmation email, so I have to use it in guest mode. In my opinion, the cord, which only inserts in one direction, is backwards; it directs the cord towards the front of the unit, even though most people will be plugging it into a power source behind the unit.

It’s pretty hard to find a cooler that is made of all metal and is as rugged as this one . It’s super quiet and it keeps my food and drinks perfectly chilled or frozen . It fits perfectly in my semi under the bed .

I purchased my unit about three weeks ago and it has exceeded my expatations! I have been using it the whole time with no issues and power consumption is minimal. It’s always great to purchase something that work better then you expected, this was a great value!

What even keep ice cream cold

This compact refrigerator has been a life-saver. We spend winters in Texas in a 30 foot camper. These do not have a very big refrigerator. Our compact served as our freezer for meat. It maintained a consistent 3° even when unplugged for several hours. We've also used it as a refrigerator for cold drinks at a family reunion. Consistent 37° throughout the day. It is sturdy and well built. Definitely recommend!!

Very accommodating size for smaller RV, boat or car. Can be carried full with produce etc., handles are great and comfortable. Low enough that it can fit under bench seating. Probably fit in a rear footwell easily.

I purchased the cooler in July 2025 and used it for the summer. (It was great it sips power and works seamlessly with the app) When I went to use it in May it didn't cool. I contacted the company and after some troubleshooting steps it was determined that it had lost it's coolant. They arranged a replacement unit and shipped it with no charge to me. The service was prompt and courteous. I am impressed with this company

I can even stay out of town every time no worries about my food to damage premium product I love the way it freezes my ice cream.

We've been using it for several months on occasional basis when we need to have longer drive for groceries. At first it looks small but it can pack more items than expected. Very pretty and well made too. I like the lid can stay open. We eventaully bought a portable Anker C300 power station for it. And it runs quite efficiently and get cool very fast. I hope it will last for a long time as it's still quite expensive with a discount (that's why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 due to the price tag)
