Can anyone recommend a good fridge/coolbox for a large family to use when camping? 2 adults and 4 kids so we get through a lot of food (and wine!)
Space isn't too much of an issue and we camp with EHU. I had considered getting a small domestic table top fridge or even one of those beer/wine fridges as they appear to be a similar price to some 3-way fridges.
Any advice, comments or ideas would be much appreicated.
Well we used to use a waeco combicool fridge, that was quite good but in very hot weather it let us down. I talking about +30C in the tent in summer. So we did some research and bought a waeco coolfreeze 25. It outperforms the 3way by miles but it also cost a lot more. I would recomend a compressor fridge/freezer to anyone. The work from +10C down to -18C. They come in all sizes to suite everyones needs.
Look herefor more info but shop around for better prices
We have a Waeco Combicool CAS-60 - used it for 3 weeks in France this year and kept loads of stuff nice n frosty! You can get them for around £180 I think. They are silent and run on gas, 12V and 240V so you can keep everything cold in the car on the journey there & back.
------------- Hotels Suck. Villas are great but I can't take my Cadac on the plane....
Hi, we have a table top fridge with a ice box, It's not heavy and if you have EHU no problem to power, The beer fridges are ok but dont have a icebox which can be useful.
------------- Doing as little as possible for as much as possible...
We have a waeco combicool 40 litre 3 way fridge which we bought summer 2006 to use in the conway trailer tent but we have now bought a folding camper. We paid £160. It is for sale at £120 ovno (plus postage)if you are interested. Have receipts etc, used only once on holiday and once at home over Xmas - great for all the extras that would not fit in the fridge!!
