The One That Started It All

The CFX5 25 is Dometic’s most compact compressor coolbox – but despite its compact 25-litre size, it still delivers cold that actually means cold. Not “slightly cool after three hours in a warm car” cold. Proper, consistent, fridge-temperature cold. It gets there via a clever combination of vacuum insulated panels and a variable-speed compressor that adjusts output automatically to maintain temperature. Highly efficient low power consumption means it’ll run off a standard 12V vehicle socket. Bluetooth app connectivity means you can monitor and adjust temperature from your phone, while the weatherproof TFT colour display handles things on the ground. A removable lid, interior LED lighting, wire basket, built-in bottle opener, and folding alloy handles round out an impressively considered package. Holds 40 cans or five 1.5L bottles, and operates in ambient temperatures up to a scorching 43°C – which you’re unlikely to encounter in the UK, but is good to know nonetheless.

• Dometic has spent decades making cold storage smarter. Founded in Sweden in 1922, the company started life making home refrigerators. A century later, they’re the global benchmark for mobile cooling – trusted by vanlifers, overlanders and professional adventurers alike. The philosophy hasn’t changed much: make the best possible version of the thing, then make it easier to live with.

  Today, that means incorporating smart tech like app-connected coolboxes, as well as clever modular systems designed around how people actually pack a vehicle. Whether you’re spending a month in your campervan, going car camping with mates, or just packing for a family day trip with a boot full of optimism, there’s a Dometic setup for it.

  You can expect whisper-quiet compressor cooling in a range of practical sizes from 25L to 95L. Meanwhile, the Recon system rethinks what a coolbox is entirely – modular, stackable, vehicle-optimised, and up to 30% lighter than rivals. A full ecosystem of accessories completes the picture: hydration taps, dividers, baskets, totes, lights, and reusable ice blocks, all designed to work together as an integrated system to build outdoor kit designed with actual intent.
