ICECO GO20 21 Quart/20 Liter Dual Zone 12 Volt Refrigerator, Portable Refrigerator with Secop Compressor, Electric Cooler, DC & AC, 0℉ - 50℉, Compressor Cooler for Outdoor, White

I've used this fridge nearly constantly for the last year as I've been traveling around the country in my car. It's so great not to need to deal with a cooler and getting ice. I use an EcoFlow River 2 Pro to keep it running and charge that from my car when it's on. The whole system has worked great and kept my food cold. Recently, the Iceco fridge started reading a high temperature on the display and ran the compressor constantly, freezing the food inside. After talking with Iceco support, it appears that the temperature sensor is faulty and cannot be replaced. Despite being a few months out of the 1 year general warranty, Iceco has offered to send me a new unit. So despite it failing, I'm still giving this 5 stars for the customer service and the manufacturer standing by their product. Hopefully the next unit will last longer.

Edit: I’m not going to change the rating but I do want to l leave and update about a problem I had which apparently some other reviewers also had. While I was away from the truck, the cigarette lighter plug popped out of the socket to the AC adaptor the refrigerator came with. It doesn’t seem to lock in very well, probably because the spring for the tip is too strong. Fortunately I saw the problem before my food spoiled but it could have been bad. I fixed to problem by wrapping electrical tape around the connection point to hold them together but frankly, I should not have needed to do that. Iceco should really address that as it also pops out when plugged into a cigarette lighter socket. Still think it’s a very good refrigerator otherwise. So bought the GO20 to use as a 2nd refrigerator/freezer for use in my Peterbilt 579. For the space that it needed to occupy and the price, it seemed to be the best option. I will say, that if your putting it in a standard 579 like mine versus and Ultraloft, and have a 24” TV mounted to the standard mount that comes in the Peterbilt, you will need to attach a swivel mount and have the tv at and angle while traveling. In theory based on the dimensions it should fit without the modification but the angle of the back corner of the wall as well as the need to keep the grill on the refrigerator clear means your shy about and inch for all practical purposes. It will fit but it pushes on the tv pretty solidly and a few bumps down the road are going to break the tv. A 22” tv or smaller shouldn’t need any modifications. The refrigerator has and app to control it on iOS and Android. I’m iOS so I can’t speak to Android functionality but on the iPhone it works flawlessly. I’ve seen some other people complain they couldn’t pair the refrigerator with their phone but my experience is you don’t need to. Once you install the app, when it’s near the refrigerator, it just see’s it without needing to go into the Bluetooth menu and pairing. I think it’s using something akin to Ultra Wide Band versus standard Bluetooth to connect. There’s a whole thing in the book about how to calibrate the temp settings versus a thermometer but I didn’t need to do that. The super chill feature will get the left side down to close to zero in about 45 minutes and it will freeze water bottles rather quickly. I find its easiest to set parameters in the app versus on the touch pad on the refrigerator. Everything on mine already came using American units but that can be switched in the app if your feeling French. Reliability in the truck is a mixed bag. It seems to have a hard time maintaining temps when plugged into the cigarette lighter when the truck has been off for a while and I think that has everything to do with the the battery protection built in. It just doesn’t do a good job of sending the actual voltage so even when you set the refrigerator to the lowest protection level, it wants to think your available voltage is lower than it is and I’m running 1kw of solar panels. That’s the bad. The good is that if you have a decent true sine wave inverter like a Xantrax or the one that comes with a Tripac, it will run off of that and all those issues go away. It will not work on a normal inverter like what most of the truck stops sell and if you’ve got a small auxiliary true sine wave inverter, like the little 300 watt one I’m running it’s going to pop it’s protection circuit. My 1000/1500 watt Xantrax seems to be able to run this, a 1000 watt microwave and a couple of battery chargers no problem at the same time. If your going to buy this to use in a truck like I did, your either going to want to buy the grey one that comes with the insulating bag or if you just have to have white, splurge on the bag for $59. The refrigerator is very shiny and the space between the wall and the mattress is tight with a small knob sticking out for the passenger sleeper window. Your going to scratch the heck out of it without the bag. The thing seems to be very energy efficient but I’m guessing the insulated bag helps a lot. Shipping time was not good. It took almost three months to get to me so I am just a bit worried if it needs warranty. I’m guessing that has a lot to do with COVID 19 so I’ll just hope it stays reliable. There where a couple other options I found that would have been a slightly better fit but the amount of storage in them wasn’t as good. There where some others that where using the good compressor that this frig uses that also would have fit and have decent room inside but they where all way more expensive. Shiny plastic shell aside, the GO20 seems to be a well designed machine and it is sturdy. If it holds up which I think it will, it’s dollar for dollar the best bang for the bucks I’ve found and I looked long and hard. I think if your looking for and extra truck frig, you probably can’t go wrong with this frig.

The ICECO GO20 Dual Zone fridge has been a great addition for car use, camping, and as a home backup. The dual-zone design is extremely practical — I can keep drinks cold on one side while freezing food on the other, and the temperature control is accurate and easy to use. It cools quickly and maintains a steady temperature even in warmer conditions. It performs efficiently on 12V in the car without noticeable battery drain, and its compact size makes it easy to fit while still holding a good amount of food and drinks. For camping, it’s a huge upgrade over traditional coolers, and it’s also been very useful at home when extra fridge or freezer space is needed. The build quality feels solid, and the brand clearly stands behind what they make, which gives extra confidence in long-term use. Overall, this is a dependable and well-designed portable fridge that I would highly recommend.

The fridge looks really sleek and fits in great in the frunk of my Rivian. So nice and neat for family camping trips and weekend getaways. No ice melting, no need to get refills, super clean. I keep it in the car all the time in case I need to stop somewhere after shopping and keep my items cool. ICECO’s support has been really accommodating as well.

I'm adding an edit to the review below. The company reached out to me after this review and sent me a replacement (free of charge) adapter. It fits more securely now - and should keep the 'frig running smoothly durning long periods of driving. So, it was a great customer service experience. With my stimulus money in hand, and a long year inside over, I've decided it is time to get out for a few camping trips. Looking at my almost antique collection of gear - it seemed time for an upgrade. So, I thought replacing my old cooler with a smaller, more modern, portable refrigerator would be great. Because I was lucky enough to have a little extra cash I thought I'd go for a top of the line product. I came across all the Iceco reviews and advertisements on the web and Youtube and thought it would be a little less expensive (than a Dometic), but still good quality, and with the extra budgeted money I could get a solar powered battery charger like a Jackery or Rockpals. That said here's my experience after a couple of trips with the new Iceco 12.8 size. It arrived from Amazon in a box so big it took up most of the Postman's delivery Jeep. The box was so big I couldn't see my mailman as he carried the thing up to my door. Inside the Amazon box the Manufactures box kept the refrigerator secure. Which was a good thing because amazon just put in their typical two air pillows to keep the box within from sliding around. Why didn't amazon just slap a label on the manufacture box instead of such a crazy double box? Although that's Amazon and not the manufactures fault. The Iceco worked great when I plugged it into the wall and let it run for a couple of days at home. No problems. If you want a small icebox in a dorm or tiny home this would be perfect! HOWEVER, when I plugged the unit into my cars cigarette lighter socket I had problems. For the first few hours it worked great. After an afternoon of driving the cooler started giving me an E1 error and stopped running. After trying different configurations, I was able to plug the refrigerator into my Rockpals using the adapter and adapter power cable. As long as the Rockpals was charged the Iceco worked. (Just one problem - the Rockpals doesn't provide power while it is being recharged. If it's recharging via solar power my Rockpals can take up to 8 hours on a sunny day). On a hot day, the Iceco stayed cooler than the outside temp, but I wouldn't trust it with easily spoiled food like meats or dairy after being unplugged for that long. I've tried it a couple more times - and the 12V/24V DC power cable (cigarette lighter end) is loose and any normal road movement causes it to be disconnected. My vehicle is a 2019 Prius so it rides pretty smoothly. I am, and drive like, an old lady. So for it to be so delicate as to disconnect while the vehicle is in motion makes it less than portable in my book. The finial disappointment - and this is part my fault for not visualizing better - although I did measure the area twice..... I purchased the smallest size because I thought from my measurements that it would fit behind the passenger seat. Which it really doesn't. If the Prius passenger seat is pushed fully forward I can put box on the floor and muscle the Iceco behind the seat but that really doesn't give the refrigerator enough space to vent and the lid doesn't open enough to be useful. The inside capacity of the12 litter Iceco is pretty small for such a big case, but I knew that going in. I wanted to mention it in closing in case you are on the fence about which size to get. Might as well get the slightly bigger capacity and figure out what other item you want to leave home to make room for the refrigerator.

Expectations & Purchase Background A few months ago, I purchased the ICECO GO20 specifically for camping trips in my Jeep. My main goal was to find a compact, rugged fridge that could reliably keep food cold or frozen, whether powered by the Jeep’s 12V outlet or a portable power station. Performance & Day-to-Day Use The fridge has been riding in the back of my Jeep through various camping trips and off-road excursions. It plugs in easily, cools down fast, and both zones can be accurately set for refrigeration or freezing. The unit’s app is straightforward—connecting and adjusting temperatures from my phone has been seamless. The controls on the fridge itself are also intuitive. Pros - Cools and freezes quickly, even after powering off for a while - App control is user-friendly (Bluetooth), and manual controls are simple - Fits nicely in the back of a Jeep without taking up excessive space - Dual zone allows for keeping drinks chilled and food frozen at the same time - Quiet operation, doesn’t disturb sleep in the tent at night - Build seems robust, handles have held up well to frequent movement Cons - No significant issues encountered after several months - Included power cords could be a bit longer for more placement flexibility - Fridge does not have good tie-down points, making secure mounting in a vehicle a challenge Description Accuracy The fridge delivers exactly as advertised: true dual zone cooling, with consistent performance on both 12V DC and AC power. The app and separate controls meet expectations set by the product description. Takeaways & Recommendation If you need a reliable, portable refrigerator/freezer for a vehicle or camping setup, the ICECO GO20 is a great option. The combination of flawless function, easy controls, and rugged build make it ideal for overlanders or anyone needing independent cold storage on the go. I would recommend this to other Jeep or van campers without hesitation.

Purchased this unit to keep drinks cold in my vehicle. It really does a good job at that. I mostly power it from an Ecoflow rechargeable battery pack. It can run all day on it. The ICECO GO20 unit when running only draws about 43 watts. You can also split the compartment and run 1/3 as freezer and the remainder as a fridge. The bluetooth app also lets you see and set the temperature remotely. Great little unit. I highly recommend it. I also bought the insulated cover to protect the beautiful finish and D-rings to secure it from sliding around if I have to brake suddenly.

I set it to the most basic mode of 0F freezer, 39F fridge. After running for a while to cool down, It states that the freezer is 0F and the fridge is 39F, even though the freezer is more like 10 degrees according to multiple thermometers. Then the fridge drops all the way to 32 (freezing) and the freezer is still around 10F even though the display says 0F. I let it run for another hour. Now the display still says the temps are 0F/39F, but the freezer is 0F and the Fridge is 30F (freezing). I guess if I want my ice cream frozen, I get frozen veggies too. Tried to get tech support, and customer service sends me an email to reply to, and I have to hope tech support ever calls me back. Tried it on single zone mode, and the compressor pulls almost 70 watts and sounds like a baby rattle, even when the fridge has reached it's set temperature, and the compressor is just cycling to maintain the temp. I don't think this is really a dual zone fridge. I think it just cools the freezer side some fixed amount more and prays that the temps just work out. I don't think this has any sort of intelligent temperature sensing and valve control on the cooling for the two zones. If it does have real dual zone control, then its performance is particularly sad. The zone divider fits rather loosely, and likely does a very poor job of isolating the temperatures of the two sizes. Sometimes the display and app show nonsense temperatures, such as -8 degrees for the fridge size, or big temp jumps of 10+ degrees. There is no firmware update in the app, so perhaps ICECO never plans to fix anything with this fridge. The touch buttons are very flakey. You have to press them with just the right amount of force to get them to work. I have very little confidence that the buttons will last. Finally, if they just made it an inch taller, a gallon or half gallon of milk would fit. I guess they don't want it competing with the next larger size fridge. I would give this fridge zero stars if I could, especially as it is expensive, and made by what is supposed to be a reputable brand. Returning after one day of evaluation.
