Dometic CFX3-25 Fridge/Freezer

Compact enough for a tight galley, powerful enough to freeze solid — the Dometic CFX3-25 is built for couples and solo travellers running a lean campervan conversion.

Benefits:
• Compact 25L footprint fits neatly into smaller van kitchens and bench builds.
• VMSO3 compressor cools right down to –22°C, even through a hot Kiwi summer.
• CFX3 app gives Bluetooth/WiFi monitoring so you can check temps without opening the lid.
• 3-stage battery protection stops the fridge draining your house battery flat.
• Tough ExoFrame body and aluminium handles shrug off gravel roads and boat ramps.
• Runs on 12V, 24V, or 240V — plug in at home, in the van, or off-grid.

Features:
The CFX3-25 packs a 25L capacity (around 33 cans) into a unit that weighs just 13.5kg, with a high-resolution colour display and soft-touch buttons for easy monitoring. Gasket sealing around the lid cuts power draw by keeping cold air locked in, and the variable-speed compressor adjusts itself to the load rather than running flat-out. As a portable unit rather than a fixed appliance, it doesn't use a flush mount frame like the NRX range — plan for a slide-out tray or a simple strap-down point in your build to keep it secure on the move.

Wire it through a dedicated fuse and use marine-grade cable for the run from your battery — undersized wiring is the most common cause of compressor fridges underperforming in van builds.

Need more room? The Dometic CFX3-45 steps up to 46L for couples on longer trips or small families.
