Pros and cons

According to our cooler expert

You can use this cooler to cool and freeze products.
With a 38L capacity, this is a large cooler.
The cooler has a 12V, a 24V, and 230V plug.
The cooler weighs 21kg, which makes it less easy to carry alone.

Description

The Dometic CFX 40 is an electric compressor cooler that cools and freezes. You can easily adjust the temperature via the digital screen. With a 38L capacity, it can keep up to 13 cans or 5 bottles of 1.5L cool. It can cool food and drinks during a long car ride, because the cooler has a 12 and 24V plug. You can connect the cooler to a standard socket. This means you can also use it on other places, like on a campsite. You can enjoy a cool bite or drink on the go or while camping. The lid on the CFX 40 cooler stays open if you grab something from the cooler, so it won't fall on your fingers.

Tough cool box that works perfectly

Very solid and robust
Cold quickly
Beautiful design
Expensive, but then you get something

Nice cool box. Finally a box with a cool look. Top for Coolblue: also sell the Domestic stool to put the cool box on. Now I had to order this from another store.

Dometic CFX 40: Cooling performance top, functionality disap

cools quickly
looks robust
12V connection does not work

The Dometic CFX 40 promises adventurous cooling with a robust construction, a spacious interior and convenient controls. Unfortunately, my experience with this cooler proved mixed.

Positive points: Excellent cooling: The CFX 40 cools surprisingly quickly and effectively, even at high temperatures. Perfect for travelling, festivals or warm summer days. Spacious interior: With a 40 liter capacity, there is enough room for food and drinks for a few days. Ideal for families, picnics or long road trips. Robust construction: The cool box is made of high-quality materials and can withstand a blow. Handy for outdoor adventures or in the car. User-friendly display: The digital display is easy to operate and provides clear information about the temperature.

Negative points: Defective 12V connection: A major stumbling block was the defective 12V connection on my copy. This meant that the cool box could not be used in the car, which is a major limitation for mobility. Poor build quality 12V cable: The included 12V cable felt cheap and did not seem to be of high quality. You can expect more from a cool box in this price range.

Conclusion: The Dometic CFX 40 excels in cooling performance, but the defective 12V connection is a significant drawback. If the 12V connection does not work when you purchase it, I will be worried about future problems with this cool box. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this cool box with confidence.

really cool freeze box!

runs either on 12v car plug or on standard 220v house plug
very efficient thermal isolation
it easily reach negative temperature from ambient 25°C
do not have an internal battery

We used it to transport food inside the car for a long journey to a far remote holiday destination. The journey inside the car was more than 12h (from Belgium to far in the mountains in switzerland). The food (beef) was perfect afterwards. We placed to box on the rear seat of the car between the 2 kids: it fits perfectly. A larger box won't be as good because it would prevent the front seat to be at a normal "upward" angle.
