As the CFX3 series winds down, Dometic has introduced the new CFX5 series, a modern upgrade that redefines portable cooling with advanced features, improved energy efficiency, and rugged durability. With smart technologies and refined design, the CFX5 Dometic Fridge Freezers offer the latest in outdoor refrigeration, perfect for adventure seekers who want to keep their food and drinks at the ideal temperature wherever they roam.
Why Choose The CFX5 Dometic Fridge Freezers?
The CFX5 Series is the latest in Dometic’s lineup of premium portable fridge/freezers. Built with innovative Vacuum Insulated Panel (VIP) technology, these units ensure optimal cooling performance without weighing you down. They’re designed to minimize power usage, making them ideal for extended trips where energy efficiency is key.
Innovations In Power Efficiency
A standout upgrade in the CFX5 Dometic Fridge Freezer range is power efficiency. The advanced VIP insulation and new VMSO3.5 compressor are engineered to consume less power than the CFX3, making the CFX5 series ideal for extended off-grid adventures. For example, the CFX5 35 uses just 0.77 Ah/h, which is approximately 20% lower than the CFX3 35 model, maximizing battery life without compromising performance.
Built For Durability: ExoFrame Construction
The CFX5 Dometic Fridge Freezers introduces a new ExoFrame construction that enhances strength without adding unnecessary weight, making it a tougher and more resilient choice for rugged terrain. Both the CFX3 and CFX5 offer aluminum alloy handles, but the CFX5’s ExoFrame elevates durability to a new level, ideal for 4WD and intense outdoor use.
Enhanced User Interface And Connectivity
The CFX5 Dometic Fridge Freezers also feature an upgraded high-resolution, weather-resistant color display. This modern display is designed for better readability, while the Bluetooth and WiFi controls enable users to manage temperatures and monitor performance via the improved Dometic app. This upgrade streamlines control and enhances your overall user experience, especially in outdoor settings.
Extended Warranty For Peace Of Mind
Dometic backs the CFX5 series with a 5-year warranty, an upgrade from the 3-year warranty on the CFX3. This extended warranty underlines the series’ build quality and reliability, providing added assurance for outdoor adventurers investing in a top-tier portable Dometic Fridge Freezer.
