Our verdict

Suits an RV or boat owner who wants an upright 80L dual-zone fridge-freezer with listed dimensions and bottle counts, and who will check the conflicting copy with the store. Look elsewhere if you need a confirmed wattage, a clear app connection or an AC input. The main caveat is that the page mixes in notes that do not fit a 12V compressor model.

Best for
An RV or boat with room for an upright 80L dual-zone fridge-freezer of 17.95 x 19.69 x 32.68 inches.
Skip if
You need a confirmed wattage, a clear app connection method or a 100-240V AC input.

Why 3.5/5: A table covering capacities, weight, dimensions and bottle counts is the page's strongest point. Against it stand policy wording that does not match the store's product pages, Trustpilot feedback that faults its support and no independent test of this model.

The DR80 is an upright 80L (2.82 Cu.ft) fridge-freezer, listed at $599.99, that the page calls a dual-zone 12V unit. Its description splits the space into a 51L fridge and a 29L freezer, and the table gives 17.95 (D) x 19.69 (W) x 32.68 (H) inches and 54.01 pounds. The page adds app control, a reversible door and 3 battery protection levels, while its store title also mentions dual doors.

Options and pricing

One variant is listed at $599.99 and the page shows a crossed-out price of $899.99. The size option on that variant reads 83L, not 80L. It was in stock when read. No battery, power station or mounting frame option appears, and the table marks the mounting frame as No and batteries included as NO.

How it compares

The Bodega Cooler CR85X 83L Upright RV and Truck Fridge is an upright 83L/2.94 Cu.ft model listed from $559.99, against 80L/2.82 Cu.ft at $599.99 here; this page's own size option also reads 83L. The Bodega Cooler 110L (116QT) RV Refrigerator Freezer is $839.99 at 110L.

Shipping, returns and warranty

Shipping: the shipping page offers free standard shipping around mainland US from US warehouses (the FAQ names California, Texas and Pennsylvania), with 1 business day of processing, a tracking email once the order ships, and no delivery to PO, APO or FPO addresses; the address cannot be changed after shipment. Some products can go to Canada, Germany and Italy for an extra $35 (8 to 15 business days) or to the UK for an extra $60, while the FAQ says every product ships to the continental US, only part of the range to Canada and only the detachable battery to Europe. Returns: an order can be cancelled within 24 hours by email or phone; after it ships a double shipping fee comes off the refund and a 2% transaction fee may apply. A return within 30 days needs an email to [email protected] for a return authorization first, an unused, uninstalled product in its original packaging, and shipping back within 7 days of the refund confirmation to the Rancho Cucamonga, California address; the buyer pays the shipping, while for a defective or damaged item the store says it refunds the shipping fee after photos or video. Orders bought from Amazon, Walmart or other resellers are not covered. Exchanges within 30 days carry a restocking fee and shipping that vary by brand. The page gives the refund time as 3 to 7 business days in one place and up to 7 in another, and the FAQ says 1 to 3. Warranty: the warranty page promises 2 years on products bought directly from bodegacooler.com, with the exact period on the last page of the manual, and also says a 1-year warranty extends to 2 years by registering the product (the FAQ says register within 10 days of purchase); it covers defects in materials and workmanship, not misuse, accidents or unauthorized repair, and not products from third-party sellers. Some product pages state other terms, such as a 5-year compressor warranty with 1 year on the rest, 24 months on the compressor and accessories, or a 5-year product warranty. Payment: Klarna, American Express, Discover, JCB, Mastercard, PayPal and Visa, plus regional methods such as Boleto, THAI QR PromptPay, Rabbit LINE Pay and ShopeePay, according to the FAQ.

Before you buy

The page shows no customer reviews. Reputation: on Trustpilot (read on the Australian site) bodegacooler.com is a claimed profile with a TrustScore of 2.6 from 16 reviews, 25% five-star and 69% one-star; the company rarely replies, and the newest reviews (August and September 2026) describe a 100-quart unit with about 60 quarts usable, a replacement that froze the fridge side, and unanswered support. A June 2026 review of a 3-door Bodega cooler sold on Amazon (The Inventory, which names no model code and may not cover this item) cites a 2.5/5 TrustScore and reports of damaged units and slow support. A web search found no BBB profile. The bodegacooler.com domain was registered on 27 May 2019. The store's FAQ says only one promotion code can be used per order and offers new customers 12% off fridges for subscribing to its newsletter, and some pages advertise their own sales and codes. The page shows a crossed-out regular price; that is the store's own comparison figure.

What we liked

  • Fridge and freezer sizes are given in the description: 51L and 29L
  • The table gives dimensions, weight and a bottle count
  • Bottle capacity is listed as 330ml x 141 / 500ml x 86 / 750ml x 37
  • A reversible door, adjustable shelves and an interior light are listed
  • Max and ECO cooling choices and 3 battery protection levels are listed

Worth noting

  • The use notes talk about an absorption refrigerator and plugging in at 110 V, which does not fit a 12V compressor fridge
  • App control is promised for the DR80, but the FAQ says the unit has no Wi-Fi, and how the app connects is not described
  • The size option reads 83L while the title says 80L
  • Several table rows show one value in a two-model table, so wattage and noise cannot be pinned to the DR80

Questions before you buy

How is the 80L divided?

The description gives a 51L fridge and a 29L freezer in a dual-zone setup. The table gives the fridge as 1.7 cu. ft and the freezer as 1.02 cu. ft, and the FAQ says the top is the freezer area and the bottom is the refrigerator area.

What power does it use?

The table lists 12 Volts and its feature row says Support 12/24V DC. The FAQ says a 100-240V power cord is not included and a 12V/24V power cord is available, yet the use notes also mention plugging in at 110 V, which the page leaves unexplained.

Does it have app control?

The description says temperatures, modes and voltage can be adjusted from a phone app. The FAQ, however, answers that this refrigerator does not support Wi-Fi connection, and the page does not say how the app connects.

Where does Bodega Cooler ship and how fast?

Free standard shipping covers mainland US from warehouses in the US, with 1 business day of processing; no PO, APO or FPO addresses. Some products can go to Canada, Germany, Italy (+$35, 8 to 15 business days) and the UK (+$60), but the FAQ lists fewer destinations, so check the product before ordering abroad.

What is the return window?

30 days from purchase for an unused, uninstalled product in its original packaging, after an email to [email protected] for a return authorization. The buyer pays the shipping unless the item is defective or damaged; cancellation is free within 24 hours of ordering. Orders from Amazon or other resellers are not covered.

How long is the warranty?

The warranty page says 2 years for purchases from bodegacooler.com, or 1 year extended to 2 by registering the product within 10 days of purchase (per the FAQ); the manual names the exact period. Some product pages state other terms, so keep the order number and ask support before relying on one figure.

What we couldn’t verify

  • The size option reads 83L while the title says 80L and the description's 51L fridge and 29L freezer add up to 80L; the table's 1.7 and 1.02 cu. ft add up to less than its 2.82 cu. ft total. The page explains neither.
  • The description promises app control, but the FAQ says no Wi-Fi support. The use notes also describe an absorption refrigerator and plugging in at 110 V, which does not match a 12V compressor fridge.
  • The table has two model columns (DR80 and CR85X) and its rows for wattage (80 watts), noise (45dB), installation type, drawers, defrost and shelves show one value, so the page does not say which model they describe.
  • The refund policy gives the refund time as 3 to 7 business days in one place and up to 7 in another, while the FAQ says 1 to 3.
  • The warranty page says 2 years and also 1 year extended to 2 by registering; some product pages state other terms, such as a 5-year compressor warranty with 1 year on the rest, 24 months on the compressor and accessories, or a 5-year product warranty.
  • No independent test of this model was found in the web searches made on 21 October 2026, and the page's own copy is the only source for its figures.
