The 28 is the right size for one or two people on short trips, and it is hard to beat for the money. The honest limits are capacity and insulation. Twenty-six cans is not much, and you do not get the vacuum insulated panels the CFX5 range has, so it works a little harder in real heat. If you tour off-grid for a week at a time, step up to a CFX5. Your order ships from Melbourne and your CFX2 carries a 5-year Dometic warranty backed by their Australian repair network.
