The Owner's Insights on the Dometic CFX5 75DZ
Dual zone is the one thing the rest of the range cannot do. Two compartments, two lids, two temperatures. Frozen meat on one side and cold beer on the other, at the same time, all trip.
It is a big unit. 892mm long, 495mm deep and 27.7kg empty. That wants a dedicated slide and a proper tray, not your boot.
The draw is the honest part. Running the small zone at minus 15 and the big one at 4, it pulls 2.45 amp-hours an hour at 12V in 32 degree heat. That is around 59 amp-hours a day, so a 100Ah battery is under two days.
Honest bit. If you do not need a freezer running at the same time as your fridge, the 55 does the job for 350 less and uses a third of the power.
Why You'll Love the Dometic CFX5 75DZ
- True dual zone. Run a freezer and a fridge at once at different temperatures, so frozen meat and cold drinks travel together.
- 75 litres and 113 cans. Enough for a family on a proper trip, split however you want between the two zones.
- Two independent lids. Open one side without dumping the cold out of the other, which is what keeps the draw sensible.
- Vacuum insulated panels. Dometic builds vacuum panels into the walls, so it holds cold longer on less power.
- Freezes to minus 22 degrees. Either zone can be set anywhere from plus 20 down to minus 22, so you decide which side does what.
- Bluetooth and the Dometic app. Check both zones from the swag and watch what each side is drawing.
Why You Should Consider a Dometic Portable Fridge
Dometic has been building mobile refrigeration for decades, and the CFX range is the part of the line-up made for touring rather than fixed installs. What matters most to you here is the back end. Dometic backs your CFX5 75DZ with a 5-year Australian warranty, and supports it through a repair network based here. You can see the rest of the range in our Dometic collection.

What Size Power Station Runs the CFX5 75DZ
Running as a true dual zone your fridge averages 2.45 amp-hours an hour at 12V, which is about 706 watt-hours a day. That is three times what a single zone box uses, so a 1,000Wh power station is under a day and a half. This model wants a decent battery bank and solar behind it, not a small power station. If you are not sure what size suits your setup, the Power Station Finder asks you a few questions and gives you a straight answer, or browse the portable power station range.
Dometic CFX5 75DZ vs the CFX5 95DZ
Both are true dual zone. The 95DZ gives you 19 more litres and 20 more cans, for 70mm more length and 1.8kg more weight, and it draws 2.83 amp-hours an hour against 2.45. Unless you are feeding a big group or staying out a long time, the 75DZ is the sensible one for you, and it is 100 dollars cheaper. Check your slide length first, because 892mm is already a lot of your tray.
Fitting the CFX5 75DZ to a Fridge Slide
There are M6 threaded inserts moulded into the base, so you can bolt it to a fridge slide or your drawer system without drilling the shell. The box is 892mm long, 495mm deep and 472mm high, and it weighs 27.7kg empty. Make sure your slide is rated for the loaded weight, not just the size, and leave clearance at the back for the vent and the power socket. If a portable box is not the answer and you want a fridge built into the van, look at the RV fridge range instead.

Not Sure Which Camping Fridge Suits You?
Do you genuinely need your freezer and your fridge running at once? That is the only reason to pay for dual zone. The honest limits are size and power. At 892mm long and 27.7kg empty it needs a dedicated slide, and at 2.45 amp-hours an hour it uses about three times what the single zone 55 does. If you can live with one temperature at a time, the 55 saves you money and saves your battery. Your order ships from Melbourne and your CFX5 carries a 5-year Dometic warranty backed by their Australian repair network.
