4.8 Rating 18 Reviews
Read Tentworld Reviews

Reliability, performance, efficiency and quality are all features of the Engel design. The Engel MR40F Eclipse Portable Fridge / Freezer is a great fridge perfect for weekends away. It's also ideal for general use for those who don't require the legendary strong steel Engel casing found on the Platinum series. This single zone unit can be used as a fridge or freezer and is thermostat controlled! The MR40F is powered by the famous, energy efficient Sawafuji swing motor and is packed with some great features including a lightweight polycarbonate casing and protective rubber corners, meaning the Eclipse is even easier to carry than the steel cases that feature on the MT models. The Eclipse Fridge/Freezer has a reversible lid to suit your needs and can be powered by 240V or 12/24V, which is great for camping and touring! The superior polyurethane insulation and turbofan provides excellent performance when you need it most. If you're interested in extra protection, the Engel Transit Bag suits Eclipse MR40F Fridge/Freezer is an available accessory (sold separately).

Haven't taken it camping yet but used it at home. It chilled the beers really cold. We left it running all night in our bedroom as a noise test for the camper without any issues. I'm looking forward to getting away with this new unit.

Delivery was fast and good. Fridge/freezer was in good condition, packed in double layer of carton box. But clips of the lid are not really tight. Over all we are happy with this product.

We have not used the product yet, but we were very impressed with the service when ordering online and the delivery times from when the fridge was ordered and day if delivery. Product has been unwrapped and inspected for defects and seems to be in good order.

Great fridge works well quiet small power usage and feels really well built like all engels, my only concern is the clips that hold the lid down are really cheap flimsy so will use a strap come on Engel you can do better.. Tentworld are awsome very fast delivery with the product . would give the fridge 5 stars except for the crap lid clips . but a great well built fridge.

Only problem so far, two weeks with the freezer running in the garage and being used from time to time is frost forming where the lid closes near the motor

Excellent unit, who needs fancy gear. I'm a retired Fridgie and needed something with a simple thermostat- no problems. Metal or plastic case who cares, same motor and electronics. Wife complained because food took too long to defrost at -18C so turned it up to 13 just right. Bought a cover that protects the case but does little else so I lined the cover with real 12mm cotton insulation used for packing furniture - magic. Fitted a cheap max/min alarm for $20 from Jaycar in case of faults - no such thing. Real happy.
