Good fridge for vanlife?

Costco has some Massimo fridges on sale. I ordered the 52q, hopefully it works out, otherwise it's covered by the generous Costco return policy.

I plan on using the Goal Zero Yeti 1400 with 100 or 200 watts of solar power. 

How much food are you able to store in the fridge?

Sorry I missed this question with all the issues the forum had the past few days.

I can store a 6pack, a quart of milk, couple pounds of cheese, several packages of lunch meats, butter, mayo, salsa, and some fruits/veggies (but not much so I'll try to stick with fruits/veggies that don't need a fridge).  It's a 20 quart capacity. If I just keep 2-3 bottles of water/soda/beer in it at a time, it will give a bit more room for fruits/veggies.  I'll use packaged meats as much as possible.

Just for clarification, there are a few standard fridge models that get relabeled for multiple brands.

For instance, the Massimo CX50 and for that matter all of the cx fridges have multiple brands attached to them. My Alpicool CX40 is the exact same unit as the one shown in the Costco link above.

If I bought enough from one of the factories in China and paid a small premium, I could have my own line of Happy Camper CX 12v refrigerators.

The most important thing you're looking for is a seller/"brand" that backs up the product better and has great customer service. The product might be the same, but these things can be more than worth spending a few bucks more.
