Maria, most full-size Energy Star fridges use 100–800 watts depending on their cycle. The 1500+ # BL83ZR can easily handle the startup surge and keep a typical fridge running for ~ 20 hours without recharge. If you open the door less and pair it with solar, you can extend that through a longer outage.
I also recommend bringing this portable power bank with you on roadtrips, camping trips, tailgating events, pool parties, etc. It's very versatile!
