Fridge replacement

Our first TT was a 1968 Kencraft, it had a propane only fridge in it and when we sold it in 1988 that fridge was still working perfectly. Our next TT was a 1990 Forest River. We ran that fridge on propane only for 15 years and never had a problem. The POs of our current MH changed out the RV fridge for this residential GE thing that has not worked right for us in the 3 years we have had it. Based on past experience I will go with an absorption fridge and run it strictly on propane and should be years before anything needs to be done again.

Finally got rid of that useless residential fridge and got it replaced with an RV fridge that runs on propane, 120 volt and 12 volt. Now we can get back to dry camping and going down the highway without having to listen to the generator.

My thoughts as well on having a residential, AC only refrigerator - makes no sense for those of us that don't want to jockey running the generator endlessly when doing a lot of dry camping or boondocking when out and about.

What brand and size refrigerator freezer did you buy, and where/what was your source for it?

You are One of very very few... to remove a residential in favor of an RV absorption fridge
Your happy.. so enjoy
Many of us run the generator when we need the roof top or basement a/c while driving
We don't need to do that for the fridge, the inverter with batteries and alternator do just fine to keep the fridge going

Adding solar would have worked well. When the absorption fridge dies I'll be doing residential.

ok
