Atwood versus Norcold Refridgerators

Is that the new Helium fridge?
If so then we haven't heard much about them which is probably a good thing..

Yes it is.

Only difference is the use of Helium vs Hydrogen.....less of a fire hazard should cooling unit tube crack.

Tests were conducted.....no significant difference in cooling ability

I've had both brands and never a problem.

You're probably going to be seeing more Atwood fridges in the future. They're maybe $250-$350 cheaper than the competition. Quality appears to be about the same.

Whenever a manufacturer can save money, they'll take it.

I was talking to a large RV fridge repair shop when my old fridge broke. They said that RV fridges are only good for about 10 years, and as there's no provision for draining moisture off the evaporator coils. But they're capable of being rebuilt. But even getting new coils is an expensive proposition.

Between Atwood fridges and Lippert Awnings, its a foreign RV world to me this year
