We ordered a 2016 3100RL with the options we wanted and it has been great so far. I received updates from the factory and they made it a shipping priority to our dealer once it was built. We only had a few minor issues like a loose ceiling fan blade and some rear ladder screws that I took care of and it has never been back to the dealer. I would buy one again but there is always a chance you get a unit like one poster has had nothing but trouble with. I think that's a risk with any brand out there. They all can make a lemon sometimes.
We have the big Norcold 18CF RV fridge and it has a lot of room and has performed flawless so far. I can tell you it uses a lot more power than a regular RV fridge because it has several fans built in. It has 2 inside and 2 or 3 outside that come on depending on how hot it is. When running on propane you can hear the burner 20 feet away so it will go through some propane also.
Also keep in mind they are heavy and tall. Our 3100 is the smallest one they make and equipped with a washer and dryer our pin weight is about 3,400 ready to camp. We pull with a Ram dually so weight is not an issue for us. Good luck with whatever you decide.
