Doug....I read it again....makes sense to me. I thought I gave him great advice. Buy a residential if you keep it, put an Amish in if you're going to sell.
The last statement comes from seeing a dozen posts like this where the residential haters, who've never had one or one won't even fit, come on and complain about residential units. Yet, you never see someone with a residential unit ever complain and wish they had a Norcold or Dometic.
Doug.....I respect your posts and you always have good/best information when it comes to all types of appliances, but I never understood your love and ongoing defense of absorption units. I am an absorption unit hater!. I've had several over the years including the Norcold 1200. I'm not a hater because they catch fire, (I think the percentage is low), but because they just don't cool well, you can't buy a seal for the door without buying the door, no technical support, etc. Many got stuck with them and Norcold got away with a cheap $5.00 fix that went through a half dozen generations of the fix because they were junk too!
What I don't understand is how you so vehemently defend these. You can say I'm wrong, but the RV industry doesn't seem to think so. The future of large RV refrigerators is not absorption units.
