Mini Refigerator for Basement Usage?

Question

My refrigerator just went out on my class A diesel pusher.  I'm considering purchasing a mini-refrigerator (not a RV refrigerator) that would fit into the basement compartment as a temporary solution.  I'd keep the coils clear for air flow.  Any other solutions or considerations are welcomed.

Are you talking about a little dorm cube?  They are pretty hardy and I wouldn't think a short stay in the basement would do it in. I would give you one I think I have a couple in my basement at home.

The problem in the basement is air flow. The compartment is likely to heat up fast. Putting it inside the coach may be a better idea.

You might consider replacing the RV fridge with a residential refrigerator. If you are on grid 99%, you will not have issues. If you are long long driving trips, you may need to run the genny for a short period. Not opening the doors will help in this.

If off grid you would need to add batteries.

I used one in there in the winter when I had my main house fridge pulled and replaced with a residential.

I have a 27" tall one in one of my compartment. It is used  all the time with no heat issue.
