Air Conditioner - Dometic or Coleman better?
We are trying to decided between a (non-ducted) Dometic Brisk Air II unit or a Coleman Mach 8 unit. It's a second A/C in the bedroom for a (50 amp) 33' travel trailer. Have heard good and bad things...

Follow up. We drove 5 hours on vacation to get to our favorite refrigeration and AC man, Leon at National Refrigeration in Shipshewana, IN. Leon said the replacement unit supplied free by Dometic is now toast. We only used it in October 15 and May 16, and it is shot. I was ready to go Atwood, Coleman, anything, but wiring changes and transition piece difference would have caused that to take too long. So, went with a scratch and dent Dometic unit built in Elkhart before they switched to Chinese manufacturing. We'll see how long this one lasts. The good news not only is that it works, but that the 10 - 12 button thermostat and associated control board also work well with none of the crazy fan switching sounds.
