residential refrigerator vs rv gas/electric refrigerator?

We replaced our failing Norcold fridge with a residential fridge a couple of years ago. There's no way we would want to go back to an RV absorption fridge now. It wouldn't be a deal breaker for us on a new RV, but at the first sign of trouble, I wouldn't hesitate to go right back to a residential fridge. On the other hand, we don't boondock much any more, and I can understand why those that do would want the flexibility of electric or LP cooling.
