In our first C, we replaced an old Dometic RM763 with a 2852. I don't understand why they're a DM model sometime (other than to express DoMetic) and RM model other times.
I suspect the DM series has fewer features, offered by Dometic because that's as much as the trailer manufacturer is willing to pay for the unit and has contracted for. We had an RM model Dometic in a previous travel trailer and like many of these fridges it had a climate control heater with a switch that would allow turning the system off when dry camping - i.e. powering the trailer on battery power alone. Our current trailer has a DM series Dometic fridge and although it does also have a climate control heating element there is no way to turn it off ... so I added my own. The devil is often in the details. :W
