In 2015 I bought a new Dometic 2652 to replace the old failed unit, a 1999 Dometic 2652 with the dreaded ammonia leak. The interior was similar but the plastic adjustable shelving was thinner and a little cheaper quality IMO. Save the older shelves/drawers if you can because they are interchangeable. What made a huge difference for me was getting rid of those older idiotic finger pull door handles and replacing them with newer hand pull/thumb latch handles. They are much easier to open/close.
Other than that, the unit was very similar. The "reduce exterior moisture" switch/function was eliminated. If I remember correctly, it was about $1,300 installed, including tax, in Yuma, AZ.
The freezer runs at 0F and the refrigerator stays at 34F year round, just like it should. No issues so far.
