our 15 yr old dometic is working reasonably well, but thinking ahead!! rebuild it or replace it with an inexpensive house fridge which of course is 120 vac only. rv fridge is in great shape cosmetic...

Be sure to consider the new 120VAC/12VDC veriable speed compressor RV refrigerators. They draw around 8 amps DC.



This. My Norcold 1200 failed and I replaced with an Amish built as the compressor type wasn’t available yet.

Definitely the way I’d go.
