Fridge, new house fridge vs rebuild old rv fridge

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...

If you never camp off-grid more than a few hours then the compressor is fine.

Otherwise for off-grid camping I would replace the absorption fridge with a brand new direct replacement.

Either way no replacement until it fails.
