I would suggest to find a fridge that is at least Energy Star compliant. Not for the cute sticker but one that uses the least amount of power. You never know when the battery and inverter will be called on to save many $$$ of food.
As was mentioned, solar power is a great fit for a residential fridge in an RV.
Good advice. When I was looking at them last year, I found that an Energy Star rated unit was about $100 more but used considerably less power. If your going to run it on a battery for any length of time then an efficient unit is money well spent.
I would also add as much insulation as possible during the install.
