Residential Refrigerator???

[abideejay]

I've got a travel trailer with a Dometic RM2652 absorption fridge. The fridge doesn't fridge anymore. 🙂

I've found this refrigerator at Home Depot: HMDR1030WE CLICKY

Does anyone have any real-world experience with this model? I'm not interested in the "this may work" or "the manual says it won't". I want REAL experience. I'm not particularly interested in fighting with the absorption fridge any longer, and I believe that going with a residential model will work for me.

The manufacture of this model fridge does not recommend that it be installed in a RV. Here is a link to their manual.
The Lowes 10 cu ft is a good choice. Haier 10.3 fridge.
There is a Whirlpool 10.76 that will fit. You need to watch that door is not mounted next to a wall.

We bought similiar from Lowes and put in the back of our trailer. It works fine for us. The old fridge is now a pantry. We are permanent for now. we will ratchet strap it down if travel with it. It is much more efficient than the rv fridge and bigger. we got a estimate of over 1000 to swap the cooling unit in the rv fridge. maybe later down the road.
