In my opinion, after having propane for decades I have no desire to go back to one. They are great for trailers with limited power sources, but with the modern all electric coaches and diverse power plants, the residential fridges are a good match to a motorhome. Add the outside compressor driven refrigeration/freezer unit and you have a rig capable of the long haul or the short weekend. Not once do we worry about uneven temperatures, fail to light, air in the line, level parking, or I guess... fire.
All things being equal I suspect most all of us would prefer a propane
refrigerator but things are not equal .
For what ever reason propane friges today are fire hazards
There has been way to many fires to ignore .
I personally haven't heard of a single residential frig fire .
