Question regarding residential refrigerators
We are tossing around the idea of ditching our toy hauler and going the traditional 5th wheel route. Some of the 5th wheels we are interested in only seem to be offered with residential refrigerators...

YOu should be able to order either a standard RV type absorption or.. If you google carefully both Dometic and Norcold at one time made what I call Danfoss class Refrigerators.. (NOTE Danfoss is ONE of at least 3 different compressor designs) Engel makes some Chest Style refrigerators (Top lid) and at least one model can hit 3.6 Degrees (Freezer) if you ask it to (That model is against my left leg as I type which is how I know) they call the compressor a "Sling compressor" about 40 watts.. That's about the same as a dual 1141 light fixture.
They cool slow. but they do work and as I said Dometic and Norcold do sell chest style units in that design but they also made at one time Upright models.. Do not know if they still do.. Very nice.
And remember.... If you are ordering NEW. they give you what you want or they see your backside walking out the door with a blank line where the contract says "Buyer's signature" and to a salesman that is a BIG problem. in fact it is the ONLY problem.
