Haier Residential Fridge Reliability

[lenr]

We're considering a fifth wheel with a Haier 15 cu. ft. residential fridge option. Would like to hear good/bad experiences with this brand in RVs. The other option is a 4 door 12.5 cu. ft. (Dometic I think) gas/electric fridge, and would take comments on that as well.

Thanks for the replies--we're going with the Haier.

I carry a Haier in the basement. Works like a champ. Puts the Dometic in the camper to shame. Wish I had a residential fridge inside. Plus, the residential should keep your ice cream frozen.

We have one here at the house, over 10 years now with not one.....'Bad Haier Day'.....lol

Had to inject some humor....

Had a Haier ~10ft in our previous 5er. Was about a year old when we got it, used for another 5yrs without problems.

I have a Dometic gas/electric fridge in the motorhome in my sig. It's 16 years old and never a problem.

I also have a Haier apartment fridge, 1.7 cubic feet, in a compartment for about 10 years and still works fine after the abuse it has had....cold, hot and bouncing all over the country. I would recommend the brand.

I've had one for 6/7 years, 10.5 cf, has worked great. If you do a lot of off grid rv'ing, think twice about it. I certainly hope it's lot cheaper to go with the residential than the gas?

These posts with Haier in them may help.
