I have a Dometic 4 door. Big one. Our second one. First died after 6 years & in excess of 700 nights use.
Second appears to be dead after 10 years & 1700 nights on the road use. Tried the cheap way first. Replaced the thermistor. No luck. Can't see spending serious money on a 10 year old fridge that has been bounced around for so many miles.
We have also looked at residential fridges, much cheaper, but there is the problem with fit. Residentials work well for seasonal RVers sitting in one spot all summer. Not so good for travellers who will need a decent sized battery bank & inverter while on the road & will more or less be limited to CGs with power.
