3.0 cu ft refrigerator?

[Vic99]

My older Jayco 1207 has a Dometic 2310 refrigerator which is 3.0 cu ft and has a freezer compartment at the top. It is about 29" - 30" tall. I am now looking to buy a newer used pup but all the refrigerators are smaller and have no freezer. I guess this is because they all have the flip up galley. Anyone know of units that have a larger refrigerator?

When we moved to the highwall, I was mildly interested in the freezer section of our larger refrigerator. I have used it a couple of times only to store Freezer Pops for kids. That's pretty much it. I'm not sure what is available as a larger refrigerator without a freezer section but if you can find one without, go for it.

I would rather have the interior space for refrigerables instead of freezer space. Still, the refrigerator section is larger than the standard PUP fridge so that was definitely noticed and appreciated.

Interesting! Sacrifice a bed size or two, and you Can put a bigger fridge in. Thanks for clarifying that. Im pretty sure Id rather have the bigger bed. I really wouldn't use the freezer, and you can always get a second cooler. You can't really change the bed size. You have me very curious now. May I ask why the necessity for an extra cubic foot of fridge space and a tiny freezer?

The pup is in my driveway and it is indeed a 1996 Jayco 1207 Designer Series with a Dometic RM2310. In this unit the front bunk is the smaller of the two bunks and butts up against the refer when in the closed position. A 12' or 14' foot box pup does have enough room to fit a 30 inch high refer. I do not understand why apparently none are equipped this way.

Ive only seen the High Walls with the larger fridges. Actually, Id think you were mistaken about the 1207 having a larger fridge if you hadn't known the model number. Or possibly the model of the pup isn't accurate. I could easily be wrong but there just isn't enough height available for a 3 cu ft on a non-high wall in my experience.

Thanks for the helpful suggestion but all high wall are really too heavy for my Town & Country minivan rated at 3500# towing capacity.

Take a look at high wall models. Forest River states they have an "extra large refrigerator" option for those.
