Full wall slides
I read on TCM that fridges on full wall slides are noiser because of an extra fan? Looking for feedback from owners who have this option.

It was also in the review of the new Lance 1052.
"While a full-wall slide would have increased the floor space and wow factor of the 1052’s interior, it also would have increased the weight of the camper, and put the refrigerator on the slide. Weight questions aside, putting a refrigerator on a slide-out requires side cooling and the employment of an additional fan in the refrigerator.
Noisy refrigerator fans are a point of contention for many slide-out truck camper owners. Most never considered refrigerator fan noise until the first night they went to sleep in their campers. For this reason, we believe Lance made the right choice, even if if would have been neat to see a full-wall slide. We’ll take a good nights sleep over a little more floor space any day.It was in the review of the new Lance 1052"
