Most common seems to be a Samsung.
Samsung RF157 WAS the "popular" LARGE fridge for large trailers, 5vrs, motorhomes since it was a large fridge with a shallow depth with 20 plus cu ft of space..
That model has been discontinued.
Many other fridges can be used and for smaller fridges there is a category called "apartment" type fridges. Typically 8 - 13 cu ft in size they are pretty well suited for RV retrofits..
You can often find them under the names of Magic Chef, GE, Haier and a few others which are built by the same company. I have a Haier 10 cu ft fridge that is now going on it's 9th year of use in our RV..
Just look around Home Depot and Lowes and look for the 10 or so cu ft size..
When retrofitting you will need to make the fridge cabinet deeper, home fridges tend to be several inches deeper than a RV fridge.. So you will have to build out the cabinet a few inches or if OK with fridge sticking out you could leave as is..
But you do need to make sure the home fridge will make it into your RV.. So measure carefully before buying..
We love ours..
