We had Norcolds and Dometics in previous trailers and fifth wheels, so we were familiar with their operation and cooling efficiency.<br />Let me just say, we'll never go back to a regular "RV" fridge again. The RR works great and you'll have no problems running it off of your inverter/battery set up.Steve Fischernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-23787199343781952552011-10-06T01:17:39.162-04:002011-10-06T01:17:39.162-04:00I don't even have one that big in my house.

The same way that there are with Chevrolet's vs Fords. Our personal experience with our 15 year old Norcold is great...it keeps on cooling.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.travelwithkevinandruth.com" rel="nofollow">www.travelwithkevinandruth.com</a>Kevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-88526724458529816592011-10-04T09:51:23.770-04:002011-10-04T09:51:23.770-04:00Just curious Randy, does the new fridge run on pro...Just curious Randy, does the new fridge run on propane at all? Does it keep running when you are moving, when you are boondocking? Our rig is a small one as you know, so we are currently fine with our Dometic.
