Portable fridge, which one?

[atyl1972]

Hey everyone, myself and wife have just purchased a Campervan, T6 highline, it is quite a unique conversion, we don't have a fitted fridge in the van, we have a cupboard that's even kitted out with the 12v socket, and vents but....I cannot find a fridge that will fit it, and it looks like we have to got for a portable one, so any ideas on a decent one, not a huge one is needed, one that can hold the usuals, some small veg, salad bag, 2 pint milk etc, maybe a freezer too....although not sure about the power they use etc, can anyone advise. Also any other advice is very much appreciated.

You forgot to add ARB to that list.

I think I’d opt to modify the furniture and fit a fixed camper fridge like a Dometic.

We’re getting a kitchen fitted just now that has a smaller space for the fridge. We’re looking at a vitrifrigo 42L. I’m sure my fridge at home was half the price!!

I LOVE our Dometec CFX 35. Its low power usage is amazing it properly cools (can freeze as well).
Its large though, but thats ok we strap it down and it goes everywhere with us.

...(selection list based only on size...)

Handy list if those are all compressors? the key thing for Atyl1972 is to avoid Peltiers
