Their esky are the best available, i own one it will easily keep ice for like a week, with constant use. Their fridges are the same, as they make an esky and put a fridge unit on the side so to speak (ie the sides of the fridge are made with the same process as their esky). So the fridge doesn't work as hard as other brands, thus staying cold for longer with less power usage. Thats my 2 cents with anyway

these are the ice-box looking fridges hey? i've heard only good things about them, economical, use very little power. I use to sell engels and i've heard the eva kool fridges are just as good. And a littlebit cheaper...

They are a good unit Will. If you get one, I wouldn't expect any dramas with it.

Will,
They use the same compressor as the Waeco fridges. Just be aware they have a bigger foot print as they are a 'retro-fit' compressor on to the side of the ice box. Good unit though, should be trouble free.

Pretty much everyone bar engel and a reefer model (i think) use some kind of danfoss compressor

True Wilbur.

Will - make sure you have dual batteries with any 12v compressor fridge, you will need it!

Around $1100 for the 95 and around $900 for the 55.
