    Thanks. What ever work right :)

    I think it is a good investment not only for health but also for your pocket. I preferred non frozen food but everyone needs are different.

    A lot of people think that they need to buy a truck fridge but that not the case and they quit expensive and have very little storage room.

    To those installing a mini fridge remember that you need some sort of cushion on the bottom

    A mini fridge is a good option for those who like to have a freezer too. I don't want the freezer and all the residencial mini fridge that i saw where about the same price. This is not a residential one. It is a commercial one so it is wsy more heavy-duty and do have more space available than a mini fridge.

    I see this as an investment in my self. You may think different so I do respect your opinion

    I don't see what refrigerant is in it, I bring this up because if it's R290..that's propane. A lot of new commercial equipment is running it. I'd check the data plate and try to limit vibration of the fridge as much as possible, not alot of room in a sleeper.

    Looks nice I like it but that is the 1 concern I have.

    R600 is butane, so still flammable, I would probably atleast turn it to where you can see the compressor and give it a shake,see what moves and pad that to limit movement with small pieces of pipe insulation or something similar.

    Not trying to nit pick a nice job I just don't want anybody to go boom!
