Dual zone and great value for money
I bought this fridge to look after drinks while caravaning around Darwin, my old 3-way fridge doesn't handle the tropics very well. We normally stay at powered caravan sites so power consumption was only a minor consideration but I did still purchase the cover.
Setting 4 degrees for fridge and -10 for freezer it achieved the aim of holding beer and cold water in one side and ice (large block and smaller ice trays) in the other. This was on 240v outside in the shade with 35 degrees and high humidity in December.
With a recent cyclone threat I...Read more
tested the fridge to see how it would go maintaining temperature under harsh conditions. I got the fridge steady at 4 and -10 with drinks etc as above. I then turned the fridge off in the caravan at 11am for 8 hours at about 31 degrees to simulate power being off during the cyclone. I turned the fridge back on at 7pm using the the caravan's 12v system with 2 x 120ah batteries. The fridge stopped drawing power once the batteries got to about 50% after 40 hours. I assume the insulation isn't as robust as premium brands but the fridge is light, dual zone and only costs $450. It keeps its temperature in the tropics but probably draws a bit of power to maintain it. It uses between 4 and 6 amps when the compressor is going. The first one I had developed an issue after a few days and RTM swapped it out for me. My replacement has been going steadily on 12 and 240v for 5 weeks now in the both on trips and in the caravan at home in Darwin.Purchased in December 2021 at Baby Department for $450.00.

Good value
Two weeks in 40+ degree outside temperatures locked in car it maintained -10 freezer 3 degree fridge temp! I have optional insulation bag. Perfect fridge for emergencies, camping not heavy 4x4 due to not water proof and build.
The touchscreen was a bit annoying as it’s easily touched when accessing the unit but works well.
For the price it’s extremely good value especially for a duel zone and has a 3 year REPLACEMENT warranty which is equivalent to or better than others out there!
Time will only tell how this fridge holds up but so far exceeds expectations!
