Carol2c Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi, We are going to upgrade our Norcold 7 cubic foot refrigerator to a Norcold 12 cubic foot. Has anyone bought a new fridge lately? And where is the best place (for price and service) to buy a new RV fridge??? Thank you in anticipation for your response(s) Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeFulltimers Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Have you considered upgrading to a residential reefer instead? Many manufacturers are offering the option now and many owners are installing them now when their junk RV reefers fail. I know that's what I will do when the time comes for it!

Kirk W Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 If you are planning to install it yourself then I'd start by doing some shopping on Amazon and other internet sources first. As long as it comes with a full warranty you will probably do better with one of the internet suppliers. A search on Google or your favorite search engine might also be a good place to look and price compare. If you shop this way, make sure that you also include any shipping costs into the price. Since you are replacing the refrigerator, I suggest that you also consider installing a safety device from ARPrv as well, which both Mark Nemeth and I use strongly recommend.

Mariner Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 When I finally gave up on our Dometic, I contacted my extended warranty co. and told them I wanted a residential. They had no problem with it, and paid for the fridge and entire installation, less of course the $100 ded.

BasicRV Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Amazon is usually the easiest way. Free shipping on most items if it is fulfilled by them.

Carol2c Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Hello Fulltimers51, I am interested in the Norcold 1200 you are switching out to domestic fridge. How old is it? Why are you switching to a domestic fridge? When are you planning to switch it out? When are you going to be in Rockport TX? Regards Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Joyce Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 The best is to find it locally, then you will know when it will arrive. I ordered from applianceconnection.com, who said it was in stock, but it really was not. Took over a month to arrive and with lousy tracking of the shipment. They were the best price. 2004 40' Newmar Dutch Star DP towing an AWD 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid, Fulltimer July 2003 to October 2018, Parttimer now.

Carol2c Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Hello Fulltimer51, What colour/finish is it? How much are you looking for it? Regards Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulltimer51 Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Honey Cherry wood door panels. New ones cost around $3500. Plus the wood panels, tax etc. I would be happy with $1500. Check your PMs. George2011 F350 6.7PSD CC 4X4 DRW Lariate2015 Mobile Suites 41 RSSB4 5th Wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
