Another fridge purchase decision post.
Has anyone had an experience with buying a refurbished Dometic fridge from their online store? They're sold as used stock as they have been sent back to the manufacturer for whatever reason, scrubbed up, fixed and put into the refurb store. With only a 14 day warranty and Dometic's self proclaimed focus on customer satisfaction, I'm considering taking the chance being that there is around $300-$400 to be saved on a new unit.
I'm looking for something around 40l since it will be used mainly for weekend trips of just myself and some trips with the rest of the family totalling 4 people. I'm not running dual batteries which shouldn't be a problem as I usually travel each day either from camp to camp, or out to locations from a base camp.
My other consideration is the Ridge Ryder which are on special every other weekend at my local Supercheap Auto store.
You can probably guess my budget is around $600 as I can't justify spending double that for a fridge that will spending 70% of the year switched off in the shed.
