We had a look at those fridges. The RV range seem to have different internals to the rest of their range.  Also the warranty is shorter and seems to draw more power.

I ended up getting an Engel Eclipse instead.

Good value for 60l fridge at $699, anyone have one and that they can recommend them ?

Free bag with the 40 and 80L jobs too.

I've had one for a bit over 6 months. So far so good. Sitting in the back of the Nissan in Cairns all weekend at the athletics track on battery 3 weeks ago I got about 3 days on 120ah battery set at 1-2deg. Under the house best has been 100hrs straight. Camping I top up with solar anyway.
Only gripe so far was a light duty spade connector came off the 12v socket inside the fridge on bumpy roads. Clamped it tighter and no drama since.
No they are not metal Engel build quality, but good if you are on a budget. And Evakool are Qld-based and have good customer service (so maybe safer bet than ebay specials)
The evakool bloke said the RVs were built for BCF & co hence the cheaper build. Different compressor, (chinese copy of danfoss from memory) but met their quality standards & had very few problems to date.
Note one annoying thing isyou usually pay extra for the baskets.
