FRIDGE CHOICE
(Preview)
Hi All, we need to get a new fridge for van and and was wondering if any of you out there have the Waeco Coolmatic installed, they seem to be a big difference in price, is this just because they do not work on gas or it is an inferior product, would really appreciate your feedback. Pauline
