Amazon says mine will be here Thursday............they're usually off by a day

 

Thanks Camper, I've been looking into them and had almost decided to get the Engel mt45, $200 off is a good decision maker

I got mine yesterday, off by a day in the opposite direction of normal.

 

I immediately unpacked it and plugged it into 110V, after 2 hrs it was down  to 0degrees. WOW, the moise from it is a fairly low frequency and not very loud.

 

I then moved my truck close er to my door and moved it to the camper, I will be redoing some of my custom shelving because its a bit taller than the cooler i use.

 

I set the temp control to about 1 and will check it and its power usage over time to see how it does.

Hi there thisoldcamper
We really like ours, I used their mounting bracket, if you do put a safety strap as ours popped out on dirt roads.

Question for owners of the Engel MR040F-U1:

I have been looking for a portable refrigerator to put behind the center console of my clubcab pickup. I had previously narrowed my choice down to the Norcold NRF30 based on size, weight and capacity but would appreciate your thoughts on using this model Engel in my application. I ask because the performance reviews of the Norcold are not as good as the Engel or Dometic refrigerators.

I am still thinking it would be too heavy to easily lift in and out of the truck cab when even partially full of food and beverages (it is a 2 door truck so I have to lift over the front seats and center console).

I do prefer the units like this Engel and the Norcold that open in the width direction instead of the length, else I would probably go with one of the Dometic models like the CFX28.

Regards,
Craig
