When (not if) the time comes to replace one, or both, of the fridges on my boat I’m not going to omit Norcold from the list of possible replacements. The Norcold on my 1987 boat was original and still going strong when I sold that boat in 2016. While we primarily use the freezer portion for ice cube trays, the few times we put ice cream or other items that need to be frozen in it, the Norcold in the salon does the job. That being said, they’re both original from 2002. They get me thinking about having two time bombs. AlĬlick to expand.As the owner of a 2002 boat with two original Norcolds on it I always get nervous when I read these threads. I'll be glad to answer any additional install questions if you need anymore help. I've been using it for over 2 months now and it's great. The price also was a deciding factor, I paid $1,532 for this one and the Novacool and Isotherm if I remember correctly were closer to $2K. I also wanted a bigger capacity refrigerator and I think this one is about 2 cubic feet bigger than the Nevercold LOL. No noise running and used way less battery when anchored out. A friend of mine put a Vitrifrigo in a few years back and his experience was great. I made my decision o the Vitrifrigo for a couple of reasons. I looked at the Novacool, Isotherm and the Vitrifrigo for a replacement. It's difficult to explain but you will put the new Vitrifrigo frig through the doorway on it's side above the lip on the cabinet and it will almost be vertical to go through the doorway. Cherwig, You do know that you have to take the outer door shroud off to get the sliding doors out? You don't have to remove any cabinetry to get the frigs in and out.
