Time for a new fridge.

[Tony V]

The electrolux 3 way in my AS Amethyst is now over 20 years old and is begining to show it's age, so I want to replace with a compressor fridge, preferably one that will just slot in and run off the battery+ solar panel together with 240v on EHU. Since ther are several other largish upgrades I want to undertake this year I want a fridge that is'nt going to break the bank- so no suggestions for +£1k super freezers thank you. I guess my budget will be around the £500 mark and I'm sure I will get many and varied suggestions from you good people- so fire away and give us your recommendations please.

When you say showing it’s age do you mean broken or just tatty etc

Just my opinion but if not broken I would keep it as I have been told by a few people the fridges of that era were so much better built than the later ones.

do you have enough solar and batteries to run a compressor fridge?

Too tall. It needs to slot in to the under-counter slot.

It's tatty, not working at all on gas. never gets down to a decent temp, and takes up a lot of room for what it does.

I will probably add another solar panel, which was on the cards anyway.

If a slide in is'nt forthcoming I may just take it out, flog it for spares and get one of those 'portable' compressor coolers and make some extra storage.

wondered about this one. needs an extra transformer.
