I have my trailer in having a bunch of work done, and they have determined that the cooling unit in the fridge is broken.  I don't think it's worth $700 or so to replace that tiny fridge.  Any thoughts on where to get an electric only that will fit in that spot?  Or a pre-built cabinet to fit there?

If I read your post correctly, you are saying that you don't care about a 12volt or propane features of a fridge and only want a 110v system.

If that is the case, I would just check with any of the appliance stores for a small under counter fridge.  Nothing is going to fit exactly the spot you have, So it is just a matter of finding something that is close in size.

Any cabinet shop should be able to build you a cabinet that will fit into the empty space if you just want storage.

I'm a dummy - so 12 volt would run it while it's on the battery power? 

 

I guess it's the propane part I don't really care about.  If we're camping without power, I'll manage with just a cooler.

 

If an electric only fridge won't fit, I'll just always manage with a cooler, lol.

 

It's so small, it's not really worth a lot to preserve the space as a fridge if it's going to cost hundreds of dollars.

Most RV fridges come in either 2 way or 3 way.  Meaning they will run on two or three sources of power.   110volt, 12 volt or propane.

I took my 3 way Norcold out, too. Put in a bigger all electric that I got for $75 off Craigslist, brand new still in the box. I did have to adjust the cabinet, but I think this will be a better solution for me.

That's what I'm thinking.  The Norcold is so tiny; it doesn't hold much at all.  If I'm going to have to spend some money, I'd rather have something more useful.
