Engel MR40 Fridge/Freezer

Tired of desperately trying to light your Westy refrigerator only to be disappointed with its cooling capabilities? Do you have a Weekender or 7-Passenger and are tired of dealing with ice for your cooler and soggy food? GoWesty has a solution: Engel® electric fridge/freezers. These units feature super-low power consumption, and are designed to maintain a steady interior temperature regardless of outside temperature fluctuations. They run on 12-volt and 110-volt power and are 100% CFC/HCFC free. Finally, reliable refrigeration for all your road trips with plenty of room for all your food and drinks! This wireless thermometer is a great addition!

The Engel MR40 is based on the tried and true MT45 model, but features a more weather-resistant all-plastic exterior. The lid is also reversible, which means easy access from either side. It features a storage tray under the lid for spare cords and/or fuses, and the corners are protected with nice large rubber bumpers. The guts of the Engel MR40 are typical of all the other Engel refrigerator/freezers. Our tests over the last several years have shown that it is 100% as reliable and durable as all of the other legendarily venerable Engel models, its closest sibling being the MT45.

Should I get the MR40 or the MT45? you ask. To help you decide, the MR40 differs from the MT45 in these ways:
• It is slightly smaller outside: 19H x 25L x 14.4D versus 20H x 25.5L x 14.3D
• It is slightly smaller on the inside: 40 quarts instead of 43-quart capacity
• The body and lid are made of plastic instead of aluminum
• 4 pounds lighter
• Will not ding, dent, or corrode
• Is not as quite as space-efficient (6.6% smaller on the outside, but 7.5% smaller on • The lid is hinged so it opens length-wise, instead of at one end like the MT45, and is reversible. Some folks find this lid orientation more convenient when placed on the floor behind the passenger seat.
• Features a nifty storage tray under the lid for spare cords and/or fuses, and the corners are protected with nice large rubber bumpers.
