Look at the specifications for a Samsung, RF197ACRS to see if it will fit. It is 24 1/4 inches deep which is counter depth for some motorhomes.

you have a single door- and want to go side by side. this will entail some major cabinet mods. I would go with the 10 cf Whirlpool from Lowes. Around 400 bucks- and the last 5 coaches I have had, that's the route I took.

We had a single door Dometic and replaced it with a 12 cf Frigidaire - $491.00. It was an almost perfect fit. Agree that you'll have to do a lot of mods to fit a side-by-side.

Since we never dry camp, I did not have any inverters.

This is the link to see the specs for the Samsung refrigerator. It is 18 cu ft, so it is small than you might think.
