Need advice on new fridge purchase

Hi!

I need to purchase a new fridge to replace my dometic 2852 Americana. It needs a new cooling unit, but has been so neglected on the inside I'm going to just replace it. I need the new one to be the same size as the old one (approx (59"x23"x24"). Should I just get another 2852 or there any other models out there that are any better?

Thanks!!
Matt

If you were happy with the function of existing fridge I'd replace with same one, than again some people have been replacing with residential, because of recalls, which may be more work of fitting in space.
Check the RV Systems & Appliance link for more info.

Dometic provides a replacement chart that includes dimensions and suggestions for replacement. The 2852 is a current model, so that would be the easiest route.
