Another consideration for whether to replace with the same LP/110 RV refrigerator or go with a "cheaper apartment refrigerator" is resale value. Doing the conversion, buying an inverter, hooking up/wiring the new system may save a few bucks at the time, but you'd also need to consider resale. By not having the "dry camping option" you'll eliminate some of the potential purchasers and by having a "home conversion" trade in value may be decreased even if you trade it in at a dealership.

There is a "calling" for home refrigerators in larger "live in" or "full timing" RV's, but not so much with "camping trailers" where people want the versatility to be "off the grid" for a weekend without doing anything "extraordinary" to their trailer.
