Post by: LuckyDog on September 01, 2014, 08:40:51 AM

Hi Swaggers, i am looking to buy an Engel MR40F as a present for someone and was wondering if anyone out there has one and whether they are reliable ?

I’ve had one for a couple of years now and it is a brilliant fridge, they have the same internals as there metal brothers. I got mine form BCF at the price in the link you have put up and for my way of thinking $699 for an Engel product is bloody good buying :cheers:

ok Cool Axl, i have the older Steel bodied ones and have no problem with them and just thought i'd ask in here to be sure of the plastic style before purchasing.

I am pretty sure Speewa has a couple of these and he tests his fridges out pretty hard with the restocking of green cans, and some food at times  >:D
