Finally the control panel is on the opposite end to the power inlet. Those handles had better not rattle.

Yeah I'll say, having the control panel at the back is very frustrating especially when your car is over full!   I had a bit of a play with the handles, I dont think they will rattle, they're spring loaded to return to the compact position.

no cfx 80's only goes up to the 65 glad our 80 is still going strong. But in saying that they look great.

I'm not sure they have left enough air vent space for heat removal. Looking at mine they have a bit more air flow area. Are the slits in the back actually open - hard to tell.

Look good though and for all those that have had issues with the hinges, that should be a better option.

Nice to see them responding to the competition. The new design addresses most of the reasons why we chose an ARB fridge over a Waeco (flush condenser plate, drain plug, sensible controls, etc). Not sure I'm happy with the lack of a danfoss compressor, but hopefully the know what they're doing.

As D4D says, I'm wary of the handles. A fixed handle can't rattle. The advantage of these I guess is that they don't take up any space when down.

Interesting to see how they go!
