Looking to use it as a freezer only.
I have had good experiences with the seller, so that is not a problem.

Can you give us a rundown on the fridge with some more pics and a few tests after it turns up. Bloody good price.

It does seem to be an exceptional bargain. However, time will tell. I will report on the product when in my possession.

We've had one for approx. 12 months and it has been used as a freezer in our camper for most trips and at home as a bar fridge when not on the road. I leave it set on -5 degrees for the beer and it has been great. From memory we paid $475.00 for it last year. The brand name on ours is Evacool but its exactly the same as he OP has shown. We have just got back from the Vic high country last week and on arrival at home found it sitting on -13 Degrees. Had it set on -5 but for some reason it went down to -13 and I lost 1 stubby out of 5. Not bad as the other 4 were still intact. Since then the fridge has not done it again so must have just had a hiccup from some rough travelling or something. I'd recommend it as a good cheap fridge/freezer for the price.
Cheers

We ordered a 60L techniice fridge. I was watching eBay for a while as they have a shop on there.
We ended up getting ours for only $440. It should turn up tomorrow.
I checked all the reviews I could find on it and so far so good
Time will tell I guess, but considering what I paid I'm happy so far.

Love the fridge, but it doesn't fit in my camper.
It is actually about 13mm taller than the measurements that were advertised which has stuffed me lol.
Ahh well, now I have to work out if I'm going to sell the camper or the fridge haha.

My 45L arrived yesterday. Just threw a few beers in to make sure it ran ok. It's so quiet I can't hear it running. I will have to wait to go camping to do some tests on power consumption etc but so far so good. For what I need and waht I paid for it, I'm happy!
