My Vote is for Engel too. I had one for 18years that I bought second hand from father in law who had it for 12 years and he bought it second hand. I sold it working strong as ever to upgrade to a 40 litre. Had that now for 8 years. Did not have a problem with either of them living in the Northern Territory - going on many safari
treks and even through Arnhem land.
Last year we bought a camper that came with 2 waeco fridges. In the first 12 months both broke down (one twice) and had to have all sorts of parts replaced. Thermistor, main motherboard, internal fuse.
I like the internal light on the Waeco and the little section for small items but find it hard to see how the internal 40lt size is the same as my Engel 40lt. The waeco just doesn't look as big.
The Engel looks, feels, more robust than the Waeco. From my experience the Engel is tougher.
