Why you need a Thetford Compressor Fridge on your next road trip

One of the great joys (or challenges, depending on how you look at it) of caravan travel is dinner time. For some, the limitations of an Esky and a single burner make something really great, while others can crash and burn. If you’re in the ‘crash and burn’ camp, then Thetford Australia has just the product for you to step up your camp kitchen game: the T2175 Compressor Fridge.

Thetford T2175 Compressor Fridge

This is a fridge that feels truly luxurious. With 175 litres of space, you’re no longer limited by what you can jam around the ice in your Esky. At the bottom, you’ll find a freezer drawer, designed to save energy by keeping as much of the cold air inside as possible when you open it. (Think of the endless frozen camp dessert options!) It’s trendy, too. The black finish on the front wouldn’t look out of place in a designer home. The front touch screen looks great, but also gives you precise control over temperature and energy use.

And while we’re talking about design, this is pretty cool (pun entirely intended): it has been designed to house the compressor (the noisy bit) at the bottom, and has a unique ventilation system that keeps the noise down and the dust out.

But by far the biggest drawcard of this fridge is the security it gives to an uneasy camp chef. No more soggy veggies, or digging through ice to find the ingredient you really needed five minutes ago. Just open the door (or the drawer), and away you go.
