lots of people say they would not have a compressor fridge as they are noisy.
Now the people who actually DO have them don't report any disturbance (and I don't think that is 'buyers regret' kicking in and pretending).
Of the ones I have had,
The 12V Waeco Coolbox was silent.
The 12V Waeco CRX-50 was silent, but I did used to feel a slight 'kick' around 5AM or so in bed when the compressor came on. It was not noise, but the jolt of the compressor transmitting through the bench seat/bed. Could have eliminated that if I could be bothered, but wasn't worth it.
The 240V Inventor Fridge was totally silent. The only way I knew it was running was to open the door and see if the light came on (the Fridge woke up the
Inverter to run the compressor when needed, so when compressor off, light stayed off). I think everyone who has bought the Inventor Fridges for their campers have been happy with them.
My current 240V LEC Fridge/Freezer that replaced the Thetford 3-way is also totally silent and again I open the door if I want to check if it is running or not (as Fridge temp dictates if fridge gets power to run).
However .... I have a new Hoover Fridge-Freezer in the house and THAT, when running, makes some unusual sounds. It is in the kitchen so doesn't greatly matter, but I could imagine that unit might be annoying in a Motorhome?
