Overview
The Smad SD60 is a 2.1 cubic foot, freezerless RV refrigerator that runs on LPG propane, 110V household power, or 12V DC, built for motorhomes, campervans, and semi-truck sleeper cabs.
- 2.1 cu ft freezerless capacity
- 3-way power: LPG, 110V, 12V DC
- Cools to a 32-50 F range
- 0 dB rated absorption cooling, no compressor
Who it's for
Good for off-grid setups, small campers, or a compact office fridge where silent operation matters more than large capacity. Not for anyone wanting a freezer compartment, since this model is fridge-only.
Pros and cons
- Runs on propane, 110V, or 12V for true off-grid use
- Silent absorption cooling with no compressor noise
- Reversible door for tight installation spaces
- Analog temperature dial can overcool without adjustment
- Included instructions are sparse for the 110V and gas setup
Performance notes
The absorption system cools from 32 to 50 F and runs silently with no compressor. The reversible door and 2.1 cubic foot capacity fit compact spaces, with a drawer that includes two frames to hold items in place while traveling.
