On our last trip the Dometic front loading washing machine played up (the machine is 9 years old) so we were wondering if anyone has encounted the same problem. The problem we have is that the washing machine would fill with water then stop and without starting to wash empty the water out. We have eliminated a few things by testing the different functions of the machine such as testing it on the spin cycle. The machine completed this cycle without any problem eliminating the motor and the pump. But I am sure there are lots of other things that can go wrong. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank to all who replied. We have decided to stick with Vitrifrigo. Graham

Half way into our latest adventure the 230l Vitrifrigo died (2007) leaving us to live out of a borrowed 40l Engel. So on the way home we stopped in at the Fridge Whisperer only to be told that the damage to the fridge was terminal. The sad thing about it is that the fridge had been working the best it had ever worked thanks to the good work that the Fridge Whisperer had done a year ago. Up until that time we were not happy with the performance of the fridge. The damage to the fridge was caused by the rough roads that we had been traveling on. So now we have a big decision to make; 1; replace the fridge with another 230l Vitrifrigo this is by far the easiest or, 2 replace it with a 215l Waeco this will require a fair amount of alterations to enable the fridge to fit into the existing opening. To help with this decision I am seeking some information on the effectiveness of the 215l Waeco and any problems people have encountered with this fridge. Also if anyone has had any experience with the new Vitrifrigo this is the one with the additional rack in the freezer. We have heard that the Waeco uses less power than the Vitrifrigo and that the fridge compartment is colder. Thank you Graham and Ann

hi Ash and Nell, We have only owned our van for 9 months however when we were looking around we always came back to the kedron. We have been more then happy with the van and we now believe that we have made the right decision. We have a 19ft CX. Graham and Ann

Thank you Mark & Bernadette for a great weekend. Ann and I had a great time and are looking forward to the next trip. Graham and Ann
