My $500 - $600 Adler-Barbour refer' cooled (8.5 cu. ft.) about 10 times the volume of this $400 Coleman (0.8 Cu. Ft.), and was running trouble-free (and service/repair free) after 10 years of live-aboard use.

On behalf the of all (if any others) the retards amongst us, let me say that we're pleased that you're pleased with you refrigeration choice.
We're much less pleased with your disrespectful characterization of those with differing opinions, making different choices.
