Royal 3 Way Coolbox

First impressions the unit looks pleasing, tested out of the box on all modes of supply. Doing a home trial before being able to camp. Keeps contents cool. Wanted this to expand our flexibility on camping sites as 240v pitches are at a premium this year by the looks. Leisure Shop Direct very helpful with the order. Looking forward to getting out and using it now.

Good Fridge - More In-depth Instructions Required

Very good fridge - once i got it up and running on gas. After trying to ignite the gas for over half an hour i initially gave up. If my dad hadnt been with us i would have returned it as faulty. But it turns out the regulator hose i was using was too long and insufficient gas was reaching the igniter. Once the hose had been cut down to approx 70cm length, the fridge fired up and comfortably kept food cold for the 2 weeks that it was in use.
First Class Fridge, Works Well On All Three Power Options.

Very pleased with this fridge, I've been using it at home on mains as an overflow when the fridge in the he house is full. I really bought it for when we travel and in our camping field. It functions very well on all three, gas, mains electric and 12 volt electric. Lots of space inside.
This Appliance Is Totally Silent And Unobtrusive.

I like that it has clean uncomplicated lines as far as the casing is concerned. It is totally silent in operation and is easy to clean inside. It is practical from the point of view in being able to be operated on mains electricity, in a vehicle on a 12v
set up and finally on bottle gas in a caravan or camper environment.
It Works Well Would Recommend

I usually have the 12 Volt Electric 24 Litre Large Cool Boxes and they soon wear out, this is an 42L Royal 3-way Absorption Camping Caravan Fridge/Cool box/Cooler 12V/230V/Gas. Using The ammonia gas I have used it on both 230V and gas and can say it is very efficient we go camping in Europe and you need a good cool box, I put in a temperature gauge to keep a check on the temperature and this cooler works well, last used two weeks ago at our BBQ.
The Perfect Answer

Fabulous fridge. Does exactly what the fridge in our brand new caravan can’t - keep the beer cold in France. This is the second time I have purchased this fridge. Sold the first one when we purchased a caravan with a huge fridge/freezer - however the temperature in France proves too much for it. This fridge copes with ease.

Had one of these before they are brilliant used alot on camping and then as an extra fridge in a caravan awning, plus at home for holding the Christmas drinks. We had the last one for well over 15years hope this one last just as long.

This arrived really quickly and works a treat. I am yet to see it work well on the road or in the boot of the car but anyway that goes to be seen.

I have owned a Royal fridge for 4 years now and it has worked without fail, even after being in storage for nearly 2 years the fridge works great. As with ALL absorption fridges you must have a LEVEL platform for it to operate correctly, this is due to the way the fridge works as it uses liquid ammonia to cool the system down, so if the fridge is not level the ammonia cannont travel through its cooling cycle correctly.
The other review is unfair and does not reflect the operation of the fridge, when running on GAS you will get a smell and personally you should not operate this fridge in a tent due to the gas burning all the time. You must have it in a WELL ventilated area if running it on GAS THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT due to potential carbon monoxide poisoning. If I do run the fridge on gas I have a small utility tent which I put the fridge in (the tent is well ventilated at the top and has a mesh window that allows a free flow of air inside.
I was initially concerned about how much gas this fridge uses and thought that iI might run out of gas but I checked the stats. The fridge consumes gas at about 15 grams per hour so a 5kg gas bottle will last at least 330 Hours! so that's a lot of days camping.
I've had it in 30c temperatures and it cools the items to a nice chilly 5-7c (I have a thermometer inside the fridge) it can even make ice cubes and comes with a little ice cube tray.
The 240v operation works flawlessly as does the 12v but please remember if you are running off your car battery this fridge will run it down within a few hours (if you leave it on the 12v without running the car engine) 12v is ideal if you are travelling to the campsite to keep the fridge cool, I normally run the fridge on the mains the night before travelling then I use the car's 12v to keep the fridge cool and then its on gas when I get to the campsite. Remember the frige will work better if you have some items in the fridge )I normally put some food and milk in the fridge
