another vote to go for it. Our side door fridge died and i bought a top load edgestar. Dying to get a side door one again. I also want the tf130. Are you getting it direct from Truckfridge?

I was planning on it, but their shipping is killer. Might try and shop around, but doubt i find anything.

Yeah I’ve been looking for a while and can’t find anything better than direct.

Never had an issue with my Norcold 4cf opening due to rough terrain.

Bemerritt, I've had 3 or 4 TF130's now and never had one come open. Thay are huge inside and not huge outside. It's an impressive trick of physics. They are the best value I've ever found but I do save the shipping by picking them up since I'm only a few hours away from them.

The only complaint I can think of is that they freezer section is pretty small.

Well, it's ordered. Thanks for the reassurance everyone.

Side Note - Interested in Purchasing a dual zone top loading fridge if anyone has one laying around.

I had an Engel top load for years and went to an Engel front load during my build out. The Engel has a latch that holds it closed so it has never opened on its own, but, there's been a few times things have rolled out when I opened it and surprised me. Never happened on the top load of course. I wouldn't go back to the top load though. Organization and ease of accessing everything is superior in a front load, small items in door, etc. Not to mention the integration into cabinetry.
