Vitrifrigo SLIM250 RV Refrigerator and Freezer - 8.8 cu ft - Gray

Video Transcript for Review of Vitrifrigo RV Refrigerators - Full Fridge - VT74RR

Hi, everyone. Steve here with etrailer. Let's take a look together at the Vitrifrigo SLIM250. This is an RV refrigerator and freezer combo. It holds 8.8 cubic foot of space and this one is in a nice gray fascia. Now we do offer this same exact size, same unit in a black fascia that's sold separately.

Item number VT64RR. Again, folks, we're looking at the gray version. This is gonna measure 61 inches tall from the floor to the top of the fridge. Keep in mind I have it on a little dolly. So again, we're measuring from the base there up to the very top of the front here, 61 inches tall.

Side to side, I got 23-7/16th inches wide looking at the front. And then if we spin this sideways and we include the very front, the back part of this tubing back here, that sticks out a little bit, I got 25-5/8th inches deep along the back. So again, that's including that back tubing. So come back from the front, this is obviously a refrigerator and freezer combo, as I mentioned. You got a front door that can open nice and easy, and then you got the bottom here, freezer.

I don't wanna pull it out with the overhead camera so you can kinda see just kinda how deep in there. It comes up to about this part of my forearm, so pretty deep. Then, of course, you have adjustable sliders here. You could put that in there to adjust. It's a very easy system.

And then opening it, you simply pull the handle. Now it's opening with ease. Of course, you're gonna get an owner's manual included. You have different shelving units here. You can change these heights. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven options as far as the heights, including that base. You can take these little dividers out. You can slide them side to side. So if you have different condiments and stuff you don't want rattling around while you're on the move, you could have that option as well. Of course, you have your different height grates inside your shelving, and you can move them around as well with these. And once you get it back in place, kinda snapped down and locked in place, again, so they're not falling around when you're driving. So I've got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven of those different heights. Then you have glass right here on the bottom with two pullout little compartments, and they're not too bad sizewise either. You can fit a lot of different vegetables, and those kind of fresh items in there. Now this is again the SLIM250. You've got a bunch of different options here as far as your temperature control. You got your on-off button, you've got night mode, turbo mode for turbo cooling, and then you got your freezer and fridge. You can do those simultaneously, or at the same time, or individually rather. And then you have a fridge freeze mode where you can click that button to swap depending on which one you want to change. Now along the backside here, they use what's called their next-gen compressor, and it's been engineered to be very efficient and lightweight for the RV and overland use. This whole unit is actually CI-BUS ready as well. So it fits a lot of different regulations worldwide as far as being able to use it in different locations and areas. It features an all-in-one temperature control, allowing the lower drawer to function as a fridge or freezer as needed. So I like that feature because maybe I don't have a lot of frozen foods, but I need some more fridge space. Now I can change that and it functions as a fridge as well. You're gonna have your standard electronic thermostat, and you're gonna have multifunction control, and integrated LED lightings inside. Now this works on 12 or 24 volts of DC current. When it comes off of the crate that it ships on, it's about 130 pounds. So I do recommend highly you get a friend to help assist you with the install as far as putting it inside of your unit, and those kind of things. Now the vent position system is integrated into the handles here and that's gonna allow partial door opening during non-use. So maybe I wanna crack this open, you know, on the other fridges to let this vent out. This will do it with the handle and again, you can go through the instructions as far as seeing that a little better. It's kinda hard to see on the video screen just because of how kinda small it is, but you got those integrated vents and stuff in there. I do wanna try to push it a little closer, to see if we can get a better closeup of these controls. Now you can kinda see them a lot better as well. This also features a night operation mode, so it's gonna reduce noise level, and lower power consumption at night. I mentioned the turbo mode for rapid cooling. It does have a three-star freezer performance support storage, and you can do that all the way down to negative 18 degrees Celsius. Those integrated crisper bins I talked about earlier, those are 10-liter in size. And you also have a no frost airflow ventilation system designed to improve cooling consistency, and help with food preservation. And as I mentioned before, the CI-BUS ready design makes it compatible with modern caravan digital communication systems. That's a new thing that's been around for a couple years now and it's just a great option to have that integrated with here as well. Now, of course, like most fridges, you can reverse the door design. So if you wanted to open from the other side all the instructions, and you can have it hinge this side to open this way as well. And again, the front is a scratch-resistant gray front with a CHROMELOCK styling, so this is a great option for you. Again, folks, the Vitrifrigo SLIM250 in gray. Again, we carry this in black, sold separately. I'm Steven, thanks for watching. Have a great day.
