2nd AC Opinions

[jsk]

Which should I consider - Dometic or Coleman. It will be a 13.5. Give the good and bad. I have been told that the Coleman is better and it is cheaper and the Dometic costs more because of the name. Which is the better quality unit? Thanks

I have had good luck with both brands.

I've actually found that the Coleman costs more than the Dometic. I bought a Dometic 13.5 for my second A/C because it matched the 15k stock unit. Paid around $450 for it.

Adventurerv.net If you're lucky like I was, you can get it when they have a special on and save on shipping. They also have scratch and dent models. Usually a dented top. Mine was delivered with a small sent on a corner, called them up and they had me a replacement top within a couple days. Great service!

I have 2 ACs in my 2012 V-Cross 275 fiver, both Dometic, one 15,000 and the other 13,500. It is my understanding that they are made in the USA and it is a US company and I have been told that the Coleman is made overseas. Not 100% sure, but I try to buy American made products when I am able.
