Hi there,

We're upgrading to a 3-way fridge this summer and been looking at the latest Dometic offering.  On our travels, we notice our local dealer stocks the Quest 45 litre 3-way, when priced against the Dometic is a least £200 cheaper and 4 litres larger!

My only concern is that it shows as being 'virtually noiseless'.  Does anyone know if this is the case?  The Dometic is a noiseless operation (RC1700 EGP) but I'd be interested in learning about the peformance of the Quest.

Thanks in advance - Marie 

Electrolux/Dometic have always used Abosorption Technology system of cooling which as you say is silent in operation, as explained here http://dometic.com/enuk/Europe/United-Kingdom/Absorption-Technology/. What you would need to establish is whether the alternative uses the same system. From this website here http://www.outdoorworld.co.uk/quest-45-litre-3-way-coolbox-p-3555.html it suggests the Quest does use the same technology. Perhaps Quest are just reluctant to say silent running?
