We have a Norcold basement freezer/refrig that has been stored in our garage for a long time. We are going to put power to it to see if it still works. If it works we will sell it cheap if someone can pick it up in Madeira Beach, Fl.

That's exactly what I need, and I'll be in the area the beginning of July.

I personally like the Dometic models, but there are many out of Australia/Other that we saw the past few years at Overland Expo. SnoMaster, National Luna etc.

If you want a more permanent solution Isotherm makes a few models. We have an Isotherm fridge using a very efficient Secop. compressor in our Campervan, it's expensive but works great.

Happy reading

The oem Norcold trek ll chest freezer appears to exactly the same box as the Engel mt80.

Which is good.  Uses a Swing  style ultra efficient compressor instead of whatever the norcold had,  we turn on our norcold every time we are in the coach.  It's power consumption in a summer test was less per day than my 15 amp max 370 watt solars  output. 60-70? Amphours used per 24 hours.

The norcold seems to have very high cooling capabilities. 

Used as a refer it's set very low on its thermostat.  Nice machine.  Handy outside on a sideways slide out.
