The real problem with a frig that uses 120v is that they are extremely inefficient. Check out the marine guys, they have all kinds of ideas for refrigerators. I am considering a Danfoss 35D 12v compressor and using a cheap small frig. Throw away the orig compressor, add a lot of extra insulation around the box and hook up the Danfoss. It comes in a kit for the boaties. Check out http://www.e-zkold.com/conversion.htm#ek12a. Even better build a "box fig" with a top opening lid. Efficiency is the key.
