Peer,

I was aware of the prices for appliances in Europe as they sell the same ones Downunder because we're 240 VAC / 50 Hz.

The roof A/C's (two 13,500 BTU Dometic units) are three years old, the fridge is older but works perfectly.

The roof A/C you've listed is only 7500 BTU and it is highly unlikely that it would keep a GMC cool down in southern Spain or
Portugal during the summer months.

The fridge is also a smaller model than what is in Double Trouble.

Then there's the microwave, convertor, inverter, coffee machine, crock pot, small toaster oven, sandwich press, electric toothbrush,
and other odds and sods.

Regards,

I wonder if the expense for the A/C and fridge replacement is that big.
It might be, if you've already installed new of both in it in the US. If
the 110V A/C and fridge are 40 y/o, installing new 220V equipment might
not be that big of a deal.

Just checked prices. oops.
2kEUR for the A/C http://www.dometic.de/product/dometic-freshjet-2200/
1kEUR for a fridge http://www.dometic.de/product/dometic-rm-8400/

I might withdraw my idea...
