Ours is a Norcold. Stays plugged in or on propane constantly. Almost 3 years, n issues. Wife uses it for overflow from house and it is opened frequently. When working outside is quicker to pull drinks from RV than go in house. I do keep frozen water bottles in base of freezer and use a fan inside fridge area. I have only stopped it once for defrosting.
Use it or lose it applies in this situation.
