Question: Can you fit a 100 Quart Freezer in the Basement of a Ventana 3412?

[Ventana]

Answer: Yes, with about a 1/4 inch to spare (height). It sits on a Morryde 200% extension freezer tray. We lead RV caravan trips, which is why we need the extra freezer space.

I put a Dometic CF-80 in mine too. It's great to have, yeah, that's one of the biggest storage compartments and it is removable but it's nice to have for sure.

MOD - Just bought a Dometic CF 80 cooler

I admittedly got jealous of @ARD cooler in her front basement compartment of her DSDP 4369 and as my freezer is packed to the brim on my long trip I decided to look into getting one myself. With some reorganization and adding shelves in my 4037 I realized I could make this happen and with Alaska...

That's exactly what I'm thinking about for my 4369. Which morryde model (or dimensions) of the 200% fit? I was looking at another brand tray (what you have Neil) and it didn't look like it would fit the 95l dual compartment, which is what we want. We currently have a Camco (emergency pickup when fridge appeared to be going out on a trip), but plan to retire camco to S&B and car rides to Whole foods, and put a Dometic in the basement.

Take a look at reviews of whatever cooler you're going to buy. I considered the dual compartment one but the failure rate was high and reviews were terrible so I decided to go with what Newmar was using across the board which at that time with the CF-80. I'm sure things are much better now several years later.

I decided a single compartment freezer made more sense than a dual zone. The CFX 100 fit the requirements perfectly. Expensive but then most quality products are.
