Both are very good fridge/freezers. I went with the Waeco 50 because it offers a little more interior space per buck, has a smaller warmer cubby for lack of a better term that makes it dual zone, lid opens to the side (although there is a mod you can do to the Engel/ARB to convert to side opening) and I anchor it from the stout handles. I think the optional Engel/ARB cover is made from better material than the Waeco though.

I really have nothing to compare it with but I bought a 40 qt Weaco from the seconds dept a few years ago and it just works. I put it in the truck in June and didn't unplug it until November. It simply runs 24/7

I think the credit really belongs to Danfoss.

I like the steel exterior idea on my Engel. Both are very good products.
