I need to replace the cooling unit in my boat.
The fridge has a volume of 170 liters (50 x 50 x 70 cm).
After reading some posts here in the forum I decided to go with a Dometic CU 94 combined with an VD14N.
I've been waiting for the compressor for five months now. Every time it's due for a delivery the date will be pushed out by another four weeks. I checked other shops and although they advertise the unit the reality is that they cannot deliver.
This is why I started checking whether the 84 would be an alternative. Unlike the 94 which is designed for a capacity of up to 400 liters, the 84 is designed for up to 250 liters.
Originally, I went with the 94 because I thought it would certainly be cold enough. Which is very likely true. But with the current situation I'm beginning to wonder if I should try and get the smaller version instead and combine it with a VD15. Does anyone of you have thoughts on this?
My goal is to have a cold fridge. And cold to me means not just cooler than the surrounding air but actually cold, as in maybe 6 to 10 degrees Celsius at the bottom.
if you are still searching for an cu94, SVB.de has one in stock. same with cu84
I am saure they are delivering to Greece. If not let me now, they could send it to me and I will send it to you in Greece.

Funny. Now they are indeed in stock. However, at €200 premium compared to what I paid.
But I consider getting the CU84 from SVB. Thanks!
Shipping wouldn't be the issue - it's going to go to Germany.
but i am sure they are deliver to Greece. give them a call, every time I do that i was helped very friendly. But pay attention giving the right address. I read about some problems ....give them an email after calling to confirm addresses
here you can get it with a discount....

give them also a call, also friendly people. They have repaired mine very fast. often they have peaces with more discount. damged packages.....or so
Why are you do adamant about Greece? Neither I nor my boat are there! 😂
Some update on this topic: I have successfully installed the CU84 and it's working like charm! Set to about 50% cooling level the fridge is now really cold.
I have also added 3cm of XPS plate to insulate the top of the cabinet where the compressor unit sits.
