12 volt refridgerators

Just wondering if anyone has bitten the bullet and installed a real 12 volt compressor type fridge in a Scamp? I have owned several of the Thermoelectric machines over my  years of camping and they aren't any good for the temps I encounter. But something like the Engle or ARB units, while pricey may be the answer. I have a 100 watt solar panel on the roof, do mostly boondocking. seldom am anywhere close to ice from the store. Any personal experiences? thanks folks Philip. KG5JPG
