Looking at getting one for a Christmas present to myself and looked at the measurements of them to see which will fit.

Looking at a few and would love to get a dual zone but the only one I can find that I think will fit is the Techni Ice 60L Dual Zone.
71.5L X 45.5W X 52.5Wcms

Any one using one on a slide in a JKU?

Or any others I should look at?

Techni is 6 year warranty at present and I have a few of their eskies and thought they are pretty good for the value.

I have had pretty good experiences with techni ice but saying that have never needed to claim warranty. They always have stuff on special, be patient and you won't have to pay full price. 6 year warranty is very good. I have a 40 litre Engel and I must say it really is too small. I would encourage you to avoid anything smaller than at least 50 litres even if it's only for a couple of people and weekend trips.
Fridges are a personal choice. I would avoid Engel as personally I don't like the lack for a proper thermostat, they are noisy and I think over priced.

I run a 95l evakool fridge freezer on top of my drawer system. Is perfect for us as most other stuff goes in drawers or camper trailer. There is a pic or two in build thread link below.

Wow 95l is huge! Is that on a drop slide or something?

Nah not on a drop slide. I built my drawers to suit the fridge, and it does have a roll out too draw slide that allows the fridge to be pulled out of the car ipal most it's entirety. I got rid of the rear wiper motor and cover to open the fridge a little more. It's high, but I have a fold up step that sits in the draw for when I need to reach that last beer at the bottom.

Waeco CFX-50 in my JKUR and its brilliant. The new CFX range have better insulation and better compressors than the older CF range. If you can wait until Boxing Day and they'll be on special at Rays Outdoors.
