Bushman Original SC35-52

Have both an Engel and the Bushman, the bushman seems to use a lot less power than the other, flexible with its different size lids, it goes with me at harvest time, in the camper trailer, or Ute, will be using it this June July out on the Canning. Holds it temp really good, use it a lot as a freezer down to -18.

This is our 2nd Bushman, having purchased the first unit in 2007. Our fridge has been with us for extended periods, in extreme heat conditions, and on some of the roughest and remote roads in Australia and always performed to our needs. It’s refreshing to ring a company and be able to speak to a person who bends over backwards to help with any questions or assistance. The fridges just keep on keeping on.

Hi Ive got bushman fridge and its been amazing tell recently it start for few seconds and its stop it melts the power plug and I just replace it with another one and still not working its got power in the control panel but its not cooling

Just done a weeks trip to SA the fridge is plugged into an ArkPak 730P with a 130ah battery which is connected to the cig. lighter socket in the rear of the Jeep. Runs perfectly and very efficient. Fridge was mainly used for drinks and lunch when traveling from place to place as well as picking up supplies for the caravan. Very happy with the fridge and would recommend it.

Have had the bushman for 4 months. It sits in the ute canopy everyday to keep work lunches cold in the 35l configuration. Have also been away on two trips where we used it in the 52l configuration. I can not fault the fridge. It is very efficient on power and very quite. Love that you can just set to the temperature you want and it will actually keep within two degrees of that number, and you can see what temperature the fridge actually is inside. The multi level temperatures zones work really well for keeping food frozen and cold at the same time. I would not hesitate to recommend this fridge to anyone.

We have just finished a big 4 week trip through outback NSW, QLD and SA covering many of the main tracks such as the Strzelecki, Oodnadatta and Birdsville plus many many other outback dirt roads. Our Bushman sits in the back of the ute and keeps things cold. It just works. It uses very little power, we have a 130ah battery in the back of the ute with a DCDC charger and only a few times in the four weeks did we bother to hook up some 120w solar panels to it. I highly recommend this fridge. It's so good that we are gong to oon replace the 3 way fridge in our offroad caravan with a Bushman upright compressor fridge. Do yourself a favour and buy one of these.

Just finished a 3 week Simpson Dessert trip and the fridge worked perfect. For the 2 of us it held all our food for the 3 weeks with no need for a second fridge or freezer. In 35 mode it is perfect for a weekend away and the 52 for longer trips. We have a dc to dc charger with a solar input and 100 watt panel on the roof and have stayed in 1 spot for 4 days and had no problems with the power draw ( only run the fridge and 1 led light strip)
We are very happy with this fridge and would not hesitate to recommend it anyone looking for a fridge/freezer.

We've only used our fridge a couple of times so far, but it used minimal power and kept our food and drinks cold. It is robustly constructed and the included cover keeps it looking new. Took it camping and kept it in the back of our Pajero Sport.

Fantastic customer service from Adam. Sorted my problem out straight away. Would recommend the Bushman fridge to everyone. Great product and efficient customer service. Thanks again Adam for helping me out.

The guys from Bushmans have clearly thought this product through because it offers features that simply make sense for people that use a fridge in the back of a ute all of the time.

i have an older sc32 model. it will get to set temp eventually , but cycles in and out every minute or so when initially turned on. shouldnt it run continously until set temp reached ? thanks for any help

Most of the reviews i've read here are the same. Pricey but awesome. I cant fault this fridge. I've had it for over a year now, it has performed wonderfully. Our recent trip to Fraser really made me see how rugged and reliable the construction is. The tracks were chewed out, really rough , the bushman handled it all, and still delivered a cold beer at the end of the trip. Love the different sizing options and the baskets, really well thought out. My only (1st world problem) is a light in the fridge when you open it. Thanks Bushman, great product, great fridge

Good design, rugged and performs well, use it in a saltwater environment so we will see how that goes.
Power consumption seems to be very frugal.

Multilevel cold zones is good

We researched a lot before settling on our Bushman fridge. We are more than happy with it and really like to idea of being able to adjust the fridge size to our camping needs. We have had it for 6 mths now and used it several times camping without a problem. We found a crack in one of the new baskets and let Bushman know and were sent a replacement straight away - great service.

This is my third bushman. None have failed and the oldest is 18 years. Amazing unit. These units may not have every feature but I have one in my truck, work van and caravan and they don’t miss a beat. I have used in temps upward of 42 degrees, beer is still cold. 10 out of 10.

We have used our new fridge, while camping, on a number of occasions now, both with 240 v connection and solar panel/battery 12v connection. We are very happy with it. The ability to upsize or downsize according to how long you are away is great. It runs very efficiently, and in summer over a warm but cloudy week where we had no access to power other than the solar panels we had no trouble with the fridge running the battery down. It also continued to keep the things at the bottom frozen or very cold. Buying from a local company that has great reviews about service was also something that gave me peace of mind. We couldn't be happier.

I have used a Bushman Fridge for 10 years without one ounce of problem. Its been used in a Camper Trailer across the Kimberley in it's 52 L configuration,Freezing at the bottom and cool at the top. Never went without a cold beer or lost any food.I have used it lately in the back of my 4WD in the 45L config.Keeps the steak frozen and the wife's wine cold. I'd recommend this simple to operate reliable fridge to anyone.
