After reading a lot of positive reviews on the bushman fridges I decided to replace my old struggling 90lt 3 way in my Jayco Swan, and with minor modification to the camper I got the bushman 130lt in and it's amazing how quick this cools down and holds temp compared to the old fridge. I have installed an internal temp controlled fan in it only because I had it already in the old 3 way but certainly doesn't require it and only runs on first start up! Highly recommend this fridge.Shopping Experience

Quality Value Price Product Review
Uses less power than an Engle or Waco, only uses 0.5 Amps/hour, it run all night on battery power and only used 10% . Plenty of storage shelves with lips so nothing gets thrown around like the other fridge we had. Freezer fits 6 Chinese take away containers in it. Not as expensive and more food storage capacity than an Engle or Waco, easier to get at drinks and food because it’s upright so not reaching or shuffling through to the bottom for something. We put one in the back of Our Landcruiser as well as Caravan.Shopping Experience
Quick and easy to order. Very surprisingly delivered to us in 3 days in busy Christmas season.Recommend this product to a friend? yes(Posted on 6 Jan 2020) - Bushman Fridge Review by Steve Richardson , Mayfield New South Wales

Fridge looks very good in our 1976 Viscount. A much bigger fridge than the original but takes up less room. Both fridge and freezer work very well and with a bonus of a light in the fridge.Shopping Experience

Product Faqs

Q:Can you get an adaptor for 240v and how easily can you switch power modes ?A:
Hi Bran, you certainly can. One of our more popular adaptors is this Dometic Waeco Cool Power 240 Volt Adaptor, 150W - this can be used when 240 Volt AC mains power is available and you want to run 12 / 24 Volt DC applainces. Simply connect this adaptor between the mains power outlet and your DC appliance (in this case a fridge) - this allows you to use mains power when its available instead of using your DC battery power. Thanks
-
Q:Is this fridge T rated ?A:
Hi There,
Bushman do rate this unit as T rated. Thanks
-
Q:Hi,will 2 litre milk bottles fit into the lower door pocket of this fridge?A:
Hi There,
Unfortunately a 2L milk bottle would not fit in the door compartment.
We would recommend 1L bottles be put in the door.
-
Q:Does the fridge door lockA:
Hi There,
Yes the door does have a locking latch.
The door latch prevents unexpected openings of the door when the vehicle is in motion.
-
Q:Is this suitable to go in the back of a canopy for camping and if so how would I mount it to my canopy?A:
Hi Harrison,
Thank you for your inquiry.
The answer is yes and no!
You can put a DC-X fridge on a canopy, however it needs to be packed more carefully than a chest fridge, ideally using plastic tubs, so everything doesn’t slide around inside the fridge. This is pretty normal for RV’s anyway.
The fridge can be mounted in many different ways. It is important to keep the soft rubber feet attached to the fridge as these absorb shock.
The fridge sheetmetal can be screwed in to using short (<8mm) Sheetmetal screws to affix the fridge to the canopy.
-
Q:Does A Caravan Fridge Need 240V?A:
Hi John,
Thanks for your question.
Essentially no you do not always need a caravan fridge with 240V. In fact, some brands, such as Bushman, recommend a 12V fridge only. This is because of the follow reasons:
- The fridge will last longer - caravan fridges with 240V built in have a 240 transformer attached to the compressor. This transformer generates excess heat, which in turn reduces the life of the compressor.
- The fridge will cool down faster - by removing the 240V transformer from the compressor, the cooling system will produce less heat. This therefore makes it easier and faster for the fridge to cool down.
- A 12V fridge costs less - a 12V and 240V fridge requires a qualified electrician to install and service the fridge. Whereas a 12V only fridge is generally cheaper to buy, install and service.
However, having a 240V fridge allows you to connect to AC mains power when available and run 12/24 Volt DC appliances.A middle ground option is to purchase a 12V Fridge and a Smart Charger, which will maintain your batteries when 240V power is available.Thanks. -
Q:Has the fridge an interior fanA:
Hi There,
No sorry, there is no internal fan in this fridge.
-
Q:When not using DC-X Bushmans van fridge it is recommended to leave door ajar when not turned on. How do I turn off interior lightA:
Hi There,
If the fridge is turned off, the internal light should not be illuminated at all.
-
Q:I have noticed that for another brand of fridge you quote the power consumption [aA/h] for 240V use, without actually noting this, but confirmed from manufacturer's website.Is the A/h consumption rate for this fridge also for 240V use. It is very low foA:
Hi There
The information supplied for this fridge is on 12V DC.
We would not have AC power ratings for the Bushman as it is stricly a 12/24V fridge only.
