*Australia's Best Portable Camping Fridge
The Original and the Best.
Our customers have belted this fridge all over Australia for more than 25 years. It has truly withstood the tests of time.
If you’re after the most rugged, reliable and efficient portable fridge freezer you can buy, the OG Bushman is the perfect fridge for you. With a marine-grade electroplated metal cabinet and an oversized cooling unit for its 35 litre size, this fridge will stay cool in the hottest weather and never let you down.
At only 380mm high, it fits easily in a tight spot. Like under a bunk in your truck or caravan, or in the back of a ute with a hard tonneau cover.
This is a great size fridge to use as your daily go-to, as a secondary drinks fridge, or as a true 12v deep-freezer.
If you are after the best you can buy, you’ve just found it.

Add a 35L - 52L Extension Kit
$300+ worth of accessories for $200
Transform your Original Bushman 35L with our unique 35 – 52L extension kit.
This allows you to easily adjust the height of your fridge. So you can go from a 35L fridge, to 42L, 45L and right up to 52L. There’s separate areas for your frozen food, fridge items, crisper and tall bottles, which also makes it easier to access food that’s stuck on the bottom.
The extension kit is the best way to get more from your portable fridge investment. It’s one of a kind, and only available from Bushman.
