If you’ve got a small space but still need to keep a bunch of food chilled, the DC85-X from Bushman is the go-to fridge for campers, caravans, 4x4 canopies, boats and even those adapting to tiny house living.
With an 85L capacity, this compact fridge fits a surprising amount inside and uses a top-mounted variable speed drive Secop Danfoss BD35 compressor. It’s designed to go off-road and features soft custom rubber feet to help stabilise the fridge when you’re navigating uneven terrain. The internal 6L freezer compartment uses a 360º integrated cooling element and is purposefully deep and narrow to leave more room in your fridge. The refrigeration cooling system is oversized to maximise efficiency while keeping the overall power consumption low – using an average of 1.25 Amp/hr over 24 hours based on an ambient temperature of 25ºC and the fridge temp set to 4ºC.
The Bushman DC85-X is for those who want an upright fridge with maximum capacity and a reversible door, so you can tailor it precisely the way you need. It’s like a mini version of your fridge at home but perfect for when you’re not.

Hi, do you sell the crisper drawer? if not do you have the dimensions?
G'day Chloe,
We dont stock the crisper tub, so we cant get the dimensions for you sorry.
Bushman don't list any specifications for the crisper on their website, so you may have to get in touch with them directly.
Can these fridges be hook up to 240 volt mains also
G'day David,
No they cant, the Bushmans Uprights only run on 12/24v.
If you are needing an upright fridge with the flexibility to do 12/24 & 240v, we'd recommend checking out Engels version
Is this fridge fully enclosed around the back (no rear photos)
G'day Greg,
No, it's not technically. The body of the fridge is fully sealed, but there is one top corner cut out where the compressor sits, which isnt enclosed.
Does it come with a 12volt lead?
G'day Michael,
*UPDATE OCT 2023 - Whilst previous versions of this fridge required installation by an auto electrician, it now comes with a hardwired Anderson cable for user installation.
