ARB Elements Fridge Freezer

Let me just say, we watched hundreds of youtube reviews before finally choosing one. Smalls went with the 63 qt ARB Elements Fridge Freezer. He really wanted the option of either a fridge or freezer. We really weren’t sure whether we would need a fridge or freezer more often and it cuts down on space when you can only use 1 side. The Elements is also weatherproof so we can store it in truck bed without having to worry about keeping it covered. It also locks so we don’t have to worry about anyone getting into it. It does have provision for padlock if you want the added security. I like that the temperature is displayed on the outside so we don’t have to open it to see if the temperature is being maintained. Although, you do have to open it to adjust the temperature.

We did get the tilt mount from DFG off-road accessories to make it accessible under the roof top tent. The carry handles are recessed making it extra sturdy. There are both AC and DC power sockets depending on what you have available. We like the option to switch between the Jackery if we are off grid or charging on the truck while driving. The annoying thing is that other ARB fridges seem to have universal parts that can be used on multiple fridges while the ARB has parts that are all its own and more expensive. By the 3rd month, we have blown a fuse and are working with ARB to get a replacement so we will keep you updated on this situation. It seems too early to be having trouble.

***Update*** After a good bit of troubleshooting with ARB, we received a new fridge and returned the old one to ARB. The new one is maintaining temperature much better and so far no issues with fuses.
