ARB MT35 Fridge $425 Firm

This is my fridge for sale.

Price is firm and that is only half the cost of a new one.

No trades desired unless you have one of the smaller fridges like the Dometic 18 with a cover :elkgrin:

I bought it used with an eye to putting it in my trailer but decided against it. Am hoping for a local sale so it is posted in Craigslist here in SoCal

It is pretty much exactly the same as the Engel MT35. ARB no longer sells this model but on Amazon the Engels are $865 or so

Capacity: 34qt.
Dimensions: 25-1/2"L x 16"H x 14-5/16"W
Power Requirements: 2.5A @ 12V DC; 0.7A @ 110V AC
Weight: 46.3lb.
Functions: Refrigerate or freeze (not both)
Voltage: 12/24V DC or 110V AC
Door: Hinged lid, top load
Sawafugi Compressor

.
For those who may request shipping just use the dimensions given and add about 6" to them and bump the weight up to 50+ pounds. Also factor in packing materials and residential delivery as carriers gouge a little more for that. One estimate I had came to about $55 with 2/3 of that being FedEx charges

Hey, you never know. Sometimes good deals can languish quite a while. :sombrero:

Did you purchase new? How old is the fridge?

I did not buy this new. I bought it from someone who seemed to have bought it a little while before ARB switched to the plastic body models which has been a few years. Either way, they seem to run forever. My Engel MT45 has been running 24/7 for about 7 years.

Very tempting. Do you know the mfg date? How much/often do you use it? AC and DC cords included? Any issues?

I have only had it a few months. I have only run it a few times just to test. I plugged it in just now and will let it run overnight but don't anticipate it not working. I did not see an obvious date but maybe someone knows how to date them? Both cords ae included.

Same here, this design seems pretty bulletproof. I know the new plastic ARBs are supposed to be better (better insulated, etc) but I like this style better, especially on the transit rack. Whenever I see one come up for sale I always want to jump on it - but then I remember I still have the one I bought in 2004 and that it still works perfectly. :)

I'm interested. Let me look into shipping to 37923.

It looks as if keeping the box size no to more than +6" over the actual dimensions could be key to keeping costs down. Including materials it seems that for ZIPs 14903 and 37923 using my FedEx account number I'll swag it at $100 for shipping but whatever it finally is it will be FedEx + $20 for bubble wrap and a box. If someone knows how to do it cheaper please let me know.

Some folks have asked about overall condition, scrapes and dings. Overall it is very clean and the ARB blue paint still looks good. There are some minor scrapes and dings that should not be deal breakers for anyone at this price or even a higher price. If I get a chance I can take some more photos.
