Bull Outdoor Products 11001 Stainless Steel Front Panel Refrigerator

We purchased this fridge for use down at our dock on the St. Johns River. It keeps the beverages cold, even in the hot Florida summer. It's a good sized fridge and will hold quite a few drinks (basically that is all we're using it for - sodas, water, beer, Gatorade & wine for guests while on our dock or out on the boat). It is stored on the dock in the "boathouse" area (meaning it has a roof covering it but is otherwise open it outside conditions).The biggest reason for my 5 star review is that we experienced Hurricane Irma 2 weeks ago. During the storm, the water in the river climbed to record levels. We had tied the chairs down to the dock, but never thought the water would come up enough to make the refrigerator FLOAT all over the dock. It banged around on the dock area (into the boat, into the dock box that floated away, into a huge bait tank that eventually floated away and various debris from the storm).We watched it for 4 hours until the winds/rains calmed down enough for us to go rescue it. It had unplugged itself when it floated and we thought we lost the cord, however when we checked it, everything looked fine. Our only loss from the fridge was a bottle of wine that had been opened. The banging around while it was floating caused the cork to come out. When we opened the fridge - there was no water inside and only the dregs of a good bottle of Cab. We put the fridge up on top of the chairs and let it dry out.After letting it "air dry" for almost two weeks, we plugged it back in and it's working like a charm!Thank you Bull Outdoor for a quality product! I'm sure you didn't design it to float around during a hurricane, but it did and held together! To anyone considering purchasing this product - I HIGHLY recommend it. It's durable and keeps the beer cold!

I am not happy with this refrigerator because it does not refrigerate. I am a residential contractor and ordered this Bull 11001 Stainless Steel under counter refrigerator to use in an outdoor kitchen under a covered patio. Since I used the Bull Stainless gas grill and the Bull Stainless Steel two burner cooktop, I chose the Bull Stainless refrigerator because I mistakenly thought that it would be comparable in quality to the Bull cooking products and to maintain brand continuity. Not good thinking...this refrigerator DOES NOT GET COLD. It runs and gets cool but not cold.The problem is that due to normal construction delays we did not even open the box until after the return period had expired. The refrigerator has been in use only about 1 month and does not work. Many clients want matching appliances so I may have to change out all of the outdoor appliances because of this poor quality Bull Refrigerator.I hope Amazon and/or Bull reads this review stands behind their product. As a builder, I have to warranty every component of a new residence for one year...right down to the light bulbs.

I bought this to replace a Bull refrigerator that had lasted about 10 years. Now, less than 3 years later it stopped cooling. Hard to find anyone to service it. The guy who showed up said parts are not available unless I wanted a used part from China. No thank you. So I guess you roll a dice when you buy a Bull refrigerator. If it lasts 10 years great. If it doesn’t it’s a throw away. Waste of money.

Worked as intended for 5 years . It has doubled in price since 2020 . At the current price I think it should last much longer than 5 years .

I have had my Bull Outdoor Refrigerator for over 3 years and it has been outside from April through October every year. The temperature has to be adjusted during extreme heat but I would expect that for an outdoor refrigerator with no protection over it. It is still working great with no rust and no hail damage, and we've had hail. I do bring it inside in the winter but only because I want to use it without going outside. I would highly recommend this however, I paid half the price when I purchased it in 2011. I think there was an error in the pricing on Amazon when I bought it because right after I got it the price doubled.

I bought this 4 years ago, it worked good until then, then it stopped cooling. I expected it to last longer since it was over $500.

Love this refrigerator. The optional left or right door mounting side came in real handy. I had to switch it from right to left. Stays very cold, even in the summer heat in Oklahoma. This is on my patio in our newly built outdoor kitchen. It gets hit with a little rain and sunshine since it is partially covered. So far it has seen the summer heat, heavy rain, and now winter elements. Looks to be going strong. A good unit without spending in the $1000 range for high end outdoor refrigerator.

I have had two of these. They averaged 2.5 years before stopped working.
