Great cooler for weekend adventures!
Great soft sided cooler! Fits 36+ cans (12oz) plus ice. 10lb bag of ice kept contents cold for 4 days (high 30s for temp inside cooler) before all the ice melted (outside temps in 60s). All of my soft sided coolers end up leaking, but not this one! There was no leakage when the ice melted! It also has a hard top, which is nice for packing the car and at campsite to put stuff on! The inside is removable, so easy to clean! This cooler is a nice size, still fits easily in trunk of Honda Civic or backseat. As for cooler size, perfect for a long weekend. Will be using lots for weekend adventures! Maybe next phase make them in fun, bright colors ;)
Exceeded expectations- 4 days+ and still cold
I couldn’t be happier with this cooler! It kept items cold for a full 4 days during my test run. My test consisted of putting two 7 lb bags of ice and checking in at intervals to see how much ice was left. By day four, the ice had melted, but the water and interior were still very cold — comparable to my home refrigerator. The vertical design is perfect for my needs. It holds a lot without taking up much ground space, which is perfect for my SUV. The compact footprint makes it super convenient for car storage, though it might be less ideal for small trunk spaces. The flat top is a bonus — I used it as a small table during stops on my road trip. Beyond travel, it’s been great for everyday use — like grocery shopping. I put frozen and refrigerated items inside (even without ice), and they stayed cold for hours, giving me the freedom to run errands without rushing home. This cooler is now a permanent fixture in my car. It’s reliable, efficient, and thoughtfully designed. Highly recommend for road trippers, campers, or anyone who wants serious cooling power in a smart, space-saving design!
Car Camping and Tailgating
Brought this new cooler on a couple of day trips around town to the zoo and children's museum, followed by a spring break trip. Overall, the cooler is very well insulated and kept ice for greater than 24 hours in 60-70 degree weather. For trips where the cooler will stay entirely in the car, however, it is actually too large to fit on the floor of our SUV's second row. It had to actually either go on a seat or in the trunk, limiting its accessibility while the car is in motion. At the hotel, it worked well out on the balcony or down at the pool, but again, its size is very noticeable. It again kept everything cold and the cooler lid is stable enough to serve as a small table, but it is awkward to carry. It is very light due to the soft design yet almost feels like it should have wheels from its size. Overall, this won't become our standard cooler for summer outings. It seems best suited for a tailgating weekend or a camping trip where everything would be right next to the car. I can't imagine taking this cooler far away from the car on either of those trips.
Half the price of a yeti
Wanted a soft sided cooler. Yeti is just too expensive. Haven’t had a chance to try it out, but I think it’ll do a good job.
