Our Thoughts:
This is among our top 3 favorite food coolers! It has a large main compartment with excellent waterproof insulation that allows you to bring more fresh food on your 4-day trips. This will efficiently keep food cool in the heat of summer with only one ice pack, leaving more room for food. The dual purpose rear sleeve, zipper pocket is great for carrying extra items and the expandable pocket on the bottom is a plus for those who need it.
A personal selling point is the versatility of being able to still pack two bottles on the side pockets, however this may not be necessary for everyone.
If you use the expandable pocket on the bottom, the bag becomes too big to fit sitting upright under an aircraft seat when you are commuting and overhead bin space is full. Also, when the cooler is fully loaded and heavier at the beginning of the trip, it is more difficult to access the items in the bottom expandable pouch.
If using the bottom pocket for manuals or headsets, you don’t need to worry about your valuables getting wet due to the waterproof liner inside the main compartment.
