AO Coolers Original Soft Cooler with High-Density Insulation

This is a good, high-quality cooler. It holds four six-packs of beverage or a bunch of food for an outdoor event or trip. Throw a large block of ice in it and it will keep food cold for 24 hours. It’s the perfect size.

I purchased the 12 can size in order to transport breast milk during a 6 day trip out of town for work. Every day I brought this cooler to the convention with me along with a gallon sized ziplock bag full of ice. After pumping I’d store the milk in the cooler. I was away from a fridge about 8 hours each day but the cooler kept everything very cold. In fact, at the end of the day the ice would still be mostly unmelted in the ziplock bag, and the milk would be cold.At the end of the trip I packed all of the milk into my AO Cooler along with another ziplock bag full of ice. I was able to freeze some of the milk before flying and when I got home about 8 hours later only two 6oz bags of milk had slightly started to thaw. The rest was still frozen solid. Most of the milk I transported was not frozen and the sturdiness of this cooler prevented any bags from opening, even when jostled by other carry-on luggage in the overhead storage bin on the airplane. All of the milk was extremely cold when I made it home. If you are going to be expressing breast milk away from home more than 6 days, I might recommend getting the 24 can size instead. I could only fit a very little bit of ice in the cooler on my way home with the 12 can size that I purchased.This bag made the very stressful process of transporting and storing breast milk while away from home as painless as possible. The 12 can size is large – don’t expect it to easily fit underneath the seat in front of you on an airplane. But it is sturdy, well-made, and can protect your precious cold items during long periods of time away from refrigeration.As a side note – when I got home I accidentally left a ziplock bag full of ice in my AO Cooler for over a day before I realized it was there. The cooler was unzipped that entire time, and when I pulled the bag out of the cooler, the ice had melted but it was still extremely cold. The insulation in these coolers is pretty amazing.

AO or bust! AO bags are the best cooler bags! They keep your food and beverages cold in even the highest heat. We don’t even use an ice chest anymore. These bags are the absolute best!

Keeps food cold for a very long time.,Lightweight! Bought the large one, if you were packing a picnic you would need the space.

This is a great soft cooler. we bought to put in the trunk of our Tri Glide motorcycle and it fits and works great. It doesn't keep ice frozen for more than a day or day and a half but its great for what we needed it for. It's very well made

He hasn’t stopped talking about this great productColdness, easy to use, waterproofness , strap is perfect. He said he could use three of these bags!! Loves it!

Used this on a 2-week sailing trip in the British Virgin Islands with 6 of the recommended COOLER SHOCK 18degree ice replacements. Had a 4-fold purpose: 1) take high quality meat and salmon we could cook ourselves for a party of 6 to save literally $1000+, 2) keep sunscreen, shampoo, and other liquids frozen so we could "carry-on" them through multiple TSA security checks, 3) keep ice cold on the sailboat , 4) easily carry ice and cold drinks to beaches.The 24-count size was a little large for under-the-seat carry-on so we had to check it. Would have fit in the overhead compartment. Kept everything frozen super-hard through 3 connections, 12+ hours, long layovers in 90+ degree heat.As others have recommended, turn your freezer down as low as possible to get everything frozen to as low a temperature as possible (ours goes down to 26degrees). Put the AO Cooler in the freezer overnight before leaving so it is also as cold as possible. I loaded the AO Cooler before putting it into the freezer because I was not sure if freezing it first would cause it to be brittle or difficult to load. Note that because of the "soft-sided" nature it was easy to squeeze it into our freezer after loading. This also made it comfortable to the touch when carrying.Realistically, when using this for ice for drinks, keeping beverages cold, etc. it really only works for 36 hours. Each time you open it decreases the time the ice stays frozen and by then end of 36 hours it was generally all melted water (still cold, but melted). In comparison, the regular Igloo coolers supplied by the chartering company only lasted 12 hours. Note that most ice we got seemed to be barely frozen at 32degrees and melted super-quickly.I would recommend getting 4 of the 10”x9” MID-SIZE-COOLER-SHOCKs for the sides of the 24-Count AO COOLER and the 5-pack of the COOLER-SHOCK-LUNCH-SIZE-PACKS for the ends and top. The 10”x9” were too wide to fit at the top. As per instructions (and science) it makes little sense to put the COOLER-SHOCKs at bottom.I cannot say enough about how sturdy this bag is. Only wish is that I got the backpack version as this is quite heavy when fully loaded.

Looking for a soft cooler to fit on the boat. Best ever!!! Keeps it ice for HOURS!!! No sweat in 90° either!! High recommend!

Love this cooler bag. We got the 12pack and it's the perfect size for day trips and picnics. Great for camping when paired with our cooler. Kept the drinks cold for a few days!

Se ve de muy buena calidad, de hecho yo la compré pensando que éra pequeña, pero la realidad es que si es. Grande pero no tengo tanto problema porque como quiera se dobla un poco y cabe perfectamente en la cajuela de mi auto, el tiempo en el que llegó fue en 4 días después de haber hecho la compra. La verdad sí estoy muy satisfecho con ella.

届いて出し形を調え持ってみる!めっちゃ軽くて良い品物だと思います釣り🎣釣行に良くいのでその時用に購入して良かったです良い買い物ができました

This is great for travelling- it’s large super efficient at keeping things cold- well insulated, good strong build. If it’s only partially filled it folds in making packing so much easier. The old hard esky bit the dust…it wasn’t even a comfortable seat.😁

日本からインドへ冷凍の食品を持っていくのに使用しました。トラブルでスーツケースがインドに届いたのは72時間後でした。中身の冷凍食品は半解凍されてましたが幸いにも捨てずに済みました。保冷剤は沢山いれていました。
