Five Star Reviews: | 33% Five Stars May 18, 2017 Light and easy to carry. Keep everything cool and fresh for more than 5 hours. Awesome little cooler! May 19, 2016 Great product, we gave this one for a wedding gift. We have one and it's awesome! Wonderful cooler. Not a single negative November 17, 2015 Wonderful cooler. Not a single negative. Looks somewhat small compared to what you can put in it. And the cart is great. Very smooth. I would definitely recommend. Love how it collapses August 28, 2015 Wow!!! Seriously this thing is the bomb! Love how it collapses, love how tall the handle comes up, love how attractive it is, love how the lining comes out to clean and it's leakproof!!!! Love the small flip top for a quick grab, love that's it's Columbia. This is worth every penny. Perfect size too. 😍 | 68% Great for lunch boxes September 16, 2017 These are perfect lunch box coolers, and includes four separate packs. They are very slim, enough to put one under food, and one above, or on either side. They also don't take up much room in the freezer.Since they are rather thin, they don't take much time to freeze. They are a perfect size for lunch boxes, but not very helpful for larger coolers. Love that these are slim and can fit in narrow ... July 26, 2016 Love that these are slim and can fit in narrow spaces in lunch boxes!I use 2,one on top of my entree and the other by my beverage to keep them both cool!Still able to fit lots of other stuff in my lunch bag too!These are great space savers!!They also stay cool for around 12 hours,which is nice incase you forget your lunch or forget to unpack your uneaten items quickly once home from work. Great ice packs! June 21, 2016 I ordered these after I got some fit and fresh containers and discovered how much I love the thin ice packs. I can slip this into my lunch box around the edges between box and food, slide them in between my sandwich and my drink, and put the smaller sizes into even smaller spaces! They are light weight and do a great job of keeping my food icy cold for hours. I highly recommend them.***Update***I have had these for over a year now and they are still going strong. One of them bulges a bit, but nothing scary. They also fit into Coleman FlipLid 6 Personal Cooler with no problems. The smaller fit and fresh slim ice packs also fit into the lids of the fit and fresh boxes, giving me even more cold in my lunch box without taking up any additional space! I don't know if you can buy those separately, but here is one of the sets I have. Fresh Starts 1 Cup Chilled Lunch Containers with Removable Ice Packs Great slim ice pack for lunch box March 18, 2016 These lunchbox ice packs are perfect for using in kids' lunchboxes. My child carries a very slim lunchbox, so as to take up less room in his backpack. (This one: eBags Slim Lunch Box (Black)) This ice pack is perfect for this particular lunch box because it's thin enough not to take up a lot of room in a bag that doesn't have a lot of width to begin with. I can slip the ice pack in the mesh area in the top of his lunch box and have plenty of room left for a growing boy's lunch!The ice packs freeze quickly and, due to their shape, also don't take up a ton of room in the freezer, which is great. They stay frozen quite a while and keep my child's lunch cold until lunchtime everyday. And with a pack of four, I always have extras in the freezer as needed.These ice packs are a really great value for the price. At about $2 each, you get a great ice pack that fits in a lunch box and keeps the fold cold until it's ready to be eaten. You really can't beat that. Keep Cool and perfect size for Lunch Boxes. January 9, 2016 These have lasted through 2 school years and been used almost everyday for school and summer camps. We have ordered more because I find they get used a lot...tailgating, road trips, golfing, these things fit into small coolers and hold the cold for a decent amount of time considering the small size and weight. Great product, very happy I came across these when I did. I had always used the larger and bulkier cool packs in the past and found these were a much better solution. They are awesome, and if you google these November 6, 2015 Here's how we pack our kiddos lunches:1) Ziploc divided rectangle containers - I don't know why these were ever discontinued! They are awesome, and if you google these, you will see there are so many out there just as disappointed as me! Including Lisa Leake from 100 Days of Real Food, as this was the container she suggested using!2) This luncbox - http://www.amazon.com/Columbia-Northern-Upright-Lunch-HardBody/dp/B00UMY3NK8/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1446852695&sr=1-1&keywords=columbia+lunch+box3) The Fit & Fresh Slim Ice PacksThe above is the winning combo!! I regularly pack string cheese or freshly cut cheddar cheese for my kids lunches. By lunchtime, the cheese would warm and I would find them in their lunchboxes at the end of the day. I'm happy to report that there is no more wasted cheese. It seems to keep the product cool enough until lunchtime.There is condensation/perspiration in the lunchbox at the end of the day, but I would expect that from an ice pack. They are slim, so they don't take up alot of room in the freezer. Since the pack comes with 4, it's the perfect amount to for a family of 5. We currently only pack 2 lunches a day and the 4 works for us. | 70% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 26% Good Cooler August 7, 2017 Cooler does hold a lot. Moves with ease and the handle folds down easily. Being soft sided things fall over when trying to load the cooler up. Soft uneven bottom. Four Stars January 25, 2016 the cart is strong and functional. The bag is well made. I wish it had a shoulder strap. Pretty good cooler... December 2, 2015 This cooler works pretty well. The only thing I have an issue with is how it stays on the wheels, which is not the greatest. It's to be expected for a cloth like cooler. With traveling, this is a great cooler. Great cooler. My only complain is that when it ... November 21, 2015 Great cooler. My only complain is that when it is full it doesn't stand alone Love the removable wheels October 28, 2015 Love the removable wheels ,I was able to pac a full bag right into a suitcase and travel on a plane with it Great cooler October 24, 2015 I bought this cooler to replace my cooler that was lost. I love this new cooler. Keeps things cold. Once I figured out that you have to pull out the stand at the bottom I liked it better!!! | 13% Yup, they are slim July 24, 2017 When they say slim, they mean slim. These are probably less than 1/2 inch wide. They stay nice and cold, and would be nice around sandwiches, but they aren't going to keep you can of soda cold all day. When used like an ice pad, they last about 20 minutes. These are good think cool packs which i use in a lunch ... April 13, 2017 These are good think cool packs which i use in a lunch bag. they stay frozen for an hour or two and cool for another hour or so. I don't think you will have success with it trying to use it to cool down something warm or even room temp, but if you are just trying to keep things cool for a few hours, they work perfect and don't take up much room. Could stand to be a bit thicker/heavier duty but great for the size December 28, 2016 The cooling capacity seems a bit light, but the package is also conveniently thin. Pack two and you still won't over-burden your kit but you will keep everything cool. Slim to slide between items! July 26, 2016 UPDATE: i have had these for just over a year. I'm a teacher and use them daily in my lunch. One of these has started to leak blue goo on my freezer shelf. I took off one star for that, because it is inconvenient. One out of 4 leaking for the first time after a year is pretty good. The bagged blue ice leaks after just a few uses. I still recommend buying this. Having 4 is convenient.These cooling ice packs are my favorite! These last for hours and do a great job of keeping food & drinks cold. I love how slim they are and how easy they are to slide between food or drinks. They take up much less room than other ice packs! Great price on Amazon as well! Perfect for small Lunch Boxes February 11, 2016 I like these because they are thin for starters and easier to use in soft side coolers and any smaller item such as a lunch box. The other reason is these dont sweat all over like the older gel packs that were soft sided. And lastly these retain their shape unlike those soft gel packs that stayed in the shape they formed while in the freezer (which was often not a shape I desired or it was uneven). They stay cool all day July 13, 2015 I got these coolers for my lunch bag. They work pretty good because the keep my shake and sandwiches cold all morning and when I get home and put them in the freezer they are still cold so the stay cool almost all day. | 14% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 24% Three Stars July 27, 2016 I was looking for a smaller size and the straps need to be tighter on the cart cooler is loosly strapped on rolling support. June 19, 2016 I wanted a rolling cooler attached to the rolling part instead I get a cooler attached by 2 small straps to the back rolling support. I love the rolling part it is quiet and does not click clack down the hall. The support is ok. The security of the bag to the support is non existent. I am disappointed. I had to go buy bungee cord tie downs to hold cooler on rolling stand. Bag needs to be more secure to roller part. ... June 16, 2016 Bag needs to be more secure to roller part. Unless you bungee cord it, the bag flops off. Otherwise, keeps food cool Glad I Splurged August 19, 2015 It's true, it's a little pricey, but it's Columbia. The zippers are great, the easy access hole in the top is great, the pocket is large, but the best part is the easily removable lining for cleaning. Only problem is it's not for rolling on grass. The wheels can only roll well on the sidewalk. | 9% I bought these for my daughter to take in her ... September 23, 2017 I bought these for my daughter to take in her snack box to school. She eats an hour and half after school starts and these keep her drink and snack cold. But when I used these to keep drinks cold on a trip to the park, they were melted and room temp within 4 hours. And the drinks were already cold when I put everything in the cooler. So everything that we needed cold quickly lost their chill. Not for long term use. Great ice packs however they did not keep cold an ... September 22, 2017 Great ice packs however they did not keep cold an entire school day.Bought these for my granddaughter for her lunch bag.We have had some hot days in California this summer.By lunch time they were melting a bit.Do like the fact they are slim I was able to fit all 4 of them in her bag.The set comes with 4 slim cool coolers.They are reusable ice packs non-toxic.you can use them in your grocery bags as well for your cold items. WATER NOT GEL! September 21, 2017 So after these arrived I double checked the description and it doesn't say if it is gel or water. I wanted gel. I know that gel stays frozen longer and I had no idea what temperature the school keeps the classrooms. Every day these (2 over the food container inside an insulated box) come home completely melted and nothing is cold. My daughter says it is cold at lunch time when she eats her lunch but honestly I am a little leary about that. I guess I need to do a time check over the weekend. But either way payday is next week and I will be buying gel packs. I have not had any leaking or any other problems other then them not lasting long enough. I know have 8 of these taking up space in my freezer. I guess they will come in handy for picnics? Good but could be better July 21, 2017 I really like the size of these they're the perfect fit for my lunch box while leaving plenty of room as well as not taking up much space in the freezer. My only complaint is that they do not last long. They keep my lunch cold 4-5 hours which is acceptable as I'll eat my lunch within that time frame but I'd like it if they would keep drinks cold through out the day. I will say I live in Florida and it's extremely hot all the time so I may be expecting to much. For the price I am satatisfied but still searching for coolers that last through the Florida heat. Not cool enough for late work lunches July 27, 2016 I had every intention of liking these. They are innovative. I like that they are slim. However, my challenge is my husband's lunchbox. He commutes 1.5 hrs each way and often by the time he eats, he found that these packs not only weren't cold, they were tepid. Granted, my husband's lunch conditions are not ideal, but we had to search for something thicker that did keep his lunch cooler. I ended up passing these on to a friend with a larger canvas cooler and they will work great in that situation. She was thrilled. Don't last as long as I expected when frozen February 26, 2015 I bought these to keep my insulated lunch bag cold inside between leaving for home around 7:45am and having lunch around noon. Usually, by the time I have lunch, these have completely thawed out and the contents of the bag are approaching room temperature. For that reason I'm not a huge fan of them, but they are thin, relatively cheap, and fine as long as you aren't keeping something cold for several hours. | 9% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 5% Disappointed June 24, 2016 I was so excited to purchase these for our trip to Talladega. I got two so my parents could have one also. I thought these would be great to bring into the track as it meets the size requirements. The only issue is - that when you are rolling it the bag falls right off the roller. The only thing holding it on there is a velcro strap and it is not enough. I think we spent more time stopping and putting it back on the roller than we did walking. It was very frustrating. I think if it had a big velcro strip on the bottom of the bag to attach to the roller and the strap for the back when around the entire bag it may be better. Major Design Flaws - May 10, 2016 Had read both pros and cons on this item and decided to give it a try anyway. Some major flaws without a doubt. The fact that the cooler is loosely velcroed to the frame is a nuisance but even worse is that once it is loaded and you pull it around and and move it around, the bottom frame retracts for some unknown reason and the whole thing falls forward upsetting everything that might be upright in the cooler. Had bought in hoping to replace a very nice one similar to it from Sam's Club that we bought years ago but it just doesn't cut the mustard. As soon as we can find a better made item this will end up at the Goodwill. Sure wish we could find the one we had before - it was the best. I would not spend the money on it again for sure. The picture I am enclosing is what it looks like every time after we load it with food. Very frustrating. | 5% the picture made these look like they were much larger than they are - bought ... September 2, 2017 the picture made these look like they were much larger than they are - bought to use in the wheeled tote and way to small - disappointed - should have been pictured next to a ruler so you can tell as the picture was so blown up it was deceiving Do not stay frozen long. May 30, 2017 I am not a fan of these at all. They are filled with a watery fluid instead of a gel. They sweat and do not stay frozen for long. I have to use at least two of them just to keep my lunch cool until time to eat it. Don't trust them to keep things cool very long February 21, 2017 These don't stay cold very long. Whereas other ice packs I've used for school lunches come back still mostly frozen at the end of school in an insulated lunch bag, these are completely liquid again by the end of school. Don't trust them to keep things cool very long. I've had to start moving things to a fridge as soon as I get to work so they don't go bad. December 10, 2016 These only stay cold for about 3 hours. I use 2 in my lunchbag, and my bag is room temperature all day. I pack it at 8 in the morning, and open it up around 11:30 or 12 noon, and they are usually unfrozen, and the contents of the bag (soda can, sandwich/salad, ect. Typical lunch) are just barely cold. I've had to start moving things to a fridge as soon as I get to work so they don't go bad. Not Cool Coolers... October 21, 2016 I liked the thin design of these so that they would fit easily in the freezer and lunchboxes. I quickly realized that having the thin design is not worth it. It takes at least two of these to keep your meal cold until lunch...and, if you want a snack at the end of the day, even with all four cooler packs, you can forget about it. All of the lunchboxes we use are quality, well insulated lunchboxes that have worked very well with other ice packs. These just aren't quality ice packs. Nope May 21, 2015 These are a nice idea, but miss the mark on function. The size really is wonderful, they take up so much less space than the thicker ice packs. However, they just don't last long enough. The #1 purpose is to keep your food cold, and that is sacrificed with the slim design. I pack my lunch at 8am, and when I eat it at noon (just 4 hours later) the pack is liquid and only the things that are right up against it are still cold. My lunch box is kept inside a large closet that is probably 70 degrees or so. I can imagine that a lunch box kept outside or in an non airconditioned room, or just in a warm area, wouldn't be cold longer than an hour or so. I'll see if two packs will fit in my lunch box, otherwise will go back to the thicker ones that are still FROZEN after 4 hours!!! | 5% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 12% Had one for years and loved it. New one is a big disappointment. September 4, 2016 Have the previous version seveeral years old, and wanted one where the zippers worked. New one is a GREAT disappointment. Cooler bag itself is fine, but the straps securing it to the frame are not nearly as sturdy as the ones on my old Columbia rolling cooler. Also the frame and handle are flimsy compared to my old one. The bottom expandable section collapses back in without warning. Fortunately, I did not throw out the old one. I intend to cut off the new velcro stuff, trash the new handle and frame and sew the far more robust velcro attachments onto the new cooler (thankfully, the plastic waterproof insert is removable, so I can sew without making it leaky) and mount it on the old frame/handle/wheels. They took a great product and turned it into a piece of crap. I recommend that nobody buys this shabby shadow of what was once a great product Horrible Cooler August 6, 2016 This Roller cooler stinks compared to all the Roller coolers I have ever had! Zero side wall support and structure and after 2 uses the inside liner is ripped! It probably came ripped! I would throw this one away! Leaks like Niagara Falls June 28, 2016 Leaks like Niagara Falls. Does not keep ice. Won't stay upright.Being Columbia I thought it would met their standards, but disappointed.Should have gotten a Gator. Worst product I EVER bought. Skinny, ill-fitting straps that attached to the handle November 28, 2015 I liked the size, the colors, the looks, the thick insulation, the leakproof lining that you can detach for easy cleaning.What I really didn't like is the way the bag is attached to the trolley - by two skinny, loose-fitting straps at the back (see photo #1), and none at the base. When the bag is loaded, it slips and slides around on the trolley-base, making it very cumbersome and difficult to handle. Compare this to the Frige-To-Go brand wheeled coolerbag that has a broad and snug-fitting fabric band at the back, with double strips of velcro (see photo #2 and #3), plus four small velcro tabs at the base, two on each side (photo #4), making it extremely sturdy.Whenever this trolley bumps along uneven flagstones, or is dragged down a low kerb, the loaded cooler bag will slide OFF the base -- the skinny straps do NOTHING to hold it! I am a small-sized senior citizen, and I find it extremely aggravating to have to lift the heavy bag onto the trolley time and again. The problem is temporarily solved using a luggage strap - as shown in photo #5. You may want to consider doing the same if you are having the same problem. | 5% Do not stay cold for more than two or three hours indoors. September 27, 2017 I have to say find another product!. I wanted use these to keep a sandwich cold in my insulated bag. I am 74 years old and confined to a wheelchair. I did not want to go from the bedroom to the kitchen in the middle of the night. The temperature inside the house is 74 degrees. I put three of these in the bag with my cold sandwich, the bag was in the fridge since morning Three hours later the blocks have all melted, the sandwich was no longer COLD. Fortunately the meat and mayo was still cool, another hour and the sandwich would have been in the trash. If you use these for your child's lunch box, don't give him/her anything like mac. salad or chicken salad (mayo based). Really, I would find a better product, the 'Blue Ice' blocks stay cold much longer. Save your $$$ September 14, 2017 Waste of money. These are very thin and do not stay frozen very long. Does not stay frozen long enough September 10, 2017 I bought these to replace my kids' lunch blox blue ice coolers. They are the perfect size to keep sandwiches cold but they do NOT stay frozen. My kids said they were completely melted by lunch and not even cold! My lunch blox coolers would still be frozen when the kids got home from school. Very disappointed. Would not recommend. Don't buy! July 11, 2017 I'm a police officer and work a 10 hour shift. I use them for my lunch box. My food does not stay cool and the cool coolers are always melted prior to the end of my shift. Yes they are kept in a insulated lunchbox in my patrol car. | 2% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
