Reading this thread for the first time on a 2 nighter....while looking at my 12 quid tesco special with 8 semi & almost melted ice packs in it. I'm 28hrs in! I currently fear for my beer.

Perhaps i need an upgrade of a paperbag!

But. I do have an igloo box for pike & cat deadbait. Great kit and if mine did not smell like a dead hooker in a heat wave i would use it for food. Works great in summer. Had it for 5/6yrs at least. If you need a small box its good.

Back to my coolbox issue. Do i throw a few quid at Danny for his next holiday or does anyone else rave about the s-tek?
Cheers

I'm still swaying between the korda cool bag x-large or the korda cooler.. I'll pop down the local shop and see what size works for me

A box is better than a bag usually, as I said earlier a small Igloo is worth a look, cheaper than fishing brand bags

No surprise to me, they work great. I use them in black (non insulated) for my tools too and the boxes are indestructible. Sit or stand on it no problem.

The De Walt one they said
Our verdict: You certainly get what you pay for with this high-performance cooler. With a temperature increase of only 4.4°C across the whole day, this cool box was the closest of the coolers to matching the electric cooler's performance. Its temperature increased by only 0.8°C more than the Outwell electric cooler. And it's durable too, with a dense, rugged design that makes it heavy but protective
it seems like the performance of the ice tek but cheaper ?

As I understand you need a piece of advice. Usually, when I want to buy something I consult more sites where they have a description of the product and a review page. One of the best platforms is Backpacks Global Backpacks.Global. In my point of view is the best because they have articles related to backpacks and they may recommend you the best option and on top of that they have a review section where you can read other's experience. Try to go on their site and for sure you will discover something suitable for you.

However quite often those reviews are posted on receiving the product and have no real basis on how the product performs, just how it looks or on their service with that retailer.

That said there can be the odd review that is useful but very few in my experience.

I can confirm the Hi-Gear Self Inflating 20L Cooler works incredibly well its a sorta cross between a cool bag and a cool box ideal for 24 to 48 hour sessions
