This beast is amazing [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lucky enough to be asked to review this product and finally had the chance to use it. I have to be honest and say it’s not an item I would have bought but having road tested it on a lovely sunny weekend I have changed my mind!Firstly let me say it’s a beast. It’s a BIG piece of kit and quite weighty even when empty. It just about fitted in the boot of my Fiesta to transport it to my caravan and I put it in on my own but no way could I have done that when it was full.We had a big birthday celebration in the sun so perfect time to use it and it exceeded all expectations. Put five bags of ice in on the Saturday and I would say there were still two bags left on the Tuesday. Probably put too much ice in and three or four would have been better but I will know for next time. We added a few bottles of wine and Prosecco, some soft drinks in cans and a case of 12 beers straight from the shop. The beers especially chilled really quickly and were much colder than if they had been stored in a fridge. Thumbs up from the beer drinkers! Everything kept beautifully cold.The chill drawer was used for dips and snacks, brilliant addition as they were kept dry and easily accessible.The handle is great and the whole thing is so sturdy and easy to move even when full. Insulation is brilliant even when inadvertently left in full sun. I think next time I will drain off the water that accumulates in the bottom from some of the ice that has melted although that doesn’t detract from performance.As with all my other Ninja products, the FrostVault is excellent. So much thought goes into making them easy to use, efficient, cost effective and good looking. Love my Ninjas!Would definitely recommend this product and am really looking forward to using it through what I hope will be a great sunny summer!Photos show the product after unboxing, when filled on the Saturday, then on the Monday but with water in the bottom and finally on Tuesday after water had been drained out. Still extremely cold and would have stayed that way another 48 hours I would think.
Love it! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recived this to review for free. We used the cooler to transport frozen food on a 6 hour journey. The cooler is well made and held half our freezer of food. However the first problem we had was fitting it into our car. Our car is a Vauxhall Mokka. It took up 2 seats in the car. Which was ok for us as there was 3 of us. If there was more then 3 passengers this would have been a problem. We then put it into our boot which left no room for suitcase.We wheeled it over grass, stones, pavements and gravel. The cooler moved easily over all the surfaces that we tried. The cooler could benifit from 2 front wheels and an extenable handle so that it just rolls along by the side of you instead of having to lift the front up. Everything about it was well made and built to last. On arriving at our hoiladay home everything was still as we put the food in. We did not use ice just 2 ice blocks. Perhaps on a hot day a couple more ice blocks may be needed.i think it would be excellent for camping trips where you are off grid or no electric hock up. Picnics beach days if a group of you to share. If only a small family perhaps a smaller sized cooler box would be better for days out etc. Also check your car measurements against the specifications provided before you both.do I love it.....yes I do.
Excellent cooling performance [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product to review for free. This, by far, has been the best cooler I have used. The ice in the cooler lasted for a good four days and even though towards the end where the ice turned to water, the insulation in the cooler kept our drinks very cold. Its very easy to open and close the cooler securely. Its very generous capacity easily holds enough drinks for a gathering. The dry drawer is a major plus point as it truly does keep items such as sandwiches, fruit, crudités and dips very cold without the worry of water getting to the items. The drawer is rather spacious for such items to be placed in it. Opening the drawer however, did not glide as smoothly as I expected it to unfortunately, but this didnt effect its performance. I was impressed by the ease and sturdiness of the terrain wheels making the cooler extremely easy to manoeuvre, along with the pull out handle bar. Overall, the cooling performance is excellent and the item sturdy, manoeuvrable and very well made indeed.
Brilliant cooler [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this to try out gor free.Ive not had a chance to use it anywhere out of the house as yet but we gave it a trial run inside.Added ice and cans of coke and then put sandwiches in the drawer. The next day everything was still cold and the ice was still ice. Im sure this would stay the same for another night at least.The build quality is great, seems very well madeIts huge so likely take into consideration where you will store it.It holds more than enough for 2 ppl.Its weighty but the handle makes it easy to move around.It would have been good if the chopping board/divider was included, but its something that can be purchased separately if you feel it would be useful.Im more than pleased with it, and cant wait to use it properly.I will come back and add to this review once Ive tried it out more.
Absolutely brilliant [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recieved this last weekend and took it on a day trip. The cooler is huge and fits everything for a family 4 would need and then some! The ice was still intact when we got home. It’s sturdy enough to use as a table and the dry drawer is such a great touch. I can’t recommend this product enough but would be suitable for bigger families or longer trips than just to the beach for the day. You will not be disappointed.
