Best backup ever keeps everything cool not hard to carry over my shoulders

We needed a cooler that was easy to transport for our daughters volleyball tournaments so far it’s worked great! We love the dry storage area for sandwiches and fruit. It keeps things cold the whole day which is exactly what we needed. The only downfall is we wish the dry storage was bigger for what we use it for. It can be a little too heavy when the top is full of ice and drinks but still works great.

I am a fan of Ninja products and this one does not disappoint. We took this to the ball fields in 100 degree weather and both the dry space and the drink area stayed super cold the whole day. I was concerned about carrying the backpack on my 4’10” frame but it was easy to carry from the car to the ball fields and back. That being said-I don’t know how a long hike would feel unless you are used to backpack hiking. It holds enough drinks for a day trip and does not leak.

I’ve been looking for a cooler I can take on road trips. Because I travel often for work, I wanted something small that could also keep my leftovers or perishable treats like candy bars from melting in the sun on my ride home from wherever I may be. THE PROBLEM I own a YETI Roadie 24qt, which I love and highly recommend, but it’s too big and bulky to lug around for only a few drinks, especially when I check into hotel rooms. It’s even worse when we’re traveling with the kids. A bulky cooler takes up the entire middle seat in my SUV. The kids can’t even let the center armrest down to hold their drinks. PROBLEM, ALMOST SOLVED So when I found out about the FrostVault concept, it was the standard 30qt, and I was almost sold on the wheeled version. I wish I had known about it before I purchased the YETI. However, I’m still in the same boat, solving one problem, but not the other. SOLUTION? The backpack seemed like the perfect solution. It seemed small enough to be a personal cooler, includes a separate compartment and I love the portability of it being a backpack. Though, when I’m traveling, nearly every bag can be carried as a backpack or via shoulder strap. I really wish there was total solution that addresses all the issues. FATAL FLAW I purchased this unit used (very good), so I thought it would be lightly used with no problems. However, the zipper was off track. Granted, if you purchase it new, you won’t have that issue. HOWEVER, if your zipper ever gets off track, it’s impossible (as far as I can tell and I’ve tried again and again) to get it back on track. I’m returning this unit, but because of this design flaw, I wouldn’t even buy a new one because I’ll always be fearful of the zipper “potentially” being kicked off track. Thus making the $200 unit unsealable, technically usable, but do you want a cooler that you can't close?

Well constructed, durable held up well to a recent beach trip. The upper compartment is ok, does not compare to a yeti. The lower compartment is what they say it is. It held our dry items cool for a very long time The upper compartment is better than your average cooler.

This arrived two days before our 10 hour road trip so I was really able to test it out and could not be happier!! I wanted something that would do exactly what this one does - with the separation of dry cold and wet cold items. It also doesn’t take up much space so we put it in the middle rear seat so it would be easy to get to the bottom for snacks throughout the drive. It keeps everything soooo nice and cold and is extremely sturdy and durable!! It looks nice and it comfortable to wear. The bottle opener came in hand when we needed to open bottled sodas. Anyway, I am so happy I came across this compact (yet roomy) backpack cooler!!
