Ensign Peak Extra Large Insulated Cooler Bag

Took some studying to find a bag large enough to keep all my supermarket perishables cold while returning home from the store down here in very hot South FLA. This one was a good pick. I'm sure it will be a functional beach bag for food & drink as well.If I had to make any suggestions to improve it, I would like a sturdier bottom to the bag, and I would like the bag to be just a bit larger. My prior bag, which finally gave out, was one purchased from QVC - it was perfect. I don't believe it's sold there anymore - it was years old. As a substitute, this one is fine, and particuarly for the money paid.I would recommend it.

In this cooler bag I put 8 live lobsters from Chatham, Cape Cod and wtih cold pack bags at 1400 (2 pm) on a Sunday - I took the bus to Logan Airport, Boston and carried the cooler bag as a carry on item into an airplane to Zurich and then to Venice, Italy. No fuss from the airline, Homeland Security or Swiss customs - zero. I arrived in Venice at 1400 ( 2 pm) In each plane I put the bag in the overhead storage. In Venice at 1500 (3 pm) I put the cooler bag in a rented car and drove to Motovun Croatia - abut 3 hour if you do not get lost. I arrived in Motovun in 4 hours at 1900 ( 7 pm). I opened the bag in the kitchen of the famous Mondo Restauraant (Truffles a specialty) and all the lobsters were as alive as they were when I left Chatham. By 2100 (9pm) they were being prepared.After 31 hours in transit the lobsters were served and enjoyed by all.

Took this cooler on a 10,000 mile road trip. We used frozen water bottles to keep the cooler cold, and stored baby food items including milk and cheeses in it. The cooler is very insulated and even 2 days later of no refrigeration, water was frozen and dairy items were cold!!! awesome performance for such a reasonably priced item. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the shape or structure of the cooler. It is not as rigid as other similar coolers I have had in the past. Therefore the sides require some maneuvering to close the zippers when full. But this is a minor point. Otherwise it is a great item.

I ark 12 hour shifts and most bags are small or the backpack type have a much smaller opening at the top limiting the size container you can put in the bag. This is larger and you can put large food trays and various items without restrictions. Also has a zippered pocket in front that will hold a tablet and other non-food items. Not a high quality bag, especially for the price. Could have had more insulation and maybe a hard plastic bottom.

I am very pleased with this cooler bag. My husband runs a dozer for 12 hours a day and needed something to carry his drinks and lunch in that was sturdy. This bag has plenty of room for his 4 sodas (24 oz ones), a water, an icepack, snacks and his lunch with room to spare. Also, the pocket on the front is perfect for his wallet, phone, notebook, pens, etc. It holds alot. He especially likes that it has a shoulder strap as well as a handle, putting it over his shoulder makes it easier to climb up onto the dozer (which is as big as a house). The bags we have tried in the past always ripped at the seams or by the zipper. He has been using this bag for a few months now and I am very pleased to say it is very sturdy and well made and I would highly recommend it.

The first thing I noticed when this bag arrived was that it was sewn together poorly with tons of threads sticking out everywhere. I spent several minutes cutting all the loose ends so they didn't snag and pull the bag apart.The bag itself is very large, and kept the food cold for an appropriate amount of time. It'll do it's job- though it won't blow you away.It carries a lot, it's inexpensive, and it works.Worth the price? Sure.

It arrived on time and in good condition. I loved the lime color. But I thought it had a hard shell inside and it didn't. Could have been my fault for assuming. I bought it to put my cold and frozen food in after grocery shopping. But keeps collapsing as I'me trying to get my food inside and I have to go straight home from the store because the food won't last any longer in the heated car,

It's OK.Pros: Large. Handles or shoulder strap. Cheap.Cons: Not much insulation. Mediocre durability. Liner wore out over the course of about a year - basically just a thin plastic sheet. Fabric ripped on the outside where the handle attaches to the cooler.Finally just threw it out after about two years of use since it basically just became a somewhat plastic lined tote bag with a few holes in the fabric.

Cheap looking haven't used it

Arrived promptly and was exactly as pictured so met my expecations

They do not hold cold too well, but that is standard with the cloth bags and not the sturdy coolers. However I had one style which I love and can no longer find, which also had a plastic fitted removable inlay and extra double pockets at front. It was also about 7" longer and 3" wider, basically what I had in one I now had to split in two bags which is a headache if you have to carry bags some distance to the beach.otherwise the are fine in hot or cold weather to get the groceries intact from store home.

Spacious but not rugged. Thin insulation and average-quality zippers.

This product is very poorly made. Fabrics inside and outside are very light. Insulation is very thin. The stitching on the zipper failed after the first use.
