Engel Cooler/Dry Box 13 Qt - White

These 13qt little coolers are pretty awesome. I’ve been through a few little playmates and small igloos over the years. I’ve always hesitated to spend the money required to get a decent lunchbox. Had I realized how sturdy and well made these were. I would have had no hesitation. That said, I only pulled the trigger on it because the color I got. Had a $20 less price tag for whatever reason. I wasn’t sure I would like the color. I get a lot of favorable feedback on the color. Everyone always says “you won’t lose that”. Storage capacity is perfect for my needs. I take the large Yeti cup for coffee everyday. It totally fits with lots of extra space at the end of the day. The provided shoulder strap is great. I use that most every time so I can carry other stuff in my hands. I thought it would be heavier, not at all cumbersome. I throw one of those reusable ice blocks in and it keeps everything cold for the day. Hell, I know it would hold at least a 12 pack of beer with plenty of ice if needed. Seems to seal well. Fits in my locker at work. It really doesn’t seem to take up much room in the front seat of my truck. Came with several Engel decals and all. I happened to know a fellow with that last name and gave them to him. There are a lot of folks at work have the 13 qt or even have the 19 qt. They have had them for years. I hope this little guy gets me to retirement. Less than 10 years, for the price it should. If y’all decide to get one. I think you will be able to buy with confidence. I have had no dealings with their customer service or anything. Can’t comment on any of that. Enjoy and thank y’all for reading this.

Das Design erinnert ein bisschen an 50/60er Jahre Ikonen. Anders, erfrischend und nicht kitschig. Die Qualität überzeugt mit Edelstahl Applikationen und einer stabilen und effektiven Isolierung. Die 13qt Größe reicht auch für liegende Weinflaschen und 1 Liter Wasserflaschen. Bei einem Test über 24 Stunden, bei dem drei Packungen Gratin (nicht gefroren), eine 0,33 Liter Flasche Bier sowie vier Kühlakkus und ein Termometer eingelegt wurden und die Box bei Raumtemperatur stand, wurde kein Verlust verzeichnet. D.h. die Box kühlt effektiv über mindestens 24 Stunden. Da die Akkus bereits die meiste Energie verloren haben, kann man davon ausgehen, dass die Temperatur nach 24 Stunden anfängt zu steigen. Warum wir nicht länger getestet haben lag daran, dass die meisten Anwendungen innerhalb 24 Stunden geschehen und oft innerhalb von acht Stunden. Somit ist diese Box völlig ausreichend und stellt ein Produkt dar, was man aufgrund des Designs und der Qualität empfehlen könnte.

Great product. Great value. Perfect size. Stays cold. Love the colors.

It fits quite a bit, not as much as the large under armour - but with the ua, it got bulky and I couldn’t stand the floppy lid, and the crappy zippers. I wanted a cooler that sits upright nicely, that I could “pop” open easily while driving, without having to try to unzip it. This cooler is the right size, good latches and handle, and the strap is great. I stuck a bunch of stickers on it to personalize it more. Sorry, I’m not using it to keep food cold or use ice, because I have a fridge at work, I just use this as a lunch box. But ENGEL is Australian and has been around a long time, and makes very good products so I’m sure it works very well at keeping items cold. It also comes with a plastic insert to keep sandwiches off your ice.

Ich habe die Kühlbox den ganzen Tag im Auto und bin ca. 10 - 12 Stunden unterwegs. Die Box hält wunderbar kühl. Selbst nach langen Fahrten.. Sie ist den Preis auf jeden Fall wert.
