Review Summary

Here's what customers have to say
The soft-sided cooler is well-made and durable, keeping contents cold for a long time. The flip-top design makes it easy to access, and the size is suitable for day trips and outdoor activities. Customers appreciate its lightweight yet sturdy construction and the waterproof zipper. However, some found the zipper difficult to operate, and the cooler may tip over when carried by the shoulder strap. Overall, it is an outstanding soft cooler that meets expectations for quality and performance.

Zipper is not usable
The zipper is ridiculously difficult to move. My wife cannot open it, and I applied the lube a couple times. That must be addressed. I saw similar reviews, but ignored them.

Bomb proof and amazing performance.
Love this cooler. It is super durable and keeps contents cold for a surprisingly long time. This size is perfect for me for day trips paddling the river. It's big enough to hold everything I need but small enough that it's not in the way on the paddleboard. Plus all the rigging points give plenty of options for securing it down and hooking things to it.

Great Addition to the Collection
We already own the Hopper backpack and Hopper 18. Both great, but we needed something smaller for trips that didn't require as much storage. The 8 was too small, but the 12 is perfect!
