MaelstromCooler Backpack - 35/50 Can Insulated Soft Cooler Lunch Bag for Camping, Beach, Hiking & Shopping

I have had this thing for months now and I am still find secret pockets in it i didn't realize I had. I love it. There is padding on the back so it is comfortable to wear (pocket there too btw) it is so useful for any occasion. Personally, it is my totem. I take it everywhere like a woman does her purse but functionally it works for storing perishables from the grocery store to backing a picnic to the park. YOu don't have to put perishable stuff in the insulated part so it is basically a backpack with lots of compartments. However, if you need that it is available. I take it to buy beer or to the grocery store and when I get home everything is still cold and ready for the fridge. I love it.

Great purchase! I was shopping the other big names (i.e. expensive) and saw the positive reviews for this much less expensive option and figured I’d give it a try as it had all the features I was looking for. I took it to the beach yesterday and loaded it with a bag (of already melting) ice and drinks. After 8 hours on a very hot beach day I still had some ice left at the end of the day and our drinks were still very cold. No leakage at all either. The backpack seems very well constructed and was comfortable. For a fraction of the cost of the well-known cooler backpacks, this is an absolute buy. I rarely write reviews, but was so impressed by this cooler (and thrilled with the extra $100+ I didn’t spend) that I had to spread the word.

Great for toting cold drinks to the beach...if you have a strong back! It held 36 beers and enough ice to keep them cold all day at the beach. But it was heavy! I was worried the straps wouldn't be able to handle the weight but no issues at all. Side pockets hold plenty of sun screen and towel stayed secure in bungee string. Loaded the backpack everyday for a week and couldn't be happier with it! Highly recommend this if you're in the market for a backpack cooler!

As I will be using this for travel as well, I purchased in orange for better visibility. The material seems to be very sturdy and the color is great. The curved zipper on the front pouch seems to catch a little and I noticed the fabric on the zipper is bent a little right on the pocket curve. When I tried unfolding it, it seemed to catch more. The zipper still operates and I'm traveling before a replacement would arrive, so I'm hoping after several uses it will compress the fold and glide more easily. I was unable to register it for the extended 2 year warranty as the "submit" didn't work. I've emailed them to advise and will update if/when I hear from them, and of how well it worked after I've used it a few times.

Took this bag on a canoe trip, ended up flipping the canoe and everything inside the bag stayed dry!! It’s a little bit on the bulky side but stays insulated very well! It has lots of compartments and was great for our trip. I would definitely repurchase!

35 cans seems a little aggressive but seems like good quality and size. Next size up would be to big.Like the extra storage areas. Plenty of room for my koozies and snacks. Would recommend this but honestly, 35 seems like a reach. I am sure you could have them in but will need room for ice and or ice packs.

This cooler has paid for itself tenfold! This came in so handy for hiking through the sand to our spot on the beach. It fit all our drinks and lunch items with ease. We used ice packs instead of actual ice so we wouldn’t have to deal with a melted mess and our food/drinks stayed nice and cold. Great insulation. Also used it on a boat outing with the same results. Super functional. Highly recommend!

I love this cooler. I do not own a car, so I ride the city bus. When I go shopping, this cooler keeps all of my cold items cold. Is also very comfortable and wearable. For me, this was a great purchase.
