8QT Personal Cooler & Dry Box

I was tired of the “soft” lunch boxes being damaged by a sharp edge or ice pack, and sweating on the bottom. Looked at several hard lunch boxes but most were either very expensive or too large/small. Also needed one that would separate a sandwich from the ice in the bottom and have another storage space for salt/pepper/fork, etc. Finally took a chance on this one because of the brand name and all of the features. Hit the jackpot. This has everything I wanted, well constructed, tight tolerances, keeps food cold all day, easy to carry and in a pinch works as a step or a seat for a 200 lbs person. The lid latch is a stoke of genius. Latches tight, opening latch is positioned so it cannot “pop” open accidentally, yet easily accessible when you want to open it. Great carrying handle that is readily stored out of the way. This lunch sets the gold standard for others to “try” and reach.

This was bought for my husbands daily lunches. This has been one of the most sturdiest lunchboxes he’s ever purchased. Perfect size for lunch and snacks and water jug. The top compartment is convenient for papers and items he carries everyday. The only thing he would have liked different is the ice pack is super thin. While it keeps his food cold most days, it could be a little thicker to last longer during the summer.

Ordered this for my husband’s Christmas present since he was starting a new job. It is lightweight , the color was exactly like the picture. He is enjoying it as far as better my duriabke to take into the th paper mill

Good, but still too short for a 20oz bottle to stand upright.

I purchased 2 of these coolers, one through Amazon and one elsewhere. They work great if you are not on an extended trip where you need a larger cooler. Perfect for day trips, keeping groceries cold if you're not going home right away and a short weekend stay at a hotel. There is a top button that you push on the upper section of the cooler and it turns out to be a hideaway section separate from the cooler section where you can store napkins and plastic silverware.

Nice cooler . Smaller than expected. Food and drinks didnt stay cold after a 4 hours with the ice pack that it came with and another ice pack in the bottom. . Dont expect this to keep anything cold for more than a couple hours

Husband love it!!

Very durable and keeps cool for a long time.

8qt version. Perfect lunch box. Will stay cold for two solid days with the built in cold slab and a couple of slim ice gel packs. Perfect size for fitting into a work duffel bag, solid as a rock, will last decades. Best lunch box I’ve ever had. Good volume inside even with extra cold packs. Perfect for enough food for a 12+hour work shift.

It is a money value product , good quality as expected.

Pelican have a reputation for building robust, functional products and this cooler is no exception. It's price reflects it's build quality and I was very happy when I unboxed it.

Bouncing around this earth with this brute on the end of my meat slinky for a year maybe, nice unit. One year old regular use and the wear on it is the handle doesnt hold itself upright anymore, there are a few scratches from when I was learning to drive and the label is finally starting to peel but only a corner. Cold all day, included cold pak is great. Eight cans and a half bag of ice-youre welcome. Not waterproof if tipped or used on bear defense.

Doesn't keep cold
