Esky 50L Arctic Pro Rugged Cooler With Accessory Pack
5 reviews
Not a good product – I purchased this item from Bunnings. On the label it claims "Holds Ice for up to 7 days". This claim is totally false. Even in moderate ambient temperatures a bag of ice in there barely lasts 24 hours. It also started leaking from the drain. I have now read the many bad reviews for this product and have returned it to Bunnings for a refund. The product is not fit for purpose.
Purchased in at Bunnings Warehouse for $249.
Great esky – We used this to go camping in January. It was around 30 degrees for the week we were there. I had put blocks of ice at the bottom and had my food on top with bagged ice. The blocks made it to the end of the time we were there, albeit a lot smaller. We did have to buy a couple of bags to top up. Have used it again this past weekend since having no power. Used 2 bags of ice (unopened) and majority of the bags were still frozen 2 days later, granted it was much colder. It fairs much better than our smaller Dometic esky so overall, happy with our purchase.
Purchased in at Bunnings Warehouse Retail Stores for $199.
The best esky all around for me – As far as eskies go, this one suits my needs perfectly, looks good, rugged, holds cold well. Not too big for casual use. The basket and ice pack are handy additions. Having said that, remember it’s horses for courses. I use it for shopping mostly keeping ice cream frozen and drinks and meats cold on the 30 minute drive back from the supermarket in the Queensland heat. I’m not using it for fishing trips in the never never. I take it camping and buy a new bag of ice as needed. I’m sure it does keep ice for up to 7 days in the right conditions, but don’t expect 7 day ice under normal conditions, especially in summer. Even my old heavy duty techno ice cooler didn’t do that. Show me an esky that does and I will remark that it is the first time I’ve seen an esky live up to that particular claim. Manage your expectations and this is an excellent product. In fact I just bought a replacement for my original one.
Purchased in for $200.
Ice melted within 24 hours – This esky is a rip off. Purchased from Bunnings and ice melted in 24 hours. I do not recommend. I will be trying to get my money back as it is advertised incorrectly
Purchased in for $200.
Do not believe the claim of "Keeps Ice for 7 days"... it's simply not true! – Purchased bunnings 23/12/2020. 10KG of ice in at 8pm - opened it at midday 24/12/2020 and ice was melted! $200 is a ripoff - false claim. inside house at 25degrees. Got refund
