This food carrier is a wonderful product – designed to hold a wealth of food for any length of time and promising to keep food hot or cold no matter the weather. This ice cream cooler bag would be a wonderful way to take homemade ice cream to the park on a sunny day!
Arctic Zone Food Carrier Review
The Good
- The Aesthetic
We really like the look of this ice cream cooler bag product! The teal color itself is something really pretty, but on top of that, the actual styling of the product is fashionable and pretty too. We really like the brown zipper/teal lid/grey base combination – it feels really on-trend at the moment.
- The Size
The size of this food carrier is absolutely wonderful: it seems able to carry a whole host of things with no trouble at all! The base of the unit is able to hold a standard-sized casserole dish, while the top has a zipper pocket that can hold any number of things, from paper plates to utensils.
- The Utility
A lot of insulated products are designed to solely be good at keeping food hot or cold, while not really doing much to be useful for you. We love that this has a really convenient handle, as well as a firm outer case that would be perfect for preventing breakages in the event that the product is dropped with things inside it.
The Bad
- The Price
The price of this item is nearly sixty dollars. While that might not sound like a lot for a piece of high-quality homeware, it certainly feels like a lot, when you think about how non-versatile this product is. For sixty dollars, we would want to be able to use this product in more ways than one!
- The Shape
The shape of the product is a little annoying. It’s designed to hold a number of flat things but trying to fit in things that are rounded or too thick will prove difficult. The rigid outer case would make squeezing it shut tricky, which is annoying when trying to carry several different things.
- Difficulty Cleaning
The outer material of the case is fabric. This is perfectly fine for things like rain, but when you’re carrying food around, the surface ought to be wiped clean. A fabric shell could be tricky to clean if you spilled some ice cream on it, which could result in an expensive product being permanently stained.
The Verdict
Overall, this ice cream cooler bag is a product that we would like as a gift, but we wouldn’t buy for ourselves. While there’s no denying that there are certainly use cases for which it would be perfect, it is also too rigid and inflexible to be truly applicable to someone’s day-to-day life.
If you can see yourself using this (very aesthetically pleasing) item in your life, then we have no doubt that it would be perfect for you. However, just think about what you’re likely to be putting in it and consider how well it may fit your needs.
