Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought the 16 qt and the 7 qt to compare and to replace a Stanley Classic lunch box that broke. The pictures show the 16 qt one compared to the 7 qt. These handles have almost no upright retention. If you have a full thermos on top and a light cooler, the cooler can/will flip on you. Not the end of the world, but, come on... (This is a Stanley problem across three current lunchbox/coolers that I've owned). The 16 qt cooler is huge. It can easily hold 3 soda cans, 2 regular sized ice packs, and two full sets of Stanley nesting food containers. It's big enough to be kind of awkward to carry. BUT, if you work 10 hours outside and aren't near a place to grab extra food or drink, then this is the one for you. Update: I kept the 7 qt and sent back the 16 qt. It's been a few months now and the handle issue hasn't changed. I've been using velcro to strap the thermos handle to the cooler handle to prevent the cooler from flipping while I'm carrying it. Good cooler otherwise. Also, the Yeti Rambler 36 oz (best insulated water bottle I've ever owned) fits perfectly on the 7 qt. I can also fit 2 of the smaller white ice packs and 5 bottles of Soylent in the 7 qt. If I use 2 white ice packs, everything stays pretty cold. When I use 3 of them, everything is really cold. It's a big difference. Usually this cooler sits outside in the heat, but out of direct sunlight. The inside is easy to clean. Wash and air dry. The seal on the cover seems to be pretty good. The snap locks on the front work very well. I've never had the lid flip open on me unexpectedly.
