Anyone have one of these? I’ve seen them advertised and have been looking for a new cooler for the beach or around the pool. I looked on their website and saw a Mississippi state one. Not very expensive but still don’t want to spend the money if this is a complete dud. Reviews online are all over the place.

Interested in reviews as well.

Regardless, Father's Day is around the corner. We've all got worse gifts even if it is a dud.

I’ve got one. It’s not a cooler it’s a cold bag. No provision for ice because the whole end zips out and the zipper leaks if you use ice. I found a storage tub the exact size that fits in it and I can now ice beer down but it’s still poor insulation compared to an actual cooler. It’ll hold a twelve pack as a cold bag. With the tub it’ll hold 6-8 beers plus ice. I do like the magnetic lid , it’s convenient to reach in. I wouldn’t buy another one. My favorite cooler is the Engle 13qt dry box, add a few MSU stickers and you’ll be much happier.

I’ve had one for years. I love it. They didn’t have a miss state one when I ordered so I just got a good ole merica one. It does a decent job. Worth the money for sure.

My neighbor has a Kanga, he found a couple of freezable can shaped ice block things, so put the 12 pack in and pull two beers out and put in the frozen can things and it is sufficient for a couple hours.

I have the MS one.
Put 8-9 beers in, half a bag of ice and put it in the golf cart basket and it’s sufficient for 18 holes of golf.
I like the side magnetic flap.
