Ice Packs - Reusable, Premium, Large Pack and Lunch Set for Long Term Use - Cools Faster Than Ice - Cooler Accessories

Bought these ice packs because i was looking for something have duty that would last when we go on road trips or when we have parties around the house that way we wouldnt have to keep buying ice. The packs work great and when used with a good cooler they have kept things cold for multiple days without having to refreeze them. These were a fraction of the price of name brand ones and have been worth every penny.

Let me start this review by stating a fact. YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER ICE PACK! We live in South Carolina and it gets pretty dang hot down in here in the summer. Heck, it gets pretty dang hot down here in the spring. I got tired of constantly buying ice every day when we go to the beach, lake, boating, camping…and we go a lot. I was determined to find the best ice alternative at a good price point and after reviewing a few products I decided to go with Cooler Shock. And I tell you right now, I am SO GLAD I DID! I bought the “original” foil Cooler Shock large 3 pack ice packs about 1.5 years ago. I loved them so much I bought another set, and then another…well, you get the point. I bought a lot. We have some for our soft side cooler for beer/water or whatever we’re drinking for the day. We have some for our large fishing cooler to keep our fish cold until we get back and can get home and get them cleaned. Well anyway, those were nothing short of amazing and were worth every penny I spent on them, but more importantly what I saved by not having to buy ice! Well, enough about those. I need to get to talking about what you came here to read about, the NEW and IMPROVED hard plastic Cooler Shock ice packs. I received the new hard packs on 10 July 19, filled them according to the instructions and placed them in the freezer. These new hard plastic ice packs feel and look like they are built to last. Unless you lose them or run over them with a tank, you will most likely have these packs forever. As with the foil packs, we plan to use these packs on the boat, at the beach, at the lake, camping, grocery store runs…the uses are limitless. I’ll give you a quick story about when we used our two hard packs in a Hopper 40 soft side cooler this past weekend. We took our boat out Saturday afternoon, 13 July, around noon and it was probably around 90 degrees outside. We had the cooler loaded with plenty of beer, water and Gatorade. I made what I call a drink sandwich. I put one ice pack on the bottom, add the drinks, then another ice pack on the top, and put drinks on the top pack. We fished well into the evening and got off the water at 1130 that night. We parked the boat at my cousin’s beach house and went back to our camper. The cooler stayed in the boat overnight. We unloaded the boat Sunday morning around 11:00 and put everything in the back of the truck. We headed for home, which is about 120 miles away, but stopped about halfway home for lunch and my wife did a little shopping. That put us at getting home 4:00-4:30 Sunday afternoon. I should have been surprised, but knowing how great Cooler Shock products are, I wasn’t. The few remaining bottles of water, Gatorade and one beer was still ice cold. The hard pack on the bottom was still half frozen but the one on top wasn’t frozen, but was still cold. I just can’t tell you enough or express how GREAT this product is. I have two hard packs for now, but that is about to change. I will be ordering another set or more in the VERY near future. So, after you read this, do yourself a HUGE favor and order yourself a set of three or more. YOU WILL NOT be disappointed. You will soon find out that ice is only needed for a glass of sweet tea and not a cooler. Cooler Shock is all you will ever need to keep everything nice and cold!! Feel free to ask any questions you may have about these AWESOME and AMAZING Cooler Shock hard packs. #NoMoreIce

I've been using reusable ice packs my whole life, but we recently got a bigger cooler, and I needed more to keep the bigger cooler appropriately cold when camping. I decided to give these a try, because they are big and wide enough that they would be easier to move around when I need to get into the cooler, than several smaller ones. They were very easy to fill and freeze, and I just took them camping this weekend. For those of you who are nerdy like us, we used a 65 quart Lifetime cooler, with a handful of other reusable ice packs. It was not hot where we camped, but the cooler definitely saw some sun. After three days on top of the food in the cooler, they were 36°F. I'm very pleased that the food stayed cooler than my fridge. I could probably have waited another day to unload the cooler without any spoilage.

Made a 10 hour trip from Kentucky to the OBX . Bought 8 large Ice Packs to keep frozen foods cold and cold goods cool for 24 hours. I used 3 types of coolers: ** all coolers were hauled in my open trailer but tarped for a 10 hr trip. Ave ambient temp was 80-90 partial sun / rain. 1- Medium size 5-day ice cooler ( used 2 packs for cold meats cheese ect) stayed cold 30 hours 1- Large size 5-7 day ice cooler ( used 2 packs for frozen foods) stayed cold 60 hours 1- XXXL Colman Older Cooler ( used 4 packs for cold bulk items fruits, veggies, milk, creamers, butter ect) 40 hours . Likes: the size, thinness & sturdiness stacks good in freezer like the B/I handles Can be used laying down to keep sandwiches, chips, cheeses, chips cool for 12 hours Used up right as drink divider like waters one side, teas on the other. Seems to keep drinks colder on edge for 24 hours. Dislikes: Does not keep items cold as Advertised to 48 hours. ( maybe never open the cooler once packed, but thats not realistic during a 48 hr period. Took the medium 5 day ice cooler daily to the beach loaded with beer & snacks with 2 packs every day. Only good for 6 hours. The thicker more brick looking ice packs last longer but bulky less storage. Result: thin is good for day trips on a boat , car trips or under an umbrella. Thicker other brands maybe better for direct sunlight hot summer days

I love these. Save me so much money on ice. Stay super cold for several days. Dont take up much room, and will even start to freeze things.

Wanted to get something cheaper but effective for my yeti. These for perfectly along the back wall, along with a couple of their smallest flexible ones they’re brilliant. Did some very unscientific experiments with my yeti, iceytek and different ice packs and these stayed cold much longer than my other packs. Work the order as nothing else similar in the UK

These cooler packs can be a bit fiddly to fill up with water; I used my own funnel. But they work well. As these freeze at 18F (-7C) I would not use them for keeping food cool, it is likely to freeze them. But they are great at keeping food frozen, when defrosting a freezer. I have used then to keep food below -10C for over 12 hours.

Come on Party outdoors

I have used cooler shock blocks for years... and this plastic format has various advantages over the cooler shock's mylar version of the same product. This blue plastic version is much gentler on your hands when handling the cold cooler pack. My complaint is how difficult it is to mix the water into the packs during set up, without causing a powdery non functional area of the cooler pack. Even after creating six of these packs I still didn't master the process. Essentially, you want to add water slowly and mix it up as you go... Keep the powder away from the handles... this is the number one most difficult spot to get the water into... almost all of my cooler packs have a dry powder section in the handles where I couldn't get the water to reach. Add a bit of water... then shake it up... add some water... shake it up... move the powder around... add some water... shake it up... until the pack is full. Finally squeeze it and hold it upright so all the air comes out the top... then quickly put the top on. Grab a friend for the last step so that you can squeeze the pack tight, while the friend screws on the top. Honestly, it might be better if the pack wasn't clear... because if I couldn't see that the pack wasn't mixed correctly, I wouldn't notice any difference and then it wouldn't bother me... Ignorance is bliss.

Fantastic temp retention. Keeps things very cold. Just ensure you follow the initial instructions. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
