It’s the walls filled with polyurethane foam as the insulator. It is a very good looking cooler, we really like the orange and dark grey colouring as it makes it look very smart.

So other than a 12v cool box which come with their own challenges like size and how to power, the only option for decent food when camping is a decent cool box.

The Coleman Xtreme coolers are different from the other cooler boxes available as they are insulated with Polyurethane insulation (PU). PU is a very dense and an excellent insulator, filling the entire internal cavity of the cooler, leaving no air gaps and so improving its insulating efficiency. The Yeti Tundra 45 comes in at that magical 45 litre mark, and is certainly one of the most impressive coolers on the market in terms of ruggedness and insulation – a shame it’s rather expensive. This is one to buy if you’re running a decent budget, and like to have the best – both in terms of brand, support and performance. 3 inches of Insulation There’s nothing quite like that first cup of tea or coffee in the morning on a camping trip.

Decathlon’s selection of camping mugs is made from plastic or hardwearing steel, while our camping kettles can be conveniently boiled on your camping stove. We’ve even got whistling camping kettles that will tell you when it’s ready for you to make your brew.Over the weekend we tried to minimise the amount of time we had the cooler open to help it stay cool for longer. We were very impressed to still be able to have cold milk almost 48 hours after we left home. Coleman Xtreme cool box review - The challenge of camping for more than a few days without an electric hookup (EHU) (especially with a family) is how to keep meals interesting, easy and cost effective. OK, so there are plenty of dry/tinned/jarred alternatives such as pasta, noodles, hotdogs, beans, sauces etc. and you can use UHT or powered milk. However, you will have to spend more on larger cool boxes. Furthermore, you should expect extra weight with a large-sized cool box – although weight is impacted by the material as well.

Built with premium insulation technology, the Coleman 28QT Xtreme Cooler can hold ice for several days to make it a perfect companion for overnight trips. With a 26 litre capacity, this cooler is smaller than the other options we’ve reviewed, and is more suited to short breaks for individuals or couples at the most. We consider 45 litres to be about the perfect amount of capacity for a passive cooler on a family camping trip. Any more than that, and you’ve used up alot of space in your car or camper for not much benefit because the temperature cannot stay cool forever. Any lower capacity and you can’t fit enough food or drink in it! When choosing the best cool box, you want to pay close attention to the insulation as well. Fillings such as those made from polyurethane offer a longer-lasting effect – which, in turn, allows the cool box to maintain low temperatures for longer.

Some of the features to look out for include beverage holders or wheels. If you opt for smaller or medium-sized cool boxes, go for one with a shoulder strap.

With a cool box or cool bag from Decathlon, you don’t have to worry about your salad, cold cuts or cheese sweating in the summer heat. As well as being well designed from an efficiency point of view it is a very stylish cooler box. I love the grey and orange colour scheme. Different cool boxes come with varying cooling capacities. For passive cool boxes, the cooling effect is prolonged as the size increases. Typically, cool boxes maintain their effect for about 12 to 100 hours. So, you certainly want to go for a large box with at least a 2-day cooling effect for overnight camping trips.
