Monster Cooler

This is a great product. It's extremely versatile. All claims made for it in the title and description elsewhere on the page are accurate. Other positive reviews, and videos in reviews and those below the title, make that clear. The negative reviews are not accurate. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but it's unfortunate that some are formed without time or ability to carefully read descriptions, instructions, examine products, and/or check with the manufacturer about questions or issues. I'll digress briefly to provide context, then on to product details. I've been an Amazon customer for many years and have a long background in information technology and various mechanical disciplines. My opinions are not entitled more than others, but they may be more informed. In my experience, when all reviews are positive, it's a no-brainer. When all are negative, one might be cautious, examine the specifics, and do independent research if the product seemed desirable. When they're split, typically the positive ones are accurate, because people don't imagine positive information/experiences, and the negative ones are the result of misunderstandings or lack of time or ability to understand or failure to follow instructions. I'm reminded of a review complaining that Twig tea (kukicha) purchased had too many twigs in it. Twig tea is for the most part all twigs and should be. Come on it's in the name!! Believe it or not this is not the worst I've come across. Also for some reason sometimes reviews of other products appear on the product page of the given product. Having said that, please note that some information about the Monster Cooler is a little obscure on the Amazon product page. The photos with "inserts" don't clearly reflect the detail intended. For those who think it can't be used with cans, pay attention to the videos and look carefully at the one photo in the description that has a cross section of various applications. It took me a while to notice that the one with a can shows the top part of the Monster Cooler turned upside down and inserted it into the bottom part. Until then I thought I was missing a part. After doing that, you'll see the "fins" referenced in the photo with "inserts". This allows the use of different can sizes. For those who were not able to fit an ordinary soda bottle of a particular brand please note that another user even was able to use a square bottle. Sometimes a little extra force is needed which is not a problem because the EVA foam from which it is made is flexible and very durable. I found looking up and reading about the characteristics of EVA foam helpful. The room temperature in my house is colder than most, and EVA foam is more flexible when warm. This is the only cooler that I've found that works with a GT's kombucha 16 oz bottle, but some force was needed. This would probably solve the problem of the person with the Pepsi bottle. For those who don't feel it kept their drink cold enough or didn't cool their drink, remember it's called a cooler but, like many others called coolers, it's really an insulator. This can be solved by placing a small frozen item like a small gel pack, or water in a small plastic bag, etc. in the bottom before inserting a can or bottle. The flexibility of the design makes that possible, making it an actual cooler as well as an even more effective insulator. It kept mine cold without that, but remember my room temperature is colder than most. The only "con" is that it is a little pricey, but worth it for the versatility, especially if the typical cooler isn't doing the job for you, or you need to use it with a variety of bottles and cans. I'll be buying a second one soon, to keep more than one drink cold at the same time. On the manufacturer's website there are better pictures, instructions and videos, and the manufacturer's contact information including a phone number. I got a very prompt call back, with a positive response to my question, after leaving a voicemail. If I name the website Amazon may censor it, if they see it as an operational link. So enter the following without the spaces the monster cooler followed by normal dot com, using the punctuation mark of course. I have other suggestions, but don't want to be misunderstood and cause anyone a problem. If interested or in case anything I wrote wasn't clear, you can send me a direct message at ralphvetteman on x. That's also the case for the person who wasn't able to fit a hand around the cooler to lift it and drink.

The product isn’t really what I imagined it to be but it’s functional decent quality :) Kinda mad that the package wasn’t packed properly the first time and the item was missing out of a combination package. Ordered the blue one the first time. It was missing out of my package… I had to order a second one with the refund Amazon offered. But only colour that would suit who I was buying it for was white.. so kinda miffed about that. Other than that. Pretty good grip to it. I don’t think it’s worth 20 bucks though. I’d pay $10 - $12 if I were to buy something like this again. Pretty thick so it’s good at keeping the drink cold. Interesting design not what I expected Not great value for the price but good enough. Will add photos later

I bought this because the Kirkland 16.9oz water bottles I buy in bulk are always warped on the bottom. This keeps them standing upright and they stay cool from the fridge for about 6 hours, which frankly was more than I expected. It also keeps condensation off my coasters. Work for any size bottle of beverages or cans. I even purchased a case of Japanese soda for my kids to try and the odd shape fit just fine in here. Yes, it’s a pricey item at $20. But do you know what’s pricier? A new laptop after your 40 cent bottle of water topples over. Think on that.

This does keep whatever fits in it cool. However, it doesn't really fit all bottles - A&W Root Bear/Cream Soda 20oz bottles do not fit, it had trouble with Mt Dew bottles. And if you have small hands this is really bulky and hard to hold. It pretty much sits in my cabinet.

WHAT IS SO BAD IN YOUR LIFE TO LEAVE A 1 STAR 🌟REVIEW ON A COOLER. This two-piece snuggly is a great invention. I couldn't find anything that would fit a square bottle securely, and keep it cold like this one does. Some say its to tight ( you want it loose ) ? Or doesn't keep any cold are you putting it in the hot 🔆 sun inside your car? If your upset about something in your life don't trash the best bottle snuggie that's ever been invented. I absolutely love this thing and I can see it lasting forever. It's that well made people rely on reviews and should be honest about them I'm glad I didn't believe them and ordered this one knowing if I didn't like it Amazon would refund my purchase but I won't be sending this back I'll be ordering another one in case I loose this one. It really is that nice so I don't know what these people leaving one star reviews were looking for because this one really does fit any size bottle and keeps it cold for every sip. I'm glad I ordered it and will be ordering another one and for those that left a one star reviews get some help you wont find it in a bottle.
