"Awesome & fits exactly perfect on my custom Gheenoe"
"Just used the cooler in my Gheenoe and paddled almost the entire Loxahatchee river while sitting on it. Kept our stuff cold, gave me a great seat (mounted on back bench, and looks great!as a native Floridian, it’s great to buy something from a Florida tan company! Looking forward to buying more of your products in the future!"
"Mine has the added benefit of added on rod holders by Engle. Can't wait to put it to use."
"Solid cooler. I bought it to be a seat on my paddle board. It hasn’t got there yet but it sure was great to carry prepared lobster home for a party at my house."
"Great box for shore fishing. Don't have to lay my rods in the sand/ rocks. Inside fits at least 4 3700 size tackle trays, although, without the included tray. Super light! . . . Very cool!"
"Perfect for small boat seat, storage plus holding rods"
"Fantastic “cooler” at this size it would be nice to have a drain plug …perfect fit for on & off the boat …tight lines !"
"The Engel 30qt cooler seemed like the best option available at the time of purchase, but it falls short in durability compared to the other models I’ve used. The insulation is practically nonexistent, resulting in minimal ice retention. The back latches are plastic instead of metal, which raises concerns about long-term reliability. Additionally, the overall plastic construction feels weaker than the 13qt model. While it serves its purpose for now, I don’t see it holding up the way my other Engel coolers have over time."
"I love your coolers! Especially the high vis orange with pole holders!! I haven’t forgotten that cooler once! Light weight and retains Ice for two/three days! Perfect for fishing and bait! Love it!"
"I got this bait cooler as a surprise for my wife. She loves it so much, and has already used it several times. Service was amazing. ! They did not offer the exact cooler package I wanted in the high viz. orange color, but they were so helpful in putting together all the part numbers for me to assemble the package in the color we wanted. Thank you, Engel!"
