Video Transcript for Review of AO Coolers Coolers - Carbon Series Cooler Bag Black 24 Cans - AC68FR

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today we're gonna take a look at this AO Coolers Carbon Series Cooler Bag in black. Now, this durable travel cooler is going to keep your drinks and snacks cold on your next outdoor adventure. It is designed to hold up to 24 12 ounce cans and 14 pounds of ice, and it's going to maintain that ice for up to 24 hours, up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Now this cooler bag has a wide mouth that's going to make it very easy to load and locate the items that you have in this bag. And so you can see just how spacious the inside of this bag is. And this has a one piece TPU liner that is leakproof, and it's going to resist punctures.

It does feel very durable and relatively thick, so I do think it's going to do a great job of resisting punctures. And as you can see it can be pulled inside out to dry after every use. And that's something I would recommend doing is after you're done using this and you have it all emptied out, just pull out this interior here to allow it to dry out before you put it into storage, so you don't have to worry about any mustiness or anything like that. And this has a 3/4 of an inch thick polyurethane high density closed cell foam that's in between the inside of the bag and the outside of the bag. So that's going to prevent air from entering the cooler, and you can feel that insulation all the way throughout this bag.

So it's thick, and it's very consistent, and it's gonna do a great job of keeping your items inside of this bag nice and cool. By the way, AO Coolers actually guarantees that this cooler will never leak or sweat. So that's a nice feature of this bag. Now, this is designed, actually the way that this is designed to be used is you fill this up with your beverages, your food, and your ice, and then you just zip it closed. And this zipper is a YKK zipper, so it's a name brand zipper.

It's known for its durability and ruggedness, and you get two zipper pulls here for convenience. So fill it up, zip it closed, and then you will then pull down the corners on each side and buckle them. So I'm gonna start with this side. Just pull down the top corner and then buckle the buckle. And then on this end, pull down the corner and buckle the buckle.

And as you can see, it has changed the shape of this bag. Now, when you have items in this bag, the sides will fill out here obviously, but it makes this into more of a cube shape to allow this bag to be more easily carried and easily stored, as well, when you're transporting it. So as you can see, it does significantly change the size of this bag. I also wanted to point out that it has a side zipper pocket. Let me find my zipper here. Here it is. And so this can be easily accessed, and you can put in napkins, utensils, and even put in the shoulder strap when you're not using it to keep it easily accessible. Now, the exterior is very rugged and very durable. I'm really impressed with the build quality of this cooler bag. It's made of a vinyl coated fabric with a carbon fiber imprint, which is widely used in both RVs and marine industries. So this is going to match perfectly the interior of many boats and side by sides. And the handles are durable as well. They're webbed handles, and as you can see, it does include this enclosure to keep the handles together, making it easier to carry. Did I mention the shoulder strap The shoulder strap is included. With this padded section here, it's going to allow for easy transportation. I just wanna throw this on my shoulder like that. So very convenient to carry, very easy to transport. And you can also easily remove the shoulder strap as well. These clips are pretty durable. So as you can see, very easy to remove. And while we're here, I wanted to speak about these four attachment points that are here. You have two on this side, two on the other. So obviously it's available, those are gonna be great for your shoulder strap. But also you can use these with tie down hooks or tie down points for like when you're in your boat, or in the back of a truck or something like that. You can tie it down, and it's gonna keep it from moving around or potentially flying outta your vehicle or your boat, so that's gonna keep it very secure. Now, once you're ready to store this, I think this is going to be relatively easy to store. It is durable, but it's also flexible. So you could fold this down, and it'll take up less room in storage when you are ready to put it away. Now, just to give you an idea of the size, the overall exterior dimensions, beginning with the width at the widest point, and again, keep in mind this is empty, we're sitting about 24 inches wide. And then the overall length, or depth, however you'd like to identify that measurement, we're sitting at about eight inches. And then the overall height from top to bottom, we're sitting at about 15 inches. And again, this has a volume of 24 quarts. And this weighs a little over three pounds, so when it's empty, it's pretty lightweight. And this does have a limited lifetime warranty. So again, this is in black, but if you're looking for a different color, we do also offer this in silver. And on your screen, I am including our item number to the silver version of this cooler bag. And if you're interested in checking that out, just take that item number and put it in the search field of our website, and it will take you to that silver option. So overall, if this meets the specs that you are looking for, I think this is going to be a great cooler bag for you to consider. Again, it's going to be very durable, very rugged, and I like the fact that it's going to keep your ice in good condition for up to 24 hours, and you're gonna have quite a bit of room as well. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
