Just to drag this thread back to its original topic, I finally got to use the Igloo MaxCold 70 Roller in anger this week and thought I would report on its efficacy for any of you who are still wondering whether/whst to buy.
We were away for three nights. I chilled it for over 24 hours with ice, draining any melt-water, and then left the remainder of the ice in the bottom, added four gel-blocks, the chilled food and then put four frozen 1 litre mineral water bottles (the square-based prism ones) on top to create a blanket of cool air.
Over 110 hours later, the box having been accessed fairly frequently each day and without us being particualarly careful or paranoid about opening it, etc., there is still some ice left in each of the bottles and the contents were all suitably chilled.
In other words, I think that you can buy with confidence.
