I've got a 25L Icey-Tek and they really are fab! We use it for a week at a time without changing icepacks at all. They are expensive but work really well and are unbelievably sturdy - and I agree with you guys, it's really pretty in it's no-nonsense chunky way and there's definitely something about those big fat rubbery toggles! I don't expect to buy another coolbox ever, unless it's a bigger Icey-Tek.
Mine's orange (sorry Merry)
Oh Kitten, I'm so jealous! I like the way it co-ordinates os nicely with your rug.<G>
I'm torn between the orange and the yellow. They come in pink, too, but I'm not sure if they sell the pink ones in the UK. The site I found didn't have the full range of colours available.
Will it hold a bottle of wine? That's quite important! I can see there's no problem with fitting in the cheese, bacon, butter and milk.

Hehehe, I'm a bit of a magpie when it comes to colour! I've got a nice tasteful blue carpet now so the stripes will be relegated to the bedroom but they did the job and very cheaply too!
I didn't know you could get them in pink! I really had trouble deciding on which colour to get, I think they all look fab - in the end my OH decided for me and I do love the orange I was torn between the yellow, orange and green but I think I would be just as pleased with it whatever colour I'd got.
You can fit a bottle of wine in but not upright unfortunately - not a problem for us, once it's open it gets finished I much prefer the internal shape to the normal 24l coolboxes, it's wider and shorter so I think it's easier to pack and get to everything. Considering there's only 1l extra capacity compared to my old cheapy ASDA coolbox, I seem to fit an awful lot more into it. Makes a surprisingly comfy seat too
i was amazed at the size of the icey tek so do measure first! sizewise i think my friend reckoned that the bigger one isn't vastly bigger to carry, she's debating the bigger size - in green!

That was pretty much my thinking. I'm leaning more towards the green, too!
