Super lightweight!
My family loves this backpack style cooler. It is so unbelievably lightweight that I can pack it full of food and drinks without weighing myself down. The backpack straps make is so much easier to haul everything else we may need for a trip to the beach, picnic in the park or a hangout at the river. it is especially helpful when my 2 year old decides she needs to be carried back to the car at the end of the day.

Great Backpack Cooler
This is a well built piece of equipment. Only had it a few days, but I’d expect it to hold up. In general it’s a really nice backpack, and as a cooler it works well. This thing will have many uses, especially if you have kids.

Perfect Cooler Bag
We bought this as a beach/overnight camping bag and it's been awesome. The build is very sturdy, the design is fun and stylish and it keeps stuff really cool. The straps are comfortable for long walks or hikes with it and the compartmentalization is perfect. You can keep a solid amount of stuff up top above the cooler.

Very happy with my purchase
I bought this during memorial day, so it was on sale :) I've taken it camping to the river and out when I went golfing and I loved it. I would recommend it to anyone that hates warm beer haha. It's very comfortable to carry and I like the small pocket on the side. The compartment on the top is handy for anything you don't want getting cold or wet.If a few years down the road I need to purchase another cooler pack, I would totally get this one again.

Awesome Soft Cooler - Great Portability
Very pleased with this cooler. Initially we had buyers remorse because it was so expensive and we worried 'when are we going to use this?' But we've had this for over a year now and have used it a lot. It's great for biking to the beach or walking to the park, and if you fill it with ice it'll stay cold all day. It's been on two long camping/road trips as our secondary cooler for drinks. We didn't have ice for one of the trips, so we filled it with cold well water and dropped our drinks in - they were cold within the hour! Love that the lining is waterproof so that you can do just that. Also love the small pockets all over - very handy. They even included a chest strap to increase stability when carrying heavier loads - definitely no complaints.

Comfortable to carry and stays cold
We love this pack. It's super-comfortable to use on hikes and at the beach. Kept everything cold through a day of 98 degree heat. Definitely recommend.

Great for the Beach
We bought this to replace the heavy molded coolers and it knocked it out of the park. Much easier to carry and hold ice for the day in 95+ degree heat.

Questions
Was the performance of a black colored cooler evaluated when selecting the colors? Though I think black looks sharp, I am hesitant to buy the black color because of the tendency of the color black to attract heat. Does this color affect ice performance?
We have both the light blue and the grey/black one and haven't noticed a difference in either color in that regard.

Do any coolers in the Unbound series float if accidentally dropped in water? I'm sure these weren't built to constantly be submerged, but am wondering if this would instantly sink if it went overboard while paddle boarding. Thanks!
Thanks for reaching out!
I do apologize for the long response time. I do believe if the cooler is full the cooler will sink. If it is empty it may float, but I can not guarantee.

The zipper on my cooler is no longer working-the teeth do not close or in some spots they do but as soon as I poke it the zipper comes undone. Any suggestions or how to fix? We got it through expertvoice so dont think the warranty applies.
My zipper broke, I called Hydroflask customer service and they allowed me to ship back my cooler for a new replacement cooler and stated it didnt matter where I bought it.

In the video, you show ice in the cooler but on the tag attached to my cooler that was delivered yesterday it is recommended that you only use "ice packs". How will the cooler hold up to actual ice? I expect most people will use real ice vs packs.
Ice packs are recommended just to keep the cooler dryer, however, it will hold up fine with actual ice. Just like any cooler, you have to make sure it's dry before storing it.
