Engel 13 Quart Dry Box Cooler UC 13

Love it....I take it everywhere and when kayaking down the American river

I purchased two of the Engle 13 qt and used them for dry boxes for a multi-day whitewater rafting trip and they kept everything dry. Great product!

I use it as a lunch box it does a great job keeping drinks cold but doesnt keep ice very well , unless you constantly keep ice in it and the hanging needs to be a lil deeper , but overall it does the job very well

Just what I need for work

I only rate it 4 stars because I have nothing to compare it with. It does a fine job for what it does. Keeps things cold after sitting in a hot car for all day. I've started using reusable ice packs, a great way to keep things dry, also. I did attach a nice comfortable shoulder pad to the strap.

Got the 13qt for my parents who like to spend the weekend putzing around on a pontoon. Obviously if you're headed to Moab and need to hold ice for 72+ hours in the sun this isn't what you want but it is indeed a spectacular day cooler with good solid parts. Doubles as a nice seat.

Does what it should.Would have gave it five stars if it had been made in the states.

Exactly what I was expecting, or better even. I had been looking for a cheaper alternative to the very expensive extreme coolers on the market. This cooler met my expectations and even more. Complete lid seal, hard body, stainless steel latches, and came in the size I wanted. All the other expensive brands did not come in any size smaller than 20qt. The 13qt is perfect weight and size for the luggage rack on my Harley Road Glide Ultra tour pack. I like the stainless steel latches much better than the rubber(?) latches which I always thought were kinda chintzy for a cooler that costs hundreds of dollars. The small tray in it was more sturdy than I expected as well. This cooler is well worth the price.

Great cooler! Does it's job and makes a great seat! The tray it comes with is helpful in keeping my things organized. Very happy with my purchase and with the fast shipping!

Sturdy, well made. Latches apparently are stainless steel or the salt water from kayak fishing the ICW would've corroded them by now. Fits a Hurricane kayak with 1/2" to spare side to side. Wish it was a little taller to give it more capacity. Ice will melt in a day out in the summer sun, but quite an insulating improvement over the Igloo playmate it replaced.

Engel 13 at cooler, great lil cooler/dry box, use it daily!!

Just what I needed in a smaller cooler for one of my kayaks, not taking up much space. Kept drinks cold all day on the day trip. The next day used it as a dry box. Very versatile, then used it packing a few cold ones to carry over to neighbors campsite.

I bought this for use mainly in my kayak and it works great.. I only do day trips and everything stays very cold..Very solid and appears to seal very tightly.

Engel 13 perfect for kayak, much better size than the lunch box size. Keeps drinks cold all day for me. I will see in July and august

Excellent cooler, perfect for kayaking and fishing. Two frozen water bottles keeps everything cold for up tob12 hours in the sun on the back of my kayak. In the shade, hours turn into days. Light weight, and the shoulder strap is an excellent addition. Great alternative to a Yeti, for a third of the price or less.

I love the 13qt cooler its perfect size.

Bought as a gift for my construction worker/kayaker husband, which means it gets used every week day for lunches and every weekend for beers/dry box. Definitely recommend!

Great Engle Cooler. 13 is perfect for daily lunch, everybody uses it here. First rate construction. Austin Kayak is a great store to work with, quick shipping.

Works great, and it fit perfect in the back of my Old town vapor 10

Love my engel cooler/dry box. Makes a great lunchbox during the week and drybox for boosting on the wknd. If you need outstanding ice retention get a yeti or orca, but for a dry box/average cooler, you cant beat it.

Cooler looks good. Love the latches, but WILL NOT keep ice all day.

I have always needed a lunchbox that would keep my cold items cold and warm items warm. Well my ENGEL lunchbox has done this for me I have been asked by my coworkers where I bought it and I give them the ENGEL website and recommend to them to purchase a lunchbox and forget about worrying about their food getting hot or cold.

Excellent job site lunch box. Also double as a nice day trip beverage cooler. Took on a tubing float trip filled up and it floated alongside the tube with no problem. Thoroughly empressed.

This is a great cooler. The high level of quality is well apparent and it's perfect for use with my kayak. It shipped super fast. I could not be any more happier with it. Thanks ACK!

I bought this dry box for my step dad for his birthday and he absolutely adores it. I think it's a great dry box and cooler, for the price.

I love it I used its a lunch box it's nice and have space for what I need nice I will buy another one just to have extra one

Excellent product for the least expensive I've seen them on the old interweb! Used as a dry storage box on the boat for all the necessities. Has a pile of stuff in it and still has room. Fits great in the under the seat storage on a Ranger Phantom. It's a must for those things you can't afford to get wet!

13 qt Engle cooler /dry box, I enjoy it has plenty of room, a removable try in the top I can say it well worth the money.

Engle 13qt dry box /cooler, I really enjoy my cooler and I buy another

Engle 13qt dry box ,the best cooler I have ever had and I will buy another one,

Total disappointment. As a cooler, this is Engel 13 quart is a joke. I've never had a cooler sweat on the bottom, soaking my seat in my vehicle after about 3 hours in less than 95 degrees inside the vehicle. Sorry, it may be a good dry box, but don't expect much in a cooler, which is the reason I bought it. The ice melts very quickly and there is no way it would last more than about 8 hours or so before turning into all water. I used it once, but now it's not even worth sending back due to a "restocking fee" and return shipping. Do yourself a favor and avoid this low end dry box (not a cooler).

Haven't used it yet, but plan to use it as a bait box. It fits my beach cart perfectly. Will put ice and bait in bottom of box and cut bait in tray, should keep bait cold all day without a problem

I'm really happy with the 13Q. At first I thought it was too small for work as a lunchbox, but it fits everything great & the tray is really handy too. Btw I bought the 19Q as well & the 13Q is plenty roomy enough for carrying your lunch to work. It's very lightweight & seals VERY WELL!! I love mine!! Hope this helps...

Great little cooler that works good for day trips. Its no super cooler as far as ice retention is concerned but it will stay cold for a long day or maybe even an overnighter. I like that it doubles as a dry box, I got to test that feature out and yes it does stay dry inside when you flip your kayak. Ask me how I know.... Looking back though I wish I had got the medium instead. It would be a more versatile size in the long run.

Bought this as a dry box for my skiff, mounted it to a batter tray with tie down straps, works great the tray is handy to keep.my wallet and cell.phone separated from the rest of the essential clutter.

This cooler is EXCELLENT !!!!

Engel 13 Quart Dry Box / Cooler. We have bought 3 of them so far. The first was for us to use as a cooler on kayaking Day Trips. We then ordered 2 more for each sons birthday to use as a Lunch Box / Cooler. With the tray out it will hold 6 of the 16 oz water bottles and ice to keep them cold for the day. If you fill your water bottles half full and freeze them, and finish filling them before using the cooler. It will hold 5 bottles on their side and 3 vertical with the tray in place. The tray will hold 2 sandwichs stacked and a third cut in half. OR you can put 1 sandwich in the tray with candy bars, and 3 additional sandwichs will stack over the water bottles beside the tray. This cooler is not meant to be a K2 or Yetti. It is just a very well made "Light Weight" cooler for day trips. I see it spending a great deal of time riding in the back seat of the truck to haul things home from the grocery store in the Summer. I did a review of the Engel Coolers on the Kayak Crazy web site.

The cooler keeps bottles of water frozen almost all day. It also comes with a tray so no need to order one.

I Really Like My New 13qt Engel Cooler. It is Perfect for Work, and keeps everything Secure and Cold. I work Construction, and it is Subjected to Bangs and Knocks on a Daily Basis, without Skipping a Beat!! I would Definitely But Another Engel Cooler in a Heartbeat!!

great product

I work in construction and I think it's awesome! keeps my drinks cold and my electronics dry.

I needed an insulated container that can keep my insulin and diabetic supplies from overheating, and keep moisture away from the electronics portion of my equipment and supplies. This Dry Box Cooler has proven to be perfect for these tasks. I am so happy to have this now. Plus, ACK was super to do business with!!!

Nice size for everyday use!

This is perfect for taking lunch anywhere. The strap is nice and this thing is built to last. Ice does not last super long, but I only usually need it to last till noon then the contents are usually gone. Also very nice for beers

This cooler / dry box was is a great fit on my kayak. it takes up little space, is very well constructed, and is extremely light for the quality of product. It holds as much as I need to pack for a day and does a good job keeping items cold with just a little ice. attached rod holders to the outside and it saves space and secures wonderfully. Highly recommendedd

great box, even better with a sale. It's a perfect fit in at either stop in the rear well of a Tarpon 160.

Nice product, purchased to keep personal gear dry while on a boat or if we needed to put in the bed of the pickup, wanted it for more than just a cooler. Top construction. Beleive it would work great for a day trip if needed a cooler. Very pleased with purchased as it made it handy to carry cellphone, billfold, ipads, cameras.

Build quality is excellent, nice size (not too big), watertight, but really doesn't keep ice any better than even a $4 styrofoam Walmart wonder. In hot weather you're lucky if its not all water in 12-18 hrs. OK for drinks, not so good for perishable foods.

Excellent lunch box, takes 1/2 the ice of conventional boxes and last 24 hours. Plenty of room for 4 mason jars of tea, fruit,a sandwich and snacks. All the guys on the jobsight are buying them.

Nice little box. Not as rugged as a Yeti or Engle Blue but still a great buy for the money. This box is not roto-molded but rather an outer skin and inner skin so the outside is a little flexible.

With out a doubt this is THE best lunch box you could owne!!! I operate heavy equipment and have to move to different pieces during the day. This box takes the abuse like no other. GREAT product...And fast shipping.

Seriously, this is the only dry box you want if you are camping where containing scent is important. This completely seals completely and it takes days for smells to begin to permeate the box. Durable as heck too.

a very good product .. more than pleased with the quality, the price , & service from ack

Awesome. Exactly what I ordered. Using it for an UltraChiller cold water supply box for racing. Excellent, prompt delivery. I will be back. Thanks

Does not work well as a cooler, ice will not last all day in the heat. It is a great drybox but don't buy one to keep ice very long.

Love this little box!!! Bought some for friends too!

Great price, very fast shipping

This cooler was exactly what we expected from the description. Great quality, sturdy with a nice air tight seal.

Worth the extra 20 bucks over what you would pay for a cheap cooler this size. The fact that it is a dry box is big deal. Keeps water both out and in when you ice melts. It's not industructible like the more expensive engel line, but seriously, who is breaking coolers out there other than the hinges (which are metal on this, so they wont break). If you need a good, small day lunch box for day hunts, hikes, paddling trips, get one of these.

Very nice cooler, made well. Great price from ACK. !

Great as a relatively large and cost effective dry box on our boat.

great lunchbox.

the cooler's quality is exactly as advertised and excellent value as well.

Best price on the internet. Well made, perfect for marine storage and use, dry box.

The cooler box was shipped quickly and arrived in excellent condition. Thanks.

The Engel 13 Quart Dry Box Cooler is an excellent very high quality product. This is the third Engel cooler I have purchased. Its water tight seal and rugged design make it ideal for use as a cooler to travel with. I would definitely purchase this cooler again!

Great product - great experience - would recommend to anyone to do business with the company.

Excellent product. This thing keeps stuff cold all day long. Excellent experience shopping through ACK also. Had never purchased anything from here before. Very satisfied here.

very pleased with this sturdy product,purchased for my son who works outdoors and it stays cold even in 100 degree temps. Also, excellent customer service, timely delivery, great price.

Excellent! I bought another one.

This is the perfect small cooler that also doubles as a dry box. Couldn't ask for any better product.

Awesome, I was glad to find it at this price. Perfect size for the popular refreezeable plastic containers I have along with 12 oz cans. I can forget it in the trunk and have cold drinks the next day too.

Can't comment on how it works as a cooler, but as a dry box, it works great. The construction, fit/finish, etc. are all very good, and the handle is comfortable to hold. Carried it onto a plane, and it fit perfectly under the seat in front of me. Also, as the plane descended, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the box caused the lid to seal shut - a testament to it's air-tightness. For $40, you can't go wrong.

Kick Butt. I've ordered a few more since for my friends and rel's!!! JMB

Great!! using in racecar for cooling shirt.

I've been an Igloo man for years, but this little fellow out-performs what I'm used to. The insulated top and lid gasket give it an advantage. It's very easy to carry with its single handle. Great for back seat of car when traveling. ACK treated me right and the service was very fast. They didn't have the exact one I wanted, so they rushed me a substitute without shipping costs. I was so pleased that I ordered my sister one too from ACK.

Arrived punctually, looks good. I like how light they are, and they seem solid enough, though not as heavy duty as the larger Engel coolers, as I thought they would be. I haven't put them to any heavy use yet, however, but I'm planning to use them as compact captain's dyboxes on a cataraft. They do seem water-worthy, as I've left them out in the rain without the slightest leak.

Bought it for my son for all his outdoor activities. He has taken it on everyone of his deer hunts and says it holds ice the whole time he is hunting which is usually three days. He is very please with it.

Cool little cooler! Love the fact that it can also be used as a dry box!
