Medela Breast Milk Cooler and Transport Set, 5 ounce Bottles with Lids, Contoured Ice Pack, Cooler Carrier Bag

I loved this cooler so much when I first bought it two months ago that I bought another one immediately. Now that I have been using it every day for these two plus months it is time to write a review. The size is nice and compact, it fits 4 medela brand bottles (5oz size only, the 8oz bottle does NOT fit in this cooler) without the teats attached ( I have had success placing 2 bottles with their teats but the zipper feels like it might break). I mostly use the cooler at home (as I am an exclusive pumper) - I only give my 7 month old freshly expressed BM and since the weather has been turning warmer I prefer to keep the milk in the cooler than on the counter. I do not keep it in the fridge as I do not like warming it up again for a feed- the temperature in the cooler is not cold enough for the fat to curdle and my baby accepts it straight from the cooler so its less work for me. Now that the weather is constantly in the 90s, I find that this cooler only stays cool enough for around 6 hours. I bought extras of the blue block and have to replace it around the clock. I do not know how long it will last if placed in a car in the hot sun for instance. The block also sweats (condensation) and is constantly wet. I wish they would make the bag a little large in order to accommodate bottles with their collars and teats attached but otherwise this product is really handy and works well for us.

Easy to clean, easy to pack, easy to bring around. Absolute game changer for day trips and work

Love this. It’s compact enough to fit inside my diaper bag. I turn the ice pack on it’s side and I’m able to store breast milk bags in it. I use tommee tippee bottles so it makes it more convenient for me since only medela bottles fit inside the bag. Less bottle washing for me .

If you have a busy style of work like nursing, waitressing, delivery drivers, etc. This is the perfect saving system.

I like this product because it keeps breast milk cold while I’m at work. I have to pump in the middle of my shift so it sits in my milking bag with my breast pump and the milk is always cold when I get home, 4-5 hours after pumping. I also use it for all day outings so I know the milk will be good when I need it later. The ice pack fits on the door of my mini fridge and stays cold for most of the day. I would buy this again.

Great deal for the money. You get essentially 4 bottles (just comes with caps only) and a cooler and ice pack for about the same price as purchasing the bottles on their own. Note we use Dr. Browns options rings and nipples with medela bottles so we dont need the medela rings or nipples. The cooler isnt much to look at but it works really well and is small enough to fit in my medium size diaper bag (tight fit) and large sized one. This has been awesome for being out for extended periods of time and being able to bring milk and pump as needed and keep it cool without needing a refrigerator. I will use it for lunch or baby food as my little one grows because after all a cooler is a cooler. Note that the cold pack works excellent for keeping pop cans cold due to its shape. This is an awesome product. We liked it so much we have two!

This is a great cooler bag! I bought this for our 5 hour plane ride. I wanted something that would keep my milk bags cold until I was able to get to a freezer. I didn’t use the bottles but put a thinner ice pack on the bottom and I was able to fit about 6 milk bags (2-4 oz each). They were out a good 9-10 hours and still frozen! Love medela products!

What else is there to say? I love it enough to buy it again not once, but twice! You get four extra bottles, and a kick-butt ice pack to boot! The ice pack stays cold throughout the workday, and even when left in a hot car for a few hours. The last sets I owned were frozen and thawed daily for about a nine month period, and then handed down to a family member for her to use for her baby, which I believe is a testament to the ice packs durability. If youre considering this, then you probably already know that the Medela bottles are also durable--mine are hand washed and sanitized in the microwave daily, and theyre also still being used for a family member. Nothing to lose here. This bag fits snugly inside of the Pump in Style Advanced backpack, too.
