19-11-2024I love this set to bring cold milk in the car when I go out with my baby, the bag keeps the milk cold all day! I was looking for a cooler bag and this option was perfect, Ive tried many cooler bags and the reason why I love this one is the ice block ( pack ) that comes with this bag really does the job keeping the milk cold, I also bought smaller ice packs from the dollar store and I use it for food and snacks while in the car and shopping at the mall etc, I bring yogurt, cheese, milk, grapes.....nothing gets spoiled so in my mind you get more use out of this bag, not just milk. Worth the money in my opinion :)

> 3 dayI 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.

> 3 dayWhat 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.

> 3 dayThis 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!

> 3 dayThe bag and ice pack are wonderful. One of the bottles numbers rubbed off. I’m not sure when it happened as all have been hand washed and never put in the dishwasher. Other than that, it’s great.

> 3 dayPerfect. I needed another one of these and the set I got is exactly like the one that came with my pump set I bought 2 years ago. Fast shipping, too. I carry empty clean bottles to work and carry full bottles home every day. It has a special ice pack and fit the ice pack and 4 bottles. Its black. Looks like a lunch bag. There is a window, and I put my business card in the front. Im sure you can put a picture in there if you want to. For me, its small and very discreet to use at work. Very happy.

> 3 dayI honestly purchased this as I breastfeed baby on one side and pump on the other and I only pump twice a nice and call it laziness or sleep deprivation but getting those extra 10-15 minutes of sleep every night make a difference. I dont have to go all the way to the kitchen and store my milk instead I place it in this little cooler and in the morning I store my milk away. Super glad I bought this.
