It is that time of the year when we all head out to the pool, beach, or outdoors enjoying the warm temperatures and sunny days. No summer trip is complete without bringing along cold beverages. CleverMade has a great option with the $29.99 SnapBasket Cooler. Not only will it keep drinks cold, but it stores easily. Let’s take a look.

The SnapBasket Cooler is an easy to store collapsible ice chest. Its unique design allows the cooler to be stored to less than 3 inches thick then open up to full size with a snap. We have many cooler options, but they all seem to take up a lot of space when loading up and heading out. This cooler is super easy to pack and takes virtually no space. My wife loves the ability to collapse it and has since claimed the cooler for her own. Using it out at the pool and almost any time we visit friends.

While space-saving, the cooler does have a leak-proof, insulated interior which should hold ice up to 36 hours. Volume capacity comes in at 30 liters/8 gallons and 55 pounds and should hold up to 50 cans plus ice. We have had no issues carrying beverages for the entire family.

The SnapBasket comes in a variety of colors and has a good looking design. The outer shell is a rugged canvas and should last a long time under normal use. Padded handles make it easy to carry and there is an exterior pocket and front zipper pocket. An included bottle opener on the handle comes in especially handy.

The SnapBasket Cooler is a no nonsense option to keep beverages cold while being able to be easily stored. The color looks great and is built to last out of quality materials. While collapsed, the cooler is easy to store while loaded down for a beach trip or in the house awaiting the next trip. When snapped open, the cooler is quite sturdy and does hold a lot of drinks. If you are looking for a great solution that is easily stored, give the SnapBasket Cooler by CleverMade a look. You will not be disappointed.
