PackIt Freezable 12-Can Tote Cooler Bag, Seaside Stripes, 10.4L foldable beach and lunch cooler bag

PackIt Freezable 12-Can Tote Cooler Bag is a foldable, freeze-to-cool lunch and beach tote with built-in gel walls that chill up to 12 cans without ice.

This Seaside Stripes 10.4L tote uses PackIt's patented ECOFREEZE technology — gel integrated into the bag walls — so you simply freeze the whole tote overnight and it stays cold for hours. Lightweight and foldable when not in use, it’s designed for quick beach trips, packed lunches, or weekend picnics where hauling loose ice is inconvenient. The interior features a leakproof welded liner for easy cleanup, and the materials are non-toxic and PVC-, BPA-, phthalate-, and lead-free.

How long do I need to freeze the tote before using it?

For best performance, lay the tote flat in the freezer for at least 8 hours. The built-in gel needs time to solidify so the walls can hold chill and maintain cooler interior temperatures throughout your outing.

• Freeze flat overnight (8+ hours) for optimal cooling
• Can be refrozen between uses to restore full chilling power
• Short freezes (4–6 hours) provide moderate cooling for quick trips

What capacity and dimensions will it handle for outings?

The tote holds up to 12 standard 12-ounce cans and offers a 10.4 liter volume. When open it measures 17.25" long, 7.5" wide, and 12.5" high; when folded it compacts to 17.25" by 7.5" by 4" for storage.

• 10.4L capacity fits 12 cans or comparable food containers
• Open dimensions: 17.25"L x 7.5"W x 12.5"H
• Folds flat to 17.25"L x 7.5"W x 4"H for easy packing or shelf storage

Is it easy to clean and safe to use with food?

The interior has a welded, leakproof liner that wipes clean quickly; spot-clean the exterior as needed. PackIt constructs these totes from non-toxic gel and liners — free of PVC, BPA, phthalates, and lead — so they are suitable for carrying drinks and perishables.

• Interior wipes clean; exterior spot-clean only
• Leakproof welded liner prevents spills from soaking the bag walls
• Non-toxic materials: PVC-, BPA-, phthalate-, and lead-free

Can this tote replace ice or separate ice packs?

Yes — the ECOFREEZE gel in the walls is designed specifically to replace loose ice or external ice packs for many everyday uses. Freezing the bag itself creates a chill surface that reduces mess and weight compared with carrying ice and helps preserve cold items for hours.

• Built-in freezable gel eliminates the need for separate ice
• Zippered top closure locks in cool, dry air
• Reduces condensation and soggy contents versus melting ice inside

Who is this for: The PackIt Freezable 12-Can Tote in Seaside Stripes is ideal for anyone who wants a portable, low-mess cooling solution — beachgoers, commuters who pack lunches, parents packing snacks, and outdoor event attendees. It’s especially useful when freezer space at home makes it easy to prepare the tote ahead of time and when lightweight, foldable storage matters on the go.
