This is a great product. Yes you do have to put the whole thing in the freezer but it's not that big (fits 2 bottles or sippys depending on the size) and I do have a small freezer. It does state this on the package. In comparison with other products that claim to do the same thing, this lasts FAR longer! That is the compromise for putting the whole thing in the freezer, so it is totally worth it. It is more efficient than using a cooler bag with ice pack for sure. I use it during the day and at night toss it in the freezer so it's always ready when I need it. I've used this with both of my kids and it's around 3 years old and still working fantastically! Also the strap can be clipped around the diaper bag or stroller so no need to find room in the bag for it.

I chose this because most other totes only keep items cool for a few hours. I wanted something that would last if we were out for the day and this is THE product for that! Love it!! I think this is a must have for any mom.

I purchased this to keep my sons liquid medications cool when we are flying to visit my parents in AZ. I didn't want a freezer bag with separate freezer pieces because I needed to get through security as smoothly as possible.

It worked amazingly well, kept the medications cool for the entire trip (7 hours) and would have for much longer. It also works great for just when we go out in the evening and want to make sure we have his evening dose with us when we go out.

I can imagine how great it would be to have with you if you needed to use it for bottled milk. When we don't need it for my son anymore I will definitely be keeping it for the next kiddo.

We purchased this to preserve baby food and milk during short drives and day trips into the city. We love the fact that we do not have purchase separate ice packs. The whole bag goes inside your freezer. You just take it out when your ready and the contents inside remain cool. We can't attest that it remains cool for 12hrs like the packaging states, but we've carried it around in the city for a good 8hrs and the contents are still cold. Only draw back is that if you have two baby bottles, there is no room for other things. Otherwise, it's a good product.

This cooler bag does keep your milk much longer than others. I don't mind putting the whole bag in the freezer since that is how it keeps the milk colder and longer than other cooler bags. I only wished that the bag was a little bit bigger. It'll fit 2 wide neck bottles but it's a snug fit.

I just returned to work and am pumping 3 times a day. This cooler actually cools the milk down. It stays cold all day, I was amazed to get home and find everything perfectly chilled. I put the bottles in the front compartment and the empty bags in the front zipper pack until I use them, then I put them in the cold pack. Plenty of room for two 6 oz bottles and the bags of pumped milk.
It does take up a little space in the freezer, but not so much that I'm bothered by it, it's a small trade for how cold it keeps things.

Overall: clever design, practical. I can see us using this for juice boxes and snacks down the road.

I love this! Keeps my breastmilk cold for over 10 hours while I'm at work and commuting. Definitely a must-have.

I am a working nursing mom and pump a few times a day. I commute an hour between my office and home each day and use this cooler to transfer my milk. It works great and can even fit a couple days worth of milk storage bags at a time. Nice to just throw in freezer and not have to think about individual ice packs, etc. Love it!!

This cooler kept our bottles cold for longer than any other cooler, and it's very convenient to be able to just pull it out of the freezer and go. The disadvantage for me is that it does not fit the Dr. Brown's bottles with the nipples attached. Instead, I have to put a travel cap on the bottle and attach the vent system and collar/nipple before feeding my daughter. This limits its usefulness in my opinion. However, I think that it will work well for storing breastmilk after pumping at work.

With an overseas trip planned and after reading all the positive reviews, I was excited to give this a try. I wanted to ensure that my breastmilk will get to our destination with no worries of temperature issues so I experimented with: 2 bottles of ice water in one regular cooler with regular ice packs (like Ameda Cool 'N Carry Milk Insulated Storage Tote with 6 Bottles #17076, and 2 similar bottles of ice water in this Playtex Fridge-To-Go (after it was placed in the freezer as instructed), both placed in the same part of the house. Twelve hours had not even passed yet when I checked (after about 9 hours), the bottles in the regular cooler were cold while the ones in Playtex were nearing room temperature! What a massive disappointment.

I will definitely be returning this item.

I bought this bag on sale based on other reviews. Unfortunately, like other reviewers said, the whole thing has to go in the freezer and ends up taking up a fair amount of space. Also, I can't even fit two 5-oz Born Free bottles in it and I can't fit one Tommee Tippee bottle in it, either. It's a good concept, just needs to be altered.
