New esky
Submitted by Dirt on Fri, 2014-03-14 18:43
Hey guys, my esky has finally died after about 8 years and I'm looking at getting a quality esky that will accommodate a couple of large dhuies and long enough to fit a couple mackies,. Quality is important and it must have a quality seal,. Any suggestions and places to look would be appreciated

Xtreme all the way! Left
Xtreme all the way! Left Karratha on 20th Dec in sweltering conditions and drove to Perth over a couple days with a rather large whole fish for xmas dinner (packed in ice and cryovaced). Fish was perfect on the 25th and had plenty of ice left over for another few days of festivities. Taken to the Montes 3 times and couldn't ask for better.
Cheers

hahah the destuction of an esky
reminds me of when I had my razorline C/C , mate asks could you take me and the young bloke out for a fish when he gets hone from boarding school , I said yes no worrys , the day turns up and I meet them at the ramp , well to say I was a taken back is an understatement this 14 year old kid was 195cm and weighed at least 120 kg , we had good day out fishing but on the the way back home big boy decides sitting on my igloo esky would be a good thing I didn't mind until when we got back to the ramp and realized he had crushed my esky

EvaKool and the ones similar
EvaKool and the ones similar are great but they are also easily cracked if you do the wrong thing with them.I would go a Xtreme cooler myself now.

-1, I have to disagree, I've had my two for years and they haven't been cracked, I don't baby them either plus they always hold ice allot better than mates eskies made out of Plastic no matter what the brand is.

100litre Macky Esky
Dean, I recently purchased a mackie esky of Dave from Extreme and Adam has filled it twice, very good quality esky, great service and very happy with the performance of the one I have, can thoroughly recommend Extreme.
Should come up and compare coolers sometime.

Xtreme Coolers
As most have said, Xtreme coolers are a great product and all of us here use them.
The 100L macky box would be ideal, let us know if we can help.

+ 10
My Xtreme cooler gets used everyday - 5 years old and apart from the odd mark its withstood the test of time. Well insulated and keeps ice and everything else cold for ages, price is great too.
Will be buying another 2 soon - I just have to work out what sizes.
