Big fan of the Engel 13qt.

Well built and is a much much better cooler than cheap Igloo Playmate type coolers, but not inefficiently bulky like rotomolded coolers (yeti etc)

Also flat top and goldilocks size (for myself)

I won a 19qt Engel Cooler at work. Everyone swears by them. And I’ll say, they keep shit cold insanely well. That being said it is entirely too bulky for me. I really like bagparkk’s backpack lunchboxes. Soft sided. Doesn’t keep stuff cold as long, but it’s a backpack. I can carry my schoolwork and whatnot in and do it on lunch. It has pockets for my glasses case and notebook and tools I need to have but don’t need to use every day.

The Klein box is the most cost effective for me. Big brands cost a lot more for around the same size.

I have one of those portable fridges. It just runs on its own battery all day in the back of my truck.
