Hi

I've just bought one of these from bbq.co.uk which is a calor gas website.  It cost me £71 with delivery.  I ordered last Sunday and recieved it Tuesday morning.  It was well packaged but the only thing was there's no instructions.  Don't know if it's supposed to come with any or not.  Not a problem for me though as I have read lots about it on here

hi if you compare the coleman and the igloo maxcold side by side you will notice the difference  the coleman is a lot larger and has  about 2" thick walls they use polylite which is an ok insulation but more is needed to preform up to 5 days the igloo has a 1" thick walls and uses ultratherm polyurathene insulation patented to igloo this was deleloped back in the 60s for the nasa space program and is still currently used today but preformance wise there is very little difference over 5 days  however the igloo in the uk temps will carry on longer due to the far more superior insulation as for costco they import through the grey market and bring in around 3-4 models aimed at the catering market costco is alsothe 5th largest retailer in the world and is igloos 2ndlargest account behind walmart and they have the buying power that alot of retailers cant compete with but they do not do the full range in the uk

we sell both the igloo and coleman and we have been selling igloo coolers in the uk since  1989 if i was to choose personaly between the 2  it would be an igloo over colman any day
