Review:“We have used this for 3 days now, and we are still on the same bag of ice as we bought on day 1. It fits really well on our small patio. I highly recommend it. Just watch out as the lid is not attached and will slide off easily, but it makes it simple for cleaning, which I gave it a good wash before use, as it had a slick type coating that smelled pretty bad when we opened it. It washed away really easily, though.” -Kindle Customer
