Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Lixada Trunk Cooler Bag: Insulated for Hot and Cold Items, Storage Luggage for Bicycle Rear Rack, Reflective MTB Bike Pannier Bag - 8L by Mark Adlesh

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good simple design but poor quality zippers and construction

I like the simple design of the box. The foil-like lining is pretty silly, as the very thin foam "insulation" layer sandwiched between the outer fabric and the inner lining is extremely thin - not even enough to keep the sides of the bag upright, and you can expect that something is fragile will hit the cross. Racks at the bottom through the same thin foam in the bottom of the bag. The small plastic coil zippers struggled to turn around corners from the start, and the stiff but very loose-fitting foil sewn very tightly to the zipper didn't help. After rather infrequent use, a zipper finally came off completely. I've only used one, which worked for a while, but it was ALWAYS a slow and tedious process to "gently" close the bag even when both zippers worked. After enduring it for too long I just stopped using the bag. The best I can say is that the velcro straps that hold the bag to the rack worked well and the outer fabric is quite durable. It was a very reasonably priced bag and in this case you definitely get what you pay for. Attached are two photos, one with the zipper no longer closing the bag and the other with the zipper still working. This is NOT a fabric tab that will close the zipper where it appears to be closed - beware of zippers with very small, short teeth. I like to write good reviews for decent products to be honest, but otherwise don't worry. It was such an unusually bad experience with the product that I felt compelled to warn others. I would definitely not recommend this bag to anyone.
