Whether for a picnic, camping holiday, day out on the boat or just watching the game, the Esky is an essential piece of kit for the Australian Summer.
Below we review the best Eskies currently available in Australia.
Top Pick:
#1 Techni Ice Signature range
Perfect for camping or 4WD trips, this range offers extended cooling. Solid as a rock and right up there for insulation, Techni Ice ice boxes are massively celebrated for their reliability and performance in Australian conditions.
The Signature Range boasts an incredible 8-25 days and offers full length under skids to reduce slipping, dual seals, marine grade rope restraints, and a high-quality food grade inner liner.
With their origins in the commercial market, Australian owned Techni Ice pride themselves on being at the forefront of icebox technology.
Runner Up:
Another absolute champion of Australian summers, the IceKool ice box boasts top notch insulation, durability and quality, and looks great doing it. Manufacturers EvaKool claim up to 10 days of ice storage with the IceKool box.
This option provides great balance between value and performance in the Evakool range. Perfect for camping, boating, beach days and more, these eskys are rugged and effective.
What's more, with them being available in a wide range of sizes, there's an IceKool suit everyone.
#4 Evakool Fibreglass Icebox
Another super popular esky, this range from Evakool is made from fibreglass, which reflects the heat, meaning ice stays frozen for longer. Handmade with refrigeration quality insulation, this is one of the highest performing ice boxes on the market.
The high gloss fibreglass looks great, is hygienic as doesn't absorb flavours or odours, and is easy to clean.
With ice storage of up to 15 days, and a super solid construction designed specifically for the Australian outdoors, this is likely the only Ice Box you'll ever need.
