Is it easy to carry? Is it suitable to take it to the beach?

It is rather easy to carry, once filled it might become more heavy. The only way to take it to the beach and stay cold is if it was plugged in to either the vehicle or you can use the adapter to plug it in.

Its pretty big, has handles, but loaded, I could imagine it would be rather heavy. It does not bring temps down fast. Youll have to keep it plugged in for hours. Imo this is not what you'd want. Its more for rv campers or truck drivers.

If you do take it to the beach, you will need to keep it plugged into your car to keep food and drinks cold. I don't recommend it for the beach because it is made to work like a small portable refrigerator and if sand were to get into the motor it could damage it. Very light. I am a truck driver so it stays plugged in and in use 5 days a week.

yes it is easy to carry. kind of like a nice size box with handles. It only cools about 30 maybe 40 degrees lower than ambient temperature, so really wouldnt think it would be suitable for meats and other perishables at the beach. Ice chest works best for the beach.

Hi there. Yes you can take this cooler anywhere. It is easy to carry too. We keep ours pluged into our VW Beetle when we go grocery shopping. So far no beach weather here in the NE!

Since it has a motor in it that attaches to a car outlet, or, when inside, to an electrical outlet, it is heavier than most coolers. Also, there is venting on the side of the cooler to reduce the heat from the motor. I do not think you want to take this to a beach where there is sand.

sure..not so sure its the right cooler to take to the beach..you dont wanna get sand in the motor

It's not too heavy or bulky but the cooling feature wouldn't be much use on the beach.

Its very light weight but bulky and awkward to carry around. If you put it in a bag it would be OK.

It's fairly light. Easy to carry. It may be a little lighter than my last leaf blower/mulcher.

This was bought as a gift so I do not have it now but I have a similar TB umbrella. I have used it on Long Beach Island on pretty breezy days and have not had a problem. I found it to be lightweight, easy to carry, easy to put securely in the sand and sturdy.

You can fold it up and roll it, I haven't done it, but it looks possible. It's not heavy, so, you cn easily carry it.

As answered by others, it is less than 3 lbs. Slinging it over your shoulder with the carrying strap makes it an easy beach trip addition.

It's not super portable but I (female) have no problem scooting it around as I need. It does not fold up and go in a car or anything....

Depends on where you are planning to take it. It is easy to throw it in the car and take it with you

Yes, it is very light...you could carry several around without getting bogged down.

Not too bad actually, so long as you have a helper holding open the bag and practice folding it up in the back yard before going to the windy beach! Also, bring plastic bags to fill with sand and put into the pockets in the sides, helps in strong winds

Not too heavy..with the carrier bag its very doable to bring to a lake and carry for .5-1 mile distance

I'm not sure why you are comparing a personal umbrella to a beach umbrella but assuming you mean quality, I can tell you that the compact is very good & very easy to take along.

It is easy to carry and could be strapped to a backpack. It is about 2" deep when folded. I weight over 200 lbs and haven't broken it yet but I haven't done any plopping on it.

Very easy to carry. You need to be aware that if there is any breeze (like at the beach), it is challenging to put together because its so light, the wind will blow it around. Also, one of the connector rods broke while I was assembling it and I never used it since.

It's not so heavy, but I definitely would not use it at the beach. There are much better suited beach umbrellas.

It would be ease for me to carry through the woods or on the beach. There are straps on it that allow you to place it on your back while walking.

It is easy to fold up. But I recall reading that others have left it outside.
