Do I need to buy an ice pack to go inside this bag?

I personally use two little ice pack/bricks during the day. I do live in the tropical state if Qld on Australia so it's quite hot. Keeps cold for hours and hours. Great investment!

Yes, it does not come with one. The bag is insulated well but still needs an ice pack if you are keeping it out of the frig/freezer for a while.

I did not /I put a bottle of water in the freezer and place in on top Of my lunch. Then I have very cold water for lunch. I take my fruit out because it gets to cold

Yes. The bag is insulated but won't stay cold by itself. I use a small ice pack to make sure my food stays cold longer.

It does not come with one. I didn't...but I also pit it in the fridge at work so if you aren't going to do that and need something to stay cold,I would.

Mine did not come with an ice pack in the lid. I purchased some ice packs separately to use with the cooler. I do not recall the seller as it has been a while since I ordered it. I purchased it for my husband to take his lunch to work. He's a builder/contractor & he has been very satisfied with it. It does come with a divider so you essentially have a shelf to keep soft items from getting smashed.

The bag is insulated and there is an internal mesh pocket for an ice pack (not included)

Not unless you buy it used from Ebay or something. I looked around a lot and couldn't find one without the bag.

You need to measure your ice chest and go measure an igloo before ordering. Academy has igloos.

I guess you could, but once you remove the ice cubes to put your food inside, i am sure it will lose it coolness regardless within several hours. The bag is meant to be frozen by folding it up without placing any contents in it. For me any insulated lunch pack will work just as well with a ice pack. What I do is the night before I place a bottle of water in the freezer, about 3/4 of the way full as use that as my ice pack, and then when it melts I have a nice cold drink of water, the alternative is much cheaper than this bag.

Ice packs definitely help keep items cold. None are included. I use mine as an adult lunch box, holds plenty

The ice pack fits the bottom, if needed. It keeps my daughter's lunch quite cold. I place it in her lunch bag at 8:30am. She has lunch at 11:30am and her food is still cold.

We have done that, but it hasn't gone out on us yet. We've owned one for quite some time. We just put in a bag so we could have ice cubes.

No there is only 1 insulated bottle compartment. The majority of the bag in not insulated.

Not really. It's just plastic. It is not insulated; you would need a chill pack for at.

No you can't. The way the bag is set up is those ice packs are sewn inside the bag all over from top to bottom and side to side. You just put it in the freezer overnight and it lasts all day unless it's 90 degrees or hotter than it doesn't last as long. But if I know it will be that hot I usually freeze my water or drinks then it does keep cold. It's great for student lunches!

I did not use ice packs. I froze bottles of water. I would leave around seven in the morning and the water was still mostly frozen at three and four in the afternoon. I do not know how long an ice pack would last but it would be at least as long as in any other bag of this type. I would recommend this bag to anyone. It is a good quality cooler.

Does not hurt to use frozen ice packs. I would not use regular ice as it is not water proof. I kept the items in the trunk ofy car and it did a good job keeping things cool with ice packs.

there is no ice pack embedded. if you put ice in with your beverage it will stay cold for several hours.

yes, I have gone through security at several US airports with the cooler, blue ice packs, and third party sealed ice bags with no problem. You don't even have to open the cooler, but I do take it out of my bag for a separate scan. Only once did they lead me aside to the explosive detection machine and put my (full) milk bags in, but they didn't bother with the ice packs.I suspect TSA sees several of these a day and knows what to expect.

Not a bag of ice but a freezer pack is OK.(you know, the hard shelled kind that have gel in them.)I freeze bottles of water and they cool it down quicker in the beginning. NEVER EVER let ice melt in it. It will ruin the motor.
