Does it leak when ice melts?

I've had no leakage problems. There is a plastic liner on the inside, so as long as the cooler isn't turned upside down...it should never leak.

The cooler has a hard plastic liner. If the cooler tips, then likely yes it would leak a bit

no it does not. my ice compartment has ice buildup and I have to unplug to defrost.

Yes it does, it has a sensor that shuts the machine off. once it gets low again it will make ice again.

As long as the rubber stopper is in place and the latch is locked, this bottle has not yet had any leaking issues. On the other hand, if you put in iced beverages, you might worry about the condensation on the outside.

I've ordered it twice and it doesn't need the ice. I just put them in the freezer when I get them. They are great!! But I'd call the company if they were leaking.

Yes. The ice bag does not "sweat" or leak. It keeps stuff cold for about 3-5 hours.

Mine does not leak. As long as the seal is tight and not worn down, it will not leak.

All ice melts, but what is nice about this machine is the melted ice water goes down into the reservoir and that is the water the machine reuses to make more ice. It is a continuous cycle so you always have ice available.

Even though it is lined with waterproof material, I would imagine that when ice melts, water will sip through the zipper. Ice pack will work fine though.

I have for short periods, but it may not be a good idea. The heating/cooling element is on the side of the cooler. I would imagine if the ice melted enough that water got in there, it could damage it. Maybe if you did ice in milk jugs or something.

Did not have that problem but a good outdoor silicone caulk should take care of any leaks. If the unit is full and it freezes it will be likely to crack from expansion of the ice.

They have been known to leak. I have discovered that if I heat the lids before tightening, the plastic will become malleable and I can tighten them further. Then, when they cool, the plastic shrinks and the lid will be tighter and not leak.However, just for picking up and shaking a drink, I have not had a leak with something like that. When they leak usually it's a very small seep.

I have not used mine yet to test it out however they appear to be well made but i dont know if i would trust it to hold ice without leaking though.

We have not knowing we did and it froze just fine. 5 days later I used it and there was no leaking. They were perfect!!

Absolutely! The best part is the inner black lining is removable so you can unzip it and dump the melted ice when you are done.
