 Good for travel with Frio coolers July 4, 2009

I've used this case a couple of times for travel with insulin and diabetic supplies. It works as advertised and does a nice job providing plenty of room for Frio pouches in the outer mesh pocket. It's a bit pricey for what it is (a square black nylon bag with a mesh outer pocket and space inside for storage), however. Two other nits I have with this bag are: First, it is extremely easy for pickpockets to unzip (lost a glucometer that way once). A twist tie or other device is needed to keep the double zipper pulls secured to each other to make it just that much more difficult for thieves to open. Secondly, the shoulder strap is minimal at best and not comfortable for all day use (e.g., on a hike). In the end, though, the large outer mesh pocket makes up for those issues and makes this an essential travel/day pack for those who need to carry cooled medication and supplies.
 OK but could be better June 19, 2010

I purchased this product along with my FRIO pouch to keep my insulin pens cool while away from home. I like the mesh pouch on the outside of the case as it allows the FRIO to "breath" so that it works properly, however the hook part of the hook & loop strip that keeps the flap closed wore out in just a few months, yet the same kind of closure on the FRIO pouch is still in pristine condition. Another issue I have with the case is that it really isn't designed well on the inside. I was hoping for something that would carry my meter, test strips, lancing device, spare lancets, alcohol swabs, pen needles, and needle clipping device neatly along with a pill box for my oral meds. The case is not expandable and it is nearly impossible to fit all of that inside, even though from the photos it looks like it is a decent sized organizer. If I were to do it again, I would have no problem ordering another FRIO pouch but would not order this case to go with it. There are better products on the market.
