Igloo Island Breeze 28 quart roller cooler is ideal for anyone looking for a small and portable cooler that can keep food and beverages cold for hours. This 28 qt. model is ideal for short trips, small picnics and can hold 37 cans or six two litter bottles. The cooler riser technology incorporated by Igloo helps improve the ice chest’s cooling performance as it effectively minimizes contact with the ground, thus not allowing heat to be absorbed by the cooler.
In addition to a top-notch cooling performance, the Igloo Island Breeze is also designed for maximum portability. The telescoping handle that features a push button that locks it in place (just like any good wheeled luggage) makes it very easy to haul it around, and the wheels are designed nicely, allowing the cooler to be carried on any terrain.

Detailed Features
28-quart capacity
The Igloo Island Breeze is ideal if you don’t need a 40+ quart cooler that can hold food and beverages for a party of four or more people. It will be more than enough if you plan to make short trips or picnics with your spouse or loved one, or take short trips with your kids and just want to hold water and beverages cold for a few hours.
With that said, if you will be taking longer trips with your family, and want to keep large amounts of food and beverages cold for long hours, then you would be better off going for a higher capacity model like the Yeti Tundra 45 Quart or any other bigger ice chest model we have reviewed here.
Cool Riser Technology Offers Better Cooling Performance
One of the most remarkable features of Igloo Island Breeze is the cool riser technology that helps avoid contact with the ground, thus making sure that the cooler can keep ice much longer (since contact with the ground provides a means of heat exchange).
This feature improves the cooler’s capacity for keeping food and drinks cold for a prolonged period, and provides an ideal solution for those who want a cooler for long road trips.
Improved Portability with Telescopic Handle and Wheels
Island Breeze also stands out in terms of portability. Igloo did a good job in this regard by incorporating multiple features that each add to the ice chest’s portability. The push-button telescoping handle we’re used to see on wheeled suitcases makes it very easy to be pulled around.
Likewise, the special soft-ride sport wheels make it very easy to move on almost any terrain. And last but not least, the side carry handles complete the picture and make this cooler one of the most convenient we have ever seen in terms of portability.
The only possible drawback is that some users reported on Amazon.com that the handle (and/or the piece that locks the handle in place when telescope) broke after a few uses. However, the number of users who reported this problem is much less than those who gave the cooler five star ratings with no mentions of such a problem.
Verdict
- Very high cooling performance
- Easy to move around with telescopic handles, wheels and side handles
- Deep enough to hold 2 liter bottles
- 28 qt. may not be enough for everyone
- A few users reported problems with the telescopic handle
