  • Universal and functional!
Color: Nebula-
Amazing gift- my friend lives on this thing. He loves gaming at night and having a cold beer. This gives him the endless cooling for hours of gaming. The color was very nice, I love how many color options there were and this size was truly able to fit everything and keep it cool. I recommend this size over any of the other sizes- as I made the mistake of buying the smaller one which only fits small bottles and cans…. ... show more

  • BEST PURCHASE BY FAR!
Color: Dark Night
I cannot say enough goods things about this can cooler. I love it so much, I bought more for myself and gifts for others. Durable, easy to hold as the material is a bit gripping, and it insulates better than any other can cooler I’ve owned. I can leave my drink in overnight, or from 3am until 10pm and it’s STILL cold. Now that’s a quality product!! Did I mention it fits not only cans, but also bottles, of multiple sizes. ... show more

  • GREAT for 20 oz. Gatorade bottles, but 16 oz. cans can be a challenge
EDIT 02/24/2024 – I’m bumping this up a star because after a few months of use I feel like it works SO well with my go-to 20 oz. G-Zero bottles that the tight fit of the 16 oz. Monster cans was over-emphasized in my initial review. I also inadvertently discovered that the painted finish on it is ridiculously durable after accidentally dropping it on a rough concrete sidewalk and finding only a few minor scratches. I’m impressed enough with this cooler that I ultimately purchased a second one when it went on a sale here in the middle of January with the intent of stretching and ‘training’ one of the lids to fit my Monster cans more easily (as well as to have a spare cooler). After a few uses with the cans I found that the lid indeed does fit them well now, but also confirmed my initial theory that it seems to permanently stretch the lid slightly, making it a teensy bit sloppy on the 20 oz. bottles. Taken as a whole though I think this thing is pretty great and easily worthy of four stars. Original review: I notice Frost Buddy seems to have merged this new “Universal Buddy XL Bottle Cooler” item with their discontinued “Big Buddy Bottle Cooler and Cocktail Shaker.” It makes it a bit harder to make an informed decision since the vast majority of the current reviews are about the old version (which I’d tried previously and returned for other reasons), but I’m here to review the new one that just became available and is advertised in this listing. Overall, I LOVE this drink cooler, but it doesn’t quite live up to the marketing. The build quality and construction seem quite nice, with a rubberized base and attractive finish (I went with the matte black). Most importantly though, it definitely keeps my bottled drinks colder for HOURS longer than the old cheap neoprene foam coolers I’d been using before. The only issue I have is with the advertised compatibility touted in the marketing, but it’s a significant issue for me. My daily drink of choice is Gatorade G-Zero (20 oz. bottle), but I also occasionally want a boost and will go with a Monster Ultra energy drink (16 oz. can). Both of these containers are listed as compatible with the cooler. The Gatorade bottle fits PERFECTLY with the “short” lid and no insert and has met or exceeded my expectations in almost every way. The bottle fits perfectly and the lid tightens down just right to secure the bottle from jiggling around while still being easy to use. However, my 16 oz. Monster can, when using the included insert (oriented properly) and the appropriate short lid is extremely difficult to tighten down without exerting quite a bit of force to stretch out the rubber of the lid enough to allow the threads between the ‘jar’ and lid portions of the cooler to catch and tighten. It’s arduous enough that I fear using it repeatedly with a 16 oz. can will stretch the rubberized lid to the point that it either rips, or that it’ll deform and no longer fit my Gatorade bottles properly. The “tall” lid is useless for either container. For me this item is still a keeper since it handles my primary Gatorade bottle quite well, but for the sake of safety I’m not using it for my 16 oz. cans, which is too bad (and is the reason for the reduced star rating). I feel like it could be perfect with just a couple tweaks, but as it is currently designed I wouldn’t consider it a good fit for the 16 oz. cans it’s marketed to accommodate. I’d really hoped I’d found a good “universal” cooler for my usual drinks, especially at this kind of premium price point, but I guess it wasn’t to be. ... show more

  • Love it for bottled water.
Color: Black
These are great for 16, 20 and 24oz drinks. Water, Gatorade, they all fit. They keep cold just as well as any out there. The real plus is that they fit all the plastic bottled drinks. Oh, they do not fit qts, just saying....

  • These are Great!
Color: Dark Night
I bought the smaller Frost Buddy first and loved it so much I got the XL for bottles. I ride SXS’s a lot and this help keep my drinks from getting hot on the trails. They hold strong, lots of color options, and fit in my cup holders. Would definitely recommend.

  • Great Idea, But Too Big to Be Practical
Color: Rocky Top
The Frost Buddy Universal Can Cooler does exactly what it promises — it keeps drinks cold for hours and fits multiple sizes of cans and bottles. The build quality feels solid and well made. That said, it’s big. For me, it was bulky and uncomfortable to carry around. It felt more like hauling a thermos than a drink holder, and that made it cumbersome to use day-to-day. In the end, I returned it. If portability isn’t a concern and you don’t mind the extra size, it could be a great option. But for me, it just wasn’t practical. ... show more
