Size
We group the coolers into four size categories: small (0–40L), medium (41–60L), large (61–80L) and extra large (81L and over). The bigger the cooler, the more ice it can fit and the longer it will keep its cool, but make sure your new cooler will fit in your vehicle before you size up.
Claimed volume (L)
Weight when empty (kg)
The weight of the cooler when empty. For lab-tested models this is the weight we measure. For the rest, it's the manufacturer's claimed weight. Some models do not state their weight.
Warranty
The stated warranty in years. Not all coolers specify a warranty (shown as 'Not stated'). Some specify a 'lifetime' warranty, which usually means the expected life for such a product under normal use, and isn't as usefully specific as a set number of years.

Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find them on second-hand websites, or in second-hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
