Ninja FrostVault Cooler Slays Ice Meltoff With Dry Zone

Award-winning cooler keeps drinks ice cold, but it also keeps delicate foods cool, dry, and separate at food-safe temperatures for days.

Silver and black Ninja cooler with black drawer opened.

Ice is great for keeping lunch chilled, but we all know how melted ice can make for some soggy sandwiches. That’s why the Ninja FrostVault grabbed our attention. Constructed via injection molding and insulated like a heavy-duty super-cooler, the Ninja has an upper ice-retention section, and a lower drawer called the Dry Zone.
Open black cooler filled with various multi-colored beverage cans and ice.

Load your cans or bottles up top with the ice but slide your food into the drawer, and it’ll stay dry and protected from melt-off. Ninja says the Dry Zone chills to under 40 F and stays that way for days at a time.

Just hitting the market – and winner of the 2025 International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades (ICAST) show Best Soft and Hard Coolers award – the Ninja FrostVault Wheeled Coolers are now available in 30-, 45-, and 65-quart sizes. Smaller sizes feature a telescopic handle, and the 65-quart model has a heavy-duty flip-up handle for rolling down the dock.
Nonslip feet prevent sliding once you have the cooler aboard, tie-down straps on the front plus a lid indent allow for firmly securing it in place, and the use of nonmarking wheels ensures a streak-free deck at the end of the day. The Dry Zone drawer is removable for easy cleaning. FrostVault coolers are backed by a five-year warranty. Price: $279–$349 | ninjakitchen.com
