The size of the cool box should be adjusted to the number of people who will be taking it. The more people there are, the larger the cool box should be. Most cool boxes have a capacity of around 25 liters. Another important point is insulation. The better the insulation, the longer the contents stay cool. Most coolers have a layer of styrofoam or polyurethane. Styrofoam is lighter and cheaper, but also less insulating. Polyurethane is thicker and heavier, but is better at keeping contents cool.
