81 Quart Capacity End-loading Insulated Food Pan Carrier

Easy to use, just put the sealing strip on and you can use it. The insulation effect is very good, easy to use for camping or picnic. The best insulation effect is in the first 4 hours. I like it very much. It is very convenient.

So this was purchased for my son's wedding. We were cooking the food off site since the venue did not have a kitchen. First off, shipping was fast when buying. I know that is different for everyone, Costway said 7 days, but we got shipping notification the next day and fedex got it from Pennsylvania to Missouri in 3. We had placed a pot of steaming hot water closed up in the box for a hour or so before just to temper the box at a higher temp than room temp, just something we thought of. Food came out of the oven at 230 in the afternoon, covered in foil and in the box. Regular metal chafing pans were a perfect fit. It can fit shallow or deep. Box was driven to the venue and left sealed until 630. We pulled one pan at a time as it was needed and when the foil came off, food was steaming! The box was opened and shut about 5 times throughout the evening. We didn't touch a few of the pans (over estimated) and they were sealed in the box for the rest of the evening after the food service was over. We were exhausted and left them sealed in the box in the back of the truck overnight. 1030 the next morning we turned to on cleaning up and opened the box. As we scraped the pans, there was still heat coming off the food. I grabbed my infrared temp gun... Food was still 125 degrees! Obviously it's not meant to hold food over 20 hours, but it's a testiment as to how well it works. I was worried that the time from the oven to time to serve was going to ruin the wedding dinner. Food had dried out just a little, but it was the food type, not the boxes fault. Definitely recommend if you are in need of a way to keep food hot without electricity or flames.

Very sturdy product.

I purchase 2 of these as I used them before and loves how well they keep food hot. My food went from the oven to the hot box and hours later it was if it was straight out of the oven. I may order additional boxes as I am considering cooking dinners as a part time business. One of my best Costway purchases.

They even came with extra hinges! This really worked well and happy I got it. Now I can use it for get togethers and to keep things hot when we have a large backyard party.
