FAQs

How long does the cooler compartment keep food cold?

The cooler compartment is designed with 8mm PE foam and aluminium foil insulation to keep chilled goods fresh for up to six hours, making it ideal for day trips.

What items are included in the 6-person picnic set?

The set includes six dinner plates, six sets of stainless steel cutlery (fork, knife, spoon), six plastic wine glasses, and six cotton napkins, providing a complete dining experience for six.

Is the picnic bag waterproof?

The bag features a PVC waterproof coating on its tweed fabric, which makes the exterior wipe-clean and resistant to spills. While it handles splashes well, it is not designed to be submerged in water.

Can I use the cooler compartment for hot food?

While the insulated compartment primarily optimizes for keeping items cold, it can help maintain the temperature of warm foods for a short period. However, its design and materials are optimized for chilling, so performance for hot food may vary.

How do I clean the VonHaus Picnic Holdall?

The exterior can be wiped clean with a damp cloth due to its PVC coating. The interior should also be wiped with a damp cloth and mild soap. All included dinnerware (cutlery, glasses, napkins) should be hand washed. Always ensure the bag is completely dry before storing.

What is the capacity of the cooler compartment?

The cooler compartment offers a generous 38-liter capacity, providing ample space to store food and drinks for up to six people.

Are ice packs included with the holdall?

No, ice packs are not included with the VonHaus 6 Person Picnic Holdall. You will need to provide your own to maximize the cooling performance.

Troubleshooting

Food not staying cold for the advertised duration.

Ensure the cooler compartment is adequately filled, as a full cooler retains cold better. Use sufficient ice packs or frozen items. Keep the cooler zipped shut when not accessing contents. Pre-chilling the cooler with ice packs for 30 minutes before packing can also significantly improve performance.

Carry strap feels uncomfortable when the bag is fully loaded.

While the shoulder strap is padded, a fully loaded 38L bag can be heavy. Try distributing the weight more evenly by utilizing both the padded shoulder strap and the two carry handles simultaneously. Alternatively, if preferred, use only the two carry handles. Avoid overpacking beyond a comfortable carrying weight.

Interior or exterior has an odor after use.

Thoroughly wipe down both the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For lingering odors, a solution of baking soda and water can be used on the interior. Ensure the bag is completely air-dried in an open space before zipping it up and storing to prevent mold and unpleasant smells.
