The Coghlan’s 6-Egg Holder is a specialized tool for trekking and camping, weighing only 2.6 ounces. It is constructed from high-density Polypropylene (PP), which is chosen for its chemical resistance and light weight. The high-visibility yellow color is a practical feature that helps prevent the carrier from being lost in a backpack or at a campsite.
The design features internal plastic pillars intended to provide support for the eggs. Specifications indicate the internal spacing is about 44mm, which is optimized for "Medium" sized eggs. If using "Jumbo" eggs, the lid may bulge slightly, so it is best to stick to standard sizes to ensure a secure closure. The "living hinge" and dual tension snaps provide a firm lock, though they require some manual dexterity to operate.
While the rigid walls offer protection against light pressure in a pack, the unit is not airtight. If an egg were to break internally, liquid could leak out. To keep the carrier in good condition, it should be kept away from direct UV sunlight for long periods and cleaned by hand after each trip.
If you need a larger solution for home use instead of camping, the Clear Plastic 18-Egg Organizer is more appropriate. You can browse more portable storage in our Egg Holders with Lids category.
