Customer Testimonials

“Lighter, Stronger and Cheaper Than a Yeti.”
- Gear Patrol

Virtually Indestructible Rigorite™ Coating.

Cavernous Cooler Space

Open any roto-molded cooler and the first thing you notice is how thick the cooler walls are and how little space this leaves for ice and contents. The Rugged Road 85 is different. Its cavernous design gives you far more useable space. In fact, roto-molded coolers with comparable exterior dimensions have an interior capacity of about 72 cans. While you'll fit 85 cans in your Rugged Road 85!

Non-slip coating prevents skidding and sliding.

Best cooler ever purchased

The cooler is light in weight. It fits great on my boat. It does not slide. The ice I put in there lasted 6 days. I like the basket it came with. This is the best cooler I have ever purchased.

The lightest most durable cooler on the market. Beats out other higher priced “name brand” coolers with ice retention as well.

Sweet cooler

The rugged road website was well set up, the shipping was fast and the cooler is awesome. Super light, exactly what I wanted. Only thing I would change is... the silicon (or whatever it is) packet that comes in the cooler... it stunk so bad that I could smell it while the cooler was still in the box. It smells like a Asian lady bug when you smash it with your fingers. The cooler is currently airing out, outside. So... please change that

Second cooler, love these things.

These are great, sold all my Yeti’s… keeps ice as long, much lighter, more functional and I don't have to go to the gym anymore just to be able to lift my cooler.

Rugged Road Outdoors

Hi Zach! Thanks for taking some time to share your thoughts, we're stoked to hear the cooler is a good fit for you! Less time in the gym = more time to spend outside with your cooler :)

Elk hunting requirements

Just back from an elk hunt in Colorado. Tagged a nice bull. Processed meat stayed frozen in my rugged road 85! Outfitter said we would need 3)8 lb blocks of dry ice for the 3 days return. Put 1 block in and 3 days later 100% hard frozen! Photo is a favorite. Red wine, red meat and a rugged road 85. Essentials of a good life

GREAT cooler (7 +days of ice)

I have the 85QT. I was very hesitant to spend that kind of money on a damn cooler, but now that Ive used it several times, I'm glad I pulled the trigger. Went on a 7 day family vaca, Filled the cooler with block ice, food, drinks, etc. I still had plenty of ice on day SEVEN! Actually threw ice away when we got home and unpacked. I'd recommend this brand to anyone.
