Best Ever

I love this thing! I've had a Yeti of similar size for years and I don't use it as often as I'd like because of the weight of it. There are ball games for our kids where I'd love to take a cooler just for a few waters or Gatorades, but the game isn't that long so it's not worth getting my big bulky Yeti out. I purchased this and now I use it all the time! The old saying about if it's not convenient, you won't use it is definitely true. This thing is amazing, conveient, super lightweight, and easy to clean. I highly recommend the pad for the top as well. I struggled with paying $45 for it, but now that I have it, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Makes for a nice quick seat for either of my kids, plus it just looks awesome!

Awesome

First time using cooler on a road trip....I've never had a cooler keep our drinks this cold for an entire trip....that alone is just awesome. My wife said the ice shots we had in the cooler where still very frozen 9hrs after we left. Impressive!

Awesome so far

Have used it once. Had refrigerated items full to the brim. No room for added ice. The temp was retained for 7 hours.

I like it!

First test a few days ago. Put a few cold drinks in it along with food for a day along with a half a bag of ice. Love the tray! Still had some ice it after about 36 hours. I like the removable lid but I do find it a little loose. The handle does hold it down but who has the handle up all the time? First impression is that it’s way better than a nice soft cooler I have and also better than a similar sized big name roto molded cooler I have. I don’t know if this one is grizzly proof but so far I’ve not encountered any grizzlies in South Texas
