Easily My Favorite Cooler

I switched from a 65 to an 85 due to an increased need in size. I have nothing but good things to say about the brand and products. The coolers hold ice incredibly well, are super easy to move around even fully loaded, and have a generous amount of internal volume for how long they'll insulate. My job sells these coolers and they're my go to recommendation whenever someone is looking for a cooler of this size and capability.

RR85 perfect size for weekend trips

This is a great cooler. I have the 45 and it works great but it’s too small for long weekend trip so I got the larger 85. The cooler is light weight so it’s easy to carry or move if needed.

Great. We had difficulty locating any blemish on the RR85. It’s been functional to hold ice for numerous days and will be valuable in our hunting & camping activities for years.

Great Size

This is my third RR cooler. Started with the 65, then added the 45. Love the size and especially the additional height of the 85 when I only want to travel with one cooler. I now have an entire portfolio of RR coolers to fit any potential need. Life is good thanks to Rugged Road!!

Get one, you won’t regret it

Lightweight, rugged, and keeps things cold! I bought this to use in my van for multiday trips, and it’s been worth every penny. Plus, it comes with a snack tray, divider, and a water bottle!
