Strong Cooler

I was provided this cooler for free in exchange for my honest review. This is a great cooler. I have always wanted one of the Yeti or Rtic coolers but never wanted to pay the price for a cooler of that quality. This cooler made by Dick ’s Sporting Goods( DSG) is just as good as either of those brands. Upon receiving the cooler, I was very impressed with the quality of the cooler, all of the different parts feel well made and durable which is important when you take your cooler on all of your adventures. I like the rope handles on each side. I find those far more comfortable than coolers I have had in the past with plastic handles molded into the plastic. The rope feels very durable. The dual latches that keep the lid firmly shut are also very easy to open which is important since you need to keep the lid firmly closed to keep the ice frozen for the full 7 days the cooler claims to make. I started off filling up this cooler with ice and some drinks for a fun day at the park, then it started raining while the temperature dropped close to freezing. So instead, I had to leave the cooler inside and decided to see how long the ice would last in a 73 degree room. The photos show the ice over a few days. It is currently day 5 and the cooler has at half of the ice we started with. I have yet to find any flaws with this cooler. If I ever do, I ’ ll update this review with my findings.

The DSG Victory 48 Quart Performance Cooler is definitely a must have for any family, whether you 're sitting at the field for your sports event, tailgating or just want a Cooler for the car. This cooler offers space and keeps your items cool even without ice. We 've used this for husband's landscaping company in his truck, tailgating at major sports events and at the soccer field for practice. I ca n't wait to use it for hiking and kayaking. Highlights: Large capacity for drinks and food. Easy to carry with molded in handles as well as rope handles. Built in bottle opener with padlock capabilities. Fits perfectly in the 3rd row vehicle** Paid Endorser and received free product**

I am writing an unbiased review of the 48qt DSG Victory Cooler in red color. I am a paid endorser and recieved free product. First thoughts on the cooler is it shipped in a nice DSG( Dicks Sporting Goods) box. The box arrived without any damages noticed. The red color is not a flashy red, but nothing stands out of the color. Upon first eye inspection the cooler has a nice modern look to it. Material feels sturdy including the attached bottle opener and rope style handles.. The clamp and latch style lid closure is a nice feature. Drain is an easy to access and use screw style cap. MADE IN USA. Upon inspection, I noticed one small thing that may or may not be a concern to some people. I noticed when closed and pressed on the lid a bit, I could hear air escaping from the cooler. This means that there is a small void that air can get in and out of maybe releasing some of the trapped temperature. I believe this is due to a small gap in the rubber seal along the back of the lid. This may or may not affect the overall performace of the cooler. Overall this cooler and its durability seem to be a great purchase for someone looking for a cooler that performs the same or better as much more expensive coolers. I put a bit of ice, ice packs, and cokes into the cooler to leave in my uninsulated garage due to a nice long week of higher temperatures than usual. I also threw in the back of my truck to drive around to vary temps some more. This gives testing some colder nights, and warmer days. The cooler held the ice and still has ice in it from 5 days ago. My drinks stayed cold, and each trip to the cooler had frigid temps inside when I would open to check or get a drink. Solid cooler and look forward to using it much more!

Received this cooler just in time for a big cool down. High temperaturefor a few days was- 20 F. We brought the cooler to a hockey tournament and brought it inside the lovker room. Players beat on it, stood on it, and it kept drinks cold. Paid

This review is for the DSG Victory 48 qt Performance Cooler. The cooler is an all around good cooler. It's well built, and is made in the USA! It has a built in bottle opener. Large carry handles. A large drain. The latches for the lid are sturdy. As shown in my pictures it will hold twenty- eight 16oz bottles. It was able to hold a 5 gallon bucket of ice on the bottles. This is my main use of a cooler. I keep a cooler with drinks in my truck year round. The ice retention was good and drinks stay cold for days, even with continued opening of the cooler. The cooler does n't have a wire basket. This cooler should last for years to come. I am a paid endorser and have received free product.

These hard coolers tend to be heavy- this is the perfect size for enough to hold everything you need, without needing 2 people to lift it. The hard handle which other brands have gone away from is great for putting it down and not having to bend down to pick it up- and this one fixes one of the major flaws where it will snap into place, but very easily moves to a stowed position. Some other brands the upright position is far too rigid and takes an extra hand on the cooler to stow it. Similarly, on other brands the all- rubber latches are a huge pain to open the cooler- this has rubber straps with a cam- action handle, so you get the benefit of the rubber always pulling it close, but it can easily be opened with 1 hand. I put about 5lbs of ice into a warm cooler in a warm house and it took 72 hours to melt- I believe 10+lbs would last the claimed 5 days. Built in bottle opener that is also often missing on these hard coolers. Screams America in the red color, and made in USA.

I put the DSG Victory 28 Quart Performance Cooler to the test for the biggest game of the year — Super Bowl Sunday — and it delivered! I filled it with ice the day before the game to save time, and by kickoff the next day, the ice was still solid, keeping our drinks perfectly chilled. The 28- quart size is ideal for tailgates, backyard parties, road trips, or camping trips. It ’s compact enough to carry easily but still holds plenty of drinks and snacks. The rugged construction and secure latches give it a premium feel, and the insulation is top- notch. I also appreciate the built- in bottle opener — a small but smart feature that makes game day even easier. This one is a winner if you ’ re looking for a reliable, durable, and well- insulated cooler. The DSG Victory cooler keeps everything cold and ready to go when you are. I highly recommend it!

I got this cooler Superbowl weekend, and we put it right to use, and it did great. It looks excellent, and it ’s sturdy and stable for sure. After the game, we left it sit in the warm garage in Florida for 4 days, and everything was still good and cold. We cleaned it out and repacked for the beach the next weekend, and it worked perfect. Just the right size and durable. Luckily the lid locks so we didn ’ t lose anything when our son knocked it over chasing a frisbee. Still looks pristine, looking forward to some more upcoming adventures!! Next to see if it fits on the Kayak!

Our DSG victory cooler has been an absolutely amazing addition to our daily life. We have used it to travel the 40 miles into town and grab groceries which were needed for the week. It kept ice frozen and the food cold and even after we emptied the food out the ice remained behind for days afterwards. Not only does it have awesome ice keeping abilities, it is also the perfect size to fit in the back of our car and is easy to carry with the heavy duty adjustable handle. We absolutely love our cooler! I am a paid endorser and have received free products.

I was really happy when I got the message that I would get to review one of these DSG Victory coolers. I was even happier after I saw how good it was. It's the coldest part of the year in the High Forest of Tennessee but before I received this cooler I was still having to buy ice every 3rd day. This cooler has kept my ice for 5 days and counting. I do n't keep a very heavily stocked cooler but I do require ice for water throughout the day. Buying ice just to have ice water is one of the indulgences I allow myself while I 'm in my wander years. This cooler has relieved the last of my stress around always having ice and best of all my cost is down from 30/mth to 18/mth, not to mention the gas saved from store runs. This cooler looks good, right out of the box. I got the grey and I 'm very happy with it. It has an easy to carry handle that frees up one hand so you can carry your fishing rod too. The handle is metal and very sturdy and well machined. The latches are heavy duty materials that securely close and seal the cooler, allowing for no temperature leaks. The box itself is deep and is made of something sturdy enough that you do n't have to worry about that big trout breaking it when you toss it in there. The exterior is molded in ways that support its role as a top notch cooler. I 'm about 225 and I feel solid when I sit on it. There's a built- in bottle opener, which is courtesy of the real metal used for the lock. All these good things and it's made in the USA. I took the cooler to work a couple times this week. I was stopped twice to talk about DSG and how well made their products always prove to be. This cooler is no different. Everything about it is outstanding.
