Pros And Cons.

Replacing an old Coleman cooler that I used for 10 years. Being taller than wider, it is a nice size cooler for packing in the back of the SUV for road trips. Really lightweight. I would have preferred to have rubber lined wheels then the cost saving plastic wheels, however not a deal breaker. I have not vetted the ice duration claim. My old cooler was great in this aspect, however this one feels a little specious tied to light weight.

Durable For Kids Team Sports Meets

Great Cooler. Purchased for our kids’ elementary school athletics department. More than enough space for water and Gatorade for a big crowd. Very durable and easy to maneuver.

No Screws

Appears to be a great cooler but there is not any fasteners to attach the handle?

Love It

Big and beautiful. Pictures make it seem smaller but it's a nice size cooler!

Not Useful For Greater Than A Couple Of Days

We have used this for a couple of years. Pros: the wheels make it easy for moving around campsite. The cup holders on top are nice for holding cans/cups. It is durable and strong. The handle works really well and easy to use. Cons: Ice melts after a couple of days. Looked for "accessories" for this cooler as due to ice melting cheese and other items became soaked, but could not find any baskets or such to keep certain items 'out of the water of melted ice', so will probably look for another cooler since after a few days everything is "wet" and needed to be thrown away.

Decent

Decent enough for light use like a picnic park play day hangout. Easy to clean and maintain. Keeps drinks with ice cooled for a few hours depending on how hot the weather is outside. Holds a good amount. Difficult to wheel though when loaded

Drain Plug Issue

I've used this cooler several times, and it does a great job with keeping things cool. The wheels and size are well-designed. However, the location of the drain plug is problematic. It's situated in a way that it can easily get damaged if the cooler is tilted while moving it on its wheels using the handle, especially if the plug is left open. Unfortunately, I didn't realize the cooler was left to drain when I moved it, and the plug got completely destroyed. Now I'm looking for a replacement. While this was my mistake, the design could be improved by placing the drain plug on the side rather than underneath. It's frustrating to need a replacement part after only a few uses.

Affordable

Bought my cooler about 2 months ago was great up until about a week ago. It's leaking now in the plug area now

Ice Melts In Hours

Worst cooler ever. I bought this for a camping trip in the Mohave. I needed something to keep food cool. The 2 bags of complete melted by the end of the first day. The temperature did not even hit 90°! We had to end our trip 2 early since half of our food was waterlogged, and the rest was unsafe to eat. The store would not take the defective cooler back so we are also out the money we wasted on the piece of junk. This cooler has completely turned us off Coleman. How can we trust them when they would let such a horrible and dangerous product go to sale.

Great Cooler!!

Great Product. I used this cooler on a week long fishing trip a week after I received it. The cabin was a long way from the dock but the wheels on this cooler are great. Capacity is HUGE!!

Not Durable

Received for Fathers Day 2023, used on July 4th without issues. Two weeks later took the cooler down a finished concrete path, hub and wheel fell off. I reattached both and finished the day without another issue. Used again two weeks later, both wheels fell off while walking 50ft down the concrete driveway to load in my truck. Each use contained the same contents: 5lbs ice, 24 20oz waters, 24 12oz cans. Would not recommend if you plan on using this to roll across any other surface than a glass table top.

Like The Cooler

Good cooler... getting used yo stacking items in the taller height.

Great Cooler

Bought this for a cookout last Saturday. Filled it with pop and water and ice for the kids. Sunday morning still plenty of ice and the drinks cold so opened the drain plug and the top so that ice would melt and drain. Tuesday morning still had a little ice and the water and remaining drinks very cold. Top had remained open since Sunday morning.
