  • Built like a tank!
Color: Tan/White
Sturdy, but heavy. You can sit or stand on it. Holds wine bottles vertically. Decent ice retention, but don’t expect multiple days. Thoughtful design features such as bottle opener, ability to lock, and indentation on one side to make carrying more comfortable. Small footprint is ideal on a smaller boat as a day cooler. ... show more

  • This thing is tough.
Color: Grey/Green
I travel all over the country with this thing to keep my food cold. It gets beat up rattling around in the back of my work truck all day every day while working. Besides a few scratches there's nothing wrong with it, it's like new, it's fallen off the tailgate, i use it as a step stool from time to time, stuff gets tossed on top of it, around it, things fall on it. It's tough. I haven't actually done a full test on how cold it stays and how long ice lasts. I use freezer packs so my food doesn't get wet from ice. I've used ice a few times and it seems to last several days, it stays very cold. My ice packs don't do a whole lot, as I don't use many, but even on hot days it keeps my food chilled so it doesn't spoil. The lid will also get warm and you can feel the warmth on the inside, if it's in direct sunlight on a hot day. With ice this shouldn't be an issue. It holds plenty of drinks or food, it's a nice size especially when you have more vertical space rather than horizontal. I expect this thing will last me years to come, even with heavy use. ... show more

  • Typical Pelican Quality-Great for wine bottles, does a fair job of cooling
Color: White/Gray
I've owned Pelican cases for years, this is the 1st cooler I've ordered from Pelican. Also own a K2 rotomolded cooler and yeti soft sides. Good: The latches are top notch, keeping cooler well shut, way better than the Yeti/K2 rubber latches. Bad: Sucker is heavy and really needs wheels. We use this cooler primarily on the wakeboard boat here in central Texas (where its 100 degrees) every day this summer. The taller design of this cooler was the reason we went with it because it takes up less footprint on the boat that the K2. It is definitely a deep cooler and great for wine bottles or tall bottles. We've found that the ice melts quite rapidly in the cooler, turning to water much faster than yeti or K2, BUT- if its prechilled with ice for 3-4 hours, it maintains ice for the whole day. It is a leaner and less efficient option than the heavy duty 3" thick rotomolded coolers. Handle is top quality and smart cutout for the carrying of it along your leg. But, man, hauling this cooler full for about 1/4 mile hike to the boat is an ordeal. I would guess fully loaded its nearly 40lbs. It is great as a Seat though, and is sturdy enough to sit and stand on for as long as needed. The cutouts for the drink locations on the top are mostly useless if you use a koozy, which 99% of people do. Make those bigger and they'll be a nice feature. Overall, decent cooler, I'd probably buy again, but would be great if it had a wheel option of a strap. Its just a mofo to carry. ... show more

  • Glad I did my comparison!!!!!!
I have had my eye on a Yxxx for years! I finally saved up my pocket change to splurge and as I was looking on Amazon I saw this Pelican cooler pop up. As I read the reviews, examined the features and saw the price I had no choice but to change my mind. As usual Amazon got it to me fast and well packaged. My cooler did not have a scratch or dust/ white powder on it. There was no issue with the seal either; It was immaculate. The shape of this cooler is so useful for us and it fits the perfect amount of cans and bottles. It is much easier to fit in the back of the SUV with luggage for a road trip because of its shape. I mainly use it for road trips and taking it to watch soccer. It serves as a great seat, table or foot rest and the cup holders and bottle opener are so useful and speak to the excellent design. Really happy I found this awesome cooler. It has kept ice for over three days, could probably hold it longer but I have not needed to find out. GREAT product by Pelican! And made in the USA! ... show more

  • Glad i bought this model.
Color: Grey/Green
So far i love this cooler. I picked this brand over the mythical snow monster brand mainly for 2 reasons. First, its a good deal cheaper than a model of comparable size from the other, and second, for the button latches. I dont really like the other style with those rubber T shaped latches, just my personal pref. Did my pelican come with the infamous gasket gap.... yes, it did. Did it shatter my reality, no. It took all of 10 seconds to pull up the last 3 inches of one side of the gasket, pull it a little forward towards the other side, and push it back down into the channel it sits in. Very simple fix. If you are put off on the idea of purchasing this cooler due to the numerous reports/complaints about the gasket, i would not let that be the deciding factor as to why you would not consider this brand. Should it come perfect, that would be nice, but mine and many others haven't. The handle is also very nice to grip, its a bit of a squishy or soft rubber that feels better than hard plastic. The cooler is on the heavy side empty, but most are that have such thick insulation and are well made. I got the gray with the green interior, love the bright color on the inside. Easy to see what you are digging through. If i end up having problems with this item down the road, i will update this with those problems. For now, i would buy this again if needed, and would consider buying some of the larger models in the future. ... show more
