    • Holds a ton for the size of the cooler.
Color: Tan/White
I was actually really surprised with how compact the 50qt is. It holds plenty, keeps ice very well and even after ice melted the water stayed freezing cold. 20lbs of Ice lasted 4 days. On the 4th day it was almost all water, cooler was also in sun for almost 8hrs a day. Did very very well in my opinion. Would definitely buy it again. ... show more

    • Great cooler for Arizona summers!
Color: Grey/Green
I live im Arizona and needed a cooler that could hold up to the summer heat. This cooler did not disappoint. Heavy duty latches built in handles and very heavy duty. Best value and better then the other big brand by far. Holds ice for days in 110° weather with the sun beating down on it all day long. ... show more

    • Amazing Cooler
Color: Grey/Green
I admit it, I have a deep love for Pelican products. I was disappointed to read about some of the coolers leaking from the drain. I was looking for a cooler that was between 50-60 quarts, was considering the Orca, Cabelas Polar Cap and this Pelican Elite. After reading hundreds of reviews, I thought I had decided on the Cabelas Polar Cap. I went to a local Cabelas and looked at the cooler. They were very nice, rugged coolers, but seemed REALLY large (exterior dimensions) for the quart capacity of the cooler, so I went back home and did some more reading. The taper of the walls (Top is wider than the bottom) is huge on the Cabelas….so much so, that the 50 quart Pelican Elite is smaller than the 40 quart Cabelas Polar Cap. The 60 quart Pelican Elite is only slightly larger than the Cabelas Polar Cap 40 quart. Both have the standard 2" insulation, just the taper on the Cabelas cooler makes it take up a huge amount of space. Now to be fair, the Pelican Cooler is slightly taller, I think under an inch, but that didn't affect me. I was only concerned about the overall footprint side to side and front to back. So I ended up going with the Pelican and I'm glad I did. First a note, I did not compare it to any other of the high end coolers. There are hundreds of cooler tests on YouTube if you'd like to see that. I did however take it out on my boat for 8 hours in direct sunlight with ambient temperatures around 90. I had 20 pounds of crushed ice in it as well as a bunch of pre chilled water bottles, soda and stuff to make sandwiches. The cooler was probably opened at least 30 times over the course of the day. When we got home that night I was surprised to find that there was very little water in the bottom of the cooler. I bet around 90% of the ice was still ice. My other cheap Coleman cooler would have been down to less than 25% ice and would have been full of water by the end of this same day (That's what I've been using for years) This cooler is nothing short of amazing. To further test the cooler, without adding any more ice I kept it inside my house (about 75 degrees) and monitored the ice a few times a day. The ice in the cooler didn't turn to ice soup for an additional 3 days (where there is more water than ice and it is like a big cup of ice water.) And, no, the cooler didn't leak a drop. Based on reviews, it looks like some people had problems with leaks around the drain, but I did not. The Pelican name and their warranty made me feel comfortable buying it knowing full well that if I did have any problems, they would stand behind their product. I have been an avid user of Pelican products and have only used their warranty once, but was a great experience and they have earned my business. Another thing that I REALLY like about this cooler that no other coolers seem to have, is the latches. I don't like the rubber latches, and I don't understand how anyone really does. When they get cold they are very stiff and difficult to use. A friend of mine has a Yeti and my wife cannot open the cooler when it is cold outside (like below 40ish) The latches on the Pelican Elite have a lock button and then fold out to release, very simple one handed operation. In all, this is a fantastic cooler that you should strongly consider. ... show more

    • A solid Ice chest with good insulation.
Couldn’t find one in white so I got the sky blue. Who buys a dark colored cooler... anyway... People complaining about ice retention are doing it wrong. Pre cool. Add cold. You can do the math with the calories yourself. 12 pack of cans at 70 degrees added to 10lbs of ice at 0 or so. That makes water. Has nothing to do with the cooler. Never mind the massive cooler, stored in the 100 degree garage has a lot of calories to give as well. Bought the cooler then had a kind of surprise to-do with some friends. Had a bunch of sodas in it. Didn’t pre cool it. Only used 10 lbs of ice with refrigerated sodas. The few that remained after the party were cold 4 days later (ice was melted that morning but still close to freezing cold), left outside in 90+ day temps and about 80 night. No problems with water drain as others have had in the past. Knocked off a star for the shape. It’s not exactly space saving making it a less than optimal choice for camping or boa tings. The handles and tapered sides mean you can waste a couple/few cubic feet in packing. The yeti coolers are more efficiently shaped, but have integrity problems. Warping and such. Figured if I was going to buy something for this much money it would be indestructible. My experience with pelican cases previously and examination of this case make me fee this is all but indestructible. You can jump on the lid and it won’t bend or deflect. It is heavy though. Made in America is a nice touch as well. ... show more

    • Great cooler
Color: Tan/Orange
Cooler works great keeps ice cold and for a long period of time(days) . Just make sure ratio of ice is 60/40 or if cooler is pre-chilled 50/50 is good. I love my pelican cooler this is my 3rd one .

    • Excellent Quality
We watched a YouTube video regarding a test for the best quality cooler. The experiment was conducted in Florida and very well done. Pelican was one of the two top performing coolers. We went with Pelican because size for size (50 quart) they were very comparable to another top brand (Orca) in performance, but they were $100 less expensive. We absolutley LOVE our Pelican 50 quart coolers. We purchased two, loved them so much, we purchased another. The quality is unbeatable. They are extremely well made with high quality materials. Pelicans are very durable and attractive. I took mine to girls camp during 115 degree weather and it kept my food cold for almost 3 days. Initially I was a little disappointed; however, everyone else around me was going through bags of ice daily in other coolers (from a variety of manufacturers). I put a couple medium bags of ice in my Pelican on the afternoon of the third day and it easily lasted until the end of the week. (Other coolers were out of ice within 24 hours). My Pelican out performed all other coolers at the camp including the overrated Yeti, which my Pelican put to shame. I HIGHLY recommend Pelican coolers! Just FYI, the higher end coolers all have smaller interiors than the cheaper coolers because of their thick insulated walls. ... show more
