  • Great ice chest! Best bang for your buck
Color: Patriot
We absolutely love this cooler! It keeps ice for three days, it’s very well built and not over priced.

  • Great cooler that stays cold for 4+ days!
Color: Deep Harbor/RTIC Ice
I bought this to use when I go camping with my travel trailer. I don't run the fridge on propane while driving as I have extended daily drives around 10 hours at a time so I couldn't leave the items that need to stay cold in the fridge as they would spoil. This cooler did great at maintaining the ice that I started off with for four days and I am thrilled with that. The rope handles and ability to grab around each side of the cooler make lifting and carrying easy. The dual drain plugs work great to dump the water when you're done. I also like that the lid stays open unlike a Coleman unit that I have that won't stay open. I've not experience any leaking, always a plus! My only real gripe with this unit is that I wish that it came with storage baskets for the top that I had to buy separately. The ability to segregate your items and keep them dry up top is very handy. I used it to store lunch meats, cheeses and condiments to be able to easily pull the basket out and make lunch while at a rest area. I would have gladly paid a little more for that convenience if Rtic had offered it. Great unit and worth the price compared to others currently available. ... show more

  • Wonderful for weekend camping trips!
Color: Deep Harbor/RTIC Ice
Great cooler, holds ice very well for several days! The cooler is great quality, but remains lightweight, so I can easily move it around between my Jeep, Tahoe, or camper myself as a small framed woman. The color is stunning, I’ve already had compliments, even my dad wanted to snatch it up. It seals great so keeps the cold in! Definitely recommend for weekend campers who need a cooler that holds ice for a few days. ... show more

  • Seriously the best!
Color: Patriot
We LOVE this cooler! It is bigger like a Yeti style because it actually keeps the contents cold, we love how solid it is and are getting rid of our other coolers now because this one is the best!

  • Just pull the trigger.
Color: Sage/Beach
Great cooler. Held ice for six days on our last camping trip. The rope handles are great for a two person carry. This is a large cooler and can easily hold the advertised amount. We bought the green cooler with the tan ropes, and it is beautiful.

  • Great product
Color: Deep Harbor/RTIC Ice
Love it, very durable. Used it camping and kept things cold the whole weekend and didn’t have to add more ice.

  • Great cooler with great colors and accessories
I love this color scheme and cooler! It’s perfect fit for what I do and with the custom ice divider it’s even better. Even though I love it the ice didn’t last as long as I would have liked. Handled work and are quality but I prefer a solid latch. Pricey but color and quality is worth it just wish it held ice longer but I’m a stickler. ... show more

  • Excellent cooler - but DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER!
Color: White & Grey
The item is perfect, but this seller is very difficult to deal with: I purchased this 52 qt. cooler and upon receiving it realized it was too small so I immediately went back on to my Amazon app and purchased the 65 qt. (which is also great). I then went through the return process only to find I had to pay $29.95 to return the 52 qt. I reached out to the seller to explain the situation & asked if they’d waive the fee as a customer courtesy and they refused. I had to pay the fee and sent it off. They sent notification once received telling me they were reviewing my return and would let me know once they decided on refunding my money or not. They’ve paid absolutely no attention to the fact that I not only bought another of their products but a more expensive one as well. I will not purchase anything from this seller again! ... show more
