  • 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

  • Great Cooler
Color: Deep Harbor/RTIC Ice
Outstanding! Looks great and stays crazy cold! Threw some Ice Packs, beverages, and food in this and headed out on the boat in 85 degree weather on a Saturday morning. By noon the water bottles were freezing and my N/A beer had ice crystals in it. 😮 Left the cooler in the boat overnight and headed out again on Sunday, ice packs still frozen solid and kept everything cold again for another day on the water. Really happy with the purchase. ... show more

  • Kept ice 3 days in 90s and sturdy
Color: Trailblazer
I work road crew and it never left the back of the truck over last summer Darin’s on both sides and rope handles are big pluses and the rubber mesh keeps sandwiches and other things out of collecting water Build quality is amazing and makes for an awesome cutting board surface or stool Considering it’s half its yeti counterpart I’d say hands down if this breaks I’m definitely replacing it ... show more

  • Very worthwhile buy.
Color: White & Grey
Excellent cooler! I’m so happy I bought this RTIC cooler. It’s really big and spacious, but I can carry it by myself. Fits well in my car, cleans up easily, and best of all, it keeps things chilled for days with great insulation. The metal insert basket is perfect for keeping foods elevated above the ice to keep them from getting soggy when the ice melts. ... show more

  • Great quality cooler!
Color: Dark Grey & Cool Grey
The media could not be loaded. It keeps the drinks cold for over 24 hours! The build is amazing, it is really good quality! It is very sturdy and durable material, and the paint is color is just gorgeous! We use it every weekend and it works amazing!

  • Great cooler with great colors and accessories
Color: Trailblazer
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

  • Great Value Find!
Color: Trailblazer
Boyfriend loves this cooler. Says it is just like his yeti we lost last year hunting. He even prefers this one because of the basket on the lid for sandwich meat and cheese items. I love it because it was much more affordable too!
