Nice Cooler, no need to spend more
This is a nice cooler, big enough but not too big. This holds approximately 30 bottles of beer and will take a full 15 lb bag of ice. I'm not finding the ice holds for 5 days but it does compare to a Yeti. I bought this for my husband. He really likes this cooler for the money and also commented on the nice shade of blue (we got the darker color).

Disappointed in this company
Nice cooler, but when left in the sun( this is why you have a cooler) the top layer of plastic starts to separate and bubble up, it is obviously thin and not firmly glued to the insulation a real bummer for an expensive cooler. Have several others (which you can't mention in a review) and they do not fail this test. Should have purchased one of the others mentioned above.

Hi, thank you for your candid feedback regarding the Coleman® Pro 45-Quart Hard Cooler. We are genuinely sorry to hear that the top layer of plastic on your cooler began to separate and bubble when exposed to the sun. This is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have, especially with a cooler designed for outdoor use and priced accordingly.
We understand your frustration, particularly when you have other coolers that have performed better under similar conditions. Your detailed description of the issue, specifically the bubbling and separation due to apparent thinness and insufficient adhesion to the insulation, is incredibly valuable. This feedback highlights a critical area for improvement in our manufacturing process and material selection. However, it's generally not advisable to put Coleman coolers in direct sunlight. Keeping them in the shade helps the ice last longer and maintains a cooler internal temperature. Direct sunlight can cause the cooler to heat up, reducing its efficiency and potentially causing the ice to melt faster.
Please know that we take all customer feedback seriously, as it helps us to continually improve the quality and durability of our products.
If you require assistance with the product, please contact us directly via our official Coleman website contact-us page https://www.coleman.com/support/contact-us or through Live chat, and we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you and have a good day!

Cooler
Doesn't hold ice for days, but it's durable and a nice color.
coleman.com response
Hello, thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you find the Coleman® Pro 45-Quart Hard Cooler durable and enjoy the color. While it’s true that this cooler may not hold ice for several days like some premium models, there are a few tips that can help you maximize its ice retention:
1. Pre-Chill the Cooler: Before packing it, place a bag of ice or some frozen water bottles in the cooler for a few hours to bring the internal temperature down. This helps slow ice melt once you load your items.
2. Use Block Ice or Ice Packs: Large blocks of ice or reusable ice packs melt more slowly than regular ice cubes. Combining both types can give you better results.
3. Minimize Air Gaps: Fill the cooler as much as possible. Empty space causes ice to melt faster, so consider adding extra ice or towels to fill any gaps.
4. Keep It Closed: Limit how often you open the cooler, and keep the lid closed tightly to maintain a consistent internal temperature.
5. Store in the Shade: Keeping the cooler out of direct sunlight significantly improves ice retention. Try covering it with a towel or blanket if shade isn't available.

Almost perfect
The cooler is great...the handles are not. They clank and bang and are generally annoying.

Yeti look alike
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The cooler is amazing. It’s built just like a yeti cooler. I like that you can put a generous amount of items in here to keep cold. The insulation for cooling is awesome. Very portable to carry anywhere. It doesn’t have wheels that’s the only downside. But it’s great!

Built like a tank with enough insulation to last n
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While researching coolers I found this one claims 4 days cooling, fully loaded with ice and cans it lasts four days and is still cold with Ice remaining in the already thawed water. For even longer cooling the oversized drain makes draining water out a breeze and makes it easy to top of the ice and keep everything inside cool. The best is light enough for one person to move even fully loaded. The lock mounts may not be near proof but they're think and durable and tough to break into. The handles are also comfortable and sturdy. This ice chest is the king when it comes to quality and reliability.
