RTIC Ultra-Light 52 Quart Hard Cooler Insulated Portable Ice Chest Box for Beach, Drink, Beverage, Camping, Picnic, Fishing, Boat, Barbecue, 30% Lighter Than Rotomolded Coolers

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.

I bought the RTIC Ultra-Light 52-quart cooler (w/o wheels). I haven't used it yet, but based on close inspection and appearances, it is exactly what I expected and am so far pleased. The sage green color was on sale and we love it! As advertised, it is well-designed and the workmanship appears excellent. No errors detected. The double drains are a great idea. The screw in plugs are well seated and are attached. I have also bought the tray and the divider. One important selling point for me was that RTIC sells a good number of the replacement parts, so this cooler should last for years and survive any abuse we subject it to. Also, it was shipped directly from RTIC in Texas, and arrived well-packed and in excellent condition. We plan to use it during a road trip in August where I want the food to stay cool (no more than 40 degrees) for 2-3 days in the car (twice) without my having to spend hours each evening repacking the cooler and recharging the ice packs. I will be running a test in the coming weeks and will report my findings!

This brand of coolers are awesome. We have tried so many over the years . But this is a keeper!! Great storage capacity, seals tightly, and most importantly keeps everything cold for several days . Very durable and would not hesitate to purchase again if needed. We even bought a smaller version for day trips or overnight/weekend trips, our drinks were still cold at end of weekend with ice still In it, but melting.

I rarely give 5 stars but this cooler is worth it. Very light and easy to carry, load into a vehicle. Keeps items within it cold for at least 3 days without adding ice. Works as well as the ridiculously-priced Yeti.

Keeps ice very well. Well built

We love this cooler. Items stay cold, ice stays cold for 24-48 hours. It doesn't leak. The rubber things for the lid do not stay shut when we rolled the side by side but I guess it was not built for this. However I would love those to maybe snap in a different way. Other than that we are happy with the cooler. Its the perfect size for the back of the side by side. I also wish it had a little basket that would come in it for items we do not want down in the ice. I know that I can order one seperate but I feel it should come with it.

Great product for the price and keeps things cold or warm as needed. Great purchase!

I want to say I bought this cooler as an early Father's Day gift for my husband, for his landscaping company. However I am going to have to be honest and say after having to fill in with him when he needed help, I 100% bought this cooler for me.Let me set the scene. North Carolina, June 9, 2022, 10:00, already swamp butt heat (90°). Old school beat up cooler in the bed of the truck with one bag of ice. By 13:00, ice was gone. By 17:30 water was warm. 19:30 I NEEDED cold water and there was none to be found.That night I ordered the RTIC.The following Wednesday we had the RTIC cooler loaded, 2 bags of ice, 12 bottle waters, a case of cokes, and ready for the day. 93° day and the cooler set out in the sun ALL. DAY. By 20:00 there was still ice, but it didn't look like it was going to make it for the entire day. The next morning all the ice was gone, however the water was still ice cold. Husband is convinced we are sending the cooler back, but I am still standing my ground, we're keeping it.Fast forward to Sunday...and me completely forgetting about the cooler, with it's cokes and waters, still sitting in the back of the truck. I randomly walk out to get something out of the bed, see it, and decide to reach in and see how it looking.....y'all .... COLD WATER. Like out of a refrigerator cold.We had some near record high temps in NC this past week. Wednesday 95°, Thursday 96°, Friday 97°. This cooler held its own. I was beyond impressed that the drinks are as cold as the are. The husband has completely changed his mind and wants to keep the cooler.... and now we're fighting over who's cooler it actually is.10 out of 10, this cooler understands the assignment.
