Overall, we are really pleased that Igloo added to its product line coolers that can directly compete with well-known designs on the market.
We pay attention to that variable to know if a cooler needs to always be upright. Some unique closures include the powerful magnetic seam of the YETI Hopper M30 Soft Cooler and clasp of the OtterBox Trooper 20 Cooler, which don’t allow leaks. The eco-friendly design features a recycled polyester upper and recycled nylon bottom.
If your needs are modest, and so is your budget, these coolers offer good insulation at a fraction of the cost. For most soft coolers, dry ice will burn the interior materials. Instead, you should use freshly frozen cubed ice, ice blocks, or reusable ice packs. Soft cooler totes are long, slender, and streamlined against your side.
When you create your custom soft cooler, we not only want your design to shine but your last soda and snack to be as satisfying as the first. At Custom Branding, we know how important it is to have your soft cooler keep everything perfectly chilled when you’re going from tailgate to picnic to the beach. This comfortable, tough, waterproof backpack cooler insulates just as well as any soft cooler we’ve tested. As with all soft coolers, you shouldn’t leave the RTIC Soft Pack Cooler out in the sun or resting on very hot surfaces like the back of a pickup truck or on top of a picnic table for a long time.
Unfortunately, the seams leaked water all over the rig before we even got to the water’s edge and then drained within only a couple of hours of use. We could stuff lots of goods inside or squish the cooler down for storage. The slender shape doesn’t bounce around and feels smooth to carry over the shoulder. But if you view it as your long-term cooler companion, it’s worth its high price.
Yeti officially replaced its infamous Hopper BackFlip 24 with the Hopper M20 this spring, and overall, we’d say it’s an upgrade. First, the M20 has the same insulation bona fides as its predecessor. We placed a small bag of ice in it with a few cold beverages, and the ice didn’t fully melt till 30 hours later in temperatures around 70 degrees. Even with the ice fully melted, our drinks remained cool for about 48 hours.
The RTIC 65 weighs 36.5 pounds and measures 32 by 17 by 18 inches on the outside. Unlike several other competitors, the RTIC 65 has two drainage ports for quick cleaning and draining. RTIC also sells a 45-quart version if you need something smaller. Simplicity-Bag It Perfect for Carrying Your Lunch to Work or School Who needs a brown bag lunch when you have a Bag-It.
We’ll always have a spot in our gear closet for a igloo water cooler cooler, but soft coolers have proven to be just as essential. They weigh less and are easy for one person to grab and quickly transport from the deck to the truck bed. All coolers were tested extensively in our Brooklyn testing lab. We then sent the coolers to field testers for additional insights. We packed the coolers with the stated capacity of cans ; we also filled the coolers with ice once the cans were packed.
Considering the attractive igloo trailmate, it seems to be a move in the right direction. It has taken us a few years to recommend a wheeled cooler simply because none have seemed built to last longer than a season or two—especially in the handle. Once loaded with ice, drinks, and food, a 37-pound cooler can more than double in weight.
If proven defective, product returns or exchanges must be handled directly with the manufacturer. Then, when you arrive at the store of your choice, use the Instacart app to notify us. Depending on the store, a shopper or store employee will bring the groceries to your car, or you can pick them up at the designated area. We review a lot of coolers here at TheCoolerZone (in fact we are the largest cooler review site on the internet!) and it can be a bit overwhelming trying to compare all of them. To make things easier, we have compiled this cooler comparison chart. On the bottom, we have a strong compression molded base that provides stability and a firm structure to the whole bag.
