It’s a no for me!

I just used mines for the third time since I purchased it. It doesn’t not hold ice as long as they say it does. Fill the cooler beverages and ice on Saturday and Monday afternoon… water! Place another large bag of ice on Monday afternoon, Wednesday…water!!! Cold water yes ice… no!!!

There are many different factors that affect ice retention. We recommend watching our “How To Get the Best Ice Retention With Your Lifetime Cooler” YouTube video. When looking into some of the negative reviews we’ve received on ice retention, we’ve found most of those customers aren’t following all of our ice retention tips and guidelines. If you have any further questions, please reach out to us at reviews@lifetime.com.

Best Cooler Ever

We just tried this cooler for one week in very hot weather and we had ice 6 days later! we do make our own 3-4 liter ice bricks, but we were so surprised that this cooler not only kept the food cold, there was actual ice in it with 30+ Celsius weather. Our favorite cooler to date by far. Highly recommend this product, Way to go Lifetime!

Very Impressed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cooler did not fail to impress! It's incredibly stout, sturdy and tough. Perfect for all of our outdoor adventures. We can pile stuff on top of it, use it as a bench or step stool, and there isn't the slightest give. Not to mention the seals and insulation on this thing are top notch – our frozen milk jugs were still completely solid after 2 days up in the mountains, and we even had most of the loose ice we put in as well. What little bit of water that had built up didn't leak at all when I accidentally tipped the cooler when trying to load it in the truck (this thing is hefty, use a friend!). Oh, and did you know it has bottle openers? How cool is that! We noticed them this trip, and can't wait make use of them in the future because who ever remembers to pack a bottle opener? We certainly don't, but now we don't have to worry about it.

Great build quality!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I put this cooler to test on the fourth of July weekend. It was my main cooler for a weekend camping trip in the hot and humid Texas heat. It held mostly meat and a few drinks. It lasted me all day Friday Saturday and Sunday no problem. The ice in the cooler could've easily lasted another 3 days. The build quality is also great on the cooler. I used the cooler as a platform to help set camp, fished from the top of it, and of course used it as a chair and didn't notice any flex on the lid. The kids creates a tight seal and I didn't notice any water leaks. Overall a great cooler and will be using it for years to come.

Solid cooler!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cooler is built like a rock doubles as a solid stepping stool (even for a 250 lbs. guy). The cooler fits a 20 lbs. bag of ice and 48 bottles of water with room to spare. I like to store my cooler in the backseat of my truck for easy access during long road trips, while unloading other coolers I would often get drenched in water while tipping coolers to get them out of the back. This is no longer the case with the seal on this cooler! After smoking our thanksgiving turkey, I wrapped it in tin foil and some towels and put it in the cooler. It held the heat so well that after 2 hours I still needed hot pads to touch the turkey.

Buy this!

We purchased this based on reviews and a video we found on YouTube. It came in and we loved it so much we went and bought the larger one as well. It definitely keeps stuff frozen! It held an ice cream birthday cake for five hours in nearly 90 degrees.

Worth every penny and more

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 3rd Lifetime cooler. I have been through several other brands around this price point and i truly believe that these coolers are worth at least twice what you pay for them. I have friends that have paid 2-3 times as much for a cooler that are in shock when mine is the only one with ice after a long weekend. This cooler holds ice extremely well, just as my other lifetimes do. The seal is much better than my older version 55. The latches are the best design out there in my opinion. In comparison to another much more expensive cooler, you can really feel these latches seal the cooler right rather than just hold it closed. The bottle opener is a nice touch, without taking up and unnecessary room. It worked on all of the bottles i tried. The cooler also feels very sturdy, without being overly heavy. I could stand on the cooler without feeling as if it was going to cave in, and I am 225 lbs. In my opinion, you aren’t going to find a better cooler for this price point or anywhere close. This cooler performs just as good or better as the coolers costing hundreds more.

Great Cooler!!

I just received this 65 quart cooler, and it’s awesome! Has plenty of room for everything we needed and keeps everything cool for a long time. It isn’t too heavy. I would say if it had wheels, it would have been much better. But over all, it’s a great cooler. I would highly recommend it!

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] EXTERNAL EMAIL - Use caution with links and attachments - REPORT ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS TO SuspiciousEmail@oge.com I received my new 65qt Lifetime Cooler the day we left for mutual assistance work in Lake Charles, LA., restoring power to those affected by Hurricane Laura. I was able to bring this amazing cooler with me, it has been in the back of the truck in extreme heat with heat indexes of 115-130 degrees. Lifetime Coolers NEVER disappoints!! It has kept our water and gatorade cold, we have to replenish the ice every couple of days which is unbelievable in these conditions. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try out your newest cooler. I am the proud owner of 3 Lifetime coolers & a few other Lifetime products. I am a “lifetime” customer. I apologize i am unable to send pics due to my employers company policies. I can’t wait to take it on our next mudding trip!

Best cooler for the price...holds the ice!

I bought this cooler on Sunday, Feb. 16th to take on my 5 day camping/vintage trailer rally and boy, did it perform great! I wasn't expecting to see ice for 5 days straight since all my other coolers have disappointed me. My boyfriend was with me and suggested I purchase a different brand because it was less expensive. I explained that I've been there, done that and won't do it again. I figured I could give my Lifetime 65 cooler a try and if it failed, I would return it. Well, it surpassed my expectations and I just may go buy a 2nd one to use at home. Thank you Lifetime for making a great product!
