They've put much thought into the design of this cooler and it's very functional. This cooler keeps ice for several days and is by far better than most cooler's out there. Its heavy duty, rubber wheels make it easy to move around.

Very happy with purchase - works as well as other brands for what I needed. Big plus is the preinstalled wheels and drag handle. I like the upright stance of it. Sturdy, well built and great price!

Purchased this prior to a trip to Lake Havasu a few weeks ago. We have gone through a bunch of cheap cooler and they don't fare well in these extreme conditions. We were able to load the cooler with prechilled beer and drinks along with fruits, snacks like string cheese, and our sandwiches. It worked great throughout the trip and we would bring a 20lb bag each morning to refill and empty out some of the water in the bottom. I prelubed the drain gaskets with oil before we used it and not a single drip at all. The basket is useful to put small items you want to keep cool but not wet. Having the wheels is a lifesaver and allowed us to stack a heavy bag on top and wheel down to the docs. I feel like it was a gear purchase at a great discounted price of $99.

We have been pleased with this cooler and how rugged and sturdy it is. The wheels easily handle the gravel parking lot at our marina even with cooler loaded and it seems to keep ice on the boat for a long weekend on the water. The depth for tall items is great and basket handy.

Still ice in the cooler after 5 days! Helps to chill down the interior in advance of putting food in. Froze whatever food I could in advance. Having wheels and a long handle are a real plus!

I Love this cooler!! I took it to a large outdoor party. Of course you had a collection of the high dollar brands there. This lead to multiple people asking about mine. This cooler doubles as a great seat because of the taller height. The wheels and telescoping handle are sturdy and made this so easy to move. None of the $300-$500 coolers had those features. After a day in the sun and a late evening of constant traffic in and out of the cooler I returned home. I decided to test the cooler. I threw it in the garage and it kept ice for 5 days in 100 degree Arkansas heat. I am very happy with this purchase. I have looked at Yeti,Pelican and other high End brands for over a year but just couldn't justify the cost. I actually like this one better. This is a great cooler for the money!

I can't speak for others' experiences with this cooler but I've found it to be a great product. I own a Yeti, RTIC and Orca cooler. All perform equally well, even this one. If you purchase one of these coolers you need to understand what it will and won't do. If you want a cooler that will hold your food, freshly packed game & fish at stable near freezing temps for a few days it will do just that. But if you simply want a cooler to hold beer & drinks with frequent openings don't complain that ice only lasted 4 hours (especially if you put the drinks in there warm). I've camped with this cooler in excess of 5 days in 90-100 degree heat. I filled it with a layer of beer cans on the bottom, frozen meats on top a layer of frozen bottled water on top and a 20lb layer of ice. Here is what happened. The beer cans froze and burst(won't do that again).The meats had to be thawed daily (which kinda sucked) and the waters stayed mostly frozen solid the entire trip. By the end of 5 days camping I still had A LOT OF ICE! People complaining of no retention after a few hours or a day are exaggerating & have no experience using a roto molded cooler. They are not party coolers where a frequent in & out of the cooler is to be expected. Can they be used that way? Sure. But don't expect 5-7 days of ice. If your complaining about the difficulty to open the rubber latches, stick to $20 coolers. It's designed to close tightly for ice retention & bears (with a lock of course). For the $ this cooler can't be beat. A comparable cooler by size & make would easily cost $60-180 more.

This is the best overall cooler we found over a 2-week search & research. Very heavy-duty exterior. Even certified by the USDA's Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee (which sounds "hoky", but is) a real response for equipment durability and actually exposes equipment to Grizzly Bears to see if the equipment can endure. This one does. This Member's Mark Cooler has more and better features than a comparable Yeti, that sells for much more. Having the built-in wheels is a big advantage for when the cooler is loaded with ice and "grub". The 2" drain hole will allow fast emptying of ice melt. The wire basket lets you keep items cooled without having to dunk them in ice or chilled water ... much more sanitary! The height is also a perfect camp stool! So durable I'm sure it will last 100 years. Maybe not... but a long, long time. We just can't say enough great things about it.

So I've had this cooler for about 2 months and used it for a few gatherings of friends. It holds 2 cases of longnecks pretty easily and 20-30lbs of ice ( stand up one case on floor then add ice , lay others on ice,add ice,repeat....) well most gatherings are on Saturday evenings, so drinks are iced by noon. After all the open/closing on Saturday and Sunday there will still be ice on Wednesday( very little but ice). All this in the 98+ degree heat of south Texas. The cooler is under a covered patio, but its still hotter than Hades out there. So it holds ice well, its easy to move because it has wheels and a telescoping handle, its lockable and it has a built in bottle opener. Not Bad for the $$$......

Glad I didn't go full price. Not sure if we got a faulty cooler but ice melts just as fast in this cooler as it does in all coolers.
