There are allot of features to the cooler It is very easy to tote around with the telescoping handle and oversized wheels. The only problem I have is that it doesn't seal properly. You can use a bungy cord to hold it down, but the lid will have a crack due to the design. Great for day trips, but if you are using for multiple days then you will most likely need to re-ice.

The construction is mostly good, but our handle does not pull out. It holds ice for days. Better than our last cooler. And the big wheels are great without being overly bulky. Hopefully costumer service will rectify our issue with the handle by either replacing the handle or the cooler itself.

So far, this cooler is almost everything I hoped. The large tires and wheelbarrow style handle gives the option of push or pull and makes steps and gravel very easy to navigate. The space inside is nice and square with a flat bottom, so stacking can be very efficient. I have two complaints. 1- the inlet to the drain is almost 1.5" above the bottom off the cooler so even if you tilt it up, it won't drain completely. 2-the lid doesn't mechanically latch. It's the same cheap feeling push to close top that the other cheap models have.

I recieved this industrial looking cooler on Saturday and was camping with it on Tuesday. Despite the initial disappointment of the other 10 people on the camping trip that this was not a generator, the cooler worked out marvelously. The four day ice rating worked well and we kept all of our food for meals in the cooler. Even with the repeated opening of the cooler, we didn't see significant ice melting until the last day, after we packed up. If there was a powered cooler option on this I'd strongly consider it, just for extra days of cooling power.

Don’t break your back trying to lift a snow sasquatch. This thing is incredible. It has wheels. It holds a ton; every bit that it looks like it should hold, unlike many other alternatives. It’s got umbrella and rod holders, a dry rack, and a serving tray. It stays is cold, even when left out in direct 100° sunshine. Circling back on the fact that It has wheels; really big ones! This thing can hang.

Super cool-er! It has amazing features. I live in Tampa and had to evacuate for Hurricane Idalia last week. We loaded up the cooler, it stayed cool for 4 days and was easy to wheel with the leverage system. I highly reccomend espesxially for price over a YETI.

I recently got my hands on the Trail Mate 70qt Cooler by Igloo, and let me tell you, it’s one solidly built cooler! I took it out on a camping trip, and it proved to be a reliable companion throughout my adventure, keeping my food and drinks refreshingly cool. The first thing that caught my attention was the sturdy construction of this cooler. It feels tough and ready for anything you throw at it. You can tell it’s made to handle rough outdoor conditions with ease. The handles are securely attached and provide a firm grip, even when the cooler is fully loaded. What impressed me the most was its insulation capabilities. The Trail Mate 70qt Cooler has some serious insulation going on. It kept my stuff chilled for days, even in hot weather. No worries about melted ice or warm drinks here! The lid seals tightly, thanks to a handy latch mechanism and a rubber gasket, keeping the cold air locked in. The design is smart and practical. The spacious interior allowed me to pack a good amount of food and beverages without any trouble. Plus, it was easy to keep things organized inside. And let’s not forget the built-in bottle opener on the side—a neat little feature that came in handy when cracking open a cold one. Cleaning the cooler was a breeze. The smooth interior surface and drain plug made it quick to get rid of any water or debris. No fuss, no mess. To sum it up, the Trail Mate 70qt Cooler by Igloo is a well-crafted cooler that impressed me with its build quality. It’s tough, keeps things cool for a long time, and the design is both functional and convenient. Whether you’re planning a camping trip, a beach day, or any outdoor adventure, this cooler has got you covered. I highly recommend the Trail Mate 70qt Cooler if you’re looking for a reliable, well-built companion to keep your refreshments chilled and ready to enjoy.

Very disappointed in this expensive cooler. It showed up in the box with what appeared to be pretty good protective pieces inside. But the bottom axle is held on by cheap plastic and it was broken right through. I was really hoping for this much money this would be a much stronger cooler. Will be returning I’m looking for a different brand with higher quality.

Used for one week at the beach. Tray inside of lid just falls when you close it. Never worked since the lever that holds it is too loose. Cover of handle has come almost completely off. Rubber seal for the dry compartment is out of place already. Worst part is, upon receiving the chest, ai realize two small knobs that hold the tray in the inside of the top lid do not hold. The bottom one just flops to the side and the tray falls when you close the lid. Tried to tighten the screw, but didn't help. Disappointed on these flaws after such an expensive lurchase. Most expensive chest I've ever bought and not very happy due to those flaws. Positive note - moves pretty good through the sand and the tie down spots on the sides and back of the chest are great.

The cooler is large in size, and his capacity is way more than enough for a large group of people looking to load up enough beverages for the night. The Igloo Trailmate has just about every option you want in a cooler for fishing, beachgoing, or camping. The ice retention is phenomenal, I loaded it with 32 pounds of ice and a 24 pack of canned beverages, and it didn’t even fill half the cooler and still had ice in it 4 days later, while the cooler was sitting outside in near hundred-degree weather. Highly recommended!
