[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cooler is amazing! Our family used it over the holidays to keep our beer cold our pies cold and even our leftovers. We filled the cooler with ice on Monday and it still has ice in it(Friday). The bottle openers work well with stubby bottles, long neck bottles, twist off and pop off bottles as well. It even works as a step stole and a chair. This is my first lifetime cooler and it won't be the last. I'm excited to take this bad boy on our biking/camping trips next year! #beatcooleroutthere

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got my hands on the new 65 qt Lifetime cooler. This thing is the Thunder Beast of coolers, tough and insulated against the elements. *Warning*- For the people adventuring solo. This cooler is heavy when you get it full, so pack it after you place it in your vehicle or make sure you have a friend. This is typical of a cooler that can handle the extremes like this lil Thunder Beast. It's a BIG cooler, lift accordingly. Looks like the seal on the lid got relocated to a better spot and its thicker, I dumped mine on it's side and it didn't spill. *My wife thanks you. The bottle openers are on the corner. At first I was like awwwwwh how cute, then I used them, my cuteness went from awwwwww to awwwwwwsome in a hurry. There is a little notch under the opener perfect for bottle to fit and leverage down as you pop that top. It fit nicely in the back of my Wrangler and my dog could still jump out. I brined two 15 lbs turkeys in it the day before Thanksgiving, then cleaned it out and put some energy drinks and ice in it. We drove round the whole weekend and found black friday shoppers and handed them some much needed caffeine. We were in an out of the cooler 100 times and never needed to replace the ice. 5 days and still going strong. I jumped on the lid, hey it's got a 5 year warranty…….why not? No problem. It felt secure and solid. Let's not forget I named it my Thunder Beast. The lid has a texture, which is why I didn't create a epic fail. So basically it's safer than a barstool to dance on.

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!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the lifetime coolers pretty extensively. I took the previous model of cooler on a week long camping trip in the middle of July. In that trip we brought all of our food for the week in two coolers. In that time I bought ice for my cooler twice. I thought that was pretty incredible. I drove all around Yellowstone National Park with my coolers on the roof of my car. Where they were beaten up by heat, bugs, dust and dirt. Everyone else in my part had to buy ice ever day. I simply drained mine twice and added ice. It was fantastic. I bring that up to say that this cooler has performed every bit as good as its predecessor. I have had this cooler in the bed of my truck for almost 3 weeks. It has been everything from a cooler to a step stool and a table. I am doing this review in November. So it is generally cooler outside already. I actually did not need to add ice. Because the coldness of the cooler from sitting in garage overnight kept all of my food cool the entire rest of the next day. A few of the features I liked are the two bottle openers/locks for the cooler. Because I have left it in the bed of my truck it has been easy to make it secure. I also like that when you close the cooler is really seals tight. You have to pop the lid up pretty good to break the seal when you open it. Which is a huge win. I know that this cooler is keeping all the pressure inside. Way better that other coolers I have used that immediately pop open when you release the clips. I have kids that play all the time with things. Mine like to open the clips of the cooler and pull it down again. Keeping the lid sealed tight with out the clips being locked was a really nice feature to me. These are durable, keep things cool for a long time, and are quality products. The other piece I love about this cooler and the other provided by Lifetime is the affordability. You will never find the quality and features of this cooler for this price anywhere else.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 65qt cooler is amazing. It is the first cooler that we have found where we can put 1gallon milk jugs side-by-side, leaving the rest of the cooler with plenty of space to put our other food items. The seal on the cooler is incredible and stops almost all of the water from exiting the cooler when it is tipped on its side. The latch system is really easy to use. We've had other coolers in the past with hinges made of plastic that fail over time and we know we won't have that issue with this cooler because the hinge is a metal rod that goes through the lid and the cooler so we don't see how this could fail as our other coolers' hinges have in the past. It also has a wide drain plug for quick draining of water when you're ready to empty out excess water. Lastly, the ice-retention is pretty amazing on this cooler. Ice lasts for days where-as with other coolers we've owned the ice usually lasts 1.5 - 2 days if we're lucky. This is hands down the best cooler that we have ever owned.

Awesome cooler, too heavy!

Cant wait to try, army grade stuff!!

Seems like a good solid cooler, I will know more about how it holds up in about 2 years.
