Lifetime Hard Cooler, High Performance Ice Chest

This cooler lasts forever on camping trips. I got this to replace my classic red Igloo which normally can last the weekend, but in peak summer I usually have to add ice. It holds a ton but it NOT a small cooler. I probably would have done the 55ga to make it easier to pack up the Honda Pilot. It was a really cool bottle opener/locking area on each side of the lid and makes an excellent seat being so sturdy. This is a buy once, cry once cooler for sure.

Excellent build quality and it works very well. Had food in it for multiple days and it kept it cold the whole time. Very tight seal, great available space, and I really like the handles and the clamps

This is an excellent quality cooler at a very reasonable price. I was impressed by its build. Very solid, and the walls are thick.

This is a great cooler at a great price point. I usually put a couple a couple of plunge blocks at the bottom and then fill with cubed ice over the drinks all the way to the top. So far I've taken it to a couple of multi-day drag races, leaving it in the back of my pickup truck and it has performed beautifully. Drinks were still ice cold after 3-4 days. It's much larger than my previous Igloo Sportsman 55 cooler.

Great cooler- too heavy for one person to handle when loaded

Awesome cooler! I did thorough research on coolers because we needed something good for a festival we had coming up. We used it at Rockville this year camping for 4 days and it was a scorcher out and this cooler did the job.We opted for the dry method, where you leave the ice in the bags and it held the ice for a solid 3 days. It of course melted here and there but it kept it cool enough that everything in the cooler, including meat and dairy, stayed perfectly cold. It may have held the ice for the 4th day as well, but they came around giving out free 16lb bags of ice so of course we jumped at that offer and threw them in the cooler.Great storage capacity, it held a ton of stuff plus ice. It comes with a cutting board which can also be used as a separator and there’s little slots all the way down the cooler for different placement options, which was pretty cool. I’d never seen anything like that in a cooler.Overall most definitely satisfied! Awesome cooler and definitely does the job!

I’ve had several different brands of coolers over the years and I absolutely love this brand. This cooler has more than enough space to store 3 days of food and plenty of drinks. I was mostly impressed with the ice retention. I went on a 3 day camping trip recently and I didn’t have to add any additional ice the entire trip. By day 3 there was minimal water that I needed to drain and everything was still cold. I’m going to buy 2 smaller ones for smaller excursions. I would highly recommend this brand.

I purchased this cooler to haul frozen beef across three states in 24 hours at -10degF. I had five different coolers and this one by far performed the best. The other four were from Mammoth, Igloo, and Coleman. After two days, the Lifetime had the most Dry-Ice left. The Mammoth was a close second. the Coleman and Igloo coolers were not of the same build quality and were rated as "6-day" coolers so it is no surprise that I had to add more dry-ice to them than the others.Though these appear to be a decent build and very tough, there are a few minor drawbacks with them.First, don't expect the lock holes to be of any use. One side is stainless steel but the other side, the lid, is simply the lid's plastic. A screwdriver could pop the hole.Second, and this is actually typical of all the "rotomold" coolers, they have a good amount of mass which makes them heavier and you have to pre-cool the inside. Otherwise, ice or other frozen contents will melt just to cool down the mass of plastic.Also, the rubber seal on the lid kept coming off. It is not glued in, just tucked into a groove. It was easy to re-seat every time but annoying to take the time to do so. Also, I think the extremely low temperature of the dry-ice caused it to shrink so it now no longer seals all the way around.I have not used this cooler long-term so it will be interesting to see how it holds up. These appear to be as solid as the Lifetime folding plastic portable tables which I think hold up relatively well. And the plastic did not warp with the extreme cold temperatures.Overall, I think this cooler is a good value for a cooler of this type.
