Customer Reviews

Keeps Ice, No Drain
This cooler did indeed do a very good job keeping ice for days at a time. If the ice didn't stay frozen, the water did stay cold for at least 5 days. The one MAJOR problem I had with this cooler is that it does not have a drain. Every other version of this cooler available comes with a drain except this one. I only wish I had realized that before I had bought it. Unfortunately though, this is the only Max Cold cooler that has wheels which was the major reason I bought it other then the Max Cold feature.

Great small cooler
I have owned this 40 qt model for 3 or 4 years and think that this cooler is great. Its a nice size for a family of 2-4 for a picnic or weekend camping trip (I use this cooler for the stuff that has to stay cold and a large plastic tote for other stuff like buns). Its pretty small compared to 60, 80, 100 qt models so I'd look at in a store before ordering.

Its nice to have the wheels (the 60 qt model does as well but I don't think the 80 or 100 qt models do). The larger size models also have a drain which I did not care about (this one is small enough to wash in a larger kitchen sink and I mainly use ice packs).

It works as advertized. On a recent camping trip we left on a Friday in 90 degree weather and came home Sunday and the ice packs were still frozen. A friend had also pored some ice into the cooler and the ice was still frozen/sticking to the ice packs when we got home.

design flaw
the lid to this cooler is removable, however when it is in the open position, mine just falls right out of the hinges and topples backwards; and it is still new. also, without a drain you need to empty out your food, then tip the whole thing. not a smart 5-day cooler, but could be used to plant some flowers in if you drill holes through the bottom.
