Title: Lifetime Cooler
Post by: Jayrat on August 20, 2019, 07:06:59 AM
So I needed a new cooler, I did my YouTube research . and came across the Lifetime 55QT cooler from Walmart $97 much cheaper than the Big name brands , I put it to the test this weekend and was very impressed
3 days still ice and Ice cold beverages , drove home with it in the back of a truck with the sun beating on it still had Ice and cold Beverages .
for those of you cheap like me, 100% worth the $$ and Made in the USA

I have the Ozark Trails versions (55 & 28 qt), also by WalMart, and they work great.  This must be their newer model/line.

 That looks like Ozark Trails to me. That being said, I have a soft sided Ozark Trails and a hard sided one. They have performed really well and I've been super happy with them. I've had the hard sided one hold ice for about 5 days in the high sierra summer heat. All the while that was getting into it for cold drinks, adding more beverages and getting ice out of it for a rum an sumpthin. I tried to keep it out of the direct sun or threw my Carhartt jacket over it for an additional layer of insulation. The only upgrade that would be nice is a pressure vent so you could use dry ice in conjunction with regular ice but that's the only real upgrade I would suggest. The soft sided cooler which is significantly small hold ice all across the annual Winter Mojave Rd. Great quality coolers for a whole lot less than the more expensive brands that perform just as well and maybe sometimes better.


PS: Hysterical video!

We have one as well. And for the price and ease of purchase its a no brainer. It also has a built in bottle opener also where you lock the cooler with a padlock. And it takes on bears like none other according to their pics on the website.
