Many companies and sporting stores make or sell rotomolded coolers. If you are interested in purchasing one, considering waiting for a sale, like the REI 20% off member sale. As is expected, the larger hard-sided coolers had a clear advantage over the soft-sided coolers.
To make transporting your Ozark Trail cooler from place to place as easy as possible, it’s important to have durable, easy-to-grip handles or straps. You can check some of the models from these cooler brands out for more information. Also, there are a lot of coolers that are cheaper than a YETI ice chest. Once again, another pretty cool feature from the Ozark Trail Premium Jumbo soft cooler is the integration of ‘Bottle Openers’. Generally, the more expensive the cooler, the better it insulates, the better the foam. The Soft Pack Cooler has a design similar to that of the Yeti Hopper Flip but costs less than half the price.
This isn’t the model we recommend for hardcore use, but for occasional use (and to spend the least) this model offers a lot of value. We particularly like the features and thoughtful design on this cooler. A single long opening makes it uncomplicated to load and easy to search. On the outside, a large zippered pocket provides a good amount of dry storage, and its duffel-style handles can be joined together for easy transportation.
We take it disc golfing and our last few beers are as cold as the first ones. After traveling and working with an old Igloo cooler for the last year and a half my parents surprised us with a brand new cooler and we are loving it! Here’s our take on the Ozark Trail 26 Quart Cooler which we think is perfect for van life. The coolers remained in the same location for the duration of the 6 day test, only being opened to snap daily progress pictures. We deliver natural American goodness to homes and businesses alike as conveniently and affordably as possible with the help of our reliable nationwide network of local distributors. Order everything from our classic 2.5 and 5 gallon glass bottles with a variety of dispensers to our entire line of glass, spring, sparkling, and sparkling essences in case packs.
They had no problems carrying the beverage through hot temperatures, and the ice can hold for as long as 24 hours before it shows signs of melting. The exterior of the cooler is made of a durable, thickly coated nylon—waterproof and tough. We recommend the RTIC Soft Pack Cooler 20 Can if you need a simple soft cooler for a lunch box or daily carrying that’s durable enough to stand up to some decent abuse and time in the sun. Canyon Coolers makes a similar model to our pick called the Pro 65 Quart Cooler.
The more capable premium models should keep ice for up to a day and a half. Ozark Trail hard-sided coolers are made of plastic that’s durable, lightweight, and fully waterproof. This comfortable, tough, waterproof backpack cooler, which holds about 36 cans, insulates just as well as any soft cooler we’ve tested. It’s lighter than any of the other comparably sized hard coolers we tested and the easiest to move around. The Ultra-Light ozark trail chair Cooler has two nylon ropes slotted through plastic handles that are easy enough to use.
REI had a member sale over Memorial Day weekend and we were able to save 20% on our cooler. We still spent more money than I’d like but at least we saved 20%. Just as with the other cooler test, we purchased four bags of ice and put the Coleman and YETI Tundra 65 in a head-to-head test. But even if you do deal with a minor quality issue, the amount of money you’ll save compared to comparable coolers is huge. Maybe you’ll get lucky and receive one without these problems.
