Campers looking for something straightforward may appreciate this simple yet effective cooler, designed with storage in mind and featuring a basic latch system. Plus, its superior insulation keeps ice frozen solid for over four days!
This cooler comes equipped with a basket and dividers to store different types of foods. Furthermore, its hinges and latches are of superior quality for ease of transport between campsites.
Rotomolded construction
No matter if you’re searching for trophy fish or simply needing something cold and free of sand on the beach, having a high-quality camping cooler is an essential piece of gear. Many modern models use rotomolded plastic technology which produces thicker shells which are stronger and more durable. They’re also better at keeping ice cool while keeping pests at bay.
Construction techniques used in premium hard sided coolers fall into two broad categories: rotational molding (rotomolding) and injection molding. Injection molding uses multiple pieces of plastic fused together with insulated foam, but has some drawbacks; for instance, injection-molded coolers may crack under pressure due to not possessing the single, uninterrupted form that rotomolding provides; furthermore, their thinner walls make them less resilient against rough conditions than their counterparts. Some manufacturers provide accessories like tray systems or integrated cutting boards as part of their coolers as well.
NeverFlat wheels
No matter if you are an occasional camper or dedicated outdoor adventurer, finding a wheeled cooler that matches your camping style and needs is of the utmost importance. Evaluate how long you plan on staying at each campsite, how many people will accompany you, and whether or not open-flame cooking will occur often enough; look for one with thick insulation to keep your food and beverages cold for as long as possible.
Basic plastic wheeled coolers may be less durable and thermally efficient than their rotomolded counterparts; however, they still work for shorter trips or day adventures.
Consider investing in a premium rotomolded model such as the Yeti Tundra Haul for maximum ice retention and durability. It features marine-grade rubberized latches with StrongArm handles designed for heel-friendly towing across rocky terrain, accepts RTIC’s tie-down kit for added flexibility, is bear-resistant, can be locked with its included key and includes marine grade rubberized latches to seal all seams against water leakage – ideal if camping near bear country!
Strongarm handle
This cooler is ideal for camping trips, beach outings or any outdoor adventure. It features a capacity of 64 cans plus ice, so you’re never without cold drinks during your journey. Furthermore, its cargo net attachment provides convenient storage of utensils, napkins and snacks while its comfortable side handles ensure easy carrying with secure grips for easy bear-proof locking (locks sold separately). Additionally, bearproof locks (sold separately) allow secure closure.
This heavy-duty cooler features three inches of PermaFrost insulation to keep food and beverages cold for longer than other models in its class. With rugged construction and convenient rope handles, this is an excellent choice for camping trips and fishing expeditions alike. Additionally, the stainless steel blade has been coated with an antirust protective layer. Furthermore, there are dual guards with pre-drilled holes for attaching rope, pre-drilled lanyard loops for hanging the knife from, an insulated bottle opener, lanyard loops, as well as dual guards pre-drilled for additional attachment points! Finally comes an insulated bottle opener included for convenience!
Comfort-grip steel handles
Although most coolers provide standard carry and storage solutions, some models go above and beyond – for instance Roam’s 45QT model stands out thanks to its handy storage basket with removable cup holder, an internal divider which doubles as cutting board, multiple tie-down points for secure carrying options, as well as one-handed opening of its insulated lid that offers confidence-inspiring sturdiness.
Food baskets, dividers, and side tables can greatly improve usability and storage capabilities of any kitchen, and many brands even include built-in solar chargers and speakers to help with music playback during food preparation and preparation.
Some coolers even include bear-proof seals to provide additional protection from wild animals or other hazards, which is especially useful for camping in remote areas or bear country. Furthermore, certain manufacturers offer generous warranties on their products such as Orca and Roam’s lifetime warranties on hard-sided coolers while Yeti Tundra and Roadie collections come with five year warranties.
