Spacious, easy to roll, and keeps everything cold-
I've been really impressed with the Coleman SPORTFLEX 42-Can soft Cooler with wheels. The size is perfect for day trips or beach outings-it holds a lot without feeling bulky. The wheels make a huge difference, specially when it's fully loaded, and the handle is sturdy and easy to pull. I also like the extra storage pockets for smaller items. It keeps drinks and food cold for several hours, even in warm weather. The material feels durable and easy to clean. Overall its a very practical and convenient cooler if you don't want to carry heavy loads

Spacious, easy to roll, and keeps drinks cold—grea
I recently started using the Coleman SPORTFLEX 42-Can Soft Cooler with Wheels for weekend trips and outdoor events, and I’ve been really impressed. The wheels roll smoothly across both grass and pavement, and the handle feels sturdy even when the cooler is fully loaded. It offers plenty of space for drinks and snacks, and with ice packs, everything stays cold for hours. I also appreciate the soft-sided design since it’s much easier to store than a bulky hard cooler. The straps and zippers feel durable, and cleaning is quick and easy with a simple wipe-down. Overall, this cooler is practical, well-designed, and perfect for tailgates, beach days, and camping trips.

The Perfect Companion for Any Outing!
This Coleman SPORTFLEX 42-Can Soft Cooler with Wheels is an absolute game-changer! I've owned several coolers, but this one truly stands out for its convenience and performance. The capacity is perfect for family trips, tailgating, or a day at the beach, easily holding drinks and snacks for a large group. What I love most is the design with wheels and a telescoping handle. It makes transport effortless, even when fully loaded. No more struggling to carry a heavy, bulky cooler! In terms of insulation, it performs exactly as advertised. My ice and chilled items stayed cold for an impressive amount of time, even under the hot sun. The soft-sided construction is a huge plus because it's lightweight and easy to store when not in use. If you're looking for a reliable, spacious, and incredibly easy-to-move cooler, look no further. Highly, highly recommend!

Looks really nice love the color
A seem has already started to come apart . Has lots of pockets yet the wheels are to small for rolling across a grass field

Hello, thank you for your feedback on the Coleman® SPORTFLEX™ 42-Can Soft Cooler with Wheels. We’re glad to hear you found the extra pockets useful, but we're sorry to learn about the seam issue and your experience with the wheels on grassy terrain. Durability is a top priority for us, so a seam coming apart this early is not something we expect or take lightly. While our coolers are built for portability and convenience, we understand that real outdoor use, especially across uneven surfaces like grass, can reveal design limitations. The wheels on this model are designed for smoother surfaces like pavement, campsites, or boardwalks, and may not perform as well on softer or rougher ground. We’d like to learn more about the seam issue and make this right. If you require our assistance, please contact us using our Contact Us form on the following website: https://www.coleman.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat so we can help you further. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9 am – 8 pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Coleman Consumer Care

Too pricey
For the price, I expected bigger and better. The wheels and telescopic handle are rugged enough. I don't like the flap on top, wish it was a solid top, with a large, zippered pocket on top instead. The rest of the features were okay. We had a much cheaper one bought elsewhere, was the perfect size, loved all the features, but the wheels and handle were not rugged at all.

Awesome for traveling
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great soft cooler. It rolls with ease and gas extension handle as well as side handles for carrying. The top has a velcro access panel for quick grabs but also zips all the way open. Great for a quick day trip or picnic or day down at the softball fields for drinks. Really enjoy having this.

Easy to carry
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used this for a beach trip and it was very easy to carry with the wheels. It was also light weight and the perfect size for a family to add all our cold drinks and food. My one complaint is that it very easily leaked during use

Very convenient and roomy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never had a soft cover cooler of this size and I wasn’t sure how it would keep things cold but it definitely did not disappoint. It fit so much better in my car and worked so much better for our family adventures. Having wheels and so much space makes it so convenient and easy to use and it doesn’t weigh much when empty making it easier to store when not being used. Great cooler and nice color.

Sportflex Soft Cooler is totally fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Sportflex 42 can Soft Cooler on wheels and discovered I no longer need a hard bulky plastic cooler to drag on trips or to the beach! It is so attractive and has so many pockets to add additional necessities but is so easy to travel with since it is on wheels. It kept my cans nice and cool and was attractive while doing so. A lot of people asked me where I got it! Great product! Highly recommend!

great design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Sportflex cooler to use as my weekend cooler and weekday lunch box. This cooler is packed full of great features. It has a nice telescoping handle and pulls very nice. The cooler is sturdy when it's loaded. I love the top insulated grab hole - that is so cool!! you can pull an item out without having to unzip the whole top and letting your cool air out. Fantastic!!!
