Lifetime Special Edition Smoke Blue Cooler

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased because I expected long ice life to keep food cold and secure to keep raccoons out in state parks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brand new so haven’t had it out yet, but I put a few ice packs in without pre cooling and the packs lasted 4 days and they still were about half frozen. So far so good.

Happy with this purchase, keeps drinks cold for days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pretty good. Needs a drain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these coolers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the cooler, however I HATE the fact that there is no drain valve on this cooler. If it had a drain valve it would be the perfect cooler for me. I think you should make one with a drain valve and replace the one I have now!

Just the right size and works well.

Gave it a test run and everything was still chilled after being in the sun all day

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never seen a cooler with no drain plug

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Holds ice for days

I’ve had this cooler for five years. It easily holds enough food, beverages and ice for five day adventures with multiple people. I recently returned from a five day car camping and fly fishing trip in Idaho. The weather was warm but our gourmet food and ample beverages were kept cold. Great product.

I’ve had this cooler for about a year now and it’s been great. We’ve taken it to Bear lake, on camping trips, and more, and I’m always impressed by how long it keeps ice. We typically get at least 3 days of ice retention, and that’s without pre chilling the cooler or anything. Worth every cent

I just bought this cooler as a wedding gift for my cousin and it looks awesome! My wife and I both love the color. I already have a gray 28 quart, but now I want to keep this one for myself!

These are heavy duty coolers that really perform and I love the special edition color ones. We have two in different colors now. This pic is another color combo. I also love the built in bottle opener. You can never have too many coolers, haha! We have 4 different colors and sizes now. We haven't been camping with bears yet but watching the bear videos Lifetime does with their coolers is pretty cool! At least I know the racoons don't stand a chance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far happy with that I’ve only used it one time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought one of these roughly 2 years ago and for my family and vehicle size, it was a great fit. Id even keep it in the house at time close by with some cold ones. The only reason im giving it 3 stars is because the blue clip ended up snapping when so the rubber didn't seat into its groove. It may have been one of my kids tbh. That being said for such a critical component to snap from such a small thing was a big bummer. I truly used that lil guy. I unfortunately did not register back then and am doing so now in hopes to get the support I need in the event something like that happens again. Id love to continue using the brand. Love the form factor and color.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i love lifetime coolers. the only reason for a 4 is on the 28, they do not put a drain pug on it. My big ones have them but i can not use it on the golf cart. please put one on it and change more for the coolers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The price is what got my attention! Made in America and reasonable priced and well made!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this cooler a couple of weeks ago, and we absolutely love it!! We love the color and the aesthetic of the cooler. There were a couple of things that we loved a little unexpectedly, one being the latches to close the lid, they don’t require too much force to close, but they do an excellent job of keeping the lid on tightly. Another thing is the materials used for the handles is super soft and makes it easier to carry. The ice retention is outstanding. We are able to keep ice for an extended period of time, we have found ourselves using it even for our backyard picnics!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this cooler. The two-tone color gives it a clean, modern look, and the design feels very well thought out. One of my favorite features is the locking mechanisms — they feel secure and durable, which is a big plus for me as a parent of small children. It’s reassuring to know they won’t easily be able to get into it, and the added bonus of it being grizzly bear resistant is both impressive and kind of fun. Another standout feature for me is that it’s made in the USA — that matters to me, and I appreciate it when a product proudly supports local manufacturing. The top handle is great and makes it easy to carry, though I do find myself wishing it had handles on the sides as well. That said, it’s compact and lightweight enough that a team carry really isn’t necessary in most situations. As for performance: I loaded it with ice on a Thursday, and it took about five full days before the last of the ice melted. That’s seriously impressive and exceeded my expectations for a cooler this size. Overall, the Lifetime 28 Quart Cooler is sturdy, reliable, and well-designed — a great value for anyone who needs a high-performance cooler in a more compact size.
