Keeps it cold!
This is a beast of a cooler. It was bigger and heavier than I thought it would be, but it absolutely keeps things cold better than any cooler I've ever had. I like the little feet on the bottom that keep it secure and prevent it from scratching what's underneath it. I personally find the closures a little difficult to open/shut - it takes some umpf and you have to be at the right angle to leverage them in/out. Otherwise, though, it is tough and does what it says it will do.

My Go-To Cooler
This cooler is my go to for larger gatherings or long days. I use it for tailgates at concerts and sporting events mostly. I also rigged it up to my paddleboard to double as a seat for long days on the water and it works great. The 26qt size is perfect - often more capacity than I need. Ice retention is great, latches are strong, and the rubber feet keep the cooler planted in my truck without sliding around.

Great!!
Love it!! Like all rotomolded coolers it’s heavy for the size and the internal space is limited due to the thick walls but it works great. Throw a frozen bottle of water in with your food and it’s good for the weekend. Great for the summer when ice melts quickly.

It has held up well so far during long camping trips. The rubber clasps on the front a pretty difficult to close at first but get easier over time. It keeps a tight seal and kept our food cold all week. If I bought it again. The only thing I would do get a size larger. Otherwise it is serving me well

Solid cooler for the discount price
Would’ve given this five stars but two things prevented it. It’s heavy and the emblem is peeling off the front. The weight doesn’t really bother me, but the wife has a bit of a struggle getting into the back of the truck. It does keep drinks cold for a long time in the heat. There’s a company out there whose name rhymes with jetty. I gave them the boot when they pulled their NRA sponsorship. This is a good alternative.

Great cooler little smaller than expected
The ORCA 20 Quart Cooler gets 4 stars! It’s perfect for my 4x4 beach trips, keeping my beer cold with ice lasting 4-5 days thanks to the durable roto-molded design. The cargo net is great for extras, and it’s easy to carry. However, it’s smaller than expected—fitting only 18 cans or a few meal containers, which feels tight. The whale-tail latches are also stiff to open. Still, its quality and compact size make it great for solo use.

Worth It
We rode out hurricane Milton in SW Florida, here's a real-world scenario for the use of this 26q cooler: >>The cooler was room temp ~76°F when 2 bags of ice (20lbs) and 2x-14oz frozen bottles of water were added at 0-hours >>The cooler wasn't opened until +10-hours later, one of the 10-lb bags of ice was replaced with a fresh bag, nothing else was removed, the lid was promptly sealed. >>The cooler was opened again at +41-hours and the ice was largely still there, and there was ~4-inches of meltwater holding steady at 34.5°F

Stayed cold for my four day trip
Coolers like this are always smaller than they appear on the outside but they work great! It fit all the food and drink I needed for a three night camping trip in ~80°f weather. My ice packs were mostly melted by the last day but the food was still chilled.

Just the right size for
Just the right size for my solo travels! Not too big or difficult to carry, but big enough to easily fit everything I need to take with me. No question that it keeps things cold, that's why I invested in an Orca. And the icing on the cake is that it's a gorgeous teal color! Very happy with the product and I would definitely recommend to others.

Great cooler. The color is vibrant and it keeps drinks very cold and last several days. It's overall bigger than I had imagined, but such a great cooler.

Great cooler made in the USA. Works well at keeping things cool, and works equally well at keeping things hit (think BBQ). great size for all your weekend needs!
