Cooler
Only used it twice but so far so good. Had one I used for years but top finally came apart. Looking for years with this one.

Just what we needed
This was a replacement of our less insulated cooler and it served its purpose. It has been primarily used in summer tournaments where we needed it the most. Out in the heat it kept our items nice and cold. It is nearly identical in interior space to our previous cooler but obviously larger because of the insulation. The empty cooler weight is fine but manageable when filled with items and ice. I normally kept in our wagon. The zipper does take a bit of force to use but not to the point that it can’t be moved. The pocket up front is useful but limited. Storage for non-perishables such as forks would have been nice but we would have to opt for the hard cooler instead which adds weight. An easy access cover would make it more convenient but we would sacrifice the insulation. Overall, we’re happy with it despite not having some convenient features such as storage.

Zipper broke after 5 uses
Title says it all. Gave it two stars because it kept drinks cool but the zipper began catching on the first use and broke after a handful of times. I did not use it frequently and kept it clean and indoors. Tried to file a warranty claim but it was past the year warranty. I would buy elsewhere.

um. wow. keep looking
Sadly, I've bought two. They do not keep ice for days . . . not even close and the zipper just falls apart. I'm stunned. My next email will be asking for a refund.

30 Can Ultra-Tough Soft Cooler
Not as good as the older soft coolers. The bottom of the new one sweats. My old one never did that.

Excellent
Our last one failed because the zipper separated, but it lasted 6 years. . As long as the zipper holds out, and I can get another 7-8 years, I’ll keep buying them.

Doesn’t keep Ice
We’ve not had any luck with this cooler. Ice doesn’t last longer than a day.

Nice Cooler!
Nice cooler for the price. Keeps everything cold and iced for rounds of golf. Haven't filled it for a long term ice check yet.

Good Value Product
Cooler maintained food and beverage products cold for a whole day trip with minimal concerns about getting too hot or needing to replace ice. However, we found that the zipper can be difficult to operate at times. After cleaning the zipper with warm water and soap, then using the provided lubricant the condition improved but still occasionally had difficulty opening and one on occasion the teeth even sealed crooked causing additional difficulty with opening and closing. Currently waiting for approval to return unit but status is still pending .

It’s a replacement for one that finally failed, if I wasn’t happy with articles , wouldn’t have purchased another.

Great Cooler – Sturdy, Stylish & Perfect Size!
I'm very happy with my 20 Can Ultra-Tough Soft Cooler, Patriot! It's well made, durable, and the perfect size for day trips, picnics, or everyday use. It keeps everything organized and looks great, too. The only thing I would change is the white straps-they're nice looking, but I'm a little worried they'll show dirt over time. Other than that, it's an excellent cooler, and I would definitely recommend it!

Really AWESOME!
This cooler is built SO well! We are seniors and bought the bigger one for picnics, boat trips and to use as a cooler when friends come over. for cans and bottles of drinks. When it is full it is rather heavy for just one of us to carry but it has nice handles on both ends plus the carrying strap so we both carry it. We can take it with us on our kayak trips, too, since it's waterproof. It's truly a perfect cooler all the way around. So glad we got the bigger one.

Zippers
I have been using this everyday since I got it. The zippers are already coming apart and its separating. very poor quality, so far the 20 can is holing up ok.
