This is a wonderful cooler that keeps ice. I bought it because my other cooler was just to heavy. It reminds me of my childhood as my parents had a similar Coleman cooler.
I have been around this model cooler for about a decade and they keep getting cheaper and easier to break. Coleman as a whole does make products worth purchasing but this cooler is a flop. I wish people would stop buying this garbage cooler and read the reviews before having bad experiences later down the road.
I know the cooler looks appealing but it does not keep ice for a full day. The latch breaks after 6-8 months. The top will just fall out due to the moisture weakening the glue. And the patches that hold the lid on, will come loose and again another home repair.
I have a marine cooler made by Coleman and it is not only better quality but holds ice for 3-5 days easy. It I also priced around 80% less than this model so it’s unfortunate for aesthetics, this cooler is still on the market.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I own two of these and use them regularly. I have used them on 4-5 day camping trips in the middle of summer and only had to refill with ice once. If you properly ice down the cooler and put drinks in them that are already cold it will hold ice for 2-3 days. They aren't going to hold ice as long as the modern rotomolded coolers but they do not cost as much and aren't as ugly. Would give five stars but the latch isn't as reliable as the version my dad has from the 70s.
This is the most traditional and vintage look cooler you can buy!! It works so well. It stayed full of ice and super cold for our desert trip for 4 days. We never had to add ice! Best purchase!
I'd been wanting a cooler like this for long time. My company gives really cool awards from a catalog for every 5 years service. Each time the awards are more expensive. For my 15 years service I chose this cooler because it stated up to 4 days staying cold. It doesn't. Ice is melted by the end of 1st day. Still cold into the 2nd day but you have to drain water and add more ice. My lighter plastic cooler with wheels did just as good. Soooooo disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
