The hinged, hard latches are much nicer than the rubber toggles used by Yeti, and others.
Only complaint is that it is very large, due to the integrated rigid handles, where competitors use handles that fold out of the way when not in use, so make sure to look up the dimensions to see if this cooler will work for you.
So far I have been able to fill it up with 20#’s of ice and about 3 days later top it off. Let it sit over the weekend and added 10#’s then it sat back in the truck again for another 4 days when I grabbed some free ice from a clients ice machine in their shop. I think it will hold ice for seven days as they say on the outside of the cooler. Don’t think there will be much ice in it and don’t know how cold the drinks would be though. I have always been skeptical about these high end coolers but this year decided the business could afford to expense one of these. So far the simple fact that I don’t have to stop for ice everyday is a plus. For one, the cost of ice everyday for the summer working months, which, here in the south is typically from end of April to end of September or into October. So I can already see that if this cooler cuts the ice reloading down to once every three to four days that will be money in the governments pocket as taxes on my income, lol!
The cooler size I have is a 30 quart. It is fairly large on the outside but the insulation does come at a price. I prefer Fiji water, just tastes good and this will easily fit two days worth of water and a few cokes or juice drinks with the 20 pounds of ice. I bought the Pelican over the others because I have other Pelican products that I am very pleased with. The Pelican is Made In USA, another plus. Now I cannot tell you if it’s “with global components” or not but hoping for the all in USA. I have not put the cooler through any abuse tests purposely because, well, it’s nearly a $300 cooler and I just can’t seem to get the money trees to grow. The hinges and lid patches do feel, look sturdy. Would they withstand a tumble off the back of a pickup truck? I would hope so but if not buying another cooler to use as a business expense to keep a little more money out of the governments greedy hands wouldn’t hurt my feelings. The seal around the lid looks like a good quality seal and when you latch the lid it is firm but not excessive.
Only downfall to a high end cooler is, thieves. I had a styrofoam cooler stolen from the back of my truck before. A $3 gas station cooler so the twinkle in a thieves eyes when they see a high end cooler is obvious. I would recommend this cooler because of the money saving aspect and for the quality of the Pelican. This will literally save me enough money this summer to pay for itself.
In the pictures the 30qt is stocked with the following: 6 sodas, 4 energy drinks, 4 big containers of soup (* the ones you find in the grocery store deli area *), 5 frozen dinners, 2 burritos, and 6 packs of breakfast sausage sandwiches...Here’s the best part - it’s being cooled with 2 Pelican 5lb Ice Packs... Which I highly recommend not only for their superior longevity over traditional ice, but for keeping your meals from getting soggy or full of ice water.. These ice packs were only able to get 60% frozen but that’s only because of the cheap hotel freezer I was using, I anticipate getting at least 2.5-3 days of 30-40 degree temperatures out of it with how often I open and close the cooler with the quantity of food and drinks I have in there. During 2 days I maintained a temperature of 30 degrees
Weight: This is a heavy cooler, especially when loaded full.. I haven’t weighed it but I would say it feels like 40-50lbs when loaded.
Leaks: No leaks like others have reported.
Space: you can fit quite a bit in this cooler even slightly past the fill line due to the concave lid.
Ice retention: when the cooler and contents re properly prechilled expect 3.5-4 days. You can extend this with ice packs that have a freezing point of 28 degrees or less. The pelican ice packs I’m using not only fit well but work surprising well.. I’ve pulled the packs out with ice froze to them after being in there for a day.

•A considerar que el color gris no es sólido-como lo muestra la imagen-, tiene variaciones de tono, no es defecto, así es el diseño.
•La retención del hielo es muy buena, solo he tenido oportunidad de probarla 4 días y las bebidas seguían frías y tenia la mitad del hielo.
•Considera que sigue siendo una hielera, por lo tanto, el hielo tiene perderse con el tiempo, si no se carga suficiente, tiende a consumirse más rápido.
Holds a cold chill for 4 to 5 days with proper ice and ice packs/technique.
My wife was so mad when I bought it, now we can't go in trips without it.
I even keep it in my car so when I spontaneously do groceries I don't have to rush home. Food will stay good for hours in there, and if you buy dairy or meat, just buy a small $2 bag of ice OR a couple tubs of ice cream they will do the same thing and you can eat em later.
Don't look back, buy this now. Enjoy!
