Best cooler?

[keithkz]

I'm looking to purchase a new cooler (ASAP) and want to know everyone's opinion on who makes the best.  I want a hard cooler vs. a soft one and it MUST have wheels on one end and the carrying handle on the other end....I'm done with carrying those things. My wife and I have twin 5 year olds so it needs to be decent size.  Thanks.

Keith we've had the Igloo Cube since we bought the boat in 2008. It's the perfect size. Not too big not too small and it has a collapsible handle and wheels! It fits perfectly in either the portside or front gate area. We love it! /monthly_2017_07/large.image.jpeg.90bff2b864a1f7b0ae526630f282e0f8.jpeg

Have one of those as well but don't use it on our boat. It's not a Yeti but it seems to work pretty well for short periods (a day) plus it's relatively inexpensive.

Thanks for the feedback so far.  I was looking at this one and wondered if anyone had it?

We have the "land" version of that cooler (not the marine) though we never use it on the boat. It works great. We just got back from 4 days vacationing at a friends place and the ice we had - basically 4 quart size frozen bottles of water and 1 half gallon - still had some ice in them when we left. Milk, fruit and various other food and beverages stayed cold.  We did not have any uncooked food in there.  We always start with COLD food or drinks in it though

Just like those Yetis. But just too expensive........

I liked the size and shape and it fits very well in the boat.......
