If you are one of those campers who understand that the experience is all about roughing it, Cozy-Cushy-Comfort is always left at home when we travel to the campsite.
Home is where we leave behind the motorized grind of daily living, the microwave cooker's and infrared remote controllers. We leave behind our high-tech, circuit board enriched, digital read-out thermostatic controlled refrigerator, complete with filtered water & ice dispenser and head for the hills where wild creatures run free. Coleman... thanks for thinking about the ice melt ratio of our 62qt wheeled Xtreme.
During a typical one week camping trip probably you fill the Coleman Xtreme at least twice with ice. This is when you replenish low food supplies and gather more ice.
This campsite routine will keep your food cold enough until a trip to a market can be scheduled.
This is the perfect cooler for your family. Holds a lot and really keeps food cold. This model with wheels makes it easy to move. Good size for the day or a weekend (the larger Coleman Xtreme coolers - without the wheels - is intended for longer trips to the lake, etc).
The Coleman Xtreme wheeled cooler is great for everyone. You will really love it because of how big this cooler really is and the fact that you don't have to carry it. All that you have to do it pull it along. So never have to worry about the cooler being way to heavy to carry.
Because of its wheels features you could not be happier and you don't have to treat the handles and hinges with a reasonable amount of care. The handle & wheels are nice, and seemed like it could handle decent usage. The one feature it is missing is a shelf to keep things like cold cuts, that can't get wet, out of the water.
After a couple camping visits and picnic events the wheels and handles are still firmly attached and the drain plug is not fallen off.
Do not expect a miracle in its ability to keep ice from melting until some pre-described moment. A little ice melt is way down on the scale of important things to worry about when you are camping. Do worry more about the bears!
Coleman Xtreme cooler is the perfect fit for a few days worth of food. Fits nicely in the back of your mini-van and left plenty of room for tent and firewood. Just the right size for a family outing, party or extended trip in the woods.
This cooler does the job of keeping everything cold and holds a lot. But be aware that even though the lid is fine for normal use, it is not so difficult to open as probably some coolers that you have. Raccoons can get into this cooler very easily so don't leave it out overnight. It fit nicely under the bench of a picnic table and that should be enough to do the trick of keeping out the raccoons.
Not using it and lifting it full of stuff, so you shouldn't be worried about the handles breaking while you are carrying stuff in it. All in all this is a tough cooler that will keep your stuff cold over a long weekend for a price that cant be beat.
As long as you follow the directions and make sure you chill everything before you put in the cooler or it does not keep ice for five days, it should do what it says it does... all in all is an awesome product.
