Very durable. Keeps ice!
I've had this cooler for 2 years now. Still keeps ice for days. Recently became even more impressed. Went riding on the side by side and had it ratchet strapped in the back. Apparently a bump I hit sent the cooler flying. Found the cooler on the rocky trail and it was still together perfect and kept closed tight. Couple scratches but it's still great!

I used this cooler ONE TIME to go to the beach. I transported it in an air conditioned car and kept it out of the sun and in an air conditioned house. Somehow, some way, the main body of the cooler warped slightly and it no longer seals like it should. Im telling you, this cooler was not abused in any way. In fact, when you look at how it is warped, there is no way this could have been caused by anything but a manufacturer's defect. Now, its an overpriced storage bin. Whatever company rates this against bears is lying. My cooler couldn't handle a five hour trip in a Honda Pilot.

    Absolutely amazing quality. Keeps ice for whole week of hunting camp and then some. Wish the came in red. But still outstanding. Not to mention made in USA

    Over the moon happy
    This cooler is amazing. We had pop in it with 3 bags of ice. The ice stayed in it for the full 10 days we were camping. 10 days after we came home, and the ice was melted, it was still cold, I mean cold enough to drink on a 90 degree day. I'm glad we finally spent the money and got a GOOD cooler. Worth every penny spent.

    Awesome cooler, super sturdy!
    I bought this cooler a couple of years ago and I have always been impressed with how long it'll hold ice. I'm even more impressed with the sturdiness of this cooler, my garage collapsed and at least 400lbs of stuff landed on top of the cooler and it was completely unphased; it actually knocked a hole thru the wood.

    Excellent Cooler
    This cooler is great for keeping ice for long periods of time, even when it is 90 degrees outside. Great for camping. The only drawback is that it is heavy. Fully loaded, it takes two people to lift it, but it is worth it. We like it better than a Yeti, and it is significantly cheaper!

    Perfect size for a camping trip or a tailgate party. We loaded ours up with beer %26 ice for tailgate weekend in Vegas, and the cooler kept the ice easily in the hot temps.

    Average Cooler
    I bought the cooler about 4 years ago and one of the top latches snapped. I think it was due to the top of the cooler warping up at each of the corners. The cooler is heavy which is both good and bad. Hauling it on and off of a boat can be cumbersome and best done empty. That makes it a bit of a pain when arriving home with a cooler of fish or drinks as everything needs to be unloaded from the cooler first before pulling it off the boat. The advantage of the weight though means it's more stable when underway and does not move as much. Initially it kept ice for quite a while, but now that the lid is warped, the seal is not complete and the ice melts much quicker. I called customer support who were very helpful with suggestions and also have new latches on the way. If I was rating on customer support this review would be 5 stars. I'm not sure I could recommend this cooler for others as I'm not sure 'LifeTime' will be much longer than a normal coleman cooler that are less pricey and are lighter to move on and off the boat.

    Rugged. Keeps Ice Good. Doesn't slide around on the truck.
    I bought the 77 Quart Lifetime Cooler. I love it. The latches operate easily...don't have to muscle it open, yet it stays secure in the meantime. The "feet" on the bottom keep it from sliding around in transit. Keeps ice as well as any I've ever had, and I didn't have to pay gold for it. I've had it for over 3 years now and the only reason I've needed any customer service so far, is my

    Great cooler for the price and warranty
    I have used this cooler about 4 times. Each time ice was still in the cooler after a Florida summer day (92 degrees and 85 percent humidity). One latch broke which renders the cooler almost useless. Stated the warranty process to replace and Lifetime wanted a receipt which I couldn't produce because this was a quick Walmart purchase before a Birthday party, and it was promptly lost. However, to my surprise Lifetime accepted the pictures and sent me new replacement latches. So far Very good. I would recommend this cooler based on cost performance. Yes, I paid for the cooler. No, it wasn't a gift.

    Took over a month to reach customer service
    Cooler seems good enough quality for the price. It had a mangled drain plug that I hadn't noticed at purchase. 10 emails and 5 weeks later I got ahold of Wendy on the phone, she solved the issue in one minute. Ian w made snotty comments and ignored my problem. I have never worked so hard for something so tedious.

    Excellent customer service
    I had purchased a 77 qt. cooler and noticed the drain cap was damaged. I contacted their customer service dept. and they promptly sent me- not only a new drain cap, but an entire drain assembly- at no charge and no questions asked. I am very pleased with their high quality products and will continue to purchase Lifetime products in the future.

    One tuff cooler!!
    I had my 77 quart cooler strapped to the top of my dog box on a bear hunting trip and while passing a semi at 60 mph the turbulence sucked the cooler up and out the back of my truck. It landed on the road and went into a skid. The semi driver tried to miss it but hit it with the back duals of the tractor and the jack for the trailer which sent the cooler on a wild skid to the opposite side of the road where it came to rest in the gravel shoulder. The only damage is a dent in the corner on the bottom, a little road rash and a few tire marks. I will definitely be buying another Lifetime cooler in the near future!

    Great Customer Service!
    We broke the latch on our cooler while we were on vacation and were struggling to find a replacement. I ended up emailing lifetime. I didn't have the model number or anything. I just describe what was broken, and took pictures of the latch. The day after we got back from vacation the new latch came in the mail.

    Absolutely Garbage
    Don't waste your money by the Ozark Trail brand instead. I have the life time and it's acting like it's imploding, latches won't work anymore. Just junk.

    Works for a Jack stand!
    My son bought the 77 quart ice chest about a month ago. He absolutely loved the quality of it. It stayed in the bed of his truck, and kept ice for a week at a time. Last night, he flipped his Ford Ranger. The ice chest was thrown from the truck, and then the truck landed on top of it. The only damage to the cooler was from where the truck was pulled off of it by the wrecker, and is still in perfect working order. I would say that it was well worth the money!!

    This cooler is excellent. I am not sure about bear resistant, thank goodness, but it is not lab resistant when they chew everything, Called CS and was so pleased with the rep's help and friendliness.

    Warped lid
    I bought this cooler about 2 months ago and the lid is already begining to warp!! Bought because I work as a firefighter and a farmer, so I take days of food at a time when I leave for work, but this is pretty disappointing. Cooler was amazing when first bought, but ice life span has been almost cut in half since the lid began to warp.

    Great Cooler, Comparable to Name Brand
    Bought 2 to take camping in the Black Rock Desert 11 day trip, self contained. Admittedly harsh conditions. Dry ice lasted 6 days, kept things frozen solid. Wrapped in blanket, kept out of sun/heat. If it can make it there, it can make it anywhere!
