Let’s check some of the great quality coolers:

ORCA Heavy Duty Coolers

ORCA is 100% American brand that produce world class coolers and some other outdoor gears. They uses the top graded materials to produce each of their products. Coolers from ORCA have a very good reputation in market.

ORCA Heavy Duty Cooler

The first feature that must take your attention is the heavy duty design. ORCA coolers are built with extremely heavy duty roto molded materials. The Roto-molded construction make the body of the cooler indestructible. With a superior ice retention and long lasting built quality ORCA coolers are comes number #1 in my listing.

Pelican Coolers

This is the most expensive coolers you will find on market. But I think it can take the 2nd place as a best cooler and ice chest among all premium coolers. Pelican coolers are made in United States. And the company always focus on the quality over the price. Since investing on a cooler is not so cheap, I always recommend people to pick the right product even paying the most.

Pelican ProGear Cooler

Pelican is one of my favorite choice because of its ice retention capacity and indestructible construction. If you are looking for something for rough use, then this cooler is the best option for you.

The price of Pelican coolers are almost double to ORCA coolers. But if you consider the quality, the cost must be worth enough.

Grizzly Coolers

Grizzly made some great quality coolers at very reasonable price. When the premium brands costs around $300-$500, Grizzly at the same time costs around $250 by providing almost the same features as premium brands offer. So, it’s really a great alternative for budget customer.

Grizzly Coolers

Grizzly coolers are good for keeping ice longer. All of the coolers are certified bear resistant. So, you don’t need to worry about bears even if you plan your trip on a bear area.

I must say that Grizzly is one of the best cooler for people who are searching for cheaper but quality coolers.

RTIC Coolers

This is another best budget cooler. RTIC manufactured some eye-catching coolers and outdoor gears that are very popular to avid camper. The cooler from RTIC are best option for people who wants a cooler for specially their fishing, camping and cycling.

RTIC Cooler

The company boast to provide more than 5 days of ice retention. In my testing, they are really true in their position. You will get a great insulation on your RTIC cooler for sure.

YETI Coolers

I put the name of the world’s most popular cooler brand at the last. This is because YETI coolers are good in terms of quality but not for insulation. When ORCA coolers can hold ice for up to 7 days, YETI can’t hold ice for that much time.

YETI Cooler

But YETI coolers are really great if you consider the quality, reliability and durability. YETI provides 5 years warranty on their Tundra series coolers. This is really a great investment if you can pick the right size and color from YETI. The price is almost expensive. Premium lovers are good fit for YETI coolers.

After you choose the right brand, it’s time to pick the right size of cooler. There’s a lot of size options available to choose from. I just got a video showing the way to pick the right size cooler. So, check this video below before taking your decision:

Conclusion

Choosing the best cooler is a must for every people because you will never buy it frequently. In some cases this will be your lifetime investment if you can able to pick the right cooler. So, don’t get confused. Go and check every coolers. Find out their features and try to read some customer reviews. After that take your decision. Hope you will be able to pick the right cooler.
