Title: Rubbermaid 5 Day Cooler?
Post by: scpreacherswife on Mar 31, 2004, 09:42 AM
Has anyone tried the newer Rubbermaid Endurance 5 Day cooler?  Walmart has the 60 qt. on wheels for $22.46.  Great price, but I wonder if it is as good as the Igloo and Coleman 5 day coolers.  This one has the collapsable handle and wheels on the back, rather than on the end, and double side by side lids.  Any opinions?

I remember reading that people who had the rubbermaid were as happy as the coleman extreme cooler owners. This was discussed here some time ago ...

Sam's Club has the 70 quart Coleman Extreme coolers for $22.88.  They don't have wheels. :)

We have one, can't really say it holds ice for 5 days here in AZ, I like the split lid and expandable handle. The only drawback are where the wheels are located. When rolling you really can't get it through the doorway, you have to turn it. We have had our for over a year and it seems to be ok.

Yes, I have one of these puppys.  The wheels in the back is a great feature, making it easy to pull out of the back of the Sequoia. and pull straight out from where every its parked.  It gets its size from being deep more than anything else.  Will it really last 5 days. Well yes if you load it 99% full of ice and never open it like they recomemd.  But yes it does work way better than thin sided units.  I would recomemd it.
