Trailmate® 50 Qt Cooler

Designed with a padded glove box, a serving tray, a food basket and 2 accessory holders for versatile storage, this cooler offers oversize, never-flat wheels and a padded, telescoping handle for easy portability. A built-in stand on the lid provides space to store your mobile device. Trailmate…the up-for-anything hardside and softside coolers — all high performing, easy to transport and crafted for the great outdoors. First, you have the butler tray that is built into the inside of the lid. Second, there is a removable dry storage box on the front of the cooler so you can and keep the phone/keys in there without fear of water or sand damaging then. The igloo soft cooler Series is a relatively new offering by the popular cooler company, Igloo.

We think you should add this product to your potential cooler list if you want something more mobile. We like both products and feel that it boils down to the individual. If you are simply after an ice chest with the longest ice life and most impressive build quality (and have a very large budget), igloo trailmate cooler then stick to Yeti. But if you need something more mobile and plan on doing a lot of entertaining, the Trailmate should be on your list. For a non roto molded cooled, the Igloo provided impressive ice retention ability. On the front of the cooler, Igloo advertises up to 4 days of ice retention.

Its spacious 70-quart capacity fits up to 112 cans (that’s a lot of Bud Light) and keeps beverages cold for more than three days. There’s an interior food basket that keeps food suspended above the drinks so that sandwiches don’t get wet and nasty. A common complaint that people have when it comes to these large coolers is their lack of mobility. Igloo has found a way to solve that issue in addition to offering up a lot of really cooler other features. The ice life and build quality are at acceptable levels and the styling is really sweet.

Here’s the scoop on what people are calling the Swiss Army knife of coolers.

Unfortunately, that little white box slides up and off the cooler as soon as you apply pressure – not a great handle, so the retracted trolley arm will have to do. Our least favorite aspect in terms of usability is the drain found in this cooler. Though it has a wide channel to help empty it of meltwater, the inside of the drain also is turned into a protruding tunnel into the interior by a white plastic tube.

The huge wheels have excellent grips and, combined with the glide handle, allow you to easily tow the ice chest over rough terrain. In addition to the mobility aspect, there are tons of other awesome features that very few other coolers can say that they have. This includes things such as a butler try, storage pocket, built-in bottle openers, food basket, optional LED light, and more. We built our up-for-anything cooler so it’ll roll right over rough terrain like it’s on a paved path.
