    Excellent cooler. I prefer the previous versions of the vent/drain plugs with the holes in them that allow you to drain it without fully removing the drain plugs.

    This is our second large cooler. We love the OG 46 qt, but it's meaty. This 52 qt Ultra-light is as advertised. I was stunned at the weight difference. So much easy to handle while empty. It still requires 2 when fully loaded, but it's more manageable. Glad I took advantage of the holiday discounts.

    Solid Cooler

    2 out of 5 stars
    Brian - 27 days ago

    First, the cooler has a great look. We love the blues, and it has a clean feel to it! It'll keep your ice solid for 24 hours, but in 48 hours, you'll have mostly melted ice. By day 3, it was all cool water. That's pretty solid performance for our needs, as our camping trips don't typically extend 4-5 days. Fair warning, though, even the ultra light 52 is too heavy for my wife to lift on her own. I'm glad we didn't go with the solid version! What's sad about this company is that the promotions aren't always consistent. When I ordered our 52 Qt Ultra Light, the promotion was that it would come with a dry goods basket and freezable divider. However, we only received the cooler. When I contacted the company, the new promotion on the website was a free tumbler instead. Regardless, they did not honor any promotional items for our order, only offering a 15% discount for purchasing. There was already a 10% discount on those items during this time on the site, which isn't much of difference from what we were offered, considering those items should have been part of the package to begin with. If there were more integrity, then I would certainly recommend RTIC and add more coolers to our collection when our family expands. It's unfortunate because we love outdoor gear!

    Happy with the cooler. With one exception. Although a great idea, the wire cap keepers come off of the caps every time I unscrew them. Otherwise a perfect cooler.

    Not the best not the worst. I have a 52 Lt Ultra light cooler. With 16 lb of ice having a pre-chilled cooler, my cooler keeps ice, cold for 24 hours indoors. by 48 hours ice is completely melted. Still cold. After 72 hours it's room temperature. I bought this because YETI is too expensive and a fad. However, I think, now after getting one of the coolers and comparing it's a superior product for maintaining temp. I initially bought this for work. I'm a construction inspector. I can't use this for work it won't maintain it's coolness outside for more than 24 hours. And after a year of being outside the top of it is dry rotted from the Sun.

    The ice chest works great at keeping ice frozen - which after all is the main goal. The center divider is a must addition. The only change I would make is cosmetic. The outside surface is smooth and scratchable. Putting a slight texture on it would be a good and practical improvement.

    Keeps ice ice for a very long time. Bigger and bulkier than I expected but was willing to sacrifice on that front for the performance.

    I just used the RTIC 52 quart cooler for my week long hunt at my camp in Maine. The outside temperature hung around 40 degrees during the day and down in the low 30’s at night. I put 2 blocks of ice in and 9 days later the blocks had only melted about 30 percent…. I’ve never seen anything like it.

    Awesome product. Works well above expectations. It would be cool if it had a magnetic strip and/or side(s) that you could attach accessories to. Possibly a cup/can holder or some small bins to hold personal items or snacks or maybe even a zipper bag.
