I have had pretty good luck with the AO soft sided in the boats. They make a flat version that lines the locker coolers perfect for quick load/unload. For the pool and pontoon about 5 years ago I converted to Yeti 65s. There were not the options of knock offs available. They are bulletproof and do not need to worry about them breaking. I had a pile of igloo coolers like 10 of them with hinge and handle issues / multiple rebuilds I gave away. The Hopper soft coolers are strong as well - I put in the RZR.

I'm still getting rid of those damn things Sam.. LOL

With options like this Coleman and other economical coolers it just doesn’t make sense to spend a ton of money on a cooler that uses ice.

If you want better you can go with a good 12v cooler or cooler/fridge that can keep your beers cold and keep ice frozen for cocktails...

Here’s a link to a Home Depot product you should consider...

From a customer service standpoint AO'S are aweome! Pack them right with frozen water bottles and work great.

While AO is great with their customer service, I’d rather buy a product that doesn’t rely on customer service. I have 4 AO coolers in the garage that all leak. Done.
