Lifetime 65 Quarts Ice Chest with wheels in Pumice Stone/Black

I’ve used a lot of coolers over the years for everything from weekend camping trips to multi-day outdoor adventures, and the 65 Qt Lifetime Ice Chest Cooler has easily earned its place at the top of my list. This cooler strikes a near-perfect balance between durability, performance, and price. Ice Retention Performance The Lifetime cooler keeps ice cold for days—literally. I’ve done side-by-side tests with more expensive brands like Yeti and RTIC, and this cooler held its own. On a recent 4-day camping trip in the Florida heat, it retained ice with minimal melt, keeping food fresh and drinks frosty the entire time. Durability Built tough, this cooler can take a beating. The heavy-duty construction feels solid, and the rubber latches, steel hinge rods, and thick walls make it ready for rugged use. I’ve stood on it, strapped it to kayaks, and bounced it in the back of a truck—it’s still rock solid. Design Features The 65 qt size is perfect—not too bulky, but spacious enough to pack everything a small family or group might need. The non-slip feet are great for keeping it stable in a moving boat or truck bed, and the built-in bottle opener is a nice touch. Plus, it’s certified bear-resistant, which adds peace of mind in backcountry settings. Portability Despite its ruggedness, it’s still manageable to carry thanks to the ergonomic handles. It’s heavy when full (as expected with any cooler this size), but the design makes it easier to move than some similarly sized options. Bottom Line If you’re looking for a high-performance cooler that rivals premium brands without the steep price tag, the Lifetime 65 Qt Cooler is a no-brainer. It’s built for real-world use, and it performs exceptionally well in a variety of conditions. Whether you’re camping, tailgating, hunting, or just hitting the beach for the weekend—this cooler delivers.

It is heavy empty and extremely difficult to lift to put it in my vehicle once full. However, the ice stays frozen for at least 24 hours in 70° to 80° weather. Of course, the hotter it is, the less time it stays cold.

Worked great and the ice did not melt!

Really like the cooler, I'm having a garage built and needed something to keep drinks cool in the 95+ degree weather for the construction crew.

The 65 qt. size is perfect for keeping my cosmetics cool at outdoor vendor events. I was able to easily move my wagon and the cooler simultaneously from the parking lot to my station. Ice packs keep my items quite cool without the need for ice, which would create a mess. The latches are easy to attach and unlatch to access items inside. I am pleased with my Lifetime cooler and look forward to using it for more events and camping in the future.

Seems heavy duty and good quality

Truly a great cooler, looks like the high end brands, at a great price, we enjoy it while RVing.

This is a great cooler. Great size for a weekend getaway. The color and texture of the cooler looks great. The handles make it easy to move around. Keeps drinks and food cold for hours.

Got it for my husband as a gift and he loves it! Great quality and love the color.

We had borrowed one of these coolers (without wheels) to take on a trip. We decided to purchase one because we loved it so much. It does as it says! Great ice retention compared to other coolers we have. The wheels are a must!!
