Should have purchased prior……have a Yeti 65 needed something just a tad smaller and the Pelican wheeled 45 is incredible built like a fortified job box on steroids the ice retention hands down blows away the 65 wondering if Pelican does trade in’s ???

You can't go wrong with a Pelican! Thank you for your kind review, Freddie!

This is a great cooler! rugged and sturdy. Latches are easy to open but secure and the ice stays frozen for days! Love the wheel and handle.

Thank you for your kind review, Lisa!

I've been using Pelican storage systems for nearly 20 years. From military gear storage, toolboxes, ice chests, cigar, waterproofing. Everything is built so damn tough, they will outlast me.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Javier!

We took our 45qt Pelican on a 3 week road trip. Not only did it keep all the ice after 2 days in over 80° Sunlight, NONE of the food spoiled! It was like our traveling refrigerator.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Judy!
