I’m a very suspicious person, when it comes to claims made by product manufacturers. My expectations are low on most products nowadays and I let very few ads sway my purchase. That being said, I must admit that I can believe the claim of one manufacturer….the Coleman folks with their Extreme Cold Coolers.
Against my better judgment and desires, I hosted a New Years Eve part for my Father-in-law and some of his semi-close friends at Casa de Tank. In the interest of refrigerator space and prevention of Grubby fingerprints on Tankette’s new stainless refrigerator, I went to Wal-Mart and bought a 120 can cooler and 80lbs of ice for the plethora of soft drinks and adult beverages we planned for the “Guests” to consume. The tag on the $46 buck cooler claimed “keeps ice for 5 days at 90 degrees”….yeah right…Right?
I have wanted a big cooler for a while and figured, if it works for a night and provides decent service afterward, it’s well worth the purchase. Well, my friends, I’ll tell you that it was 16 days ago and I still have about 65 lbs of the 80lbs of ice….and some of that was scooped out for drinks. I may have drained about a quart of water out of the cooler yesterday.
I am impressed Coleman. I believe that it will do as it says at 90 degrees. Heck…I may have this ice long enough to prove it come Spring. I bequeath the Tanker Seal of Approval on this cooler!
