I am a firm believer that when it comes to coolers you simply cannot try and pinch pennies. A dollar here or there could mean the difference between coolers that keep your beer ice cold and food fresh for 24 hours or coolers that constantly send off a foul odor and you don’t know why. Don’t get me wrong here, I don’t mean to imply that you have to spend an arm and a leg on coolers in order to get yourself one of the finest models on the market. In fact, today we’re going to look at the best coolers on the market right now as proof that quality coolers can be affordable, so here are the 15 best coolers around.
Here Are The 15 Best Coolers On The Market Right Now
1. Igloo Outdoorsman Hardtop Gripper 22
Igloo perfectly marries all of the best features of a hardtop and soft-sided cooler with the Igloo Outdoorsman Hardtop Gripper 22. This 22-can capacity cooler has a compartment for dry storage and id doubles as an ideal cooler for every quick outing.
2. Igloo Ice Cube Roller Cooler
Sometimes what you need the most is affordability and portability. For that time you should be looking at the Igloo Ice Cube Roller Cooler that allows you to carry food, drinks, and ice around. This is ideal for transporting anything cold to a party. This also has handy cupholder/beer holders on the top of the cooler so you can sit it right next to your chair and get to drinking.
3. Tourit Soft Cooler
The Tourit Soft Cooler boasts extreme insulation across three distinct layers, each providing backup to the other layer. The end result is a cooler that keeps your ice frozen for a long time, up to three days! It is almost unheard of for a soft-sided cooler to keep ice frozen for such a long period of time but this is a truly exceptional cooler.
4. Igloo Marine Ultra Square Coolers

If you’ve ever shopped for coolers at any point in your life then you undoubtedly already know the name ‘Igloo’. Igloo is one of the oldest and most dependable names in coolers because they make quality, affordable coolers. The Igloo Marine Ultra Square coolers come in several sizes, and in my humble opinion these coolers are designed for drinking beers on the beach. The 36-can Marin Ultra from Igloos is one of the best coolers on the market and it’s one of the best buys around.
5. Yeti Tundra Cooler

Since the early days of targeting the high-end fishing community Yeti has since gone on to prove to the rest of the world that Yeti Coolers are second to none. If you are looking to spend money on a cooler that will keep you ice colder and longer than any other cooler on the market then you should look no further than Yeti Coolers, specifically the Yeti Tundra Cooler (20 Quart).
6. Coleman Steel Cooler — 85 Can Capacity

The main issue many people have with coolers these days is that the high-end manufacturers have completely taken over the industry, and quality/affordable coolers are harder to come by than they used to be. That’s why you should consider purchasing the Coleman Steel Cooler, a rust-resistant, steel-constructed cooler with an 85-can (think 85 beers) capacity. The Coleman Steel Cooler comes in a variety of colors and prices, so if black isn’t your thing be sure to follow the link below to see all of the options.
7. ORCA Extra Heavy Duty Cooler

Bros, don’t sleep on the ORCA Extra Heavy Duty Cooler. It features a lid gasket that provides a perfect seal, locking in the ice to keep your food and beverages chilly for hours on end. The flex grip handles make this extremely sturdy cooler easy to transport, and it is designed for maximum ice retention. This means the ORCA Extra Heavy Duty Cooler is the PERFECT cooler for camping trips, beach days, boat outings, and any other event you might want to use it for. This cooler comes in various sizes and prices.
8. Canyon Coolers Outfitter Series (22-125 Quart)

Canyon Coolers makes the bold claim that their Outfitter Series of coolers are ‘COLDER THAN YETI’, and that’s not a claim you can just make in the cooler market if you’re not prepared to back it up. Unlike Yeti Coolers, Canyon Coolers start at a much lower price point, which is ideal if you’re in the market for a high-end ice locker but aren’t willing to press the limits of your bank account. It comes with a lifetime warranty, and the 35-quart model will hold up to 36 cans of beer. The Canyon Coolers 35QT Outfitter Series Cooler will also keep ice frozen for an astounding 6 to 18 days!
9. IceMule Coolers Pro Coolers (Cooler Backpack)

I simply cannot say enough great things about the IceMule Cooler Pro, they are in my opinion the ONLY cooler backpacks on the market that worth your money. I’ve owned one of these myself for quite some time now, I’ve gone fishing with it for 12 hours in the hot Florida sun and both my beer and ice stayed as cold as the frozen tundra.
You might think that because it’s a large backpack full of ice and beer that it would be uncomfortably heavy, but you would be wrong to think that. After bringing the IceMule Cooler Pro around my friends more than a handful have already purchased this backpack cooler for themselves, and I am willing to guarantee that you will not regret this purchase if you’re in the market for a cooler like this.
10. YETI Hopper TWO Portable Cooler
The YETI Hopper Two Portable Cooler has been my favorite over the past few beach seasons. This is unique amongst Yeti Coolers offerings. It’s recommended for camping and hiking as it is very easy to transport with the long and comfortable strap. Just like every other cooler made by Yeti the Hopper Cooler will keep your food and beer ice cold for days, because it comes with the finest craftsmanship on the market.
11. K2 Coolers Summit 20 Cooler

K2

K2
K2 Coolers aren’t exactly a household name like some of the other coolers in this roundup of the best Coolers on the market, but that doesn’t mean you should look past K2 when making a purchase.
The K2 Coolers Summit 20 features extra thick insulation for maximum ice retention, something you want to look for when making a cooler purchase. It also offers a ‘one piece roto-molded polyethylene construction’ that makes it one of the most sturdy and durable coolers on the market. Furthermore, the Summit 20 Cooler from K2 Coolers comes with a 7-year warranty so you know that you’ll be protected after purchase.
12. AO Coolers Vinyl Fishing Soft Cooler (Size Varies From 12 to 48-Pack)

AO

AO
This soft cooler comes in multiple sizes (12-pack, 24-pack, 36-pack, and 48-pack), so you should purchase accordingly based upon how many beers or sodas you plan on drinking while fishing. The AO Coolers Vinyl Fishing Soft Cooler is one of the most portable coolers on the market, and it’s GUARANTEED to hold ice for 24-hours in 120-degrees fahrenheit. So you’ll never have to worry about your ice melting on an overnight camping trip. It also features a removable shoulder strap and side pocket to store your dry items, as well as a leak-proof liner.
13. Coleman 42-Can Wheeled Soft Cooler With Hard Liner

Perhaps you are looking for a tailgating cooler, one with wheels. If that’s the case then the Coleman 42-can wheeled soft cooler is the exact cooler that you’ve been looking for. This wheeled cooler will hold 42-cans of beer, plenty for you to toss back before the big game. It also features a removable hard plastic liner for improved carrying flexibility, as well as front, top, and side pockets for additional dry storage.
14. Igloo Polar Cooler (120-Quart)

Igloo
No good list of the best coolers on the market would be complete without the 120-quart Igloo Polar Cooler, the best bang for your buck on the market. These large coolers are PERFECT for storing ice and food around Thanksgiving and Christmas time (at least that’s what we use them for in my family). They’re VERY affordable at just $55, and they will keep ice frozen for up to FIVE DAYS at 90-degrees fahrenheit, so they are pretty much as high performance as you’d ever be looking for. This is a cooler to keep in your house or garage, this isn’t your typical travel cooler. Though it could be ideal as a camping cooler if you’re staying in a campground because you can pack a weekend’s worth of supplies into this one Igloo Polar Cooler (it also doubles as a seat!).
15. Pelican Products ProGear Elite Cooler (65QT)

Pelican
The ProGear Elite Cooler form Pelican Products comes in a variety of sizes but for general use I’d suggest looking into either the 65QT or the 45QT models. Pelican claims that this cooler will keep your ice frozen for up to TEN DAYS thanks to its unique freezer grade gasket and 2″ polyurethane insulation. This durable cooler is as high-quality of a product as you’ll find anywhere on the market, and Pelican really deserves more coverage than it gets from the retail world.
