    This cooler is outstanding. Like a Yeti, but costs less. The cooler has far better handles than Yeti as well. I have multiple roto molded coolers by other companies, and this design is my favorite. The included bottle opener is a great addition too. Ice lasts days in the cooler, and the buckle type latches are easy to operate. If you’re looking for a premium cooler, this is a great option.

    Just the size I was looking. It came with a divider and bottle opener attachment that instantly adds value over other brands. Accessories overall might be a bit more economical than other brands, Gripe is that the wings for handles take up a lot of space. But it does make for an easy carry. i like it, I would buy it again. Especially on the Deal of the Day!

    I love this cooler. I thoiught the molded handles would bother me, but I actually prefer them to the Yeti-style handles because I can carry it on my forearms (like a forklift), and believe me, that is aneasier way to carry a heavier load. I have this in 2 sizes and would definitely recommend...

    I purchased this to use in my work truck it is a very heavy duty cooler very well built the only problem with it is the handles are built-in and stick out and make it very difficult to put in a truck front seat where this needed to go.. I needed to return it because of this but I did test it and it held ice for several days without melting

    Nice, solid cooler. I especially appreciate the bottle opener that attaches to the outside. Latches are solid and easy to open. I do wish, however, that the inside was larger. You lose about 30% of the interior space for insulation. If space is important, spring for the larger interior.

    Yeti can't touch this cooler. Ice lasts for two weeks. That's crazy. I might as well get rid of my fridge. Great for boating, fishing, and camping. Lots of compliments when used at outdoor parties. Awesome look and quality

    As described, this thing is extremely heavy duty, and holds temp well. The handles make it quite wide, but excellent for carrying. I use it on my boat, and the accessories are going to be ideal.

    Great but overpriced for a cooler

    Don't get me wrong. This thing is great. It will retain its coolness for a few days. Tested it out and I only tested it out for a total of 5 days (before I actually had to use it). It will stay cold. It is a bit bulky but know this, it will stay sealed and take a beating. My only real complaint about this product is the price point. Basically you are paying over $200 for a cooler. If you are looking for a product that need to hold drinks and stay cool for a few hours, buy an Igloo. $20 bucks and does the same job. This item is definitely for those that are going to go on long camping trips and need to keep things cool for up to 10 days. Even in this case, this wouldn't be enough storage space. Also, if you want portability, expect to pay another $200 just for the wheel kit for this thing. Great product but just not great for its Selling Price.

      Hey jazz,

      We're sorry to hear that you're feeling unsure about the price point of the Venture Cooler, as well as the Cutting Board accessory! While we certainly understand your hesitation about the cost, we truly think that the value is well worth the rugged utility, increased ice longevity, and limited lifetime warranty that all come with the products. If you run into any additional questions or comments, please feel welcome to contact our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269. They'll always do what they can to help out!

      Best,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

    Cooler does a decent job at keeping ice for a few days (better if it is kept packed full). It is a bulky cooler, but does the job. I like the locking latches.

    Kept a single bag of ice frozen for 5 days in a hot car. I’m pleased. Appears to be a great quality cooler. As good as Yeti for 1/3 the price when bestbuy put it on sale.

    Best Buy had a great Deal of the Day on this cooler. Best cooler I've ever seen. Quality construction, great design and keeps ice frozen for days. Attachments and accessories are a nice addition. Beautifully constructed. Only problem I've had was knocking the bottle opener off while squeezing it into the overloaded trunk of my car. No damage, just annoying. I cannot stress enough the design an construction quality. Expect it to last the rest of my life. Otterbox is amazing
