I figured this would be a good day cooler. I have a Klein cooler which keeps ice for 3-4 days and has much bigger capacity but it is HEAVY. This cooler is great with my toolboxes and keeps my drinks cool, and it can't drain out in my truck.
I bought one when they first dropped. I too was severely disappointed with it. Pros: 1: It works with their stackable tool storage. 2: It is robust and tough Cons: 1: For $40 - $60, you can buy a Coleman cooler that will keep ice for 3 or 4 days compared to this. 2: They made this in a dumb size internally. Had they made it just an inch or two taller internally, you could stand two 12oz. cans on top of each other. 3: It's heavy for what it is! For a cooler with no insulation, and the small capacity, why does it weigh so much? This thing should be about $50 for what it is. It works ok for a small capacity "day" cooler, and it works with their tool storage system. It's just overpriced.
Great review. I wonder if when someone drills out a drain plug if there is no insulation in it. If not maybe drill some holes in outer shell and fill with window and door foam.
You know I was thinking that actually would be a nice size Lunch box! Something else, I wonder if it would keep things hot like on the way to like prayer breakfast? Appreciate the video!
I freeze 2 liters for my big cooler. But my small lunch cooler only fits frozen water bottles. I wonder if a 2 liter on its side if I still have room for lunch. Side note. I like the grooves. I bet someone 3d printed a divider which might be handy as well.
They picked grey instead of black because black holds heat. It would make the ice melt even quicker if it was black.
Thanks for the review! Well done
Thanks so much for the kind words and the comments!!

I guess a plus to not having a drain it, it can’t leak! Never looked at it that way. Thanks for the comment 👍🏽
Great honest review .
I'm over in East Tennessee.
This is the only Ridgid box I've not bought yet.
You can alway buy a drain plug and add it in.
If I decide to buy one I will add a drain.
I was thinking about the same thing! Thanks for the comment
Right on! Great review, agree about everything being better in orange...lol, and I really like my Ridgid cooler as well. Keep up the good work!!!

I agree with you on all points my friend. Great observations!!

I think it would be great for that.!!
With yeti rtic all rotomolded cooler big cooler not a lot of space 😂😂😂😂 this is good.
True that!. Thanks for the comment
Sorta disappointed in ridgid,have been a ridgid user for a long time,with a little more thinking or design ,could have been so nice
Agreed!!! It’s ok but could have been a lot better. Thanks for watching !!
Try ice packs instead ice cubes, you'll probably like 'em better.
I’ll give it a try. That would definitely solve “my no drain plug” issue. Thanks for the comment.

I think the nice thing is do you have somewhere where you can get free ice not that it keeps things cold
I freeze 2 liter bottles I refill with water. As it melts it keeps my lunch cold and I drink the water that melted when needed. No ice bill that way.
yeeehaawww
👍🏽💪🏽🕺🏻
Is it brushless?

Ok thanks. Now I know to definitely not buy it.
Glad I could help. Thanks for the comment
