Coleman 6-Day 50 Qt. Ultimate Xtreme Wheeled Cooler Review

I am always looking for coolers with excellent build quality and that can maintain ice for longer periods of time. I recently got into "5 day" and "6 day" coolers.This is a review of the Coleman 6-Day 50 Quart Ultimate Xtreme Cooler.

When packing coolers, pre-chilled drinks and cubed ice are used.I use cubed ice because it is convenient, but understand that blocked ice maintain much longer than cubed ice.When tested, the Coleman Ultimate Xtreme Cooler kept ice for 60 hours (2 and a half days).Again, I am mindful that without blocks of ice, I cannot expect a full 6-days of ice retention.The Ultimate Xtreme significantly outperformed the older Coleman 48 Quart Cooler that maintained ice for only 24 hours.

The build of the cooler appears to be good.Looking at the cooler, the lid and walls of the cooler appear extremely well insulated.The lid appears to align decently with the body of the cooler, though the front and center of the lid does not appear airtight.Also, the drainage outlet has no significant "locking" feel as my old Coleman 48 Quart did.I noticed that condensation formed along the drainage outlet of the cooler.This is likely due to less insulation around the outlet.Not a big deal, but an inconvenient one as my wood floor got wet during the testing period.

Something to consider about this cooler is the canal on the inside of the cooler that leads to the drainage outlet.The canal is helpful in allowing any water in the cooler to drain almost completely without the need to tip the cooler.However, when packing the cooler, the cans will not line up easily or nicely due to the concave build on the bottom of the cooler due to the canal.Some people will see it as a plus and some will see it as a minus, I am neutral on this.I would recommend taking a look at the inside of the cooler to get a better picture.However, as a previous review mentioned, it would have been nice for the drainage outlet to be on the opposite side of the cooler due to the towing handle was in the direct path of the draining water.In addition, the long handle is just a tad longer than the bottom of the cooler when at rest, which digs into the ground when you park the cooler.So if you are outside, the tip of the long handle will likely dig into the ground, dirtying your handle.

The insulation appears to be an impressive 2-inches.As a result, you definitely notice this in the weight of the cooler.The cooler is hefty, especially when packed with cans and ice.Thankfully, the wheels on the cooler make transporting it easier and appear to work really well.

Overall, the Coleman 6-Day 50 Quart Ultimate Xtreme Cooler has decent build quality and good performance.This cooler is rated a 4.0 out of 5.0, which could be improved if the lid was better aligned with an airtight closure in the front-center of the lid, a more secured drainage valve, improved position of the drainage valve with respect to the long handle, and a little better performance.
