Best Uses
- Day Trips
Comments about Marine Elite Coolers:
When I saw "Elite" in the description I thought it would hold ice better then the cheaper model. After purchasing the 54 I realized that the cooler was no better then the cheep Igloo. The difference is stainless hinges and latch and cushioned handles. The drain cap doesn't even screw on. I noticed that that the walls were not very thick but thought it may have had a high quality insulation. My wife and I take weekend trips on the boat and only store drinks in the cooler. I have an ice maker on the boat and it can't keep up with rate of melting ice. I actually had to buy a bag of ice this weekend with my ice maker running all weekend.

The pad option adds seating in camp or on a boat. The pad also keeps the sun off of the top which helps to keep the things colder longer.

Comments about Marine Elite Coolers:
We bought this to replace the standard cooler that came with our new sailboat. We thought this advertised that it would keep ice through the weekend -- guess not. One day tops.

Best Uses
Comments about Marine Elite Coolers:
Igloo really cheaped out by selling a so called premium cooler and not including a tray for items to stay off the ice and the cheap coolers have trays. Next time I will consider a Yeti even if it is very expensive it is a better made item. They do not even sell a tray for this size cooler, bad marketing Igloo.
Pros
- none
Cons
- Handle came off
- Poor Quality
Best Uses
- none
Comments about Marine Elite Coolers:
I bought a 94 qt Marine Elite Cooler, expecting it to be better quality than the cheap coolers, it was not.
The very first trip, I lifted this cooler half full of soda and ice, the handle (which has only two short screws), pulled completely off dumping the contents on the platform and water.
Also, ice didn't last more than two days.
