Pelican 20 quart cooler

Exceeded my expectations. Very sturdy and of top quality. Will definitely purchase another one soon. Getting hold of customer service was delayed but they more than made up for it by keeping constant communication with me regarding my order. North River Outdoors gets a thumbs up from me.

High quality. Looks great.

This is a well-built cooler priced a little less than other high-end coolers in its class. More importantly, from my perspective, it is the only 20 Quart cooler I found with this type of construction that will comfortably accommodate wine and champagne bottles standing full upright. The outside footprint is larger than I expected. There was nothing in the photo for scale and, of course, I didn't bother to mock-up a footprint from measurements conveniently provided in the description. This is the first really upscale cooler I've owned and I underestimated the thickness of the walls. Kind of amazingly, the day after the cooler arrived my neighborhood experienced a 7 hour power outage. I tossed a few critical freezer items into the cooler with just two blue ice packs. Seven hours later there was no sign of thawing of either the ice packs or any other freezer item. I purchased this cooler specifically for camping in Death Valley. I'll report back after my next trip but, based on its construction and also my little power outage experiment, I have a lot of confidence that this cooler will keep my food and beverages cold for at least the three or four days I plan to be there.
