Igloo Trailmate Review An All Terrain Cooler

This allows a bit more cold air to escape than we would have hoped. That being said, the inclusion of thick walls, Cool Riser Technology, and Ultratherm insulation do help make up for some of this. Ice life will vary depending on how much (and what type) of ice you use, but you can typically expect from 40 to 85 hours of ice life. The next most notable feature is the glide handle that also doubles as a butler tray.

Good looks, many talents (aka handy and effortless-to-haul features) and an easygoing nature. You’ll get long-lasting, extended ice retention with the Trailmate, thanks to the THERMECOOL™ (it’s eco-friendly!) insulated lid/body and Cool Riser Technology®. Why we didn’t quite reach the 4-day mark that Igloo suggested, it wasn’t far off. Most people aren’t going to use this much ice as it would take up way too much valuable storage volume. The wheels, which are essential to the operation of these coolers, are made of tough plastic so you don’t have to worry about them popping. For instance, the Igloo Trailmate Liddup also comes with built-in LED lights on the inside.

Igloo makes a lot of products, many of which we think are excellent values for what they bring to the table. Unfortunately, we don’t feel the same way about the Trailmate Marine. We found its performance and overall quality to be less than what we had hoped, though its price is not much less than many of the seriously impressive coolers we tested. On numerous occasions, we found our hand searching for a front handle that doesn’t exist, only to latch onto the bottom of the little white box nestled on the front. Unfortunately, that little white box slides up and off the cooler as soon as you apply pressure – not a great handle, so the retracted trolley arm will have to do. Our least favorite aspect in terms of usability is the drain found in this cooler.

One area that the Igloo Trailmate Cooler excels at is its features. There are a ton of great features that Igloo has included that makes these ice chests stand out from just about everything else on the market. Elevate your outdoor adventures with the Custom Printed Igloo Trailmate Tote 24 Cooler. Designed for the active outdoorsperson, this tote cooler is built to keep your food and drinks colder for longer in the great outdoors. Its welded body is constructed with durable, puncture-resistant TPU/PU coated material, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of outdoor excursions.

A water-resistant, lockable storage compartment features an anti-leak gasket to keep your sunglasses, phone, or any other accessories safe and dry. The threaded drain plug is garden-hose compatible and features a non-slip, easy-grip tethered cap to eliminate the possibility of a small leak. The removable butler tray placed on the telescoping handle provides the perfect space for serving food and drinks. When not in use, the butler tray can be stored away under the lid. Two built-in stainless steel bottle openers help you quickly and easily enjoy your bottled beverages.

Not only is the Journey functional, but it also looks incredibly stylish. If you’re in search of a sleek cooler with abundant features at an exceptional value, look no further. Up against some pretty intense competition, the Igloo Trailmate didn’t turn any heads in our torturous insulation testing. The USDA recommends maintaining raw food temperatures below 40º F to avoid the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

However, it still won’t be quite as tough as the simpler premium coolers on the market from Yeti, RTIC, Engel, etc. But where the igloo trailmate Trailmate shines is in its mobility and features. There isn’t anything that Yeti offers that can match Igloo in these areas.

However, 4 days should be easily attained with a decent amount of ice used. The Igloo Trailmate 70 is the best rolling cooler for the money we have tested to date. This is a pretty bold statement considering we have reviewed a ton of wheeled coolers in the past. However, this claim is easily defended considering the superior ice retention and the included features/accessories.
