Medium Coolers (45-55Qt), Summer 2020 Ice Challenge, Does Kong Coolers Still Reign Supreme?

[@wildbillmiller614]

Dude I'm glad you're back, I was wondering if you were still going to make videos. As always you're the best cooler review channel out there

[@CoolersOnSale]

Ha ha, thank you! Feels good to be back at it!

[@donaldalderman2424]

When possible looking to see the new RTIC lightweight 52.

[@RustyShackleford-gl1vi]

I was up in the air on getting the Cordova 48 Orca 40, or Otterbox 45 but now after seeing this I just bought the Otterbox. It helped I had 40% off code too.

[@timcoots]

can you share the 40% off code? :)

[@RustyShackleford-gl1vi]

Tim Coots I don’t know if they’re still doing it but they are or were giving 40% off to what they called front liners. This was because of COVID. My wife works at the hospital so we qualified. I think they were giving it to everyone that might deal with it including people working at Kroger. The people often overlooked for such discounts.

[@gstrek1]

Was hoping for a Canyon in this test since they had made changes to their gasket and has had good results in various reviews. They did just increase their prices in their lineup between $40 to $60. Wondered if they improved their product even more. Glad to have you back. Great job.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Thanks for the heads up, we will check them out.

[@MM_405]

Alright.....glad to see you back and WoW new vid, new place, new beard, hello 2020!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@CoolersOnSale]

Whole lotta new going on around here.

[@mikeabbott2396]

I thought the Otterbox 45 had very slightly bested the Kong because they both lasted 10 days, and the Kong has a 5 qt advantage? Although they are obviously both top notch

[@EricOliver]

Awesome video reviews! Recently picked up a Kong 25 in pink and a Kong 50 in teal. They are absolute tanks and hold ice amazingly well.

[@toddo4329]

My boys at Kong still kicking some tail! Nice work.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Indeed!

[@ElBarbaNegra1]

So glad to see you’re back, wondering if I missed you featuring the Cabelas cooler? Also I’m looking forward to see if you’ll review the new yeti roadie 24 as well as the pelican elite 20 qt

[@gregboivie8761]

Can you test the Kong, Otterbox and Blue Cooler to see which is better?

[@donjuandemarco4115]

Please review the Rugged Road Outdoors Onitis 45 cooler. It looks like a game changer and can shake up the entire cooler market. There’s nothing on the market like it.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Will check it out. Thanks.

[@Freik18]

Surprised the Patriot 50qt wasnt included in this one. Thought i saw it on the end.

[@CoolersOnSale]

That was an Icey Tek.

[@Dcptcn643]

What happened to the Otterbox venture 45?

[@alllivesmatter5358]

Can you test the Coleman little oscar cooler?

[@mrbojangles8589]

I just watched the video with the rtic 65 it went. OtterBox 45 6.5 days Techni ice 6.5 days Kong white 5.25 days

[@mikeabbott2396]

@@alexvasquez8474 yep.. kind of strange the OtterBox was left out of this video.. From this video and the new video (Sept 7th, large coolers 55-110qt) I'm thinking he's sponsored by Kong now

[@CoolersOnSale]

We continue to use Kong because they continue to perform. No we are not sponsored by Kong, we just use them as a baseline as we did with Orca coolers until we found a better cooler.

[@MYTOYMAKERZ]

I love your reviews of coolers. Per your reviews of last years video my adult kids and my grandkids purchased me the Otter Box 45 and paid extra for the wheel kit. They go camping a lot so my wife and I try to go visit them at the camp ground. I had purchased all kinds of drinks like soda and beers so I left my cooler with the drinks with them. Well that night someone came through the camp ground and stole 9 coolers for I guess the drinks because they left every cooler behind but decided to take and keep mine. I was crushed that cooler was stolen but my kids didn’t have the monies to replace it nor did I. Sometime I hope to be able to replace my cooler. Had it not been for your testing myself or my kids wouldn’t have had any idea what to buy me. So now it appears the Kong is the better cooler. One thing I did was purchase my ice at an ice factory that provides ice to stores but they sell much better ice at they factory it’s very clear. The owner told me the more clear the ice the less air bubbles it has so it last quite a bit longer. Thanks and keep your reviews coming. So glad to see you testing again, Cheers

[@CoolersOnSale]

That's terrible to hear! Be sure to lock the next one up. Can never be too safe anymore.... even while camping, what a shame.

[@kbombs7972]

[@LeeVxt]

Kinda dissapointed for the Icey-Tek was hoping that'd do better! Can't find the Kong for sale in the Uk :(

[@WarEagleTheBest]

I checked Kong website, hey only have one white color, which is the newest - white or off-white?

[@kongcoolers1811]

Hi there! we currently sell the "off-white" described in the video. About a year ago we switched from solid colored coolers to granite, and that is what you'll find on our website and on Amazon.

[@fevergalindo9373]

No otterbox?

[@CoolersOnSale]

We included Kong because we had a newer model we wanted to test along side the older model. The Otterbox is still a beast of a cooler.

[@mikehalfmoonmullins404]

😷 HOT DANG. .... Charlie & Britt again wooohoooo

[@CoolersOnSale]

Waaaait for it... we might have more.

[@mikehalfmoonmullins404]

@@CoolersOnSale that can't be possible !!!!...... Or can it?????

[@wrbrd90125]

Nice! Have you compared the Kong to the Otterbox Venture?

[@CoolersOnSale]

We did that test last year.

[@mrbojangles8589]

Hey love these cooler videos. I'm surprised to see no OtterBox cooler. I thought that was the one that won the last challenge due to it being smaller then the rest. I own that OtterBox venture 45. Is it because they stopped producing it?

[@CoolersOnSale]

It's still available. We included Kong because we had a newer model we wanted to test along side the older model. The Otterbox is still a beast of a cooler.

[@RustyShackleford-gl1vi]

What’s your opinion on the Cordova? The 48 is at a pretty good price point on their website and they’re made in the USA.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Its a very nice cooler, I really like the handles. In terms of performance, well, its middle of the road.

[@RustyShackleford-gl1vi]

Coolers On Sale Thanks. Otterbox was good but those handles are killing me and that’s what has stopped me from buying one.

[@JustaRider808]

Have you guys tested the Sovaro Hardside Cooler?

[@CoolersOnSale]

No, haven't heard of them, will check them out.

[@JustaRider808]

@@CoolersOnSale Please let us know what you think. I never heard of this brand either. I just happened to stumble across them.

[@canyonwonder]

Hard to tell, is Kong currently selling the White or the Off-White?

[@CoolersOnSale]

It really depends where you're looking. Kong is having a hard time keeping inventory from what I hear. I guess others have realized the same that we have, they make a pretty darn good cooler for the money.

[@kongcoolers1811]

Last year we switched from solid colors to granite. Everything on our site and our Amazon is currently part of the "Granite Series," which includes the "off-white" cooler in this video.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Thanks for the input Kong! Awesome customer service, another reason they are a top pick.

[@aussiegruber86]

Do a death valley challenge, seen that the temp there finally reached similar temperature we get in Australia

[@UWBadger-tl8ny]

Have you done canyon coolers in any tests?

[@CoolersOnSale]

Yes, many moons ago we tested Canyon, they performed pretty well.

[@suade]

Like to see permafrost in one of these.

[@CoolersOnSale]

Will add it to the list.
