Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler — 

Multiple coolers can be found in my household, including coolers large and small, with and without wheels, etc. We like to have an assortment of coolers availble for different situations and one cooler that we reach for when we need extra space is the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler, a large size cooler on wheels.

Cooler Commentary:

Looking at the basic facts of this cooler reveals a box- shaped, plastic cooler measuring approximately 21 inches in width, 20 inches in depth, and 18.5 inches in height. The inside of this cooler is shaped like cubical box and it can hold about 90 cans. A small opening in the bottom- rear of the cooler helps to drain excess water.

The exterior of the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler is manufactured with plastic and it features a white lid that is attached via a hinge. The lid has four built- in cup holders and it utilizes a pressure- seal that keeps it shut and keeps items cold. It takes a good push to close the lid and snap it in place.

To help transport this cooler from place to place, there is a black handle that extends upward and locks in place at two different levels. Once the handle is lifted, the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler can be tilted and pulled from place to place with the two back wheels providing the necessary support. There are also molded handles for lifting and carrying the cooler the traditional way.

Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler is a very nice, lightweight, space- efficient cooler from one of the largest names in coolers and what I like best about the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler is its shape. Most large coolers feature a rectangular shape and while they certainly hold a large amount of volume, they are also awkward to transport from place to place. With the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler, it is easy to transport because the cubical design makes it easy to tilt the cooler at just the right angle for strain- free pulling, even when the cooler is full. It is also easiler to place this cooler into most vehicles. The cubicle shape makes it easy to slip the cooler into limited spaces where a rectangular cooler would be unable to fit. 

The Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler has a pull- out handle that makes it easy to maneuver. I like that it locks in place at two different levels because this makes it easy to adjust the handle for taller or shorter individuals. One word of caution, however: Do not lift this cooler, when full, by this handle. The handle can easily pull a large load, but it wasn't intended to be used as a handle for lifting because it cannot support the potential full weight of the cooler when filled with cans and ice. For lifting, one needs to use the molded handles. Use the pull- out handle for this purpose, and there is a chance it will break.

Draining this cooler does take some effort, due to the placement of the drain. It is necessary to tilt the cooler a little more than other coolers in order to drain out all of the water. I usually ignore the drain and plug and just lift the cooler and pour the water out to make sure I get it all. But this can be awkward because the attached lid gets in the way. It takes some effort if your goal is to pour the water into a sink or toilet because your target is small but with practice, you can make it work.

Bottom Line Viewpoint:

I like having several coolers available for use and I am happy that I decided to make the Igloo Ice Cube 60 Quart Roller Cooler a new addition to my collection. I like it better than the oblong coolers and the efficient shape makes it easier to store and pull. Add to that a reasonable price and you have a very solid cooler for the money.
