The 55 Quart Cobalt roto-molded cooler is rated for up to 5 days ice retention, while also being nearly 20% lighter in weight than traditional roto-molded coolers.  Maybe more importantly, this cooler is also 40-50% lower in cost than those over-hyped brands.  Don’t worry though, our Cobalt line of coolers still boast all the same great features of other premium roto-molded coolers. 

The 55 Quart Cobalt cooler is also the perfect choice if versatility of use is one of your primary goals. For this reason, the 50-60 quart cooler class is easily the most popular size across all brands of coolers. You really can’t go wrong with this choice no matter what you desired use might be.

Is Cobalt Right for Me?

Tough as a mule

Our new blue cooler is built very tough and will keep items chilled for days. It’s a little heavy but you can tell it is well made. It lives up to it’s billing.

Feeling a little let down

On March 31, 2023, we had a tornado a block over at 2:23 in the afternoon. Our yard and roof got trashed but we were okay. Power lines disappeared and we lost our electricity. I remembered buying this cooler and a larger competitor’s cooler back before Christmas for vacation this summer. I saw everyone last summer taking their coolers in and out of their motel/ hotel rooms and thought I have to have my own for the coming summer. I grabbed this cooler and took it to my family’s restaurant and filled it with ice. I took my cobalt cooler because it was lighter. I got home and used ziplock bags to make ice packs for my refrigerator and freezer. I still had 2/3rd’s ice left in the cooler so I put canned sodas in it. Within 36 hours, the ice was gone. The next night (Friday night) I took my larger cooler I purchased at Walmart to the restaurant and filled it with ice. I got home and did the same routine and had 2/3rd’s ice left. That ice in the larger and cheaper cooler lasted almost 8 full days before it all melted. With all that being said, I don’t think I will be taking this cooler with me on my vacation this summer. If your electricity is out and you need exercise, going out for ice everyday or every other day is a good exercise program. Wish I had a better experience to report. My wife is thinking about keeping it in the kitchen and using it to store rice instead of ice.

Solid and does the job

Was skeptical trying after using another over priced brand, but no issues at all and the product over delivered.

Ok, but disappointed...

I REALLY wanted to give an excellent review, but unfortunately I'm not completely happy. I'd like to share 4 things that caused me to give my purchase 3 stars, instead of a 5 or even 4 star review.

#1 - The handle to tow the cooler is not padded, nor is the cooler in front padded where the handle hits the cooler. When towing the cooler by the handle and then dropping the handle, (or when driving with the cooler in the back, the handle makes a VERY loud sound as it flops around and hits the cooler body, or when it's let go of after towing. This could have been easily remedied by putting some padding on the handle.

#2 - Their more expensive cooler talks about the smart way they put the drain plug at the end with the wheels, so it's easy to drain. I agree this was very smart, and figured they would do that on all their cooler models. When I asked customer service about this, they said they will be doing this on the model I purchased in the future. This didn't sit well, as I wish now I would have waited to order till they did this on my model. When the cooler is full, it's not easy to pick up the end with the wheels to drain the excess water out. MUCH easier to grab by the handle and let the cooler tilt on it's wheels to drain.

#3 - I packed the cooler with ice and my food to the top. I only opened it two times for a few minutes over 3 days time. My food after 3 days was barely cold, and I almost had to throw some food out. My model is rated for 5 days. Maybe I didn't put enough ice in for the amount of food, or maybe I'm doing something else wrong, but it didn't seem like it.

#4 - The latches that keep the lid shut barely have any resistance at all when closing the cooler. In other words, I'm left wondering if the seal is really tight. The latches are actually so loose, I wonder if I hit a large bump with my truck, that they could release and allow the lid to flop around and decrease how well the cooler lid is sealed against the body of the cooler.

Thanks for allowing me to give my feedback. I think it's still the best cooler I've probably ever purchased in the big picture, but for the price, I feel these issues above should/could be addressed, or better expectations given. -Joel

Great little cooler!!!

The Cobalt 25 has been a great little cooler! It is lightweight and holds ice for a long time.

FAQS
What is a roto-molded cooler and what is so great about them?

Roto-molded coolers are manufactured using a very specific rotational mold process wherein we utilize high end molded plastic (Polyethylene) that creates a continuous and thick cooler wall. This roto-molding process, combined with our extra thick and uninterrupted layers of insulation, ensures that Blue Coolers will keep your ice, drinks, food and whatever else, cold and fresh for the maximum amount of time. Moreover, you will not find a more durable, bear-proof cooler on the market.
