I bought this cooler a year ago and it has not held up to the specs.  The gasket in the body of the cooler does not seal well against the lid and my ice, even using already cold items wiould last only 2 days at max.   I checked the newer model this year and noted the change in the gasket was place in the lid and was thicker.  This cooler works well and if I had to rated on the new one I would give at least 4 stars.   What can be done with the older model?
