I bought this cooler last week and cannot begin to say how great it is.  In my experience, the quality of most plastic-based products has significantly dropped over the years to the point where I started viewing many products as simply disposable.  This cooler has changed that perception entirely.  It is so well put together.  The engineers behind this deserve a medal... I just don't see how they keep the price so low!  Do not hesitate to buy this cooler if you are in the market!
