And unlike many other coolers, the BMX has no rubber feet to stop it from sliding across the bed of your pickup if you neglected to tie it down. It lacks an air/watertight seal, which loses it some points on insulation, and the rubber latches can catch against your leg if you carry it the wrong way around, but it's miles ahead of your old ice bucket or gas station styrofoam.

Additionally, water easily spills out without a seal to hold it in — a negative for something that could tip over in the back seat around a tight bend. Despite the BMX hinges being proclaimed as delivering "extended performance," it is possible to pull the mounting screws right out of the lid by overextending the open lid. Super portable and compact, the heavy duty BMX 25 cool box from Igloo is ideal for days out, camping, fishing and sports. I haven’t compared these coolers against one another dropping them from any great heights, but it’s pretty clear that rotomolded coolers like YETI and RTIC are far more sturdy. In the chart below, you can see how the Igloo’s space efficiency compares to its competition—I get this number by dividing the number of cans a cooler holds by its liquid quart capacity.Now I don’t have an electric fridge on my 1971 boat, and I removed the old rudimentary cool box that was built in. This cooler is also equipped with Cool Riser Technology® which significantly improves cooling performance by elevating the cooler body away from any hot surfaces.

There are also a few interesting design features like the stainless steel kick plate—it’s mainly for design and it reminds me a little of the toys I used to play with when I was seven, but you can kick the front of your cooler all you want with no recourse. After hundreds of questions from my friends about the best gear, I figured thousands of guys must have the same problems finding the best cooler for their money. This tough little cooler surprised us with its long-lasting, thick-walled insulation, shockingly low weight, and cost that's a fraction of the competition. The extra sturdy hinges, reinforced bottom, and corner protection ensure that this Cool Box can handle a bump. While it’s more expensive than the Igloo BMX 25, I felt the additional cost was worthwhile, especially because the style is important to me.And through it all we haven’t lost sight of our original goal—to create products that enable the pursuit of happiness (however you define it).

However, I struggled a few times getting the cooler open one-handed as the latches are fairly stiff. The cool box cools so well that even ice will stay cold for up to 4 days in an ambient temperature of 30 degrees!

International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.The most obvious feature of the BMX 25 is the inches and centimeter approximate measurements right across the top of the lid to help measure the (surely impressive) size of the fish you may be catching while using this little chest. There’s no gasket in the lid which allows it to leak when tipped over and also reduces the insulation significantly on hot days.
