QA Edit: The price will vary by store stock, zip code or location. Price seems to only be valid if your store has it in stock. If you don't see the OP's $40 price, try another store in your area or another zip code.


The Everbilt 26 Qt. Cooler is designed for river trips, camping, and other outdoor activities. The High-Density Polyurethane Foam insulation keeps ice for 3 to 5-days, with a no-sweat design eliminating condensation on the outside of the cooler. It features Rubber Pad non-slip feet to keep the cooler secure in your vehicle or boat. An interlocking no-fall lid stays up when you're unloading the cooler and carry handles fold away for easy packing in truck or raft. For easy transportation, a stainless steel comfort grip handle is built-in. A drain release is located at the base of the cooler so you can keep melted water out of the cooler and your food.

Premium insulation keeps ice for up to 5 days
Lockable lid prevents animals from getting access to your food or adult beverages
UV resistant exterior designed for extensive outdoor use, wherever your adventures take you
T-handle latches keep the lid secure and provide a water tight seal

For anyone interested in information from the Manufacturer, they've responded to some people's Home Depot ratings with this information:"Please refer to the ice retention chart on the main product page of our item or listed under the info and guides section as a product brochure. As you can see, the type of ice you use and the temperature outside can change the ice retention time. For best results, we recommend using block ice and keeping the cooler out of direct sunlight."
You can also get dry ice from many Walmart locations. Call ahead to verify.

Your comment cannot be blank.

Doing the math on posted internal dimensions, this Everbilt appears to have about the same internal volume as the Yeti Tundra 35. That Yeti costs $250 and this Everbilt is $40; IMO there is no way the Yeti is 6 times better!

From what I have read, the trick with these coolers -- if you want the ice to last a long time -- is to pre-chill them the night before (using some milk jugs of frozen water) prior to loading them up for deployment.
about $200 cheaper but performs the same
Yeti is just Louis Vuitton for men. These are just as functional.

Love it! The latches were stiff at first. I learned how to close them with my palm instead of my fingers and they work just fine now. It was definitely easier the third and fourth time I closed the cooler.

If the rubber clasps don't work for you, just grab a couple 1/4" bolts and wingnuts to pass through the animal-resist bolt holes at the corners. You're at Home Depot, after all.

Yeah, what makes these great is an insulated lid with a foam seal and some type of clamping method. Plus the insulation is thicker than your standard $20 cooler. Why anyone would pay 100's over a standard cooler for those features is beyond me. Not saying that some of these coolers are not worth a hundred dollars or more but definitely not worth 4-500.

I had an RTIC softpack "30" but it fell out of my truck last night and someone took it by the time I realized and turned around. How does this everbilt 26qt compare in size?

Edit: here is a link to my other cooler for comparison in size: https://www.rticcoolers.com/shop/...ck-30-Grey

7 supposedly in the store on their web page. 7 showed at the service desk computer. 2 (now 1) on the floor.

I must say, those rubber tie downs are a bear to pull. You really have to stretch them to make them fit in the keyhole notches.
Seriously, if you have any arthritis in your hands, are thinking of getting one and it exists in the store, try to seal it up with the tie downs.
You might say, "Not for me". I'm close to saying that, but can do it. I can always give it away to someone as a present.

Looks well made. Obviously much cheaper than the expensive brands.

I have the Ozark softpack of the same size. This is much heavier, and a few inches larger all around. You are not shoulder strapping this one.
It's sad I will sometimes choose the cheaper cooler to bring because it's less likely someone will walk off with an igloo playmate vs a yeti.

Quote from drewdeluxe :
Family of 4 been looking for a big 50+ quart cooler like this, but getting 2-3 of these works the same for me.. Probably better, now I can divide the food in separate coolers.. Thank you for posting!! 😊

Here are a couple of things that you learn about these coolers. ( I am talking about all rotomold coolers....not just this one. )

One...they are outstanding at keeping things cool.

Two....They are HEAVY!!!.. It is important to consider how these coolers will be used. Yes, you can get a 50+ qt cooler. I would look at the weight when empty. Once you add ice and fill it up, you are not carrying it anywhere without at least a couple of people....at least not easily.

Three.... I have not seen it mentioned...but I think it is a big deal. That is the pressure release valve. The reason that these type coolers work so well is that the walls are heavily insulated. Add to that they are airtight. It is the airtight part that I am thinking about. If you have ever used one of these on a hot day, you will quickly understand why this is a very nice feature. When you have one of these cool down inside, it can create a vacuum that will make you consider a crowbar to get open. I have seen 2 people working together, trying to pry the cooler open.

On a side note....has anybody tried the light test on these?
What I am talking about is the completeness of the insulation. Some of the cheaper coolers have air gaps in the walls and missing insulation.
A good way to test is to put a bright light in a sealed cooler...while in a dark room.
If there are any gaps, you will see the areas light up in the walls.

I was going to purchase another one after getting home with one and the price is now $79 online. I wonder if it was a pricing error. Oh well, at least I got one.

Edit: I entered other zip codes until the $39 price displayed, then changed to my zip code and the $39 price stayed. Got another..... 😊

There was no signage that this was $40, makes me wonder if that's why there's plenty in stock around here. Glad I passed on all the other cooler deals, this is def the hottest price for a rotomolded cooler on SD (albeit a tiny one)
