Lots of reviews about ice melting within the first day.
People don't know how to pack a cooler. If you're just chilling drinks for a party, chuck it all in and don't worry about the ice melting. It's short term use. If your cooler and drinks are warm, the ice is going to to melt very fast in any cooler. Especially true of the more insulated coolers, that will stay warm in the shed or an unconditioned garage.

If I am using cooler for long-term cooling, I bring it inside the house (if it's warm out) and open it up for a day or two to get the latent heat out. Then I charge it with ice for a day to get it cold.

Everything going inside gets pre-chilled, if I can make it happen. Food I plan to eat in 3-4 days is pre-frozen and in vacuum bags so it won't be affected by cold water.

Dry ice is amazing if you can find a place that sells it. Put a block in the corner, wrapped in a paper bag, and it will keep the regular ice frozen for quite a long time. Ice blocks are also better than cubes. You can go ghetto and freeze water in some old milk jugs if you can't find a place selling block ice. Load your stuff and top the cooler with ice. Any place for warm air is going to encourage melting. If I have some strong paper bags, I'll put them over the ice and use a bit of space up top for delicate things like snacks and sandwiches that will get eaten right away. The paper bag will insulate the ice when the cooler gets opened.

Also, don't drain the cold water unless you need to tidy up. 34 degree water is awesome for keeping things cold. If you drain the water, it will be replaced with air which heats up much faster.

Has anyone considered making a wheeled base to move around - am looking for ideas. Thanks.
Just buy one of those collapsible carts or use the kid's wagon.

Here is a smaller yeti that costs $325... Sort reviews by lowest. Same issues... You're welcome.

Problem is folks think they can stuff 4 days worth of food and drinks in these and then top with a 7lb bag of ice LMAO.

This cooler literally costs 15% of that yeti and is slightly larger, and will have performance within 10% of each other for 90%+ of use cases.

Almost exactly what I do first with my older lifetime cooler before it got stolen, and I'd have ice in the desert for 3 plus days. Recently got a Yeti as a replacement as a gift and it is better, get over 4 days the first time I used it.
It's 3 times the price of my old one so not sold on the value proposition.

Great deal. Hoping the 25qt goes on sale, too. The 50qt is just too large for my needs.

Is this better vs the Costco igloo 60qt for $50
Wanna know this too. Just bought the Costco one last week for a 700 mile drive to Great Smoky Mountains. Loaded it with lots of frozen and refrigerated food to last 10 meals for a family of 5. Hadn't put any ice at all. Only prep was bringing it inside the house and keeping it open for over a day, and taking things out and loading it couple of minutes before starting the drive. Stuff mostly stayed frozen, no complaints or health issues this past week of eating that food. The only thing is I had put some ice pops on the very top before closing the lid, and they had become a bit slushy in 12 hours.

Costco one is more narrow and had wheels. I think that's a win for me.

I have the older 25qt version of this cooler. It's honestly as nice as a cooler needs to be. It lacks the heft and price of nicer rotomolded coolers, but could easily last a lifetime of many uses per year.
The most common failure point on cheap coolers is the lid flipping up in the bed of a truck and taking flight. With these latches that is never going to happen. It also has like 3x the insulation of your cheaper $30 coolers.

this guy cools. majority of people dont know how to do it like this.

I do all of this already but as for draining the water, what are your thoughts of draining the water if you will be introducing fresh ice in the cooler.

Youll have to find reputable reviewers who do cooler reviews to really make a proper call
