Great cooler from Dometic!
I spent several months trying to decide which hard-sided cooler to buy. To be honest, all the top brands seemed to be very good. What set the Dometic cooler on a higher pedestal was 1) the multi-opening lid and 2) the ability to quickly convert the cooler into a water dispenser either by using the included spigot or buying the rechargeable water faucet. This cooler is able to carry a standard-sized plastic water bottle with approximately 3-4 inches of room to spare on top. The handles are magnetic to keep them together and out of the way. It is a little top heavy and can be tipped if turning a sharp corner too fast when siting by itself in a flat cargo area. However, if it is sitting in the foot-well of the vehicle, I had no tipping issues. I froze 12 water bottles, put in a little bit of ice along with a container of sliced ham, and the cooler kept the contents cold for 4 days in 90 degree weather. While I own a 12 volt freezer/cooler from Dometic, this is a very nice addition for those times when you don't have a power source.
