CaterGator CG45WH White 45 Qt. Rotomolded Extreme Outdoor Cooler / Ice Chest

I found this cooler being the bargain hunter that i am, i was skeptical about buying a non "name brand" cooler and this one is like 1/2 the price of name brand units im so glad i found this cooler. I left it with ice i put in as soon as it arrived in my car while at work and im TX! still had plenty of ice ,best cooler ive ever bought and ill buy another as back up very soon!

We have purchased the large one with wheels and this smaller one in same camo pattern. We use them for events mostly for drinks. We have noticed over time the plug will start to leak if not tightened super tight. Which is a negative because once you tighten it, its hard to un screw it later when cleaning and to air it out for storage. is the only thing we have noticed thats an issue, not a super big deal but it's happened to both coolers. Our large one we purchased it over 4 years ago and it still looks good and functions good for the price. It's not as good as the yeti ice melts faster (we have a yeti too) but for traveling and banging it around as much as we do it's well worth the price and we will probably purchase more in the future. I think the yeti and others are overpriced for what you get. This cooler will get the job done.

I purchased the 45qt cooler. I’ve now used this cooler 4-5 times for multiple days. There is absolutely no way this cooler is holding ice for 10 days. The max is 5 days. I. Hot conditions count on 24 hours. I used this at flaming gorge camping for drinks and it held ice for 5 days. The last time I used it in Escalante in the summer. It was closed all day since I was out Canyoneering and it held ice for 24 hours. A bit disappointing.

I purchased this cooler a few weeks ago, I live in the Florida Keys where its HOT!. I filled the cooler with 32lbs of ice and drinks. I used it (meaning opening and closing it) it stayed in the sun and shade outside only. After 5 days the ice had melted and I was left with ice cold water. I'm not sure how the claim of 10days of ice would be appropriate, maybe if it was inside and not exposed to the elements? But, overall I'm very satisfied with this product, I would purchase an other one when needed.

Solid design with a lot of nice touches. Every component seems solid and it holds ice great. Very satisfied with it for my prop project and as an ice chest!

Recently went to an outdoor concert. The cooler was in the car all day with temperatures around 100 degrees. We still had ice and our drinks were cold. At half the cost of the competition, this cooler kills it!

Everything went well on delivery and very pleased with my cooler.

I bought this cooler to replace an older Igloo brand, thinking this one would keep things cold longer, and the lower price was initially appealing. I was wrong. You definitely get what you pay for; this works no better than an Igloo. Not worth the money and the return policy is worthless.

Very nice cooler comparable to many higher end models.

I saw the price on these online so I said well I'll try one but it was very skeptical. I will be buying more of these they hold ice better than a yeti, cost less and the quality is impeccable. The best thing is that weighs less.

Shipped very quickly, first impression is that it is really good quality especially considering the price point. I would definitely compare it to other big name coolers. Excited to test it out hunting.

This is a great cooler, don’t take the 10day mark as a buying point. If it’s snowing outside and you live in Minnesota it’ll prob stay cold for 3 months. But when it’s hot and in the sun it will not. I’ve put room temp drinks form the store in the cooler and a bag of ice and the ice melts in 24hr and the drinks stay cold for 3 days I’ve also prechilled my cooler and drinks then put them with ice and and the ice has lasted 8 days. It’ll all depend on the conditions of use.

An amazing rotomolded cooler. It is extremely durable in construction and an excellent value. The metal bottle openers are very solid and won't bend or rust overtime.

I like my 45 qt cater gator. The quality of it is nice. I have 1 dislike and that is, it holds ice maybe 1 and half day inside my air conditioned house...

CaterGator tan cooler looks attractive and is a heavy well made cooler. This cooler works great to take for family outing on our Pontoon or to take to buy food supplies during the heat since it keeps food cold. This is a wonderful cooler with lots of added features, a ruler on top, a cup holder at each end of the cooler, two sturdy handles, the cooler can be locked, the drain hole has a plug with a chain to prevent the plug from being lost, and this is a very well made cooler.

We purchased this cooler for a beach party we had catered. Not only did it look great but it kept our customers drinks ice cold with the lid open for the entire afternoon and evening. This cooler is very durable and does not weigh too much like other coolers we have looked at.We are going to purchase another one as soon as its available. We loved the cooler so much we use it for our personal trips too ! Thanks !!!

Very well built cooler. I'd take this over my RTIC. It is lighter and has some nice features. (corded drain plug) The fish ruler and cup holders on the lid are also very useful.

This cooler is top notch! The build quality is exceptional, and it holds up to their claims of keeping ice for a long time. It has great added features for usability that other big name brands don’t offer. I would certainly buy this cooler again no questions asked!

This is my second CaterGator cooler purchase (see my May 2019 review of the CG20TAN). As before nice fit and finish, drain plug seals well and cannot be lost, and strong latching system holding the lid tightly closed. The feet are smooth plastic (by appearances stronger and more substantial than the rubber disks on the CG20) and sit almost flat with a very minor rocking motion. Also as before baskets, dividers and spare parts are not available unlike some manufacturers. An outstanding overall value. I have not tested the ice retention capacity yet but I'm confident it will easily meet my needs.
