Tougher than an angry bear and proven to keep ice frozen for days, Cabela's® Polar Cap® Equalizer 60-Quart Cooler gives outdoorsmen serious performance over the long haul. Featuring a maximum insulation-to-weight ratio, this 60-quart cooler's efficient, all-around foam insulation delivers great temperature control and ice retention without excessive weight. A freezer-grade gasket in the lid creates an airtight seal to help lock in cold temperatures even longer (holds ice up to 7 days). Incorporating molded padlock tabs into its rugged resin shell, this bear-resistant design allows you to securely lock contents inside the cooler. Barrel-shaped, rubberized T-handle latches ensure a tight, secure seal, and feature integrated bottle openers for convenience. Elevated, non-skid feet reduce heat transfer between the cooler and whatever surface you place it on, increasing insulating efficiency. Molded-in handles and a molded-in hinge with aluminum connecting rods enhance durability for years of reliable performance. Rope handles with integrated handle retainers and glow-in-the-dark tracers make lifting and carrying easier. Integrated pressure-release valve for easier lid opening. Leakproof spigot with stainless steel lanyard, and dolly-pin latch retainer for use with optional dolly. Dimensions: 37"Lx19.5"Wx18.75"H. Wt: 30.1 lbs. Made in USA.

Great True 60 quart cooler.I pre-cooled the cooler with 2-16.9 oz ice bottles and one quart ice jug for 10hrs after removing from 110* garage. Not even cooling it down near like recommended. I put 34 bud light, 20-16.9 oz bottles of water and 12-12oz G2 gatorade in it. The gatorade were room temp when installed and I was able to squeeze almost 20 lbs of very large tubular chunks of ice in it. I’d say probably 18 lbs or a little more. With it in the bed of my Chevy I drove to the farm south of Lubbock Tx from Amarillo on the flat terrain we started real life testing it. This was Friday noon in 96* temp. We opened it about 20 times in 90* weather with a 12-15 mph wind across the cooler that day. Saturday temp was in mid 90’s and 10-15 mph wind. We opened it over 50 times and some of the time to get ice out for drinks. We pulled about 2-3lbs of ice out of it. Every time it was opened it was like a hot hair dryer across the ice and drinks. Some openings for people just to admire it. On Sunday it was still in the bed of my pickup and was only opened about 6-8 times but temps were back to low 90’s and breeze to 15-20 mph. I drove home after lunch and drained water off. I put it in my garage with only a couple water and gatorade left. On Monday morning there was still ice and the garage was still about 80* inside. I checked it monday evening and there was very little ice left but my temp gun showed the water bottles at 46*. That was the end of test. So you can draw your own conclusions but in my igloo or Coleman 40 qrt neither woulda had ice even half way through Saturday. The cooler has zero imperfections inside or out. Everything is smooth with no sharp spots. I love the big molded handles and only used the ropes once to try them. They’re solid. The big rubber hold downs don’t stink like china rubber and are very strong. You can kinda twist and rock them and they release very easy. We didn’t latch them every time between getting beverages out. I laugh every time I see tests done on coolers by opening them 3 times a day. Who does that. With beer, water and Gatorade in a large crowd this cooler stayed open more than closed and remember that not all 20 lbs fit and about 2-3 lbs got removed for mixed drinks. The rule is 2-1. 2 times the ice to beverages. Sorry but I’d have to buy a 150 qrt for doing this. This is real world testing. It lasted 3-1/2 days of that in hot breezy weather. Granted if everything woulda been used out it woulda been 3 days probably This is a very good cooler and I’ll buy another size if needed. I’ll run a side by side test against any other cooler in the same conditions and guarantee theirs won’t do any better. Ive been around Competitors enough to know it needs ice after a day on a polaris 6 seater and 6 guys in and out of it in 95* weather in Texas south plains. This is an Awesome Cooler.

Good coolerIt’s a good cooler better than what I had but didn’t hold ice anywhere close to the number of days that I saw a demonstration for it.

Better then a yetiI’ve had a lot of coolers in the past but nothin compares to this. It keeps the ice and drinks cold and it’s cheaper then any yeti. I recommend this product to everyone. Even though this one I have is an 80 qt, my 40 qt I bought 3 years ago still last

Better than a YetiWent away this past weekend and my buddy had a yeti.
The Cabelas out performed from a ice retention.
Glad I did my homework first and bought the Cabelas

40 Quart Good cooler but too bigHave used my 40 Qt Cabelas cooler on a couple of trips now. Ice retention is very good and the first time, when I put in two 15 # blocks, I threw ice away after 6 days. Having the drain is good too because this puppy is heavy when loaded. The bad news is that the handles that stick out make it too big to go sideways in the rear of my Subaru Forester without putting the seat down. Too long by an inch or two. Also too tall to fit under the security cover. Could use an aftermarket shelf but oh well. The bottom line is that it works great but I'm wondering if I should have paid the extra for a competitor's cooler that would fit better in my car.

Not up to parThis cooler works OK but when I first got it it leaked where the drain plug tether attatches to the cooler, I was able to fix it but shouldn't have to. Also the finished product looks rough, for example the foam insulation shows around one of the hinges etc. The Yeti may be worth the extra money. I don't believe this cooler is a good value

The Best Coolers!After some research I learned that the cabelas coolers actually outperform the Yeti coolers in ice retention by quite some margin. I decided to buy the 100qt cooler. Used it for an 8 day remote camping trip. Did not get a chance to pre chill the cooler but all the items that went into the cooler were chilled. Only had enough room to add 3 bags of ice. I was worried that it wouldn't be enough ice. Much to my surprise half of the ice was still there when we got back. Temp was around 27-30°c all week. This cooler is built extremely tough and durable. It should last a very long time. It has exceeded my expectations.
Is the bottom of the interior slanted for draining?

What's the warranty on this product ? I've seen video where the rubber latches were deteriorating and the lid had warped in the sun after about one year . No way I'm gonna spend that money if it's not guaranteed
Asked by: Taylordawg03
Thank you for your question. The current guarantee covers Cabela's brand products against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product. It does not cover normal wear and tear. It also does not cover if the product is mistreated or used for something other than its intended use.
