What does it mean for car camping?
By our cooler calculator (food, three drinks a day each, and ice at the right ratio), 55 quarts covers 2 people for 3 days, 4 people for 1 day, 4 people for 2 days.
Filling it at 2:1 takes about 44 lb of cubed ice. Estimated ice life at an 85F high in shade: about 3.6 days, as a planning figure rather than a lab result.
What the listing says
- 92-CAN CAPACITY: 55-quarts holds up to 92 cans without ice.
- 5 DAYS COLD: Stays cold for up to 5 days thanks to fully insulated lid and body.
- EXTRA-THICK WALLS: Walls are up to two inches thick to maximize durability and ice retention.
- 25% LIGHTER THAN ROTOMOLDED COOLERS: The Coleman Pro 55QT is designed to be 25% lighter than rotomolded coolers of the same capacity so you can get outside easier.
