Anybody own an AO Cooler?

Saw these at the Backpacker the other day and they've gotten some good reviews. About $60 for one that holds a case of beer with ice
ETA: I know it's not a YETI or whatever, but it's collapsible, lightweight, and does a descent job at a much easier price.

I've had the 36 model for the last year.
Great cooler for keeping fish in when out in the kayak, where space is limited for a hard sided cooler.
Ice retention is pretty good for a soft-side; in summer months, I get about 3 days holding 40lbs of ice. I usually only put 10-20lbs of ice though, but that is good for a full day trip.

i got that silver 36 in the second pic for my dad for fathers day. He loves it. no leaking and holds ice for longer than you'd think.
i have 2 polar bear coolers, one has been thrown away and the big one i have leaks badly. the AO with the vinyl like material on the outside seems pretty leakproof to me

No but thanks for the heads up on them. Been looking for a good soft sided no leak cooler as a gift for a while.

I think ill look into one as well. I've had two polar bear coolers and while they are great for a year or so they eventually leak.

Thanks for the reviews fellas. At the very least you have this guarantee:

Because of our confidence in this product we guarantee the coolers for life. If it ever leaks we’ll replace the liner.

I had to ship mine to them in January to get the liner replaced. A small pin hole resulted from too much extra liner within the bag. It was within the first year, so it did not cost me anything, and I had the option of either sending it back to get relined or having patches sent out. I chose to get it relined, but will say that their turn-around is not great- I was without the cooler for a good 3-4 weeks. Came back looking good as new though with much less liner material.

Do you have the vinyl outside or the more 'fabric' looking outer?

I have the fishing cooler with the vinyl outside.
