Magellan Outdoors Ice Box

If you are in the market for a new personal cooler to keep on the boat, in the truck, or around the house, the Magellan Outdoors 35 Quart Ice Box is an excellent choice for keeping your food and drinks cold, and at just $100, it is even harder to pass up. For the size and build quality, you will not find anything close to it without spending nearly twice the money. 

A Magellan Outdoors Ice Box is one of those pieces of gear that lands right in the middle of price and performance.

The 35-quart footprint is what makes this cooler so useful. It is small enough to move around without any trouble, but still big enough to hold a full day’s worth of drinks, ice, and snacks. Whether it is riding in the back of the truck, tucked behind the leaning post, or sitting on the porch, this cooler fits into whatever you are doing without taking up too much space. You do not have to think about it or make room for it—this ice box goes wherever you need to keep something cold.

Magellan kept the design simple, and that is part of why it works. The inside stays clean, the insulation does its job, and the handles, hinges, and latches feel solid without being overbuilt. It is a cooler meant to be used, and the value you get at the $100 price point is what really sets it apart. You are not paying for hype or branding. You are paying for something that shows up and does what it is supposed to do.

The small touches help, too. The built-in bottle opener on the lid is one of those things you do not think about until you need it. The soft side handles are comfortable when the cooler is loaded down, and the pressure release button keeps the lid from sticking when it is packed tight with ice. 

All of these features, as well as an antimicrobial liner to keep it clean, a fabric strap on both sides to improve portability, and a drain on the back for quick cleanup, make the cooler an easier to your outdoor life.
