RTIC 52 QT Ultra-Light Hard Cooler

RTIC 52 QT Ultra-Light hard cooler offers big capacity with a lighter build, suiting campers who carry coolers long distances.

Price range: $$$ (Premium)

What we liked

  • + 52 QT capacity handles a long weekend for a small family
  • + Ultra-light design is easier to lift than rotomolded rivals
  • + Much cheaper than YETI while keeping solid ice retention

Trade-offs

  • - Thinner walls hold ice for less time than heavy rotomolded coolers
  • - Lighter shell is not as tough for standing or rough handling
