do any of ya'll have the coolers with cushions on top, how do they hold up? I'm thinking of using a couple on my V in place of seats, just wondering if they will hold up, or which brands are better than the others

The rubbermaid I bought does not have the split lid. I had an old rubbermaid which did, and I liked that a lot better.

I had one before they were pretty good. I just hand them a floating seat PFD and let them sit on that now.

Hey Nipper, I bought the same cooler at Sams club 2 years ago for about the same price. It holds up ok but ice dosent seem to last very long in it. You just have to pack it FULL of ice before you begin your trip. I wash out and freeze gallon milk jugs and keep in the deep freezer, they last a long time and help to fill up that big *** cooler. Saves a little on buying all that crushed ice too.

MJ, why would you need one of those? Can't you just walk outside and scoop up all the ice you need?
