Our verdict

A wheeled hard cooler that rolls large loads to the campsite or beach without a carry partner. Its foam walls are thinner than heavy duty rotomolded coolers, and no ice retention time is listed.

Overview

Not a carry by hand ice chest, the Igloo Trailmate is a roller cooler with soft-ride wheels and a marine-grade telescoping handle. Foam fills the walls and the lid, and extras include a bottle opener, cup holders, a lockable lid and a drain plug.

Rolling a full load is why to buy it: the wheels and handle let one person move a cooler of drinks over campground paths. Ice life is the open question, since the listing promises extended retention without a number of days.

Who it's for

Campers, beachgoers and tailgaters moving food and drinks from car to site will use the wheels every trip. Long expeditions far from ice resupply call for a thicker walled cooler.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wheels and telescoping handle for one person
  • Large capacity for groups
  • Drain plug for easy emptying
  • Bottle opener and cup holders built in
Cons
  • Ice retention days not listed
  • Thinner walls than heavy duty coolers
  • Bulky to lift into a trunk

Performance notes

Ice life depends on wall and lid foam, how often the lid opens and whether the cooler is left in the sun. The insulated lid closes a common weak point. Large wheels roll better over grass and gravel than small casters, but sand still slows them.
