Our verdict

A compact hard cooler that makes the most sense for crews already using ToughBuilt StackTech boxes, since it locks into that stack. Ice retention is not stated, so do not count on it for multi-day trips without checking.

Overview

An auto-locking lid seals a hard plastic shell lined with polyurethane foam, and the cooler body is shaped to join ToughBuilt's StackTech system of boxes and totes. Inside, a dry-good tray holds food apart from the ice, and a drain spout lets meltwater out without tipping the chest.

Riding on top of a StackTech tool tower is what sets this cooler apart, so lunch and drinks travel with the gear in one stack. A bottle opener and drain spout cover the small chores. Its compact chamber suits one or two people, and no ice retention figure is given.

Who it's for

Job sites and day outings where one person needs cold drinks and a lunch are where this cooler earns its place, especially when it rides on a StackTech tower. Groups feeding several people over a weekend will outgrow its compact chamber.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Locks into ToughBuilt StackTech stacks
  • Auto-locking lid stays shut in transport
  • Lid can be locked
  • Built-in bottle opener
Cons
  • Ice retention time not listed
  • Small capacity for group outings
  • Stacking needs separate StackTech pieces

Performance notes

Cold holding depends on the polyurethane foam in the walls and how tightly the auto-locking lid seals against the shell. Opening it less often and chilling the contents first reduces melt, and the drain spout lets you dump meltwater so the dry-good tray stays clear of water.
