    Can't wait to hear feedback. So far these are the best looking that I have seen, I really like the way they latch, looks to be better than the others. Even with the discount I couldn't justify the price yet. What's your thoughts, what was your previous or other cooler? Those are sharp looking.

    I can already tell i will prefer my Orion 25 over my RTIC 45

    biggest 2 reasons are the built in bottle openers and the handles

    RTIC has foam handles on ropes whereas the Orion has rubberized grips that feel MUCH sturdier

    From all the research I've done they say the best part about the cooler is the latches haha can you agree or what?

    For anyone on the fence on a second purchase, or a first, my favorite colors I've seen so far are the Rockfish and Blaze

    My dad has a Sky coming and I have another Mahi coming. Stay tuned for more feedback

    I'm loving everything about these. The pad on top feels like a suede rubber almost. It's the same rubber as my kayak.

    Overall, this is by far the nicest cooler ever had my hands on

    Anyone get this? I like the idea of sitting on my bear. My 65 gets here tomorrow, this is my first high dollar cooler.
