Extremus Rendu Soft Cooler

I’d had the 30 Can Rendu cooler for a couple of weeks and I’ve been impressed. The quality is on par with much more expensive soft coolers. The stitching is prefect and appears to be very durable. The welded seams are well done and durable. This cooler is definitely water tight so you don’t have to worry about it leaking if it gets knocked over. It’s compact, light weight, and offers 3 different ways to carry it. The flat top makes for a good place to sit your cold drink. The cooler will definitely hold 30 cans plus ice but I found that 24 cans with extra ice was what worked best for me. I’ve seen 48+ hours of ice every time I’ve used it (I always put cold drinks into the cooler. It helps extend the life of the ice). Buy it, you won’t be disappointed!

I got this because my old soft side cooler began leaking and was just a pain to lug around. This bag had decent reviews and the sturdier cube shape that I was looking for. It is nicely made from quality materials and with nice tight seaming. I did not have any trouble with the zipper so I will save the included lube incase it gets sticky later. I really like that the external pockets are useable for koozies and bottle openers - anything that's mostly flat. It will also hold any cutlery you may need. The bottle opener is securely affixed to the side and easy to use. The cooler compartment is deep enough to hole bottles of wine upright with about 3" of space to spare. It will hold 10 bottles of wine, 24 bottles of beer or 30 cans - with room for ice too. It is really waterproof - does not leak at all and it keeps ice all day while we are on the boat in 95-100 degree heat. The bottom has non-skid material so it stays put wherever you put it. The top is actually pretty flat & sturdy enough to use as a table. We rent RVs for vacations and are experienced campers. The RV rental is great for us as we don't have to deal with storage & maintenance costs. It does take a bit more planning when packing as we have to bring everything we'll need with us to put into the RV. We have it down pretty good but space & amount of stuff is always an issue. This cooler is definitely a welcome addition to our gear.

Field test on the water today - kept our brews and sandwiches properly chilled. Well-built, good retention options, handy shoulder strap for carrying down to the water w/ boards. Wasn't able to assess waterproof-ness, we used a freezer pack not loose ice. but it's legit. Thickness of insulation comparable to Yeti, it will keep stuff cold for a long time.

We buy our milk from a special farmer that only does grass fed milk. It is not too bad usually, except in the summer, it is tough to keep the milk cold as we go to and from the farm as it is not near our home. This cooler answers that problem.HOW TO OPENThis comes with a zipper and an extra pull included. I can see why. This zipper is quite difficult to use. The pack includes a lubrication tube and tells you how to keep the zipper working. Well, I did it several times and it still is not easy to slide the zipper.INSIDEThe inside is quite a bit smaller than the outside due to the insulation. Our milk bottles will only fit long ways instead of sideways as I thought they would.DOES IT KEEP THINGS COLD?I have to say that I got some yogurt the other day and did not have ice to put in the cooler. I put in 3 containers of yogurt which were quart sized. I had them in there for about 5 hours. When I got home, the yogurt was still pretty cold. I am impressed.STRAPS/HANDLEThe straps and handle on this cooler are really great. The shoulder strap makes it easy for me to carry this along with the other things I have to carry in the house It is comfortable and works out well.LEAKS?This did not leak so far when ice melts.THE BOTTOM LINEThis is the perfect cooler for getting our milk this summer. It will allow me to make the trip and not be so concerned about keeping the milk cold in our other coolers because this one with some ice included will work perfectly.MY RATINGFIVE STARS although the zipper on this is very frustrating and I would like to take off a star, but I don't think it is that bad at this point. I will update of anything changes.

This looks like it is going to be a great cooler. I've had it for just a few days, so I have limited experience with it, but I wanted to get a good word in for it straight away. It is more rigid than other soft-sided coolers that I own and definitely not collapsable. This is likely due to type and large quantity of insulation in the sides. The top has a rigid feel to it and I think it will support a couple drinks no problem if you want to use it as a table of sorts. It is well constructed and looks to be very durable. Only time will tell. The leak proof zipper is a plus, and it is a little difficult to operate at first. Once you are used to it, there is not a problem. Just don't expect to zip it open or closed quickly with one hand. Our weather is on the cool side now, so I tested it indoors where it is warmer. I put in three cans of chilled pop and 2 bottles of unchilled wine. I used one large and two small blue ice packs-less than recommended. After 24 hours all the beverages were 46 degrees and the ice packs were still pretty solid. So, I think with a greater supply of ice, it will keep drinks and food cool for quite a good amount of time. I plan to use it mostly for car camping, travel, tailgating, picnics, and back yard gatherings. One thing that I really like is that it is large enough for a wine bottle to lay down. I look forward to really giving it a work out this summer and think it will do a great job.

We only used this cooler once so far and I will change the rating to 5 stars after some more time. On its first task it kept our ice cream sandwiches cool for about 1.5 hours with no problem. My wife loaded 24 sandwiches plus three flat freezer packs in there and had some room to spare. We chose this size because it was the Goldilocks between the three.It seems like it’s durable because it looks well made and is light weight. The walls and top are pretty thick so I’m counting on future ventures to be promising. It’s pretty sturdy empty so when you pack it up I feel any food inside will be protected well.Overall, we like it a lot.The only complaint my wife had was that the zipper was hard to use. I too found it a little tough but did not mind it. I’m sure it’s intentional to keep the cool in and the heat out. Plus you get a lubricant to keep the zipper happy but I did not use it yet.

I have been using the Extremus Rendu Soft Cooler for a few weeks now and would like to share my experience.To start, I have to say that there are far more positive aspects to this cooler than there are drawbacks. If you are looking for a feature-rich cooler that doubles as an insulated bag of sorts, this product might be exactly what you are looking for.I got this cooler for use in my car. I needed something that was waterproof and could easily fit on the floor in the back seat of my car. This cooler is both the right size and does not leak, so I am happy about that.There are many other cool features that I didn't even notice when ordering this cooler bag. First, the construction is sturdy but doesn't look bulky. It's a nice-looking unit that doesn't stick out. There are also some padded strap handles and a padded shoulder strap with carabiner-style hooks that make transporting the thing quite easy.Additionally, there are side handles and extra hooks on the front straps that you can hang things on (like keys, multi-tool, etc.). I suppose that it would not be very difficult to hoist this cooler up into a tree if you were camping in bear country, thanks to all the straps and handles. It would also be easy to secure it inside of a small boat or on the back of an ATV.Another nice thing (and probably the most important) is its ability to keep things cold for a very long time. Thanks to the thick, multi-layer insulation and water-/air-tight zipper, cold stays in all day. How long obviously relates to how often it is opened and how long the lid is left unzipped, but I'd say most people would have no issue with keeping things cold all day, even on hot days.Although I like everything about this cooler, there are a few things that some people may want to consider. First, the zipper is quite difficult to zip. It is this way on purpose as it is meant to keep cold and liquid in, but for people lacking in finger or hand strength, it could be an issue. There is an included lubricant for the zipper that comes with the cooler, but even that fact tells you that the tight zipper is a known 'feature' of this cooler.The only other thing that I thought was a bit strange was that the cooler came smelling like some kind of perfume. I don't know why and haven't really tried to figure it out. But, it gives the impression that some chemicals may not have been completely washed out before shipping. I would advise giving this cooler a good washing before use.All in all, I would recommend this cooler to anyone looking for a compact cooler that does its job well.

This cooler is awesome. My fiancé uses this for work. He works outside all day so he can pack plenty of drinks and snacks to take with him. He leaves it in his car all day even though it’s 80-90 degrees outside everything is perfect.We will also take this with us to the beach this year as it is absolutely perfect for that. Tight seal. Comes with lubricant for the zipper to loosen which is good because it was hard to zip at first. I highly recommend this at a way better price than a yeti

Really nice cooler at a great price. Everything feels really well built and of high quality materials. I have no doubt this cooler will last a long time. The zipper is a little stiff, but that’s to be expected on a high quality water proof zipper. The cooler includes zipper lube which helps. The included bottle opener is a great addition. I chose the 12 can size for easy travel and it works great for that. I can easily fit 12 cans in it with room for some ice. The size is great for throwing over my shoulder as we ride to the beach or pool. Another awesome product from a great company. I’ll definitely be buying a larger version in the future, but this size fit my needs perfectly on our recent vacation.

Got this yesterday. Shipped nicely! Arrived perfectyl. It's the same footprint as the Last King large lunker bag. Same height and width as well. I would probably be careful what to not put anything super sharp inside, as it is a soft cooler. The plastic inner linings seems durable for normal cooler contents. May also be a reasonable solution for keeping your catch in also, but mind pointy find. Later this day, I will go out some ice and drinks in to see how it keeps. The zipper was a little tight, as to be expected I would thing, do to the vinyl "seal". It comes with a tube of food grade lubricant that helps. Will probably ease up with use. I may end up getting a smaller version to use, as I foresaid, for fish I catch, and to keep bait in. The inside liner should be easy to clean. Can't comment as to long term durability, but will update the review as necessary. Has a shoulder strap, seems fine. If it anything like the strap from my saltwater use lunker bag, it should be fine. All in all, I recon I made a good choice. Have had zero issue with this family of products! Will add pictures when I get some ice and stuff in it!

I haven't had it out camping yet but the Construction is a really nice it reminds me a lot of the RTC cooler but nicer. Thick walls and a super thick top
