What are the better rotomold coolers today? I have seen some at Sam's Club that I think were Igloo made. I also wonder about brands like Orca and RTIC. What is good in a ~30qt size for the money? I'm initially thinking Engel Deep Blue 35qt but, wonder about others in the $150~$200 range that have a lot of insulation and are not the cheap flimsy "walmart" 5-day variety that fails too quickly.
 
The igloo coolers I've had have all performed well.
 
Yeti is expensive, heavy, and are pretty incredible in how long they can keep ice from melting.

I am looking at the Yeti Roadie 24qt model myself though, at $200 is pretty darn spendy.

These seem to be better than Yeti though so, I'm likely to get a Roadie 24 at some point.

I use Igloo coolers for short trips, and my larger Yeti for longer trips. It is really amazing how well it holds the cold. I am sure there are quite a few great brands. Keeping perishables cold is worth the money!
 
Get the big Igloo and two small cheap styro coolers to put inside. Twice the cooling, two compartments.
 
I've had a yeti for several years. I would never have purchased it, we won it in a raffle, but I'll replace it if something ever happens.
its heavy, and loaded up you need two people to carry it, but it works as advertised.
