Ok I'm starting to get irritated with these things. I own 4 and they all leak. I just bought a new one about a month ago and it already leaks. Also just had one repaired, had it out once and it leaks.

I don't put glass bottles, empty cans, bottle caps or anything sharp in them.

Everyone I know complains about these things leaking. So has anyone had good luck with these? Or can someone recommend a better product? I'm getting tired of soaked carpet in my boat.


Thanks

That's bizarre. We have 3 of them. One tore the liner but that was from trying to stuff 2 30 packs and ice in to it. Other than that never one issue.

Give them a call. They're good people.

NGE, we have had our soft cooler for over 5 years had to repair it once. Call Amber over at AO tell her your frustration she will work with you . Last weekend my aunt had her cooler on my porch and it was leaking all over. So I told her you have a hole somewhere need to go get it repaired. AOCoolers

I don't like soaked carpet under my bow where no sun hits it. It will start to smell moldy (just like in ski lockers). Sorry for ruining your day PTC.

Bought mine at the LA Boat Show awhile back and it has leaked from day one. To much of a hassle to do anything about it. Still use it, it's just a little wet on the outside.

Anyone consider sharp ice may be cutting them? Of course you could never get that in Havi since its half melted when you purchase.

Yea but you have to pay them 12 bucks or something then wait almost a month to get it back. The reason I bought a new one was so I had one to use while I waited for one to get repaired.

That's the only thing I can think of that's possibly going wrong. I'll call tomorrow and see what they say.

3 years no leaks but I never pack them too full... Half way with drinks and then ice.. And I usually don't do the ice until the cooler is in the boat... Also when I'm done I pull the liner upside down and out to dry when it's in the garage to air out....
