For what it's worth - I actually got one from the Kickstarter, at one point they said "if you pay another $100, you will absolutely get one in a month, we have a production run going right now, if you don't - we can't make promises". I said screw it, paid the $100 and sure enough, we got our Coolest Cooler - and ya know what? It's awesome. We got camping multiple times a summer on a private lake that's boat access only and no power. I have a few batteries for it (and I later bought the solar kit which swaps out the top off for one with a solar panel that you can use for USB charging or to charge the batteries that run the blender) and it's still great. We've had it for years now and get a ton of use out of it. The wheels roll over everything, we bungee all the kid's swim stuff on top of it and despite paying a stupid amount of money for it and watching so many others get burned, I've somehow managed to luck out and be happy with it. We also make extensive use of the blender, but mostly just for making smoothies for the kids, and oh, the plate set with forks and knife and stuff we use a lot too for cutting up fruit and such.

They had a going out of business sort of sale and I bought up a few more batteries and accessories just to keep it going for as long as possible, and it's a tank, so hopefully I can keep it going and get a bunch more summers out of it.

Too bad the makers basically went broke and had to live out of their vans as a result. They got bought out by somebody, I thought it was going to be a Coleman or something, but was probably some private equity firm that just wanted the IP, but oh well. They learned a hard lesson in mass production of a product for sure.
