I just purchased a 10 gallon rubbermaid cooler from Lowe's. I tested 6 gallons in it at 162 degrees for an hour with blankets on top. It ended at 158. I've read that some fill the lid with foam to help heat loss. This may even be better?
My question is, for those of you who've gone that route, are you happy with results? Or should I return this cooler and look into one of those more expensive coolers that make claims about holding temp for long periods of time. If you had it to do all over again, what would you do?
Thanks in advance.
