We bought the cooler cover after seeing it. It's really well made and really nice to have. Great pull handle across the front for removing it from it's storage space. The coolers are pretty great too, but we bought our last bag of ice in Montgomery, Alabama and even though we drained some water off along the way, it was still original ice in SC and three days of camping later. We weren't planning on getting it but glad we left Necedah with it.
