What Customers Are Saying
The cushion is generally comfortable and well-made, providing a good fit on the coolers. However, it has significant design flaws that limit its functionality. The straps interfere with the cooler's lid seal, compromising insulation performance. The attachment method is inconvenient, making it difficult to access the cooler. The straps also lack durability, often breaking or degrading quickly. While the added seating functionality is appreciated, the design issues outweigh the benefits for most users.

Love our RTIC cooler, have over 10 of them, soft and every size of the hard. This is the first product we’d give 0 stars to. Straps break and when on a boat it makes the cooler seat useless and it’ll blow off now if we left it as a seat and someone got up from it. Improve the quality of the straps or don’t sell this cushion. Maybe snaps would be better?

Poor straps quality
I used this cushion cooler combo on my boat. The straps both ripped after like 5 outings. I am very disappointed.

Meh
Please just copy yeti and have the cushion use snaps on a skirt. Your whole business model is designed on copying them so please copy their cushion. It goes through the seal and kills the ice retention.

Design Flaw
Quite disappointed in this product. The cushion itself is very nice and well made however there is a terrible design flaw with the straps. They are adjustable but barely long enough to even buckle which has caused the strap to fall through the loop on the buckle more than once already. Also the cooler can not seal properly with it on. Wish I would have paid attention to other reviews before purchasing. We love any other RTIC product we have tried but would not recommend this.

65 QT Cushion
I love the cushion for my 65QT cooler but the straps broke in less than 1 season. very disappointed because this cushion gave great extra seating and looked so good when it was new but didn't last 4 months for us.

Straps break easily
Need replacement strap. It broke almost immediately.

going strapless
I love the cooler and the cushion; I was very disappointed when the straps on the cushion broke. I was surprised when I received the cushion, that it had straps and not snaps. The straps didn't last 6 months. I hoped that the research and development team would have found a fix for this. The strap also breaks the seal on the rubber gasket. Bad design. I know you can do better.

Strap broke off
I have many rtic products and this is by far the worse made thin stitching to strap. I had it for about 4 months with this being the 4th use and it broke with normal use. Now i have to modify it using a ton of velcro. Cushion holds water btw.

Cushion is great. Straps turn to dust in less than a year.
I really loved this cushion. It felt durable, fit great, and was super comfortable. The straps didn't last a whole season. They didn't break they seem to rot and turn to dust, apparently from UV rays. Since there's no way to attach it to the lid, it's now useless on a boat.

Nice cushion, crap straps
Bought this cushion on 5/23/23 and the straps that hold it down have completely deteriorated and tore apart. RTIC has a cheeky 90 day warranty on accessories and gear so there’s no way to make it right. They say “durable” and yes maybe for the cushion itself (so far)but the part you need to make it work is absolute garbage. Seriously RTIC how much can you really be saving by not using a decent nylon strap?! I have ratchet straps and crappy deer stand straps that are 10+ years old. So yes it’s mu...

Great cushion iffy fastening method
Solid cooler cushion and a great deal. But does compromise the air tight nature of the cooler and fastening straps get dirty with fish in the cooler.
