I don't have one, don't plan to buy one and I don't boycott companies as a rule. They make a good cooler, but today there are many other options that do just as well at 1/2 the cost. For most people keeping ice a little longer isn't that important. They do, but the difference between them and a $50 Coleman Extreme isn't that great. If you are in a situation where you need ice to last for days with no resupply you'll get an extra day with the high end coolers. Most people who use them day to day start over every day with fresh ice anyway.
To me the biggest advantage of the high end coolers is better hinges and latches. If used hard on a daily basis they will probably pay for themselves by lasting longer.
Another disadvantage of the high end coolers is weight. The insulation is thicker which adds weight, and reduces internal space with coolers of the same external size.
