Handle.01

A great accessory for your Oyster

Having a handle option is great when taking the cooler on short distances. The strap is superior for longer carrying needs. That said the handle, while quick and easy to install/use, is made from very thin aluminum which can bend and easily deform when not on the cooler. Being thin and lightweight has both advantages and disadvantages. While my handle bent/deformed on first use, Oyster customer service was excellent in quickly resolving the issue. Now I know how delicate the handle is and I manage accordingly.

Best cooler out there!

I've tried many coolers over the years and the oyster beats them all by a mile! I've left it in a hot car camping for multiple days and the contents inside are still cold. It has great carrying capacity despite its small size. Its a great all around product if you need one go to cooler!

The handle is definitely my preferred method of travel. I’ve heard concerns expressed that the handle is likely the weakest point and will likely go out first. I love it and hope it lasts forever though time will tell. It’s lightweight and pretty comfortable I have no complaints with it.
