The Dometic Recon Hardside Large 69L Ice Chest is robust and versatile, designed to accompany you on every adventure, from camping to van travel and more. With a capacity of 69 litres, it can hold up to 100 cans and is tall enough to accommodate bottles of wine, making it ideal for weekend getaways or day trips with friends - the foundation of your stackable, road-ready Recon system.
Maximum capacity, minimal footprint – great on its own or as the base of a multi-coolbox Recon system. Its durable injection-moulded shell streamlines the profile, making it lighter and less bulky than roto-moulded options. Two inches of performance insulation hold the cold; the lid opens from either side and comes off for easy access. Drop in basket and divider included.
The injection-moulded shell cuts weight without sacrificing strength. Two inches of performance insulation keep contents cold. The dual-hinge lid opens from either side—or removes completely when wide-open access is what you need.
The Recon hard coolers still promise an estimated eight-day ice retention through two inches of insulation, but they do it without the back-breaking heft of most large coolers. Also, the latches double as bottle openers, because of course they do.
Space-efficient design: Sized for long trips and designed to be the foundation of your stackable multi-unit Recon system, the 69 l capacity holds 100 cans and its tall enough for wine bottles. Versatile size for family trips, weekend adventures, or as a part of your stable multi-unit Recon system.
Stackable & packable: Increase storage without adding square footage - stackable design and a rubber top that minimise slipping and skidding allow you to pack more in minimal space.
Lightweight durability: Injection-moulded construction with welded seams and two inches of performance insulation make Recon up to 30% lighter than other coolboxes of the same size
Ergonomic where it counts: Soft-touch ergonomic handles flip down when not in use - easy to grab and go, even fully loaded.
Dual-opening removable lid: Open from front or back with pivot latches - or remove it entirely for a top-down load-in.
Vehicle-optimised recon system: Streamlined design to work as a gear system-maximum packability and performance - no wasted space.
Insulated drain plug: equipped with magnetic attachment above the drain hole for convenient liquid handling.
Accessories included: it comes with a divider and an internal basket to better organize the contents.
Tie-down points: Features efficient locking and lashing points to ensure safety during transport.
Built-in Bottle Opener: The die-cast metal hooks double as a bottle opener, adding extra functionality.

Tips for use!
If possible, store the Dometic iceboxes in cool surroundings for several hours before use and keep them out of direct sunlight. If being filled with drinks or groceries, we recommend chilling the items beforehand. Standard freezer packs or ice cubes are suitable as coolants. Air will compromise the cooling capacity and shorten the duration of cooling. Therefore, avoid opening it unnecessarily and pack the boxes as full as possible.
