Oyster Tempo Cooler - Best Iceless Metal Cooler for Camping?
In this Oyster Tempo cooler review, I test out this innovative vacuum-insulated camping cooler that promises to keep contents cold without regular ice. This aluminum cooler uses patented vacuum insulation technology for rapid cooling and impressive ice retention. I put the Oyster Tempo to the test during some 110+ degree Texas days. It held temperatures below 40°F for 24 hours with just the included ice packs. Then I tried it with no ice packs and it still kept food and drinks chilled for hours. The Tempo is sleek and compact at just 20" x 12" x 13" and 12 lbs. The 25-quart capacity holds up to 36 cans with no ice needed. Dual side latches provide easy access, and the removable lid enables simple cleaning.
This lightweight metal cooler is perfect for van life, camping, beach days, picnics, outdoor adventures, and everyday use. If you're looking for the best cooler for keeping things chilled in 2023 without the hassle of ice, the Oyster Tempo is an innovative option worth considering. It combines smart Norwegian design with iceless performance that reinvents traditional coolers.
Check out my full Oyster Tempo review and cooling test results in the video to see this one-of-a-kind vacuum-insulated camping cooler in action! Let me know in the comments if you have any other questions about the Oyster Tempo or recommendations for other coolers to review and compare it to.

@@Stonyboot I think a rubber insert in the handle or over the handle would be a great addition. It would mean you don’t have to grab a hot handle and would keep the handle from scratching the cooler body.

@@Stonyboot in case Oyster is looking at the comments here: the strap is useless to me and probably for many women. I’m 5’5”, 120 pounds. Straps like that are useless to . My shoulders aren’t wide enough to keep that strap secure. Love the handle. But a padded sleeve over the part that you grab to carry would help a lot, especially if you’ve really loaded up the cooler with some weight.

It looks like NASA designed it. A rubberized covering on the handle would make it cooler to the touch after sitting in the hot sun and prevent marking up the sidewalls. Other than that, it looks and sounds pretty cool. (No pun intended lol)

If you want to keep things really cold, I have a cooler pack that freezes (changes phase) at 5F. It does take more than a day in the freezer to freeze all the way through. Works real well in my Walmart (Yeti style) cooler.

@Stonyboot 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for the tips! I’ve heard that Oyster will be coming out with a phase change freeze pack too. I froze these at -5 but the phase change materials try to regulate it at between 32-40f. I’ll check Walmart for the packs you’re talking about.

@philipvecchio3292 10 ай бұрын

Are you in Humid Texas or Dry Texas? I could imagine putting a damp towel over top and extending the coolness a little bit, but only if it's dry. I don't know why it reminds me of my canteen when I was younger. The idea with the canteen was that you could fill it up with water from a creek and the water on the outside of the canteen would provide a little bit of cooling as it evaporated. I could see a cloth cover that could help with shading and maybe a little cooling. It's not as practical for cars as much, though.

VIP’s (vacuum insulated panels) in a roto-molded cooler would be ideal, that thing looks fragile. Otherwise i use a one gallon vacuum insulated jug (price effective) or smaller ones to put cans in or hot burritos! Then use an ORCA Cooler. The GoSun portable fridge pairs well with 266wh battery and 100w solar panel for glamping. This cooler you are reviewing needs ice packs 😂 no ice 🤣

I understand completely. There is a huge market for coolers in the $200-$1000 range and it’s kind cool and crazy at the same time. Yeti has become huge with plastic and foam. It’s all about marketing. The Oyster Tempo is far more sophisticated and I hope it gets its moment in the spotlight. Such a cool toy!

Useless data without comparison with rotomolded coolers. My Yeti Roadie 24 costs 3 times less. For these additional 350eur I can buy 350kg of ice. Considering I'm using my cooler 2 times in a month at the summer and maybe ones at spring and autumn.. well. I usually put a big Yeti Ice at the bottom and then 2kg of fresh ice to fill the space between food and drinks. The price difference gives me 14 years! Ok maybe I decide to take cooler with me at winter, or puting into it 3 kg of ice someday. With all these exceptions, the price difference will last me over 10years.
