I think all the coolers of this type are pretty heavy in comparison to the standard built type coolers but they sure do hold ice a hel of a lot longer.
On one of their big sales last year I picked up the 45 and the 65. Liked them so well that on the next big sale they had I bought a 30 and 40 soft pack cooler. We use the soft pack 30 the most and I was very impressed with how well they held ice this summer when we were out of town at soccer tournaments. Even sitting in the trunk of a black car, all weekend long, it held ice with no problem.
