Hey Roksliders,
Travis Bertrand and I saw this product at the Salt Lake Expo and were intrigued to say the least. The demonstrations were convincing enough that we decided to partner with The Cooler Tray company as an official sponsor. You'll see their new banner on the Antelope forum.
We've arranged for 7 trays to be tested. Travis and fellow Rokslide writer, Josh Boyd, will be reviewing them in their upcoming summer cooler reviews, but I'd like to recruit 5 members to use them under varying conditions and report back on this thread by early July on what their thoughts were.
If you'd like to participate, please post up in the comments below:
1) where & what conditions you'll be using The Cooler Tray in,
2) what cooler or cooler(s) you'll use.
Once I have at least five entries with different conditions and coolers, I'll choose five and send out the trays. Please don't enter if you can't meet the early July deadline. All feedback will be posted on this thread and we'll need photos and/or video too!

and a little more about The Cooler Tray and a video:
Inventor Bryan Kendrick said the impetus for the design came from the continual hassle of having to throw away spoiled food that had grown soggy and/or contaminated in the melted ice water. The patented design is a simple, perforated tray that users put into the bottom of their cooler before filling it with food and ice. Small legs on the bottom of the tray allow space below it for the melted ice water to collect and remain separate from the food.
The tray also makes the ice last longer. Results have varied, Kendrick said, but he has seen results that suggest ice will last up to 48 hours longer because the ice is no longer sitting in melted water causing it to melt faster. The Cooler Tray™ was designed to be universal, meaning it will fit most brand coolers from Igloo and Coleman to Yeti and Grizzly.
The tray adjusts both lengthwise and widthwise and can be used in cooler sizes from 40 quarts up to about 110 quarts. Its design provides enough support for up to 80 pounds of food and beverages.
The tray’s height allows for about 15-20 pounds of ice to melt and collect below the tray without the user having to empty the cooler. The Cooler Tray™ can be purchased from Ice-Olate’s website and Amazon online.
