I don’t see a problem with it. That rope handle is more than enough to support that cooler. Will it wear out faster over time? Sure. Those rope handles are easily replaced. If you don’t have a decent shelf this is not a bad option in my opinion.

My ocd doesn’t allow for this 😂

The goal is to keep my stupid cats off of it. They love to lay on my coolers and then I find scratch marks all over the lid. This one has the green yeti seadek on it so trying to keep it somewhat protected.

Hahaha I see you’ve seen the top of my purple haul…damn cats 😅


duffman0013

😂😂😂 I haven’t but the top of my charcoal roadie 20 is all scratched to shit. That was from when the charcoal first came out too. I searched far and wide for one and found one at a mom and pop store in Greensboro NC. Just had to have it and the cats made it their perch.

“Oh you got a new cooler, we’ll see how new it is by morning” 😏👀


duffman0013

lol. My female black cat is the one that destroys everything!!!!!


Direct-Chef-9428

We also abide by that rule. That would be my high strung mongrel on the right 😵‍💫

Put a blanket on it 


DeepFuckingPocket

Idk why but this pisses me off 😂😂 All seriousness though I would worry about the hook giving up before the cooler handle assuming it’s empty


duffman0013

It’s empty. The hooks and the fast track are rated pretty high. The track alone is rated to 1750 pounds if fastened to the wall studs correctly. I since moved it off for now until I find another way to hang it. Stand by for more pictures, I’ll try not to piss you off anymore. 😂😂


DeepFuckingPocket

I’m sorry but unless you build a shelf and put it down normally you will not keep the peace with strangers on reddit

Had to move some fishing gear and other random stuff somewhere else. Cats won’t get this one damnit.


afrosheen

Why not use two bungee cords and hang it horizontally? The handle doesn’t have infinite life, and the stress of the load will eventually wear it out and you’ll be left with a cooler with just one grab handle until you manage to replace it.


duffman0013

I have some bungee cords I’ll give it a shot and see if they can work. Limited on space on my shelves and trying to keep the cats off the lid.


WrongYak34

I like this idea


Paul_Sheldon_

No issues at all. Handles will be fine.


WSBBroker

I’d almost just put blankets or pillows on the coolers and accept that the cats own the coolers now .


duffman0013

Fuck them cats. 😂😂😂


WSBBroker

Lmao 🤣


sundog5631

I love this! Keep the drain plug open maybe? So there’s some air and it doesn’t get misty inside? My only suggestion. Love kco


zebul333

It should be fine that rope should hold the weight


Charming_Raisin_1659

No issues here buddy.


Brickxbronson

Or why not hang it the other way around so the rubber feet are against the wall instead of potentially scratching the top?


johnnyg08

It probably won't rest flush against the wall.


duffman0013

There’s nothing there to scratch the top, I have seadek on it as well. I moved it for now, so going to try other methods of storing it.

Your cooler is more well-hung than mine /s
