Colman 24 hour ice cooler is a great lunch pale but you will be lucky to get 4 hours of the 24 hours of ice it claims. Filled it with water 4 bottles 20oz and 3 sodas 12oz all cold from the refrigerator and no ice after 4 hours ..red and black with the silver quick grab top ..

I have never been so disappointed in a company that my family and I have grow up with! THEY HAVE NO RETURN POLICY! I am not a person who doesn't gets upset, but I am incredibly pissed that a $160 item can not be mailed back if doesn't work for us.So glad I checked before ordering! MY WHOLE FAMILY AND I ARE GOING TO BE STAYING AWAY FROM COLMEN FROM NOW ON!

My Coleman tent got destroyed by wind, and left messages to try and buy replacement parts but nobody can be bothered to call me back. Coleman's customer service is absolutely terrible and for this reason I will never buy or recommend their products.

Purchased a Coleman 12 ft. x 12 ft. Canopy Shelter. Used the canopy on the beach four times and packed it up. A year later, discovered that one of the plastic brackets was broken. Checked on Coleman website and could not locate the bracket. From the website, sent an email asking to purchase the bracket. No response after over a week, so called the Support Line. Explained that my email had not been answered and provided the Incident Reference #, so she could see the email and the pictures of the bracken, model #, and even a picture of the bar code from the box. She left the line for a few minutes, returning to tell me, "They don't sell those parts for liability reasons". She then offered me a 25% off if I purchased a new canopy from her. I explained that my canopy had only been used 5 times, the last time with duct tape holding the support arm. Obviously Coleman is interested ONLY in selling new equipment and not supporting the equipment they already sold.

Bad customer service... Agents telling me that it would take so many days and it was a lot longer... Was prepared to pay for four day shipping and the fellow that I talked to said no they called me from the shipping part of the company said no it'll be here 45 days with you just paid $24 and he said it should be here Thursday and Friday of this week I checked in on that a couple times I asked him up at least three times if that was right and he said yes okay then when the lady called me the next day or at that night I called her back and then nothing was true... And she was the only one Sarah that said that there is no refunds but this was after I told them refund it and I hadn't heard about it before it doesn't say it on the paper from the order that where I ordered before... I've used over and over and over again for coolers Can't Say Never Again

Then they called me on the third day to verify the order it took me 13 days to get that order I said okay it's messed up well when I called back I said something about 2 day shipping and then I said no for day shipping he said well we can get it to you in 4 to 5 days and it should be here in here Thursday and Friday I double check with him several times on that and then I get a call saying that no it won't be here till next week I'm just real tired of people not doing their job and that's why I'm cancelling... Let's also told me someone told me that there was no refunds nobody ever told me that accept Sarah which I talked to last night... They said that you have recordings I'd like to at least have a hard copy of those recordings very dissatisfied and any and everybody that will listen I will tell... I've already gotten ahold of the consumer awareness and did it complaint and the Better Business bureau's next you guys can't do business like this if I did business like this I will be fired

Dont waste your time with coleman products they suck bought a pair of boots about amonth ago and they are are starting to fall apart i wouldnt suggest any coleman products to anyone

We purchased a canopy about a month ago. Last nite we had a rain, this morning the frame was all broken. Whence we got to looking the frame is made out of very thin aluminum. I understand that you want to keep the weight down, but we thought we were buying something a little bit more stable. If it can't go though a rain with no wind I don't consider this stable. We have always considered coleman a very good outdoor company. Not so much after what just happened. Thanks for time and will be looking for your return message.

I have two pairs of Coleman 6 inch or so waterproof boots. I purchased the pair of Coleman Dry boots around 1994 and they are still waterproof. The other boots are around 4 or 5 years old have no specific name on them, such as most of your latest boots, and they have very little wear, but the sole is separating from the leather section of the boot and they leak like a sieve. I worked in the recent floods in West Virginia in the newer boots and got my feet wet each time that I wore them. I am very disappointed in those boots. I am retired and on a fixed income and would like to purchase a new pair of boots but will not purchase more Coleman boots because of the performance of this last pair of 'waterproof" boots that I bought from your company. If there is any kind of adjustment that you could make, I would greatly appreciate it. I bought the boots at your Coleman store in Seiverville, TN and do not have receipt or remember exactly when I bought them.

Bought a Coleman aboveground pool. Have called customer service for ten days now. Everyone there tells a different story on why the missing parts to my pool have not arrived. I have been told it shipped then it has not shipped then it shipped again. I have been given every excuse and runaround. I askedto speak to a supervisor and was told they didn't have them. Spent over three hundred dollars on a pool that was missing lots of pieces in factory sealed box. Worst customer service I have ever seen. Will never buy a coleman product again. Shame on you Coleman

I contacted your company earlier this afternoon regarding a leakimg coleman propane tank. Your people were apologetic and give me the number to the manufacturer. I called them and there response was underwhelming. Rude, unapologetic, and told me there was nothing that can be done about the rank smell in my boat. My whole boat smells so bad we cant use it. This problem is going on three weeks now. I am sure that there is some kind of cleaner or chemical that will disperse the smell. I would appreciate a response.

To whom it may concern I had recently purchased a adventure backpack on wheels for school unfortunately within a months time the zipper had torn away from the backpack itself I don't understand how one can pay so much money for a backpack and have that happen and college books flying out of it not to mention with the handle itself no longer goes up or down just thought I would do this complaint and to let you know that this is very upsetting and I hope that you can take care of that real soon I don't know that I will ever buy another coleman product ever again sincerely. Missy hillmer. You can reach me by mail

Unable to offer me a replacement part. Nor are they even able to provide the measurements to their own product. Have absolutely no clue! Unable to back their product! I would not recommend Coleman to anyone. It is not the same company I grew up with when I was younger. They had quality products backed by good wholesome values. Now it is cheap turn a quick buck with no regards to the people that keep them in business. Sad to see another company, that had THEE name in camping, throw away their standards and morals.

Coleman is a terrible company with an underdeveloped conception of customer service. They are very rigid and unwilling to to be flexible when their policies conflict with common sense solutions to issues that arise as a result to their poorly designed policies. Their policies are not oriented to serving their customers, but instead create a shocking surprise for any customer who has the misfortune of needing to contact a living representative of the company. I've had 2 recent experiences with Coleman customer service and each time found myself sorely underserved and even will go so far as say aggressively mistreated. Coleman was always a trusted brand throughout my life, but then I never had to call their customer service, and now I think I will boycott Coleman products just because the people running the company are such jerks. I'll also note here that when trying to call them I wasn't able to get through to anyone until I participated in an electronic 4 question survey, which is just WRONG to force your customers to do.

The worst company regarding reaching a customer service rep. Wait time by phone is a minimum of 30 minutes. On line chat option even worse as message appears indicating a short time but then soon afterwards another message appears stating no agents are available! Email is another joke - they don't even respond to the email they ask for you to send!
