ERGONOMIC COOLERS

A cooler includes a body, a cover coupled to the body, and an extendable handle. The body includes a base, a first and second sidewall extending from the base and positioned to face one another, and a third and fourth sidewall extending from the base and positioned to face one another. The third and fourth sidewalls extend from the first sidewall to the second sidewall. The handle includes a first and second bar and a center bar extending from one end of the first bar to one end of the second bar. The handle is positionable in an extended position and a retracted position. In the retracted position, the horizontal component of the distance from the center bar to the fourth sidewall is less than when the positioned in the extended position. The handle is either slidably coupled or telescopically coupled to the first and second sidewalls.
