  • Yeti hooked me!
Color: A2 Desert Tan
I finally broke down and bought a Yeti. I stressed more than I should about what size and turns out, the 45 is perfect. A cousin has several, some kept in the back of trucks (feed trucks, fuel trucks etc.) and they're indestructible but he admitted the 65 he has on one is way too big and regrets not getting the 45. In the past I've had Coleman Extreme's which I thought were awesome. They're several years old now and just don't seem to keep cold like they did, and may have slightly changed shape so they don't close tight like they did. My wife came in and saw this and freaked. It was worth it though. First time using it, opening weekend, I first put a little (1 bag) ice and cold drinks etc. in it on Thursday, after having it inside and with a 1 gallon jug of ice to pre-chill overnight. I didn't fill it with ice until Friday evening and kept the Yeti in the back of my Excursion, which got somewhat warm as it warmed up for the weekend. Fast forward to the next Wednesday, 4+ days later, all water of course with a few cold beverages still left. I checked the temp of the water and it was still 39*. I cleared it out and the next day I dumped the water and dried it to put up. The water had jumped up about 15*. That's way beyond what I expected, especially it not being left closed, but being opened and closed all week. Are they expensive? Yes and no. Yes, they're a lot more than Coleman, or Igloo etc. But performance is light-years ahead. As far as build quality comparison, again, no comparison. The Yeti is build like a tank, and every tolerance is tight and functional. So in the long run, they're I don't think they're expensive at all. They're a great value and I can believe, Bear proof, and ranch trucks bed bouncing proof. You'll make up the cost difference in the cost of ice you'll recoup! FYI, I had no idea, but Yeti recommends using rock salt as an alternative to keeping ice even colder. Or dry ice, although I'd be afraid I'd stick my hand in there! Other than being careful where you dump salty water when done, I think the extreme cold, slightly slushy beer thing might be worth a shot! I'm a believer!! ... show more

  • Ice for 60 hours, even with temps at 110F - wow.
Color: A2 Desert Tan
I deep froze some ice "slabs" using a 9"x13" baking dish and also a bread pan, this gave me a 2"+ thick layer of -20F ice at the bottom. I then threw in a bunch of drinks and food from the fridge, which had all been chilled, but not frozen. I then forgot to fill in the remaining gaps with ice, so that was a missed opportunity - next time! We went camping in a crazy heat wave, the other three families we were going with bailed when they saw the weather forecast, daytime temperatures in Yosemite managed to hit over 110F each day, and night time temperature, even by 11pm was still 80F. The Yeti stayed in the NPS bear box at the campground in direct sunlight for much of the day - the metal bear box in the sunlight was so hot it would burn your skin by 10am! But the Yeti was amazing, we had ice for at least 60 hours, and it was still very cold water at 72hours. Had I tried this with my old cooler I doubt the ice would have made it even 24 hours. ... show more

  • Yeti 45 cooler
Color: A2 Desert Tan
We needed a cooler for Tailgating that would keep our food constantly cold and not leak! Yeti was the answer . The Desert tan color is really really nice. But more importantly is the quality and design.I tried it our by putting ice packs in and see how long they stayed cold. -2 days later they had just started to thaw! Looking forward to adding another piece. Definitely recommend this product to anyone in need of a great cooler. Bear in mind Yeti's are not cheap- but they are worth their value. ... show more

  • Ice cream doesn’t melt

I keep my Yeti in the trunk of my car (YES, it fits there.) for trips to the grocery store 35 miles away. Ice cream stays frozen along with frozen veggies. Wonderful!

  • Really Works
Color: A2 Desert Tan
I use the reusable blue ice blocks in my coolers. with a typical cooler the blue ice would last for 1-2 days before I had to swap them out. Now they will go for 4 days easily and could probably take it to 5 days. Seems to be well-built and sturdy. 5 stars for the functionality and effectiveness, less one star for the high price. If you don't use a cooler everyday this one is probably is not worth the money. ... show more
