Is the yeti even worth it? 200 for a small cooler seems fucking insane but I hear they are good..like really good. Issue is I feel they are more of a lifestyle cooler and not something practical.

Why buy a yeti explain how much better it is than a $10 cooler that does the same thing.

this isn't true. Super budget stuff tends to be crap. I'm looking for something right in the middle but good quality

If 200$ is the middle then idk man. Cheapo cooler holds ice for 3 days in the summer here. If you need to longer not sure how to help.

200 is expensive meaning I want cheaper but I also need quality. 3 days isn't good from a pre chilled cooler.

What is a "lifestyle cooler?" If you're the kind of shitter that uses words like this, Yeti will be perfect for you.

theyre good coolers but are pricey. I've owned the yeti bag for a few years and recently picked up a rtic cooler. the rtic was half the cost and holds ice for days just like my yeti.

Yeti is more about selling T-shirts to people who camp once a year than it is at making out gear. Get the Walmart special knock off for 40 bucks 80% as good for less than a quarter of the price.

I own a Tundr 45 through a pro deal. The thing is very heavy but well constructed. I use it at the cabin or beach to keep beers cold but beyond that it’s more of hinderence due to its weight. By no means is it an /out/ cooler aside from being Bear proof but you’d be an idiot to carry this thing any meaningful distance

RTIC are good coolers at half the price.

Buddy of mine has an expensive cooler (i forget the brand but it is similar to a yeti cooler ) and it didnt actually hold ice but the inside was cold as ice for a couple days and it was just a little guy. It was also used for beer so opened pretty often, which could be why the ice was gone

Its like everything else though if you feel like spending that much to have stuff stay cold for an extra couple days, then get one. For me it isnt

I've used a few YETIs, and a Pelican. They are a lot better than normal coolers (especially if precooled) but I don't think they are worth it over the coleman xtreme and xtreme marine series.

I only use coolers for outdoor activities, not actual camping.

This, if you want to pay the price, Pelican beats yeti, but the Coleman xtreme are where it’s at

I have a RTIC 20 and my buddy has a Yeti 20. Both are white. We tested them each with a 10lb bag of ice inside the house next to each other. The RTIC lasted longer, it was half the price, and it has more cubic space inside. For the price of one Yeti I can get two RTIC's that will outperform. Yeti is a meme. The purpose of a cooler is to keep your things cool. It makes sense to buy the RTIC because it keeps stuff the coldest.

I don't know about rtics or pelicans or w.e but my yeti really surprises me sometimes. I recently went on a long trip and put frozen meat in my yeti expecting it to thaw slowly by the time we reach our destination. Hours later still frozen. 2 days later still frozen...fuck we had to take them and put them in a smaller cooler for them to un thaw. 5 days later and the temperature was still optimal for keeping food fresh. My cheapo cooler was hot tub temps by then.

In other words is a 300 plus dollar cooler worth it? Maybe. Do you camp ? Does your cabin have a fridge? If no they yeti is the way to go. Does it last as long as a conventional cooler? IDK my cheapo one is from the 90s but obviously the temperature drops alot because yetis and the similar brands really are for longer term stuff.

This, downside is the handles and fitting may break and they don't have replacement parts. Having said that, someone with half a brain could easily fabricate it or make do. A third of the cost of a yeti with the same insulation. They also go on rollback every once and a while.
