re: I don't understand the obsession with the Yeti ice chest.

I have a 65 quart yetti. It was given to me. It is heavy and stays in the back of my truck year round with ice in it maybe 10 weeks per year.
Sumbitch is heavy.I mean lumbar damaging heavy. If it gets taken, I will survive. I don't fly the yetti patch though, so take it easy on me.

First off.
I own 1 and like it.
Sorry you don't want me to do what I want with my fricking money
Second.
Anyone who says it's not needed. Has never needed a yeti. Offshore they are a must

Wanna keep ice long term, precool, add dry ice, don't open it often. Practice that and the differences in coolers are negligible.
Wow!
No kidding? So you just don't open it?
Any ice chest works well if you do that...
Also, precooling helps, too.

You're going to come on here and tout the exceptional craftsmanship of something you bought at the Wally, Wally, Wally, Wally World? Was it purchased with the EBT card? Guys just look at the wall thickness of the chests. 2" of foam has a higher R value than 1" of foam. Check out the lids. And the weight is from a dense foam. If you get away for any length of time, borrow one if you don't have one. "Cool" food after a few days will mean TP shortage for your crew.
Yes, yes he is.

Thinking about buying one of these
LINK
I bought one back in April. First, they are true to size. . . you buy a 50qt, you're getting 50qt volume. (whereas a Yeti is not true to size- their 65qt is slightly bigger than the Brute 50, but over $100 more expensive)
Quality, IMO, is as good as the YETIs- has every feature the yeti's have, but then add better latches, a ruler on top, dual drain plugs, and a cheaper price tag. They also have a wheeled cart that will plug into the bottom in the works, along with a few other accessories (divider, basket, etc.)

It's science man.
Put ice in yeti full of hot air, yeti don't work as good
Put ice in yeti full of cold air, yeti work good

Even my best trolling efforts dont get 8 pages... Perhaps I'm trying too hard?

Do some of you truly precool your ice chest before a hunting or fishing trip? I ain't buying it. That is the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard. I am sure it works but I find it very hard to believe that any of you actually do this. I grab my ice chest, throw in some ice, and hit the road to go and kill something with the last thought in my mind being precooling my ice chest.
