Canyon Coolers?

Never heard of them, was getting ready to by a yeti. Based on the testimonials I'm gonna try one of these out

Alot more size for the money, not poor...just not stupid

Why waste money if you don't have to?

I noticed on their Facebook page that they have a Coupon Code "Keeper" for free shipping. May want to call em up and see if you can add it!

Don't know if this company will be the one. But it's inevitable that someone starts marketing a cooler that's as good as a Yeti, for half the price, and will still make a huge profit.

It's not a Yeti

Agreed.

The high end cooler market has a lot more players than most people realize, with more popping up every month seemingly.

Yeti
Engel
K2
Grizzly
Canyon
Brute
Pelican
Igloo Yukon
Moeller

They all are pretty similar with roto-molded plastic shells and 2-3" industrial foam insulation. (Except for the Yukon, I believe which is not roto-molded) Looking at the components, every single one of these companies is making a killing with these coolers selling for the prices they are at. Hopefully with more players and more competition, the prices will be driven down.

Indeed. I hear those Grizzlies in Alabama are pretty out of control.

Picked up a 60qt K2 for about $100 less than a 65qt yeti and it is about the same price of a 35at yeti i think..... I'll will be honest, it is no where near as "finished" as the yeti. But, it is as stout as a yeti. I like the latches on the K2 as well with the rope handles.

I went and looked at them at Superior Bait & Tackle, and that was my first thought as well. The rough and more square edges didn't look nearly as good as the finish of the Yeti sitting next to it.

In pictures, the Canyon coolers look clean but you never really know until you get a good look in person. Same with the Brute model someone mentioned earlier- maybe he can chime in again and post some pics of the workmanship.
