I have used Igloo ice chests my enire life and have never had a problem with one. I understand that the Yeti has much more insulation and is bear proof but since I live in Louisiana I am not terribly worried about bears breaking into my cooler. I also have not had problems with ice melting away in my igloo even in the dead of summer while fishing all day in open water with no cover. Some ice does melt but not enough to make me want to spend 10 times as much money for an ice chest. I can buy 10 Igloo's for one big Yeti. Can you explain the justification for buying such a thing? Is it some sort of status symbol?



What if you go fishing 2 days or even 3? What if you spend a week at the hunting camp? Dove hunt in South Texas when it's 100 degrees?

Obviously most people think and igloo will work just as well. I, personally think that is what yeti was built for and I use the shite out of mine. The company has done a damn fine job at marketing their product. Good for them.

I have never seen grown men argue about ice chests as much as this board.

If you are able to buy one and will put it to good use good, great. If you see it as an outrageous notion to spend that much on an ice chest, fine.


Grow up guys, shite.

How about you buy another $2 or $3 bag of ice instead of an extra $200 on an ice chest...
