re: Soft Cooler

Only reason I don't have any Ozark Trails coolers is because my girl gave me the RTIC 20 and the RTIC 40 soft coolers for back to back birthdays, and I found a good deal online last year for a no name brand cooler for a quarter of the price of the YETI, but they didn't offer any colors...

Their multitools, flip flops, and tents are very well made.
Their flashlights and hatchet are also awesome value as well.

And I will forever remember a stereotypical Louisiana duck hunter standing in front of me at the pickup and quietly saying.

I have this one and hate it
So, I bought this one and it keeps ice really well.

Glad I made a lasting impression

My entire goal was to not make an impression on anyone.
Thankfully, a fat guy in a Magellan fishing shirt kind of blended in just fine.

I only have experience with my RTIC and it's been good to me. I had it in my car all day yesterday parked in the Louisiana heat and my ice packs were only 20% melted when I took it out of the car around 5:30. I was parked in a parking garage so no direct sun but still pretty good for a soft cooler IMO.

I wasnt too concerned. Multiple guys on this board know who I am. Although, I've been able to keep that to a minimum.

My yetie bag doubles as carry on luggage. I’ve used it to carry boudin sasauge and pheasant breast. It was clutch on bring home our pheasant Breast from ND with no hassle.. just froze the Breast the night before and threw them in the bag no need for ice still frozen when got home. I guess you can do that with other bags but the way the original yeti bag is shaped it fits perfect in an overhead compartments of an airplane..
Eta you will probably get stopped by tsa it happened to me three out of four times but they laughed when they saw it was boudin and sent me on my way

I've probably met 2-300 members off of here in a work capacity.
Given the messed up shite I say on here, I used my real name

Speaking of those pigment challenged products, I gave mine a good test this week. Saturday night, around 8 PM,I threw two frozen gallon jugs of water in there, along with an old bag of ice that had frozen solid in the bottom of my chest freezer. Sunday morning, around 10, I removed all of that, put it back in my freezer, and filled it up with beer that had been in my mini fridge. I had a 24 pack of coors light, and 18 Ultras for my wife. Then any space that was left I put in some Bud Light, Envie, and other stuff still in the fridge, until it was full. I was thinking it would definitely stay cold enough on our 4-5 hour drive. I stocked the mini fridge at the resort once we got checked in, maybe around 5 PM. They were still icy cold at that point. I left about 2/3 of them in the cooler, never adding any ice. Only opened it the one time to load the fridge up. 2 full days later I went to restock the fridge, and the mountains were still blue. Not ice cold but plenty cold enough to drink.

My daughter just gave me a yeti hopper 30 for a 50fh birthday present. Very limited trunk space in my 2dr JK so I really needed a soft cooler and this seems like it will be perfect size wise. What ice packs are you cooler baws using? Looking at the Engel 20f on and the freezer shock bags on Amazon. They seem to consistently be the highest rated.

AO cooler gets the nod for me.
Price, quality is there - it will leak from the top - but I freeze a water bottle or Gatorade - put the on the bottom then cold beer / drinks on the top - perfect every time.

Had an RTIC since 2016. Took care of it, applied the zipper grease/lube monthly, worked well. Last couple of months the zipper started coming off track. Last week almost the entire zipper came off track. After research this is a common problem that occurs after 2 years. Warranty expires after 1 year. Just bought a Tourit.
