Thanks for the good review, Rich! I’m late in the game. For 2 persons, would you say 18 better size than 12, yet still easy to carry around?

Question will it hold 6 32oz bottles of Gatorade

Can the loop be cut off and then nail knot a leader to line connection ? I bought an early clear line and it did not hold a nail knot. The exterior would be cut through completely when tightening the knot and the slick interior core would not hold the nail knot. The manufacturer then told me no one should ever nail knot a fly line rather than admit their product defect.

Here in my country, the small Yeti Thin Ice is $100 😢 The Yeti Hopper 12 is $1000 😅

I think everyone understands that block ice lasts much longer than cube ice. So it's no surprise When you have block ice added to your ice cubes, you get better performance and longer ice retention. The real question is, does yeti ice in its block form perform any better than frozen water in its block form of the same equal size? That remains unknown

Great review but I only use the zipper lube every six months after a deep clean of the cooler. I haven’t experienced any issues with my zipper.

Hey, it’s JD Vance!

Came across this video doing research on buying this cooler...Is this JD Vance to Vice Presidential candidate and Senator???? the resemblance is uncanny

You CAN use them standalone like you said but yes, longer trips and higher temps, this is a supplement only. Still awesome. I love being able to take a 10L cooler and a couple bricks, precooled with cold drink and food for beach days. Just enough chilllll for a day.

Lol works not one bit better than ones I bought on temu and filled myself. But I forgot "it's better because it's yeti" with much of the yeti crowd. 😂😂😂

JD?

So much Spit.

Frozen water bottles my brih. They do the ame thing, weigh less, are free, and you can drink them also haha.

Dude looks like JD Vance. Does this mean a Trump Yeti is on the way 🦅

Great review! Thank you! I just purchased the Scott Session in a 9' 4 wt. for trout and small mouth. Can't wait to get it wet!

Awesome review, very helpful and now I’m on my way to purchase yeti ice. Thanks again for your advice on food safety

Would this work for an ac water cooler to keep the air cold?

“Really really big cooler” “65 75” Me over here with a 110 and 350. 💀

Yeti mugs and things of that nature are excellent, but their ice absolutely sucks,atleast the 1 lb.no good

Brilliant hoodie. Comfortable and warm when wet too. As I discovered today in the north of England. I have 2. I want more ! 😂

Just stumbled upon this vid! Great information!

Thx, just picked one up..king crab orange!

Will the Yeti ice be enough for a round of golf or would I still need to add ice?

seriously you got me there with that rating of 7.2 not 7 not 8 but 7.2.

Do you have to buy yeti lubricsnt or csn you use somethjng like vaseline?

I have two of each and still not a fan…. Recently I’ve been buying dry ice from Kroger and putting a double layer of cardboard in between the food and the ice. Works like a charm!!

great video thank you

Don’t waste your money worse ice brick I ever brought, 3 pack from k mart for $2.50 last 2 days the yeti doesn’t last until lunch time I don’t know how they even made it so bad , frozen water bottles are way better 😂😂😂

I have the roadie 24 And just bought some yeti ice! Thanks for the information brother!

I have a 64 oz swell. If it’s out of the sun and not to hot it works great. In the heat and or direct sunlight it’s about as good as the styrofoam cup. I bet the smaller one is much better. Also they are fragile. I dropped it and it got a good sized dent it in.

Double your ice life and only got 7.2?

Thank you for the review

I bought one of these and it is back in the box, basically as bad as Airflo in my opinion.....don't believe the hype

Great review, thanks!

I was so hoping it would be 7.3. But thanks

I know this is an old vid, but anyone who comes here should know that Ozark trail 2lb is $12 compared to $24, and the same performance. What you need to consider is the size and how it fits. I use a combo of Ozark Trail and Yeti ice for my 2 day picnic cooler.

I spend 170-200 nights per year on the road with work. Sometimes I will have a 2 day drive to smaller towns with very limited food options. I pre chill with cleaned out windshield washer fluid jugs the night before and then use the 4lb packs (2 for my 20, 4 for my 45) and no additional ice. Obviously all my food to transport is refridgerated and/or frozen before going in. Ive mounted a thermoworks fridge/freezer thermometer to both coolers to be able to monitor whats going on in there. Mid summer I have no issues getting my food where it needs to be safely. The ice packs may seem expensive but the fact that they fit so perfect and do not bulge when frozen is nice. Just like the coolers themselves I would recommend to those who use them very often.

I’ve ordered a yeti cooler sort of regret it as it too expensive all the extras are over priced These packs are expensive yet you still need ice well what’s the point ffs

Very informative video that answers many questions!

Great video your channel is awesome thank you!

I bought one of their first clear flats fly lines for the bonefish fishing in Hawaii and caught allot of large spooky bones for years and it worked well. It's tricky guessing the distance but your eyes get trained while casting. The clear fly line thing is well worth it when fishing spooky fish.

When I use the Yeti Ice as instructed, with the yeti ice at the bottom and the mound of ice cubes on top, I find that when I open it up a few hours later the ice has formed a giant ice burg and all of my cans and food are encased inside of this brick. Do you have a solution for this? Or am I just doing it wrong? I find it really annoying

Great review thanks.

Good vid, but IMO you cant beat frozen water bottles, cant tell you how many times i was so happy to have more water in my cooler, ice cold water if i needed it

This is one of the better reviews I've seen. Great job! I just went through the recall where my M30 was recalled and the Hopper 18 is what Yeti offered as the solution. I don't think I am going to be disappointed. Especially since I never liked the magnetic closure on the M30 anyway. It was very awkward to hold open while loading or unloading. Thank you for posting this review.

Great review Rich, I know it was 3 years ago but still very relevant. Thank you sir! Sold

I use them for my makeshift DIY swamp cooler. Sadly they only last for an hour. Or as a poor man's laptop cooler. They do freeze quite fast though. 😂

This review is spot on to my own experience with Yeti coolers and Yeti Ice. My family spends a lot of time at the beach in SC during the summer, as well as, outdoor entertaining at home. The coolers and ice bricks always hold up to the temperatures and frequent cooler openings.

7.2 lol

Save your money and freeze bottles of water, then you have cold water you can drink.
