Why Are YETI Coolers SO Popular?

We all know YETI coolers are durable and high-quality, but how exactly did these coolers become THE brand for anyone who wants to appear rugged, outdoorsy, and generally hardcore?

The stupid thing with vacuums is that companies used to make them quieter, but people didn't think they worked. So vacuum companies started making them louder, because consumers thought more noise meant better suction and cleaning. Psychology...

[@SilverSamurai12]

Get a Numatic Henry or Charles. MUCH quieter!

[@Joe-vm6ds]

Reminds me of the fake engine noise piped into most modern cars

[@REMY.C.]

And people when buying vacuums look only for that 7500W which is not a synonym of the succion performance but hey, the more watts the better.

We have an old metal Coleman cooler. Light aluminum works like a charm. Pro tip is to freeze empty milk jugs full of water before the trip. As they thaw they keep the cooler cold and once they’re half thawed it’s ice cold drinking water. Plus no water sloshing around all your food.

[@franticjack]

That's actually a great idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@newttella1043]

@@figsaregood You mean why use a perfectly good nearly free, re-used milk jug when you can buy an expensive Yeti jug?

I've bought bottled water and frozen it in advance of camping trips. Much more manageable size than a gallon jug.

I’ve owned a small yeti cooler since 2017, I won it in a raffle. My family is an outdoorsy family and it’s actually pretty great. It’s hella sturdy, and I don’t feel a need to purchase another one.

Yeti solved a problem people didn't know they had. And that was how do you keep ice cold for 5 days. Usually not very beneficial considering ice is everywhere and cheap. However during a power outage situation (which sounds like the US is gonna be hit with a lot of this summer) keeping ice for multiple day is critical for saving your food

[@ParadiseConcrete]

Ice CAN be cheap but gas stations sell them overpriced. If you go to those self serve ice machines you can get a 16lbs bag for $2 where the gas station will sell you an 8 or 10lbs bag for $2.75 or more

[@ParadiseConcrete]

@Hardware John I used to do that for work. I had a small cooler where I would keep just a few cans of drinks and I would just empty out the entire ice tray in it

[@rylansoto8622]

i think yetti has branded itself well in the outdoors community, but through advertising they landed in the family home that enjoys the beach with wealthy families, and they are just sturdier/stronger then other coolers that break often. one yetti i have we found floating 10 miles offshore with water bottles on the inside, still works great

You Betcha nailed it in his video by joking about each product being a gift. In my area Yeti products feel like the default gift when you don’t know what to get someone. Friend’s birthday? $30-$80 can get them some nice drinkware. Don’t know what to buy dad? Chip in with your siblings and get him the last cooler he’ll ever need. No one will turn anything Yeti down so a ton get given as gifts. If you don’t know what to get someone, giving them something from a premium brand anyone can find a use for is less risky than getting something gimmicky.

[@Tracker5111]

Until next year... then... then its going to get tougher to choose! : )

Do I need a bear proof container? No. Am I still going to add a Yeti cooler to my wedding registry to see if someone will buy it for us? Yes.

[@michaelturner8424]

If you live where it's really hot, the Yeti is super hard to open. The pressure difference is actually pretty difficult to overcome without wedging something in there to pry it open. Pelican coolers fixed that issue with better clamps. Even Cabellas have a pressure release button

[@willbutler2639]

Push that little spout on the bottom to let some water out and let some air into the cooler to release the pressure

[@nonamenoname1133]

One of the things I picked up from living in a food desert was to put my cooler in the trunk. Toss the groceries in and worry not how bad the traffic is on the way back. Costco? No problem. Cooler gets used way more often that way. Don't even think about ice, but it is also an option.

[@laddibugg]

Yup! In the summer I just keep my cooler in the back. My family makes fun of me because I have a small crossover and it takes up most of my trunk but guess who doesn't have to rush home after shopping 🙋🏿

Kong is another great made in America cooler. I was looking to invest in a cooler for camping and went with Kong because they're made in America, have solid handles which make it a lot easier to carry when full, and the lid latches are (in my opinion) significantly easier to operate. The only stickers on it are from the places we camp or visit while camping. We've had it for about 2 years now and I'm still a huge fan.

[@Terjecs]

why does it matter if its made in america tho. doesnt rlly suddenly become much better

Absolutely. We dry camp and was looking into yeti. Decided to get a cooler that could plug into a 12v plug in the bed of the truck that has an actual compressor. Actually has saved us money not having to buy ic and no soggy food!

Another interesting brand in this space is Zojirushi, they make a wide variety of vacuum flasks, including very neat sets for workplace lunches (they are Japanese after all), and electric cooking machines, such as hot water dispensers, bread makers, and rice cookers, which are far faster and more energy efficient than using natural gas for cooking even when using 110V mains (see the recent Technology Connections video), and, obviously, they can use renewable energy to cook food with zero emissions.

I own 4 yeti coolers, I couldn’t tell you how many cups, wine glasses, and own 2 bags, a backpack etc. We are yeti fans, I fish offshore in Florida, spend weeks in the mountains in Colorado hunting elk.

[@yaniel87]

Another good reason and non-traditional use for Yeti or other similar coolers is the reason I have one: Hurricane season in Florida. When a storm is looming and we know we'll be without power for a few days or weeks, it's nice to know you can keep important things like breast milk and food on ice for nearly a week at a time without any power. I bought my Yeti the day before Irma hit Miami, and while I was lucky and didn't lose power, my family was able to use it for the 2 weeks they were without power.

[@ChedWick05]

Wow that was some crazy timing on explaining rotomolding. I was literally, and I mean that in the actual dictionary definition not the for emphasis meaning, typing "cooler" into costco's search as I started this video.

I’ve been thinking about getting a high-end cooler for a while, but it has more to do with disaster preparedness. I live in Texas, we can’t really rely on our electrical grid here. In 2021 during Snowpocalypse, or some people called it Snow-vid, I was able to maintain the freshness of my perishable food by just putting it outside on the balcony. This summer there was a possibility of the grid going down again, and I wasn’t going to have that luxury of a cold balcony. Also I am very interested in other companies that make similarly rugged and efficient coolers and more affordable price.

[@ttopero]

We just passed Father’s Day, & I saw so many tweets about fathers getting asked what they wanted for their special day. For those that can afford it & would use it, a comparable cooler seems like a sensible gift that has longevity & generational transference opportunities. It could make sense as a business expense for transporting perishable items. I’ve had a basic 30 gallon unit for over 20 years that rarely gets used without car ownership. Would I accept one as a gift, sure. But I’d do better with an efficient freezer🙂

A Yeti or similar level of quality cooler is almost a must for Texans. Hosting a party? Drinks in the Yeti. Hunting? Food and drinks in the Yeti, game in the Yeti on the way home. Fishing? Keeps the fish fresh all day and keeps your drinks cold so you don’t overheat in the 115° sun. It’s a buy once cry once purchase that’s almost a must for Texans at least.

The thing about these overkill outdoor brands that go fashion viral is that their target demographic changes dramatically.

[@thecrimsonfire4921]

My one concern with quality products from a business perspective is that each customer only buys it once ideally. So often it’s hard to get the funds you need to compete with shitty brands. I think an appropriate similar to the nespresso but not shitty will be the go to moving forward. Subscriptions and stuff like that can be a good thing if it supports ethical quality brands.

[@Slam-]

How is a quality lasting product a concern? Unless you're invested in Yeti, this just sounds silly.

[@thecrimsonfire4921]

@@Slam- oh you’ve misunderstood. My bad. I was more so referring to how can quality brands stay afloat. You can market on quality and ethics, but with a product that really does last you slowly run out of customers. I’m just interested in developing ways to alleviate that so quality brands can stay competitive and expand to more of the market. The ways I’ve noticed so far have been subscription models, nespresso models, large range of products backed by the quality of your main stays (such as Samsung with its TVs that they make very little on) or by just charging exorbitant amounts to you get enough money for the product to make up for never selling again. In real life business terms this is important. Finding a sustainable way to make sustainable businesses succeed will make them more attractive for investment and allow an alternative to shit quality stuff
