Tundra Coolers
Meet the original YETI the Tundra. This was our baby. Where it all started. Where we took our frustrations with cheap coolers and over-engineered the hell out of them. We ended up creating a whole new category of coolers with legendary toughness and famed ice retention. And now we make the rugged, all-purpose Tundra in enough sizes to fit any outdoor adventure. There’s a good bit of its DNA in all the other gear we make too, in the form of patented and envied innovations. We’re proud to see the Tundra has grown up to be the father of all coolers.

great ice chest. I bought this ice chest because I take rafting trips where I put the raft in the river and then take it out a week later. I take off road trips in my Jeep where I may be in the boonies for 4 or 5 days. I have a brand X ice chest that if I am really careful will keep my food for 3 days. After that is canned food and warm soda. But, it was a leap for me to spend this kind of money on an ice chest. I took the leap. I then left for a 4 day trip around the eastern Oregon desert. Friday morning I put…
Best on the Market Okay, do you really NEED a $300 cooler? I mean really? I guess you could also ask the question does anyone really NEED a Mercedes when a Volkswagen will still get you from point A to point B. If you are buying a chainsaw do you really NEED a Stil, or will a Poulan do just as well? I recently put 20 pounds of ice in my Tundra 45 for a picnic. 4 days later there was still ice in the cooler and I don’t just mean a few cubes floating around in a bunch of water. This thing was still about one…
Broke within 30 minutes on maiden voyage I just returned from a deployment and got to set my Yeti 45 on her maiden voyage at the NASCAR race at PIR. I spent a good amount of time fancying her up with patches and stickers from the recent deployment. It took about a half an hour before the latch broke. Piece of crap with $300 wasted and about an hour worth of time making her pretty. Never buying a Yeti again.
