YETI Tundra 35 Cooler

I needed to do an upgrade from my Roadie 20 and get the Tundra 35, I was gonna get the 45 but it would be too heavy to lift the 45 up onto my rooftop rack so I gor the 35 and its much lighter to lift up onto the roof rack. It has the same qualities as my Roadie 20 but just larger, the rope carrying handles are ok but not my personal favorite, the main thing is the cooler keeps the ice longer.

You can never go wrong with a Yeti. This purchase was fast, easy, and had a very quick delivery.

I always heard Yetis are amazing but have now learned it doesn’t keep ice frozen any longer than my $40 cooler. It’s also much heavier than I expected when empty. Knowing me, I’ll lose the drain plug eventually since it’s not attached in any way. Sorry to say, I’m disappointed enough to return it. I do like the non-skid pads on the bottom and the rope handles but not $275 worth. Sorry Yeti… I was excited to finally bring you into my life but I’m afraid our relationship isn’t going to work out. Boo-hoo.

Keeps items very cold over the long haul

I have several Yeti coolers of all sizes. They all stay secure and cold for several days even in direct sunshine out on the lake. But this one seems to be eating my ice. It has taken a fresh bag of ice daily because it melts too fast. The Yeti I replaced with this one takes a bag every 3-4 days in the same climate. Maybe this one is defective or maybe this size of cooler just doesn’t stay cold. Either way I never thot I would give any of my Yeti’s anything other than a 5 star rating. But this one hasn’t impressed me at all and I will going back to my old one.

I made and stored meals for a hotel convention in this and didnt have to change the ice packs out for the entire 5 days. I wish I wouldve bought maybe one size up because some of my containers didnt fit well. I stored 2 large ice packs, 3 qt containers, 4 pint containers, and multiple 1/2 cup containers and Ziploc bags.

It is our 6th yeti we have tried others during this time period but,,,,,,,,, Yeti is still the better of our purchases.. Expensive but does as expected and more.

Super heavy duty and rugged. But what else would you expect from YETI

Keeps things cold for a long time

The size is perfect for soccer games and to keep in the car. The charcoal colors is very nice as well.
