YETI Tundra 65 Cooler

I honestly bought this cooler because of the great reviews. I figured I would spend the money because I was going to Disneys Wilderness Campground and did not want to keep refilling a regular cooler with ice. I was extremely disappointed on how quickly my ice was melting. I honestly did not notice any difference on ice retention then my regular $50 Igloo cooler. On a positive note the coolers design is nice and it appears to be strong. I dont know if my cooler is by any chance defective because the reviews cant be that great and my experience be that bad. The ice only lasted 2 days and we barely opened the cooler because we spent most of the day in the Disney parks

Pricey IMHO but keeps ice cold will usually take about 4-5 days for ice to melt in room like temperatures. Expect less 2 or 3 days when outside in heat and sun. Overall good sturdy and durable product. I will give it 4 out of 5 stars because of price. Also check out Pelican and Icey Tek coolers, cheaper and also good products.

Way more hyped up then it is. Its not Worth the money. my older regular ice chest work almost as well and they are afraction of the cost. The durability is excellent and it is made very very well, but is not much better at keeping things cooler than your 29.95 icechest from a generic brand. Advice...its better to buy 5 regular ice chest over tour lifetime than to waste your money on one of these....you would still have a ton of money left over for other things.

It works great - we were out for 1 week and nothing spoiled but it is just a heavy piece of equipment. I am a 45 year old single woman and it takes a lot of strength to lift it.

Description said 65 qt and I got a 45

Great product. Quick shipping.

TOO heavy to lift, especially after you get your drinks stuffed in there. Didnt keep ice any better than the big cheap Coleman I have. Wish I wouldve kept the box so I could send it back. I cannot afford to just throw away $350.00! So poed!

There is a leadership problem at YETI (i.e. NYSE: YETI; YETI Holdings, Inc.). Specifically, the two attached pictures show: (a) the marketing representation of a white, YETI Tundra 65 cooler; and (b) the quality of the product you will actually receive. I’m not a plastics engineer, but it appears that the rotomold used to make this cooler are most likely WORN OUT (the mold is clearly leaking), or the mold was poorly made, or both poorly made AND worn out. You can see by the deformation of what was supposed to be the catch for the rubber latch that this defect IS NOT merely mold flashing that was improperly trimmed. The area of the cooler is MALFORMED. This malformation happens when the mold leaks. Don’t blame the poor slobs on the manufacturing floor - leadership decides what is acceptable and when to invest in properly functioning equipment. If this defect happened on the cooler I received (presumably after making its way past quality control), it’s happening on others. YETI may have been best-in-class before the founders sold out to private equity in 2012, and the subsequent Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) in 2018. Today, you need to ask yourself, “Am I purchasing a best-in-class product, or am I accepting POOR QUALITY at a PREMIUM PRICE to pay off an enormous debt that made a handful of people rich?” Hint: You ain’t purchasing a best-in-class product from YETI. Today if you purchase a YETI product, you’re just a low-level minion paying your hard-earned money for a poor quality product to meet NYSE:YETI’s quarterly earnings targets and related management bonuses. AND, this is not an indictment of YETI’s corporate structure, or ownership - there are literally THOUSANDS of companies that are publicly traded that maintain their brand promise, and sell products that are consistent with their marketing. YETI is NOT one of these companies. No one characterizes this lack of leadership better than YETI themselves. A quote from the January 2021 10-K sums it up: “Our indebtedness may limit our ability to invest in the ongoing needs of our business …” In the end I will keep this cooler not because it is a best-in-class product, but because it’s much more of a hassle to contact YETI and participate in a quality control process THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED LONG BEFORE THE PRODUCT REACHED THE CUSTOMER. And, I will keep this defective cooler because I have an immediate need for a cooler - planning on using on my boat this week. For everyone else, I’d encourage you to LOOK ELSEWHERE if you want to purchase the best cooler on the market.

Just the right size for his oat and game.

This cooler is well worth the money!! Couldnt be happier! The quality and ice retention is second to none. The money you spend on the cooler is quickly made up by the savings on ice purchases!
