I've seen these somewhere before. At those prices, they better last a lifetime. My lifetime.

90% of my whitewater rafting friends have switched to them, I know they had cold beer on the last day of a recent 21 day Grand Canyon trip. I'm still using the white marine Igloos and have been pretty happy with them but a Yeti cooler is on my must have list.
If you freeze your cooler it will hold ice much longer, put it in a chest freezer overnight and your ice will last considerably longer. foil backed bubble wrap also helps too, cut a piece to fit in the cooler and keep it over your ice and food, it will insulate the food from the warm air in the cooler.

I fill the dead space of the cooler with crumpled up grocery bags, and use the grocery bags as trash bags...

(but not putting the trash in the cooler)

True, you can buy a garage full of Wal-Mart coolers for the price of one of these. Then again, those are "throwaway" coolers, you don't cry if you lose one tubing down the river.

edit: well, you cry about the lost beer, not the cooler.

They have a 3yr warranty and they're based out of Austin. That means I can drive down and rattle some heads if they get silly about a warranty call.

They do also offer a full line of replacement parts and chocks,tie downs and even custom fit aluminum brackets to hold 'em in place on boats. They do cost but they do look like will last quite a long time.
