not sure if this qualifies as a Bonzo’s Bargain so I posted here…if I posted this in the incorrect forum then I’ll start another thread apologizing for my shortcomings…
I preordered one in green, but they sent out a email stating that demand for the white and tan were overwhelming, so they were only going to produce those two for now. Last I heard, the other colors were going into production around the end of the year.
Not really anything to be familiar with yet, as they haven’t been delivered to customers yet.
I got in on the preorder, should have mine by October (or so they say).
I want one but I couldn’t bring myself to pay for something in full that has never been produced. Let us know how it turns out.
They have been producing them, just have not released them to customers yet. If you are down in texas where they have their facility, you can actually stop by and look at them.
A few years back (maybe 20) I was in charge of purchasing some roto molded stuff for the Army. Trust me, Yeti is WAY overpriced.

Seems like I read somewhere that Yeti coolers were a lot cheaper when they first came out, but were not selling. Someone came up with the idea to jack the price up, they became a status symbol and sold like hotcakes…
I’m in on the preorder as well. I am awaiting a 45qt. They have stated multiple times throughout the process that you may cancel your order and receive a full refund at anytime up until you receive a shipping notification.
It’s already been pointed out but that looks freakin identical to my yeti. I’ve had mine for 6-7 years so I don’t know if the newer ones look any different. I think my wife bought mine for $280 back then as a gift. I would not spend $400 on one myself, but $200 I would say is worth it just for longevity. You could go through 3 igloos in 10 years and that rtic would be pretty much the same as when you bought it.
