Yeti products are ridiculously expensive and worth every dollar I've found. As others mentioned, they cups of all sizes keep cold cold and hot almost hotter. I've had their larger tumbler for years and it's as good as the day it was purchased. I've been known to use the same ice for two days.
As for the coolers, I picked up a large 105qt several years back, had it loaded with ice, fresh caught halibut and beer. It was gone from camp the next morning. At least we recovered the halibut and it was still good! The morons couldn't make it far due to the weight, so they turned it over on the ground. All of the halibut was nicely chilled under the ice and cold beer cans on the cold wet grass. The cooler is still missing - maybe it can be used as a casket for one of the assclowns that took it.
You could say I'm kind of a Yeti fan. We have four in the house. I've got a now discontinued 16qt for my work lunch cooler. We also have a 20qt and one of the first soft sided one. That soft sided cooler is our travel cooler - it goes to Hawaii as a carry on (fits overhead) and then serves chill duty once there. Keeps all the drinks cold at the beach, by the hot tub and during the hot daytime car travels - don't worry about buying that fresh fish to take back to the room later as it stays cold all day. Usually by about day 3, it's time to refresh the ice.
Last fall I brought another 115qt along on a moose trip. The frozen foods were packed in the bottom and the "just keep cold" products kept on top. The cooler sat out in the daylight all week and was opened/closed about 20 times a day. By day eight, some of the "just keep cold" actually started to freeze. That's all the proof I needed.
