I have all 4 sizes of the RTIC soft sides and a 26 hardside. I use the soft sides all the time. You can buy all 4 of the RTIC's now for the price of a Yeti! I also have one of RTIC's gun cases and several can coolers. All great products!

Never paid much attention to coolers until buying the RTIC (waiting on it to arrive). Yesterday made a burn and turn trip to the tune of 825 miles to pick up the jon boat I purchased in Indiana. Had a small hard cooler with me. Inside was 4 chilled sodas and a cold lunch. Cooler was inside the Expedition with the AC running and for the most part it was in the shade all day. Packed the cooler at 5:30 am, filled it to the top with ice. By 7:30 PM the ice was all melted.
This morning the cooler went into the garbage. Guess we do get what we pay for.

Yep, that's what I put on the zipper for a pull tab.

The cooler I just received came with a large "T" handle attached to the zipper. It was not that difficult to unzip or zip. But adding some of the enclosed lube made it even easier. It is still a 2 handed proposition, you aren't going to reach into the back seat while you are driving and open it up unless its already unzipped.

I am IMPRESSED. Yesterday we did an all day road trip. Packed the cooler with a ice pack and 3 trays of ice cubes, 4 - 16 ounce bottles of soda and 2 sandwiches. Cooler sat in the back of the Expedition and during the day outside temps got as hot as 97.
After 12 hours on the road we made it home and there was not a drop of water in the cooler. All the ice remained frozen and even the one remaining soda had ice in the bottle. Worth every penny, and glad I did not buy the smallest size.

I don’t have experience with the soft sided coolers but my son and I just got back from elk hunting in Wyoming. We put half the meat in a hard sided Yeti and the other half in an identical Rtic. When we got home the most of the ice had melted in the Rtic (water was still quite cold) but the ice in the Yeti looked the same as when we packed it. Both coolers were in open pickup box. Temp was about 75. If I was younger I would buy a Yeti.

I agree with the previous poster about Yeti. I have a slush fund where I throw my loose change or bonus cash; I use that money for luxuries. Over the years I’ve managed to get a pretty good collection of Yeti products. I’ve never been disappointed. My hunting buddies made fun of me for wasting money... then the next year they all showed up to camp with Yeti coolers.
