    Pelican coolers

    Anybody use one? How do they hold up to other high end coolers (yeti etc)

    Thanks

    Fantastic! I’ve got the 65 in Tan. Had it for years. There was a place in Ontario that sold them cheaper than anywhere else with free shopping. I’ll try to find it.
    When in doubt, just pin it.

    I don't own one but have more than a few friends who swear by them. From the little research Ive done they apparently hold up better than similar yeti sizes and are often slightly cheaper. Have occasionly seen them on sale for a decent price on altitude sports, or thelasthunt.com

    Somewhat bear-proof too.

    I went with the budget option: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lifetime-...0820/850043843
    I'll let you know how it goes.


    Also saw there is the following coupon code for these coolers: https://www.rticcoolers.com/
    Code: 'FB25' for 25% off


    Just to confuse things

    All roto-molded coolers are a step up from the injection molded classics. They are thicker plastic and thicker layer of insulation. None of these cooler brands are using proprietary technology, it's just a beefier design than the traditional picnic cooler. Take your pick based on colour or design...

    Now that folks have seen how much coin Yeti is pulling in, the start-up cooler companies are coming out of the woodwork with contracts with off-shore manufacturers. Orca, Bison, Engel, Yeti, Rtic, Orion, Cabelas, Frostbite, Canyon, Grizzly, Icey-Tek, Siberian, ....

    The Walmart Ozark Trail insulated cup is exactly the same as the Yeti, $10 vs $45... same cup, same off-shore factory. It's all marketing!
