I've had both for the past 2 years. RTIC zipper has broken. Yeti still going strong. I'll buy RTIC again, but I won't expect it to last as long.
So you are essentially paying yetis price and the zipper will fail again...
I had thr same issue with rtic. Got rid of it
Well put video, guys 👌🏼 Very thorough and helpful
Excellent test, one of the better experiments with well thought out procedures and controls
Damn wtf I think I went to school with you! Bouta buy the yeti thanks for the recommendation 😂😂
Oh for real?! Which one of us did you go to school with?😂
@@ValtierraBros Bryan, we did the longboard project together lmao
Oh nice! It’s good to hear from you, I hope you’re doing well!
had an artic like the one in the video and it was good, until the rubber around the zipper started to go and jammed up the zipper due to rips and breaks. Then after a month or so of fiddling with it due to those issues the zipper handle broke off and made it basically useless. Lasted about a year and change, so kinda bummed i went with another brand.
I had an rtic cause I thought was more bang for the buck. Til a year into it zipper went to crap even after using the lubricant it came with. Went to Yeti a couple years ago and it hasn’t showed much wear if any at all.
The ice test was what sold me. If yeti wants double the price, then their coolers should have double the ice retention. Besides, aren’t they made in china as wel?
the ice remaining test is slightly flawed, but otherwise a pheromonal comparison. since there is more space inside the RTIC vs Yeti, there is more air to cool down in it as well, so right away we knew the RTIC would have less ice at the end of the test. since the numbers are so similar, we can safely say that they both retain ice at equal levels. the difference of 44 grams of ice is the result of the RTIC having to cool are larger volume.
Great observation! I guess next time, we should add amounts of ice proportional to the size of the container, not necessarily equal amounts if ice. Great catch, thanks for the comment!
Maybe i missed it but what size yeti is that?
I love your review! I have a wonderful product, a very cost-effective soft cooler, that I would like to give to you for a professional review. Are you in the United States? How can I contact you?
I have a Rtic soft cooler and a Yeti. The Rtic leaks… I have a Rtic hard-shell cooler. It’s legit. I just bought a Yeti Roadie cooler.
I think these tests need to be done out side in the heat that way you can see where it counts and what does a better job stopping the heat
I have both and they keep the ice the same amount of time for me.
RTIC did well. Would do better if you filled up the space. I know you were just keeping the testing equal. The space actually uses ice to keep it cool as well. So just filling it up with ice would take more ice but will improve the test results for RTIC.
Yeah, we realized afterwards that we actually put the RTIC in a slight disadvantage by leaving all that empty space in there. We'll definitely remember that for the next test we do in the future!

Where do you guys live? I would live a review of them in outside weather?!!
Oregon, good idea we might incorporate that into our future videos!
@@ValtierraBrosplease do that asap please lol. I need that review cuz I work outside in this heat
I think the yeti cooler is $250 if the one you’re reviewing is the 12 can.
We’re reviewing the Yeti Hopper 8. It fits 11 cans without ice. I think you’re thinking about the Yeti Hopper 12 which fits 24 cans with no ice and costs $250. Yeti’s naming scheme is confusing 😰🤦🏽♂️
@@ValtierraBrosyea the yeti 12 is the one that's $250
the RTIC zipper will fell if you don't keep the silicon on the zipper and you can't repair or replace it.
🎉🎉get a small hard cooler rtic more Bang for your buck😊😊
The rtic zipper will fail in 2 years and they will tell you tough luck. Search on the Internet and you will see tons of complaints.
Lots of complaints too on the Yeti zippers. The Yeti soft cooler warranty is 3 years shorter than their hard cooler warranty of 5.
Eeh brooooo cálmate échate un baño chino
should of put them outside in the sun.
*should’ve/should have
The Yeti cooler says I’m Gucci wealthy with more money than brains…
I don't know about that, but I try to stick with the "Buy once, Cry once" philosophy. To each his own.
@@tomkelly4516 ,… Gucci buyers who want to identify with their brand support their ridiculously stupid profit margins. Most all are urban Tesla weekend wanabees, not hard users. They just buy the brand association. Sorry if that hits home.
😅 yeti wins end of story
Tried several rtic soft coolers total let down. Literally shit bed after 3 hours w cooler shocks and in air conditioned house for work. Hard pass. Also yeti zippers are nightmare # 1 cause of their bad reviews. Gave up went to 20q kong hard cooler. No comparison
Yeah, I’m right there with you on the zippers. Way too difficult to open and close! Might have to take a look at those Kong coolers 👀
@@ValtierraBros US made by experts in commercial refrigeration.
Nothing wrong with Kong, but comparing their hard cooler to a soft cooler from Yeti or Rtic is unfair. Of course, it will be better. A more fair comparison would be Kong vs their hard coolers. Price wise they are priced very similar to Yeti.
Here’s how I’m deciding:
When Joe Biden is president, you can only afford rtic.
When Trump returns people will splurge again
Facts !
Well...looks like you're going to brown bag it. You didn't count on that third option😂🤣
