YETI RAMBLER HALF GALLON JUG Key Lime

I have been using my yeti jug for a few weeks now and I’m impressed. I was going through countless bottles of water and decided to purchase this along with a brita water pitcher. I also purchased a set of silicone ice molds that were square and round from Walmart to use. The big square ice cubes work the best because they last longer. I will fill my yeti with the square cubes almost full because you have to leave room for the lid to fit in. When I add my water I make sure that it is already cold so it doesn’t melt my cubes. If I use my jug inside the ice will last at least three days as long as I keep using already cold water. I also take my yeti jug atv riding on the weekends. I’m a passenger princess on our side by side so my yeti sits between my feet in the floor ... MoreI have been using my yeti jug for a few weeks now and I’m impressed.

I will fill my yeti with the square cubes almost full because you have to leave room for the lid to fit in. When I add my water I make sure that it is already cold so it doesn’t melt my cubes. If I use my jug inside the ice will last at least three days as long as I keep using already cold water. I also take my yeti jug atv riding on the weekends. I’m a passenger princess on our side by side so my yeti sits between my feet in the floor board. It gets really hot in there if you have never road in one. We usually ride from 8 in the morning up to 2 or 3 in the morning the next morning and my ice will last at least a day and a half in the extreme heat. When we are gone all weekend I have to use bag ice from the store and it doesn’t last as long as my big cubes from home but it will get me through a long day in the extreme heat. I’ve always used ice in my jug so I don’t know how long it will keep just water cold. I love my jug and take it with me everywhere I go.

This jumbo sized thermos is wonderfully useful for long trips. Curious on how well it worked, I filled it full of boiling water. After 12 hours at an ambient temperature of 75˚ F the water cooled from 210˚ F to 170˚ F. So I think it's safe to assume that in most cases your hot beverage is going to stay that way for a reasonable work day.The magnetic cap retainer is genius, as the traditional cap connector flange or chain will always either break or get in the way of pouring or both. The carry handle provides a great grip and pivots for pouring.I normally like my gear in subdued colors but I liked the cheerful look of canary yellow. However, they do come in black and other colors. Getting them monogrammed is a great option for gifts or corporate operations.

First and foremost, yes, it is astronomically more expensive than the other “comparable” brands. But it is worth every penny. Let’s talk about the lid, it beats every other brand in quality and construction ten-fold. The insulation is beyond other brands. The magnetic cap, is brilliant. The handle feels firm. The rest of it is just amazing craftsmanship. You could spend 1/3 the price on other brands but if you want the ice to last more than a day, and maybe last 3 or 4, go with this because it’ll keep your beverages cold longer. The water to come out will feel like a normal bottle, not a tiny spout.Camp? Travel? Get it, it’s worth it.
