    Can't say much on hopper but I have the 45 tundra and use it for personel cooler when one is needed. Only thing I can say is if you plan on packing it around much and don't need whole lot thats as big as I'd go. For one person to pack around the 45 gets pretty hefty with a case of cold beverages and topped off with ice. The 50 or 65 would probably be the biggest I would think you'd wanna try solo and not sure that'd be all that fun.


    Pretty good to see these colmpanies stepping up, not sure wallet is gonna like it though ha. But money well spent.

    I'm torn between either the tundra 110 or 125 and something smaller for personal beverage packing maybe even the hopper...... hmmm. I'll be flipping a coin if I have to. Purchase will be made tomorrow!

    I have a 45, 105 and 110.

    The 110 has a larger footprint and tends to easier to shuffle things around in then the 105. make sure you have room for it.

    The 45 is a great little cooler that gets a lot of use, fits enough for a few days and isn't overly heavy. the peice I fouhnd myself using a lot this summer was hopper 30, it's easy to toss into the back seat, takes up almost no room compared to a cooler. it's holds ice fantastic ...even better is isinyg a few solid cool packs. it's bullet proof, extremely well made.

    I am pulling the trigger on some Sitka and already some on yeti for the wife:biggrin:. I just cant decide if I want to pull the trigger on one of the hopper. One, still seems like a lot with other brands out there at about 1/2 the price and I don't really know which one to get that would best work without looking at them. :confused: But we will see.

    I've always not wanted to be one of those Yeti guys.......but I need a decent cooler and I was gonna donate anyhow to Harvey. Picked up a new Tundra 45 and a bunch of ice packs late last night once it started. It's great to see these guys stepping up to help!

    KY, I agree, there are other brands out there for a cheaper price, but for what Yeti is doing, its going for a great cause; I'm going to purchase a couple of items from them. I was hoping Orca was going to do the samething as I have one of their coolers :biggrin:

    Awesome. I have a Hopper 30, a Tundra 65, and two Tumblers. Great products. Definitely pricey, but this is a great cause and glad to see them stepping up.

    Placed a good size order today. Bought a half dozen Christmas gifts and some thank you gifts for my buddies that are coming on a caribou hunt with me next week.

    Ok I have a tundra 110 in the cart but wondering the size difference between the hopper 20 and 30. I'd like something compact but don't want to regret going too small. So 20 or 30?

    I just read the 125 will pack 2 quartered deer.... Hope I can do that with the 110 maybe with just a little less ice??? cause the only trip I go on where I need to pack deer in a cooler I usually have 2 to bring home. Geez I thought you guys were looking out for me. Droppin the ball! Eh guess I'll get the 125 later this year

    I'll try I have a tracking number and everything. But with the holiday it may not have left yet. You said you had both 110 and 125. Is the size difference that considerable? If so I'll just get a 45 or something to make up the difference and have a nice beer cooler other than the hopper
