significant design flaw

October 29, 2024The chug cap was apparently designed only for carrying upright, and the numerous reviews must have only tested it that way. Because if you drive anywhere and lay it down, you need to tighten the cap quite a bit to not leak. On the second use, I couldn't unscrew the narrow-spout base... Even channel locks couldn't provide enough grip and leverage to bust it loose, and my vice doesn't open quite wide enough. I eventually got it off with my biggest pipe wrench, which of course marred the rubber a fair bit. The chug cap itself unscrews easily by its handle, but the base needs a heavily serrated perimeter (like a classic Nalgene bottle) or hex/octagon shape to have something to grip onto. The base gets tightened by tightening the cap, so it's all-or-nothing. It's a very shortsighted design for such a premium priced product. Functionally, the 36 oz Yeti doesn't insulate nearly as well as my smaller Hydroflask, but it's much better than a non-insulated Nalgene. Trying to contact Yeti about the issue is equally frustrating, as all their contact options lead to dead ends and even the Chat With Us link doesn't go anywhere or open anything. They utilize the contact page as a shameful means of selling more product.

August 22, 2024I love my Rambler 18 oz it keeps my ice coffee perfect all day, however, I've stopped using the optional plastic straw my husband purchased from Yeti. I have found that once the contents are gone if I have let it set a while and forgot to close the black sipping portion of the lid any residual drink that may be left in the straw will spit out. I've three times been showered with coffee when I went to retrieve the Rambler. I'm guessing it's due to a pressure change in the canister. I would still recommend the 18 oz, just not with the straw. I use it everywhere. It can fit inside of my small backpack and I also have a clip which attaches to my back pack and the water bottle. I love the convenience of it being small, and not as heavy as my larger yeti water bottle. It’s just right when your st the pool, quick trip to mall, and by night stand for sipping.

January 24, 2024I'd been looking for a way to make my Yeti Rambler 46 oz bottle more usable, and I was highly intrigued by this product. When I reached out to the maker, he was very fast and friendly in his responses. Even offered me other colors that weren't listed on the page and answered my questions promptly. Once I ordered, my product was made very quickly and arrived quickly as well. The fit and look are great. Almost too great! If you have stickers or etchings on your bottle like I do, I would recommend that you first decide where exactly you want your handle to go because once you slide it on there, it's pretty tight and not very easy to get off. This actually makes it feel very secure, however, and now I love carrying around my bottle. It's a beautiful design. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to use their bottle more.
Doesn’t keep drinks cold

August 11, 2024I recently purchased a YETI water bottle with high expectations, given its reputation for durability and performance. Unfortunately, it has not lived up to its promises in terms of keeping drinks cold. I will fill it with ice and water and within two hours, the ice melts and the water is not cold. I expected better temperature retention from a brand known for its premium insulation. While the build quality is robust and the design is sleek, the lack of effective cooling performance is a significant drawback. For those prioritizing ice-cold beverages, this bottle might not be the best choice. There is a portion of glass on the neck and maybe that’s why it doesn’t live up to the quality of my other Yeti products.
