i have a yeti 30 oz cup kids gave me for christmas. i love it, keeps ice all day long. wanted another, but didn't like the $40. heard wally world was selling a 10 dollar knock off, finally found one in stock, so i tried it.
i filled both cups with ice and set them on the back porch. left them out overnight for 15 hours. got up next morning and drained water for comparison. not 100% scientific, but close enough for drink cups. ![]() as you can see, pretty close to same melt rate. just thought i'd share this the yeti is silver & ozark is black |

I absolutely love my Yeti tumbler. I got it as a groomsman gift from my best bud. He had them each engraved with each guys boat name! Cool idea!

I saw a tiny Yeti cooler at West Marine with a $249 price tag. It might have fit a 12 pack surrounded with ice.
For $249 I can buy 100 twenty pound bags of ice at BJ's...a ton of ice... I just can't bust that nut.

Wow. Looks as if the Yeti melted a little bit more. The price people pay for a trendy name.

Skunk, I couldn't agree more. For me, the ice has to last one day... maybe two if I'm doing an overnight. My big Igloo does that with no problems, and it cost WAYYYYYYY less than a Yeti.

Good experiment Phatdaddy. Got a friend with a yeti cup and another with a knock off, both like them.
I own 4 marine igloos plus a few smaller coolers. The last two I bought one was a 168 quart for 40 bucks, one was a 72 quart for 5 bucks at a garage sale. Got a 94 quart for free out of a derelict I drug out of the weeds.
