Features

  • Extra-thick walls contain proprietary PermaFrost™ insulation that is pressure injected, giving the cooler excellent resistance to outside temperatures
  • Rotomolded polyethylene construction, the same process used to make whitewater kayaks, ensures excellent impact resistance and long-lasting durability
  • YETI coolers are designed to handle extremely low temperatures and are compatible with dry ice; dry ice provides about 3 times the cooling power of regular ice
  • Roadie cooler has a 18.9-liter capacity (19.9 qt.) that will hold 12 cans and plenty of ice; designed to accommodate long-neck bottles
  • Roadie lid doesn't just close, it seals shut with a freezer-quality gasket around the entire lid to minimize air exchange
  • Durable rubber T-latches fit in the molded latch keepers on the cooler to ensure the lid stays closed
  • The Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee has certified the Roadie 20 as a bear-resistant food container when used with 2 padlocks (not included), 1 on each of the front corners
  • Tie-down slots are molded into the cooler body for solid mounting in your boat or truck; cooler can be secured while allowing access to the inside; straps sold separately
  • Full-length, rustproof aluminum rod connects and holds the body and lid together; hinge stops are molded in the lid so the hinge will never break
  • Screw-in gasketed drain plug won't leak; partially unscrew the plug to drain water
  • Full-length stainless-steel handle locks upright for easy transportation
  • Nonmarking rubber feet on the bottom of the cooler keep it from sliding around the deck of your boat

Great for a couple of days camping

I go fly fishing 3 to 4 times a year where I'll camp out. I always wanted a cooler that would keep things cold longer. Picked one of these up on sale at REI. I am very pleased. Packed it full of goodies, eggs, butter, sausage, steaks, hamburgers, frozen veggies and off I went with my Coleman stove. Let me tell you it was like pulling stuff out of the fridge. The Yeti doesn't take up much room in the Subaru which is a big plus and keeps things cold for a couple of days. It was the best I ever ate on a camping trip. Expensive but worth it. I totted around an old ice chest for years having to buy ice every day to keep things cold. No more. If your budget can afford it buy one.

Wasn't what I hoped

I really wanted to love this cooler but I just felt it wasn't worth the price! I used it in my camper van on extended trips... ice melted just as quickly as my $20 coleman cooler. inside remained somewhat cold but in the end just wasn't impressed with it. I've heard people have better luck and longer lasting ice in the larger yeti coolers. Yeti is a great brand, just wasn't too happy with this little roadie. I also found myself shuffling things around for space a lot because after you put the ice in, there isn't much room for your food items.

The roadie is compact so you can take in anywhere

11 years ago

I have more than just the roadie but I take the roadie everywhere cause its compact. When you spend as much time as I do on the woods and on the water there is no comparison to the yeti cooler. All of my coolers have been abused and they still look and preform like they are new.If you can't see a yeti in these photos there is not one too far away I promise.

Beautiful Reef Blue Cooler!!!!!

The best cooler i have ever bought! Shipping was a little but of an issue when i received my package. The corner of the box had a hole and the cooler corner was damaged. Could not exchange for a identical one because the color was sold out. Still a wonderful product!

Great Little Cooler!

7 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Yeti Roadie 20. We purchased the Yeti For my mother that was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I wanted a cooler that would keep food and drinks cold all day for her during the long Chemotherapy Sessions. The YETI did not disappoint! It keeps her drinks and food perfectly cool all day without having to use much ice. It’s little things that help her get through the treatments, like having a favorite candy bar, favorite snack, and drinks. Yes it cost more then others, but it is a great cooler that should last a lifetime! So Buy it, ice last longer and the drinks stay colder. (This Product was part of a Promotion.)

I purchased a Mercedes Benz Limousine and had it converted to a Travel/Touring Coach rather than leaving it as a Party Limo. Installed some small cabinetry for storage and instead of installing a 12V automotive refridgerator(very expensive). I bought the Pink Roadie 20. This was the BEST adaptation of the entire conversion. Me and my wife are downsizing from a 45 Prevost Bus, so now, at GEEZER(GZR) age, we are looking for simplicity, efficiency comfort and reliability.

Another incredible Yeti product

8 years ago

Love my new Roadie 20. I knew it was meant to be when it fit perfectly inside the crate I intent to mount to my quad rack in prep for beach cruising in Baja. I know the Roadie will keep the cervesas cold all day and beyond. If they last that long....

Keeps the beer growler cool

9 years ago

Always wanted a Yeti cooler. So, I sprung for one a couple of weeks back. Beyond the pri$e, it is a great cooler. Mind you, I'm a newbie at the Yeti world; my Rodie has but a single trip on it. However, with a couple of ice packs in it, it did just fine keeping the next day's b-fast raw eggs, etc. cool and ready to cook. Don't take this bad boy on the trail, weighs about that of a small child (17 lb.). Put some sodas and water in for the trip back so it sat in the car for three days. Stuff still cool (not refrigerator cool, but certainly not -as open in the car) when we got back even with the ambient temps in the mid - 80's outside. Pretty impressive
