Sure, there may be numerous reasons to buy a cooler. Whether it’s because the cooler is durable as hell, rolls everywhere you want it to, or just plain looks nifty, you’re still going to want it to perform its duty as an ice chest.
Of course, ice retention is as important as anything in finding and using a high-quality cooler on your wilderness escapades—just look at how we design our coolers. YETI Coolers are rugged and outperform at every opportunity, but durability is just one of the benefits.
With up to two inches or more of insulation in the walls and lids of most sizes, combined with a freezer-quality sealing gasket and one-piece construction, YETI provides industry-leading ice retention. Yet, if you’re asking what you can do to keep your cooler cold the longest, use our tips below to keep ice longer and thus, your contents fresh and cold.
Scientifically developed to help your regular ice stay frozen longer. YETI ICE® is filled to the brim with science, dialed in to the most effective temperature to maximize the ice retention of any cooler, with a durable design that is break-resistant.
Use Twice The Ice As Your Contents
Making sure you use enough ice in your cooler is key. We recommend following a ⅔ ice, ⅓ contents ratio. This means that one-third of your cooler can hold your cold drinks and food, while the other two-thirds should be filled with ice if you fill the cooler completely. The more ice you use, the longer it will last.
Dry Ice is Best (Hard Coolers and Ice Buckets Only)
The Tundra® and Roadie® Hard Coolers and YETI TANK® Ice Buckets are all dry ice compatible, however, Hopper® Soft Coolers are not. When used in conjunction with a YETI Hard Cooler, dry ice can keep food and drinks cold and frozen longer than regular ice. Here are some tips for using dry ice in a YETI cooler.

How to use a Yeti ice pack?
Sweat and leak-proof. A little expensive comparatively, but not much to dig a hole in your pocket. To use the Yeti Ice pack, you first need to freeze it up. After putting it into the cooler, it starts freezing before the water ice in the cooler does. And whether you believe or not, with this principle, ice tends to last longer.
Does Yeti ice work on a roadie?
Its custom shape reduces freezing time and multiple size options mean that you can outfit everything from your Roadie® 24 to your Tundra® 350 with YETI ICE®. It works as an ice supplement, a welcome addition to your ice stash to make sure your contents stay colder for longer. CAN IT REPLACE NEEDING REGULAR ICE INSIDE MY COOLER?
Does your Yeti cooler ice a cube?
Unless you have a Yeti cooler, you’re likely all too familiar with this common summer letdown: You open your cooler on a hot day to pluck a cold drink out of the ice, only to see nothing but cans and bottles floating in water, not a cube in sight. No matter how much ice you stuff into some coolers, they just don’t get the job done.
