Review: Seal damaged - Don’t expect the seal to be in splits and tape all over the place, didn’t arrive in a sealed pack as if someone hurriedly shipped it. Original packaging missing and simply put in a big size poleyethe. Don’t expect this from Yeti or I suspect that desertcart’s local delivery partner for this, who are notorious for shipping old items. Ordered another one with hope that this time they get it right. Still waiting on my return request, wonder why does it take long for them to respond. desertcart, please don’t just skip by simply putting the onus on the delivery partner, I bought it from you, so please take the blame Review: Yes it’s expensive but you cannot buy better. I have been camping for five days and there is still ice on it at the end.

Amazon, please don’t just skip by simply putting the onus on the delivery partner, I bought it from you, so please take the blame ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***R on 31 January 2025* Yes it’s expensive but you cannot buy better. I have been camping for five days and there is still ice on it at the end. It’s also bombproof quality never mind bear proof. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***C on 11 July 2025* Je cherchais une glacière de grande capacités et bien isolante, en effet si desormais il y a des glacière avec moteur cela prend forcément de la place et c'est du poid en plus, de plus cela veut dire que vous avez un vehicule ou une prise a proximité. Donc en cas de doute c'est mieux de prendre une glacière passive. C'est ma première glacière YETI, je suis curieux de voir comment elle tiendra, elle a une bonne capacité ce qui permettra de garder des boissons au frais assez longtemps. Le poids a vide est de 9kg, elle est prévue pour supporté 37 kg. Un defaut est que le joint n'est pas total, il est tranché avec un morceau de "scotch" dessus, je ne comprend pas pourquoi. ## Frequently Bought Together - YETI Tundra 45 Cooler - YETI ICE, Refreezable, Reusable, Cooler Ice Pack for Hard and Soft Coolers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/740368048-yeti-tundra-45-cooler](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/740368048-yeti-tundra-45-cooler) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
