Bought one for me and my brother in law. Was really disappointed to find out they were single walled. Last time we were on a golf trip the whisky from a non-insulated flask in 40°c heat is just waaay too hot and like battery acid. Was hoping to put in an ice cold negroni mix for the next game. Also the worst lid by far has to be the 1/2 and 1 gallon ramblers. They're impossible to take off sometimes.
I totally get the frustration! Single-wall construction isn’t ideal for keeping drinks cold in the heat-I've had great luck with the Rambler bottles for that. The 1-gallon jug, though, is one of my personal favorites. I use the handle as leverage to get the lid off. I'm bigger than the average person and can def see it being an issue for many. Quick hack: the gallon jug works as a mini cooler, too-great for keeping drinks cold on the course. Thanks for sharing your experience! I’ve learned with certain Yeti items that avoiding a stuck lid takes a little technique! For example, I always hand-tighten-never over-tighten-the lids. Learned that the hard way with the gallon jug once! I over tightened it and had to go to war to get it off! With the travel mug, I’m also cautious when adding hot coffee to avoid leaks or lid issues. But even with these quirks, I wouldn’t trade my Yeti gear for anything else.
@@dlowder The 1/2 and 1 gallon Rambler only have a handle on top, and there's nothing to get leverage on to open if it's stuck. I've found jamming it between my boots helps a lot, but I shouldn't have to result to that. I have lost a couple gallons so far in my work car because I haven't tightened the lid enough
its flawlessly welded together, quality steel, mirror polished inside, zero worries of leeching into and tainting my Wellers or Elijah Craig. its worth the price point relative to what available. lets face it, majority of drinking flasks are chintzy. This is def a lifetime purchase item.
Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate your perspective. I understand the importance of visual information. I'll work on incorporating more visuals to clearly demonstrate the capacity in my reviews. Your input helps me improve.
That's a great idea! I might have to steal that one from you. The seat has to much potential. I have one coming this week. I'll do a short video on it.
@@alfonsovega8116 what didn’t you like about it in particular? I’ll have to check that cooler out. Competition is good for us at the end of the day. Usually results in better products!
I bought that aged and or travel whiskey four pack with the rubber coated glasses. So I end up skipping on the flask that you just reviewed, but but I did buy recently. The shot glasses from yeti… I’m waiting for them, but they look really really nice.
Those glasses sound amazing. You have a link? The Yeti shot glasses are a great piece of kit. With the container they take up little space. Let me know what you think when you get them.
Thank you for watching and I appreciate the feedback. Having the angled side down is night and day better depending on how loose or tight your pants are! 🍻
Many people share your view on that! I wish it were priced at 25-30, but I imagine limited R&D and limited runs play a big role in the cost. Prices in Canada are quite hectic for everything; they go for 65 here.
It definitely would be heavier and bulkier but I feel that is an aspect of the Yeti brand. I personally would sacrifice weight for a tougher more versatile item.
Most of Yeti's beverage items are doubled walled. A double-walled cup keeps beverages hot or cold longer because it uses an air gap between the outer and inner wall and the heat can only travel through the captured air.
😂😂 yeah $50 … complete joke … that’s not even the size of a true flask that’s more of a shot glass That’s flat flat with a lid what a complete rip off a
I think the single wall design is perfect for a flask, as long as it thicker than average… it’s supposed to be easily carried & concealable. Double walls would double the weight & increase the dimensions by a significant amount. What they should’ve done was: 1- Make the cap magnetic so it’s easy to store when drinking/filling 2- Somehow make it easier to clean than the competition, maybe by making the spout a bigger or making the entire top removable. 3- Since they’re expanding the materials used in their products (Ceramic, plastic, cast iron) they could’ve made this out of Titanium… making it thin & light while being stronger than a thicker SS design.
That's a good solution to have the single wall be thicker. I love the idea of a magnetic cap-convenience is key, and that would definitely enhance the user experience. Making it easier to clean is also a great call, whether by widening the spout or making the top fully removable. Titanium is an interesting idea too! It could offer the lightweight strength without compromising on durability, especially with all the new materials they're exploring. That would be a game-changer compared to stainless steel. I saw that Snow Peak makes a titanium flask but the price is quite a bit more. Thanks for sharing these thoughts-really insightful!
@@sabbage100 I appreciate your input! There are plenty of videos focused specifically on what it fits inside and ice retention, but I wanted to highlight other aspects of the product. This was more of a review/unboxing, as you can see with the tags still on and starting with the box opening. Watching back it would have been nice to include a size reference. Thanks for watching, and I’ll consider your suggestion for future reviews!
