That is a yeti cooler if I have ever seen one. Boys if I didn't already have a yeti I would be jumping all over these Looks identical..

I've been wanting a 20qt and I was looking at Yeti because I already have one of their products. This is half the price. I think I'll try one. It's actually under half price if you consider: 1. Their 20/45/65 coolers actually hold that much liquid (unlike the Yeti) 2. No tax 3. Free shipping. No sticker though..

Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

You can follow them on facebook. Yes, they are made in China. The company has a trademark on the name and the are a registered LLC. My daughter actually lives about 15 miles from their listed address in Houston. I'm betting they will be working 24 hours a day to get all the orders out if they are legit.

I heard last year that yeti's patent was about to run out. I don't know if that's true or if patents can expire. Just what I heard.
Yeah c’mon. Daniel White

Could have been the beer, or the fact that I didn't have to get the CC out just yet, but reserved me one too. Looks like a good deal, JIT for season to start.

Good looking cooler. But I'm going to be buying one of these soon. Made in TN by a good bunch guys who put a lot of time and effort researching their products. Phuck China and their bullschit, counterfeited knock off crap. http://www.orioncoolers.com/

These guys have been making an identical cooler to Yeti for well over a year now. http://www.litcoolers.com I have been involved in two patent attempts working in design in the power industry, and let me tell you... It is not easy getting a patent, even on something as specific as what we were working on. Both of our attempts were rejected multiple times and involved a lot of attorney's fees. My point is if it is that difficult to get one on something very specialized then I would assume that it would be extremely difficult and expensive to get one on something as innocuous as a cooler when similar devices have been built in various configurations for hundreds of years.
