YETI Rambler 12 oz. Colster Can Insulator

This insulator, like other insulators from Yeti, works really well (at least for the cold drinks I purchased it for). It keeps my drinks colder longer than the cheap foam insulator I was using before (you know, those cheap foam insulators they give away as a promotion). However, the design has three flaws: 1) The stainless steel used for the insulator makes it a solid, sturdy unit. The insulator will not dent or deform during normal use (unless you purposely bash it with a hammer or use it as a baseball). However, the material adds heft to the insulator and often times I need to look into the can of my drink to see if it's empty. This is not a huge issue, it does mean you can't easily determine if you have any liquid remaining in the can just by picking it up. So it means I need to change my habit a little bit. 2) Then insulator picks up finger prints easily. It means you'd need to wash it or wipe it down often if you don't like seeing finger prints all over the insulator. Now, this finger print issue is common to many products made with stainless steel, so it is not a fault of the product design. But is is a consideration for the consumer who is forking out money to buy this item. I don't usually see my finger prints on the aluminum cans (at least not as easily), and I definitely don't see my finger prints when I use those cheap foam insulators. For those like that to keep their table/desk area looking nice and clean all the time even while they work, seeing finger prints on an item that can sit on your table/desk for hours at a time is definitely distracting. 3) The more annoying flaw is the shape of the plastic ring that is screwed on to the insulator to keep the can in place. All modern 12 oz beverage cans (soda, beer, etc.) are contoured right below the rim to accommodate our lower lip when we drink, and these contours now seem to be universally identical. We have grown used to this contour shape and have grown used to how the cans should fit around our lips. This means our lips' muscles have been trained to form our lips a certain way in order to mate the lips to the cans as we bring the cans close to our mouths. The Yeti insulator's plastic ring has an odd shape that makes the drinking experience less "intuitive" and less natural. It basically takes away that "grip" I'd normally have with my lower lip when drinking out of the can. I now need to form my lower lip a little differently when drinking with the insulator. It is not something that I can't learn to live with, but it's definitely not nothing I expected when I purchased it — I didn't expect that a simple insulator would end up altering my drinking habit. In summary: — Yes, the insulator works — A bit on the heavy side for what I am used to — Shows finger prints too easily — Weird to sip or drink out of due to the shape of the plastic ring After having used this insulator daily for the last 30 days, I have decided to just go back to my cheap foam insulator for when I need to keep something cooler longer. In fact, for something like sodas, I'd just use the bare cans without any insulator.

It kept my adult beverage cold for a long time. Took it on the boat in 100 degree weather and it stayed cold. Helped me grip the can a lot easier as we were coasting on the lake.

Fits pop or beer perfectly. Most importantly - keeps any beverage COLD. Also enjoyed how there was plenty of colors to choose from!

I live in FL where it's hot all the time! I bought this to keep my beverages (beer) cold when I sit outside, go to the beach or hang out at the pool. It definitely keeps my drinks cold! It's easy to clean, easy to get the beer in/out, and I got the pink so it's a beautiful color! Well worth it!

Keep your soda cold forever. I always forget my soda in different parts of the house when I’m walking around and every time I found it it was just as cold as when I put it in to my yeti.❤️
