YETI Hopper M Series Backpack Soft Sided Coolers with MagShield Access

We bought this for our regular beach holidays as it has comfortable shoulder straps and a fairly large storage capacity. You are also able to attach other yeti products such as a cooler flask and the molle retractable bottle opener to it. My wife struggled a bit with the magnetic opening and closing feature but it didn't take long to get the hang of it. It stored all our food for lunch without issue. Also having the ability to attach the yeti flask externally full of ice made our beach booze lovely and cold. I chose this one as it has the kangaroo type pouch, which is great for storing items you dont want in the cooler. Cleaning just needs a damp cloth as it's a tough vinyl type material. I'm fairly sure it would float if dropped into water as its magnetic seal is excellent and shuts almost automatically. It is incredibly solid and possibly a bit on the heavy side for fitting in your suitcase but that aside I cant ever see it breaking and should last forever, hense the hefty price tag for yeti products. Highly recommended piece of kit for those who prioritise quality over cost.

After using this on several occasions such as trips to the water park, zoo, hiking, and grocery hauls, I can say that these Hopper series backpacks are seriously worth the money. Sturdy build quality! Fell off of a moving pickup around 20 mph onto the pavement and not so much as a scratch on it. Also found out on that same occasion that it does not leak! Kept our beverages and frozen burger patties solid for about 5 hours (with ice). Space is limited, but that's what full sized coolers are for. It can be tricky getting larger items like milk gallons through the opening, which is stiff and can be difficult for some to fold over and close using the buckles. The only real way to dry it out is to place it upside down while open to properly drain and air dry. All in all, worth every penny if you want a durable backpack cooler if you're on the move to keep your hands free and drinks cold. The dry bags made by Yeti also mount nicely to this cooler and are a handy place to keep your phones/wallets as well.

Well made and sleek looking Very happy with purchase

Overall a great cooler. I wish lid held open a bit better when trying to reach in and see what you’re grabbing. But overall it works amazing and most importantly keeps everything cold

When carrying suitably sized goods, it functions wonderfully when packed as recommended by manufacturer.

Want a backpack that’s durable + keeps your lunch cold? A slim Yeti ice pack keeps my fluids and lunch perfectly cold for 8hrs. The kangaroo pocket on the front is shallow and slim so I bought the sidekick to hold my phone, glasses etc. The packsack itself is very rigid and takes a bit to get used to but once you do you are golden. The M12 is perfect for all my needs. Heavily recommended to anyone that’s tired of packsacks falling apart on you
