Fido, I don't see that decal on the AO website, did you order it or pick it up in store?


Bought it at the store during a game weekend

Pretty similar, but I would say that the Kuer is more feature rich, while the RTIC is more of just a Yeti clone. Hard to compare a 20 qt and a 75 qt though. I honestly haven't used the Kuer yet, I bought it mainly for hunting and fishing trips.

Thanks that definitely helps. Based on looking at them, is it the vacuum seal release that's the biggest difference? I'm very interested in the maroon but think the sun would make it a lot hotter than tan. I'm looking at the 45 size since it would mainly be used for tailgating.

The ~5 degF surface temperature of the maroon vs tan cooler isn't going to impact the internal temp during a tailgate. Keeping meat fresh on the side of a mountain or on the deck of a boat for multiple days.... maybe?

Eight years ago an engineer in Corpus doing a project on hard hat colors and heat exhaustion set out multiple colored hard hats white through black with thermal couples inside them in the sun all day. If I remember correctly it was around a 14 degree delta from white to black.

Ordered my 75 maroon in mid-February, but have not received it yet. Anyone else order same cooler around same time?

Whether it affects the inside temperature or not I wouldn't want to sit on or pick up a maroon cooler that's been sitting in the sun on a 100 degree day.

Ordered two maroon ones, with all the bells and whistles. A 45 for my truck and a 75 for the lake and ranger trips. They said April 2016 shipping.

Any must have accessories (drain plug, basket, Rod holder)? Going to order one.

Also, is there tax charged when ordering?
Texmid

Yes on the tax. I ordered the drain plug tether. I will buy an Aggie sticker elsewhere.

Can someone post up the inside? I wonder if any of the ice packs out there will fit like this.

Did you ever get your cooler. We ordered on 2/21 and still have not received it and get no responses to emails or phone calls.

I'm in the same boat with some lids for Yeti cups.

Yes I did. It arrived on 1/27. I've used it several times. Build quality seems good. I can only remember one time that is pulled a vacuum and I had to release it with the button. Not convinced it seals as well as I'd hoped.

I've called them a few times and left messages as well as emailed and also logged a ticket with their help desk, and gotten no response. I understand they are backordered, but dang at least respond to an inquiry. Plus their website currently lists all coolers as Sold Out. Hopefully they are still in business.

Doesn't sound good...I'm in the same boat on my second order.

I clicked for them to contact me when supplies are back up.

Hopefully they can make an order for me before Christmas! LOL

I paid for the 75 quart maroon cooler with the tethered drain plug on March 11. No word on when it will ship other than "April". My receipt from Paypal says I have 180 days to open a dispute, so, I guess I will give them until August.

I ordered one in December with a February ship date. It shipped on the 26th of February... They like to cut it close. But it was worth the wait.

That stinks. I had to contact customer service 3 times and always got a prompt response.

I've tried to contact them several times over the past couple of weeks, with no response. Finally got a response last night that they are expecting a shipment at their warehouse today, and will be shipping immediately. We shall see.

That is great news. Where is the warehouse? Everyone report back when you get your cooler.

Looks like they took down the location address. It is off of I45 in Spring.

I purchased a Maroon 75 on February 20th and it still hasn't shipped. I suspect there is a long list of folks waiting for one to ship. I put in a few support tickets because it was supposed to ship early March, then late March, then early April. I'm not one to jump on filing a credit card claim, but this is getting ridiculous. I still want the cooler as it was a birthday present. Maybe it will come in before the next birthday rolls around!

Complained yesterday and got a shipping confirmation today. Squeaky wheel gets the grease!

Just got shipping notice for my 75 qt maroon. This is my second one. First one ordered 1/30 and arrived 3/2. I ordered this second one on 3/2 and it should arrive this week (shipped in April as original promised).

No shipping notice for me, but I guess it is a positive that at least some of you are hearing back from them.
