We’ve talked a lot about Yeti coolers in the past, but we don’t mention another great brand out there very often: Engel. Engel is a high performance cooler brand that targets fisherman and hunters as their main focus. While their coolers are solid and very durable, some features can be lacking when compared to Yeti and the insulation of the smaller coolers isn’t as great as it could be. However, Engel coolers are significantly less expensive versus Yeti and also are lighter and smaller for their capacity.

Overview of Engel Coolers

Engel Coolers are designed to push the boundaries of what a high-performance cooler can do. Blending contemporary technology with rugged design, Engel coolers come with two inches of high-density polyurethane foam injected into every face of the cooler. 50 years in the business of quality cooler construction sets Engel apart from other manufacturers. For the serious outdoor-enthusiast, nothing compares to the Engel's Roto Molded High Performance Coolers.

Food grade plastic makes these coolers safe, stain-resistant, and easy to clean.
