PICK OF THE MONTHYETI RAMBLER WINE TUMBLER & YETI HOPPER FLIP 12 SOFT COOLER

US company YETI was founded by Roy and Ryan Seiders back in 2006; since then, it’s built a strong reputation for producing quality products designed to beat the heat when you’re out and about in the wilds.

As such, they’re great for caravanning, helping to keep your food and drinks chilled even during periods of higher temperatures.

We’ve been testing the YETI Rambler 10oz wine tumbler and the Hopper Flip 12 Soft Cooler for the past couple of months, and we have been very impressed with both.

The Rambler tumbler is double-wall vacuum insulated to keep your drink chilled, and is made of kitchen-grade stainless steel – it won’t shatter if you drop it, meaning it’s much safer when you’re sitting outside on your pitch.

It features a Magslider lid, which opens easily and smoothly, and the mug feels solid and comfortable to hold. We tested the blue/green Sea Foam version, but 11 other colours are available.

The Hopper Flip 12 Soft Cooler, meanwhile, is incredibly spacious yet light in weight. It feels sturdy and beautifully made, in a high-density fabric with a sturdy, leakproof Hydrolok zip. The Coldcell insulation kept our food and drink cool
