Yeti Loading Bucket is a real workaholic. The five-gallon bucket has a virtually indestructible design and some convenient features, including a flexible handle, non-slip bottom, and tie-down slots. It’s also stackable, in case you want to buy a few.

And because Yeti makes several accessories for the Loadout Bucket, like a utility gear belt, interior storage compartment, and waterproof lid, you can use it for a variety of things. Use it in the yard, take it fishing, or just store your gear.

At $40, it’s also one of the most affordable things Yeti sells.

Recently, Yeti released perhaps the best accessory for Loadout Bucket yet. This makes the bucket more versatile and comfortable. And yes, you will definitely want to sit on it.

Yeti Loadout Swivel Seat

Yes, it’s a swivel seat

The Loadout Swivel Seat turns Yeti’s Loadout Bucket into something you’d actually want to sit on. It’s made from a sturdy foam that the brand says is waterproof, UV protected, and abrasion resistant.

Of course, it won’t be super sweet. It promises to be much more comfortable than a non-padded cover.

360 degree (quiet) rotation

It also swivels a full 360 degree rotation. So you sit on the swivel seat and go around in circles in the same direction without being stopped or hindered.

And thanks to “wear-resistant nylon glides,” Yeti says, when the seat swivels… it swivels silently.

Hang it on the side

The Loadout Swivel Seat has several other convenient features. Like the standard lid, it creates the same tight seal that prevents items from getting in or out. But it also has a finger release tab that makes it easy to remove.

And once removed, there’s a hook inside the swivel seat, so instead of dropping it on the floor (and getting the seat dirty), you can hang it on the side of the seat.

Pricing and availability

The Loadout Swivel Seat costs $60, which means that, like several other compatible accessories, it’s more expensive than the Yeti Loadout Bucket itself.

As of this writing, you can’t order the Swivel Sweatshirt on its own from Yeti’s website…although you can purchase it from Tractor Supply. Yeti sells it with a “fully loaded” version of the Loadout Bucket (which comes with other accessories) for $160.

It is available in only one color: black.
