Cambro UPC or UPC S-Series?
After three hard years on the road, the time has come to retire the Carlisle insulated food carrier we've been using in competition. We've decided to try a Cambro brand unit this time around and we're looking at a Cambro UPC-400 or a UPCS400 (S-Series). They are identical in size but, from what I can tell, the only real difference is that the UPC has a replaceable gasket and vent while the S-Series has both gasket and vent built in.
Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions on either of these units? Your input would be appreciated!

I have had the UPC-400 for a few years now and it is awesome. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for.
Pull the trigger.

I've got a line on a new one for $277.18 which includes shipping so it seems like a good value. I've seen them running for well over $400 in some places before shipping.

We're going to keep it on hand as a back up and for those occassions when we need two. You never know when a promoter is going to have a "3 contests in 2 days" event around here.

That is an excellent suggestion and an action that we took long ago just to get the door close. The hinges don't slide far enough to make the door align properly and, therefore, seal as tightly as it could.

Ha! I can also say, "New Cambro!"
But we're still wondering if anyone knows about the differences between the UPC and the S-Series.
