The function is there to prevent soggy ingredients. I was really hoping that I would be able to shake the container to mix everything after adding the top tray ingredients in. The lid does not fit onto the base without the middle tray. If it did this would be perfect.

A more perfect salad container does not exist! I feel like a nerd but geeked out over how great this item is. It is the easiest and best way to bring a salad to work. Toppings and dressing are completely separate from the salad so no soggy lettuce or stale toppings. Cannot recommend enough.

Headed back to the office for the first time during the pandemic, I bought three salad containers to use for lunches throughout the week. I love that they are BPA free and compact. The color olive is nice. The only drawback is that the tops and dressing container must be hand-washed. The shipping took a bit longer than expected. Overall, I am really happy. On a design note, it would be fun to release them in retro colors: harvest gold, avocado, 80s brown, rust, and teal. :)

I love the compartments and easy to clean and separate container for the salad dressing. What's not to love, the plastic which goes over the fork on the lid is a little temperamental about going back on at times. Also, I like to toss my salad and it will only really toss with the white part back in which doesn't give it a lot of clearance, but it does something.

Itʻs the perfect container for me at work. I can place all the bulk of my salad on the bottom while having my toppings separated on top. I donʻt just use if for salad but meals that require heating up in a microwave as the bottom is microwave safe. Again itʻs perfect for me at work!

Found this looking for a way to easily bring salads to work. It’s so great it’s almost perfect! There is plenty of room for an entree size salad and I love how the toppings are kept separate until you’re ready to mix them together. So much easier than having separate containers for everything! My only complaints are that smells are hard to get out of the plastic, and the way the fork is held into the top is a bit finicky and just adds another part to wash.

I absolutely love this salad bowl. It's so convenient in the fact that I can place all of my favorite toppings in one bowl without compromising their freshness. Also that there is a compartment and container for the salad dressing! This bowl even comes with its own fork! I am so happy I went ahead and got this! I saw someone on social media with it and had to have one! I look forward to purchasing more bentgo products in the near future! I am super pleased!!!!! =)

This is a great salad container: perfect size for lunch for the granddaughter. She likes salads and the top option will hold her favorite toppings: peppers, cucumbers, fruits, maybe even salad dressing if she so chooses. Love this size and washable container.

Love the size and ability to separate ingredients that can wilt the greens. Only problem I found was the small dressing container. The lid does not seat completely. It didn't leak but not taking the chance after first use and am using a small screw down lid container and using the dressing container for seeds.

My daughter likes to bring salads for her school lunches sometimes. We had trouble finding a container for her salad dressing that was compact but wouldn’t leak. We also had to use three separate containers for lettuce, croutons, and dressing. This salad lunchbox by Bentgo solved all of our problems. There is a tray that sits above the lettuce bowl with separate sections for croutons and whatever else you may add to your salad. In the middle, there is a spot for the dressing container. It has a lid and hasn’t leaked any dressing out. All of this is held together with a snap on lid. There’s a fork on top, which is nice, but the clear cover over the fork sometimes pops off (it may be user error). That’s not an issue, as she carries the salad box in her lunch bag. It is a bit bigger than I expected, but it still fits in her lunch bag with no issues.
