I purchased this for my son last year for preschool and he continues to love to use it every day for kindergarten this year. He has had no trouble opening and closing the lunchbox himself. It fits the perfect amount and variety of foods - without leaking! We’ve used it with salad dressing, ketchup, maple syrup…and the items stay in their own compartments. I love being able to fit the main item, condiment, fruit, veggie/crackers and something sweet all in one container. We used to go through so many ziplock bags and little containers each week with my older children. I already purchased one for my nephew as a gift and I’m definitely going to purchase more for my daughter entering preschool next year.

My son loves his box. So easy for him to open and close up (he is 5 in kindergarten). I love not having to use multiple bags or containers when making his lunch. Only sad thing was my box did warp a bit when washed. Be careful if washing in the dishwasher. But reached out to customer support and they are helping me a new one.

I bought this product, and THEN I looked at some of the negative reviews. They all seemed to be geared around issues with disassembly and reassembly. If the silicone straw is removed and put back incorrectly, it's very difficult to get it back in, but if it's reincerted the same way it's removed, it's a piece of cake pulling it back through.

We purchased 3 water bottles in different styles and so far 2 of 3 have broken within 2 weeks of use. The first thing to break is the rubber carrying handle which occured within 72 hours, eventually the mouth piece flip top mechanism breaks. My 3 year old dropped her bottle inside a retail store today and the bottle cracked in half causing total damage. Unfortunately toddlers can be clumsy so I don't recommend this item due to it's lack of strength and durability for everyday use. It is aesthetically pleasing and matches our Bentgo bags and lunchboxes, however, we will not be purchasing the drinking bottles again. For the price it is marketed we expected a much better quality product. We find similar priced items made with rubber coated stainless steel so that's what we have now purchased. I don't recommend wasting money with the water bottles, they will eventually break.

I have twin 5 year olds and have used Bentgo boxes for their daycare and now Kindergarten. I just purchased one for my 18 month old and couldn't be happier. It's durable and does not crack no matter how many times my toddlers dropped them. Thank you for making a durable lunch box.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bentgo Kids lunch box is constructed from a durable plastic that can withstand some wear and tear by kids. The print design is a hard plastic surrounded by the solid color rubber bumpers. The removable tray is dishwasher and microwave safe. The interior has five different size compartments. None of the compartments are big enough for a full size sandwich without being cut smaller, which is disappointing. The food in each compartment is sealed in place with a rubber bumper on the top lid. Seeing that the compartments are small, I would suggest the Bentgo Kids box for smaller children or if your child eats smaller portions.

My daughter loves her bentgo lunch box. The compartments in the lunch box are convenient to separate foods of different temperature and to ensure foods do not mix. The kid loves the unicorn graphic on the outer shell. After a year of use, we had a small issue with the seal on the main compartment. I contacted customer support and they provided superb customer service.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bentgo kids lunch box is amazing. It has rubber coated edges for a non slip drop proof design. It has to snaps to keep it shut tight. It is leak proof and has 5 compartments for food. The tray is removable and dishwasher safe. You can also microwave the tray! It comes with a 2 year warranty. My son loves it. The only downfall is i wish it had a handle to carry it with!

My 9 year old son’s favorite Bentgo is the sharks print. He uses it weekly at school, rotating with our other Bentgos. He likes that this one has the small round compartment for dips, unlike the Bentgo Chill model. The large compartment is perfect for a half sandwich. We are able to fit these snuggly into Pottery Barn classic lunchboxes with thin reusable icepacks for school. We wash the inserts in the dishwasher and hand wash the shells. This lunch box has been the perfect size for preschool and elementary years.
