My kids love the original bentgo chill box but their growing appetites made us really excited to try this larger version. The chill max is as great as the original with a moveable divider bonus. The built in ice pack in the max chill can nest under the ice pack of the chill for efficient freezer space. Hoping you will sell lids and extra trays for the chill max so we can pack our lunch the night before and store in the fridge.

Game-changer! This backpack is lightweight with good back and shoulder support. The zippers are made well, work well, and have gripes (helpful for small hands). The insulated bottom works with both types of Bentgo lunch boxes (with or without the ice trays). Adjustable cup holder for lots of sizes. Lots of compartment space. Brilliant for our kindergartener.

This is the best lunch box ever, previously we used the same but bigger for 2 school years. The quality is top! My son loves it. We live in California and it's too hot sometimes for carrying sandwiches without ice pack. With this box my son has a healthy and fresh lunch every day. I also paid it with the snacks box. They both perfectly fit a bentgo lunch bag!

This was my kids first time using this Bentgo box with chill pack. I’ve always used the standard one. I really like the built in ice pack. It’s a little difficult opening and closing the lunch container the reason for 3 stars. But overall we like it. And I like the compartments it has in this one. I will probably purchase more for my other two kids in the future.

Super cute, seems sturdy and well-made. But the size. It won't fit a binder without serious wrestling. Kids in the age bracket listed for this bag often have folders and binders and a bag needs to hold them easily. The colors are vibrant and zippers worked easily. The organization pockets were nice - not too many to where things get jumbled, but enough to keep things tidy.

Love the print and the idea of the lunchbox on the bottom. I do wish the box part was removable, but knew that it wasn’t before hand so no big deal. The backpack, however, is very small inside and needs to be a couple of inches taller. Right now we have to bend my kiddos take home folder to fit inside and if she wanted to put a sweatshirt or jacket in there it would be full.

My son has had this box for a week now and I will say when I pick him up from school inside of his insulated lunch box and not his book bag, it does stay cold. But I downside is that it is much larger and heavier than expected and when the container is closed without the ice pack it is VERY HARD to open and I have to use a fork or knife to pry it open, but with the ice tray opens with no issue. It is also hard to pull the ice tray out at the end of the day.

I’m not sure if the issue is with the item I received or if it’s just how this product is made, but the inner compartments don’t fit properly. The pieces feel loose and keep shifting, which makes the lunchbox a bit inconvenient to use. I expected the compartments to lock in place, but they don’t sit securely at all.

I wanted to love this but it just doesn’t work for my daughter. I bought the chill mini and the xl chill but both have the same issues. The tray and ice pack seem to create some sort of suction and it’s almost impossible to get them open. She has commented that if she lets it warm up it seems easier to open but she really doesn’t have the time to wait.

This backpack is way too small for a kindergartener or first grader—I couldn’t even fit a standard binder inside. The design idea is good, but it’s just not practical. What’s really frustrating is that returns aren’t free and are such a hassle, so I’m stuck keeping it even though it doesn’t work for us.
