I bought this a few months ago as so many friends used these for their kids’ lunches. They seem heavy duty compared to other bento containers which I appreciate, but I’m not totally convinced these are much better than other simpler models of bentos on the market. The divider is not leak proof on this model and the 2 extra inserts are truly just inserts with a snapping lid (which is very complicated for little hands to open compared to other similar products we own). they don’t come with the leak proof shell that the brand is known for. Also, while I appreciate the sturdy design for hopefully longer use, it makes this box hard to fit into a lunch bag and quite heavy especially when you’re adding an ice pack to keep things cool. Lastly, as city dwellers with somewhat limited kitchen storage space, I wish that these stacked in a more compact way for storing between use. With the trays, the one shell and the two snapping lids, they are quite bulky.

These are a great size and design for young kiddos, come in a nice choice of colors, and fun to pack (as fun as it gets to pack lunches). The compartment sizes accommodate a variety of foods, from fruit or veggies to sandwiches and even liquids such as yogurt or applesauce, thanks to the seal. We used ours daily but eventually, the plastic latches on the case were no match for our preschooler - they broke, one after the other, until the whole lunchbox was unusable. For a kid's lunchbox, I want something that can survive inevitable drops and last for years. The smaller plastic hinges just couldn't take the abuse. And unfortunately, you cannot buy cases alone off the website; you have to buy the whole set, which is a bummer because the trays are fine and I already have enough. My only other issue I've had is the seal getting discolored, funky, and dented with use, but I got some cleaning tips from customer service so it's only an aesthetic issue so far – the smell went away and the seal itself still seems functional.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this its so easy to use. its very sturdy. when i know i have to work a over time, this allow me to pack a nice dinner for myself. the food stays in place in the compartments. i will buy these. very nice not cheapy made either

Great product to fit a kid’s small backpack and keep a lunch and snacks organized. Would be perfect, but the main compartment divider is too loose and can fall out and get lost. Ours did! We bought replacement trays for the dividers, which is OK. And customer service helped. But sell the dividers too! Or someone learn to 3D print them. You’ll make a killing!

We have a daughter with lots of food allergies, these boxes have made it so much easier to pack her lunches and dinners for long trips and doctor appointments. Nothing spills over, keeps everything divided, and we love the versatility with the removable insert.

I have 3 girls and they all love their Bentgo! It provides enough compartments (as they don’t like their food to touch) and the leak proof seals are amazing! They eat a lot of yogurt and it stays in its spot and not on their sandwiches! I would highly recommend this product to all!

Bought this for my 2 year old to bring her lunch to “school”. We love it. I love the size of the compartments and that they are individually sealed when the box is closed- keeps dry contents crisp and totally separate from moist contents. My 2 year old opens and closes it independently.

My daughter lost the divider in Bentgo fresh. I didn’t want to buy a new one just because of a divider. I called the customer service & they were willing to send a replacement as one time courtesy. I’m very impressed with their customer service! One happy mommy!

We have had these bentgo boxes for about a year, they are amazing. Other styles are not even close in terms of spacing and sealing. The top dishwasher feature makes this a every day item for our kids lunches. Love this product and school lunch making would not be the same without Bentgo Fresh!

I bought two of these lunch boxes for my son when he was going to 3rd grade. It helped me pack large portions and also a variety of food. I have packed yogurt in the smaller sections with absolutely no leaks. I’ve also taken the box to my office on many occasions and I love the portion size. Overall a fantastic product that I will buy again.
