We got these hoping we could get away with not having to use an ice pack (because we know they would get lost). Unfortunately they don't stay as cold as expected. The inserts don't stack nicely like the original ones when storing them. Also, I would have liked if they opened completely like the other ones. The pros would be the clasp seems more durable and the compartments sizes are better for bigger kids. It fits nicely in the Bentgo backpack which thankfully has a zippered compartment where we put another ice pack they can't lose. Overall it's a great little lunchbox, I think I just got so used to the old ones it will take some time to adjust.

The problem I had with the regular bentgo is not feeling like ice packs keep the food cold through the thick plastic, so this is the perfect solution. Have used a few times and the kids love them. More space in the compartments than the regular bentgo as well. My only issue is orange things seem to stain the grey area. Once it was carrots and then it was cheddar cheese the next. I assume it’s just a cosmetic issue, but for the price, I would hope they would stay looking nice as well.

Pros: Great size, it really is leak proof, and it looks great, good quality material. Cons: the box is a little heavier than I thought, and after 4 hours in a park with the box under the stroller the grapes were not cold anymore. I’ll try putting the box inside an insulated bag and see if it’ll help.

So handy for trips to the park and restaurant visits for my little guy. We even used it to feed my 11 month old lunch on the airplane. My guy loves having choices with the different compartments and I like the detachable ice pack. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to make their lives easier with a little one on the go.

We like this product. The cold pack stays cold until lunchtime and makes it so much easier to take a packed lunch for school. We do wish that there was a second choice in a bigger size, but it does hold a nice lunch. This size fits in the front pouch of a backpack, so it’s perfect for older kids.

The lunchbox does a good job of chilling, according to my little, but his lunch bag has been a mess when he gets home. If he does not finish his food (yogurt, applesauce, hummus, dipping sauces etc) it leaks out of the compartment(s). The foods mix inside of the compartments as well (ie yogurt mixes into the ketchup). It’s also pretty heavy compared to other lunchboxes.

It's a nice lunch box. I like the layout more than other Bentgo kids lunch boxes, for us the serving compartments are just right for main, fruit, veggie, grain. It is a bit wobbly if you use it without the ice pack. I do like the icepack and the fact it can be remove, saved until the last minute if you want to pack a day ahead. Unfortunately, the ice pack doesn't keep lunch cold all day, I need to add an extra ice pack to the lunch box to have it chilled properly all day. If I pack it for only 2-3 hours the built in ice pack is sufficient.

The chill lunch box is okay. Don’t expect the freezer part of the box to keep things cold for long. I had to order a lunch bag and flat ice packs to make sure it keeps cold. The Bentgo flat ice packs are amazing! They’re still ice cold 7 hours later when my kid gets home from school. The only problem I have now is his backpack(not the bentgo one) is getting wet from the condensation.

I’ve been using bentgo for my daughters lunches for 3 years now. I love the that I don’t have to send her lunch in multiple containers or plastic baggies! I Just purchased this two pack. I love the built in ice pack, it keeps everything nice and chill which is especially great on those hot days.

Love the freezer pack that goes in it and the size of the compartments. Only thing I don't like is that the top does open all the way and lay flat. Kids like to eat their left overs on the way home and its hard in the car because it tips backward when they are trying to eat.
