My son is special needs going into kindergarten. We werre told he needs to know how to manage his lunch alone (part of the progress for the special needs class). He has been practicing with his Bentgo and its working out perfectly! He only neds to open one container and then he can choose which foods he wants to eat. Its very convenient!

This is my first time purchasing the bentgo with the built in ice pack and now I wish this was the only kind we had. My kids have an easier time opening it, it keeps food colder, and it fits in their lunch bag better. Really great quality and easy to clean.

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.

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.

We haven't used these a lot yet, my daughter starts school in Sept but we got them for snacks on the go from daycare to soccer. So far we really like them, the only thing I noticed is they are quite heavy so I'll be trying the styles without the icepacks as well. The colour is nice, the compartments are good size and there is no leaking.

I bought this to send my toddler to school with snacks, and it works perfectly--I'm able to pack several days' worth of snacks. It's also easy to take the tray out and clean. I do wish it would fit in the lunch bag with the lunch box, but that's not a design issue with the box.

These are so nice for our kids. We pack a lot of lunches and this box allows us to pack multiple items and only dirty one dish. Love the ice pack being inside of it but the reason for 4 stars is that it doesn’t keep everything as cold as our kids would like it.

My 2nd grader loves this bento box. The ice pack part is nice. Of course, you have to remember to put it in the freezer the night before. I do wish the compartments were a little deeper. It can be hard to close even with a small mandarin orange in it.

I’m so happy with this product! I only wish the main course section were a little bigger because even little kiddos eat a lot & sandwiches are a regular part of lunches. Overall, though, I would recommend it for the ice pack & multiple compartments that have made me more creative in my packing. I also LOVE the snack box. Please make more that have ice trays!

I got one of these for each of my kids (ages 6 and 8) and it's so much easier to pack a lunch that they'll actually eat at school without having to put things in individual containers or ziplocks inside a lunchbox. Everything stays in place and looks yummy when they open it up at school. The optional ice pack is really handy for keeping fruits and veggies fresh on warmer days.
