Super expensive yet the construction feels super flimsy like cheap plastic Easter eggs. The pieces have a hard time connecting together. It's possible to latch the box closed even though the cold pack insert and the food tray aren't connected perfectly, which means there is a gap for soft foods like yogurt or applesauce to spill out and make a huge mess. Would never buy again.

My children had a non ice pack model that lasted for 3 years and was used daily. We purchased these for this school year. It is difficult to close and open. My first grader was able to independently open and close the other model and now she has to ask for help daily. Not the independence I want to foster. I appreciate that the ice pack can be reused, but I wouldn’t purchase again…especially for the price.

Bought this for lunch days when I send in a thermos/hot lunch and wanted an alternative to Ziploc bags and, in that sense, they're perfect. Only drawback is I put a fruit from a fruit cup with a bit of juice on the left compartment and crackers on the right and the juice got the crackers soggy. So now I just line with plastic wrap before I close. On the plus side, no juice leaked out of the container into our bag. Overall a great purchase with many uses!

Love the compartments of this lunch box, however I wish the ice pack stayed cold longer. We live in a warm climate and it won’t stay cold long if outside. Even in the AC it’s only slightly cold when he comes home from school, he says his lunch is cold at lunchtime so 4 stars from me.

We love this bentgo box and snack box. It keeps lunches cold until ready to eat. And very easy to use. The only issues we've had with it is the biggest compartment barely holds a sandwich and if you put yogurt or applesauce in it, it will spill out so just keep those things in their original containers. Other that that we love the product we received.

We like the bigger compartments than the other models. Harder to put the pieces together and close the lid though. Hand washing every time takes more time than putting in the dishwasher. Otherwise it’s a great product. Could Bentgo put a lunchbox menu list/cookbook for adults and children? Their promotional photos look so appetizing!

It’s difficult to get the tray in and out to put the ice pack in. Which is a slight inconvenience and may get easier with time. The bigger issue is it’s pretty difficult to open and close for my 3 year old. Which leads to spilled and mixed food, defeating the purpose of buying a leak proof option, my 5 year old is capable of closing properly- so definitely possible just difficult for small hands

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!

As someone who wants to bring small amounts of several things for lunch, this box is the perfect size! I have both this and a Bentgo Kids, and I rotate between them. It might be marketed for kids, but as an adult with a smaller appetite, I find this to be a better size than the larger ones.

My toddler uses it for his daycare lunches and it's perfect. Compact enough for him to lift, which he likes to do, as it makes him feel important. I like that the compartments are fully separated and you don't have to worry about food leaking under those movable walls that some other bento boxes have. It's also super easy to clean. Has held up nicely for us so far. Will purchase another. This is probably too small for a child who is more than 7 or 8 years old. I'll upgrade to a larger size then.
