This lunch box has been used every day all year and it works very well. No leaks at all and the compartments are perfect for separating main lunch from snacks and dessert. The tray comes out and is very easy to clean. I'll occasionally put that in the dishwasher as well but usually hand wash. The outer shell is also fairly easy to clean when it needs it. That is always washed by hand.

I’ve been sending my son with separate containers for lunch, and the ease of these Bentgo boxes doesn’t get better. It’s durable, easy to clean, and is the perfect compact size. The designs are adorable, and the customer service is responsive and made sure I was happy with the product.

My 3 year old loves this Lunch box and bring it to daycare every day and it has been amazing as there was no leakage. I also love it as it has really great portion sizes and easy to clean. I have always been handwashing the lunchbox but I decided a couple of weeks ago just to put it in dishwasher as the instruction said it's safe to put it in the dishwasher. However, after going through the dishwasher cycle, a strong detergent smell would stick to the lunch box and would not go away even though I soaked it in vinegar or Baking soda. I contacted the Customer service for some advice and they were immediately super helpful and replaced the box with a new one with no trouble at all. Amazing customer service!!!

Our Bentgo has lasted 4 years, and has traveled through customs many times through many states. It’s survived the clumsy hands of a toddler, and the hot beaches of Florida. We turned it into a snack box for Disney, on multiple occasions. 4 years is well worth the money.

Cons: The inner plastic partition can be put on top rack of dishwasher, but I'd recommend only hand washing the outer shell because the silicone will warp. Even with the warping, the box opens and closes easily. Pros: Love the larger portion sizes as compared to other lunch boxes. Love the designs, and the matching back pack is very roomy and has a compartment for the lunch box. Excellent customer service. Will be repurchasing again, with the knowledge of proper cleaning.

The handle started breaking almost immediately. The image below is after about 15 days of use. A much bigger issue for me is the size of this lunch bag. It’s huge. It will fit the Bentgo kids lunch box plus the Bentgo kids water bottle inside it, not even counting the external bottle holder. It would be great for picnics, but it’s unwieldy for a little kid to tote to school. The clip is also way too stiff for a little kid to unclasp. My kiddo’s school puts the lunch bags on a cart to haul to the cafeteria, so the 2-in-1 backpack wouldn’t work. I got the regular Bentgo backpack, and this lunch bag will fit inside it but it takes up the entire bag. I’d love if it were about 2/3 the size.

We are having way too much fun with this. My daughter “oohs and ahhs” when I take out her lunch box. It’s always a nice surprise. I sometimes lay things out and she packs it herself. Choosing which compartment to put things in puts her in a collaborative mode (it’s a win/win)

I own 4 of these lunch boxes and my kids love them! They love to see the surprises inside their lunch boxes! They’re easy to clean and great for my two children who hate for their food to touch. The only issue I’m having, why I didn’t give it a 5star, is it will mold or crack after time. I called and reported my issues and the bentgo team was on it replacing them! We will definitely shop again!

My initial Bentgo purchase was the brights box which I fell in love with. I was very skeptical the box was truly leak proof and could withstand my two rowdy boys. I pack salsa, spaghetti o's, pork and beans, yogurt, and more and the boxes have never leaked. When my boys open the box at lunch, the items are still in their own compartments and do not leak over. I loved my original boxes so much, I purchased the shark and spaceship prints lunch boxes. I have washed my boxes repeatedly and the print holds up, no fading or chipping. It's the amazing original Bentgo box with a fun print for the kids!

We have been using these boxes since my daughter was 2 and in pre-school. She is now 8 and we are just now moving up to the bigger versions of the Bentgo boxes. They have never leaked when closed properly and I love that the trays come out for easy cleaning in the dishwasher. We did have an issue with the plastic piece breaking off where the latch attaches but Bentgo was quick to reply and replace. We are very happy with them and have no problems recommending!
