It is ok

I love the very well instalation. However, it is heavy and bulky for my five year old. I love that I could remove the tray to wash it. It is very well made. Currently, I made accommodations by removing the top part that has the ice pack. He can open it easily by himself, which is a bonus. This is his 3rd bengo because he has difficulties opening the other two.

Perfect size

My son loves the lunchbox , it's very easy for him to open and close it. I love that is the perfect size for him and it comes with the ice pack. My favorite part is that it's dishwasher safe and durable. Also super cute and unique design makes lunchtime more fun.

Not good for toddlers but good for older kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought 2 lunchboxes for my 4 and 9 year olds. My 4 your old could open the thermo by herself so I had to return it. I kept Pt the other one for my 9 year old and he likes it. His food doesn't stay hot by the time he gets to lunch but he doesn't really mind.

Still unsure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the look, functionality, and price point of this lunchbox. However, the warming canister is difficult for my 5 y/o (and even myself) to properly secure, so I fear I'll have a big mess to clean up each day. Also, all original packaging is required for returns, which I no longer have, so I can't return the item, despite it being brand new, never used (or even washed yet).

its cute container and i love the ice pack can go in the top... but its wayyy too difficult for my 5 year old to open. It often gets stuck and is sometimes to hard for me to get the seal to break... he didnt eat lunch today because he was scared to ask for help and couldnt get the seal un done... he wont be using this container anymore. i had high hopes for it but its a miss!

Hi Telsa, <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. <br /><br />We&#39;re sorry to hear the lid on your Benni Box Food Jar isn’t opening. Please try the following methods:<br />Leave the container upside down in the freezer for 2–3 minutes.<br /><br />Submerge the lid in hot (not boiling) water for 1–2 minutes.<br /><br />Use a hair dryer or heat gun on low heat for 1–2 minutes to evenly warm the lid without overheating<br />These steps may help make the lid easier to open.<br /><br />If you need further assistance please send us an email at support&#64;elloproducts.com

Better for bigger kids

It's hard for my kindergartener and myself to open and close this after it's been in the fridge. It creates a seal and you have to yank off the inner container from the top lid. She's also a little too small to be able to close it by herself. It's also too big for the simple modern lunch boxes because you can't fit a drink with it.

Very difficult to open and close

Designs looks good. I mean my kids love the charms. Thats the only reason I wont return it. Its super hard to close especially with the young kids. The jars are so hard to close and open and the lunch box its self its so hard to close. My kids end up bringing home the open lunch box because they can't close it. Even with out the jars inside its hard to close. I wont buy it again.

Skip- don’t buy

Liner gets stuck to the top constantly. I can’t use for school lunches as it’s really hard to use and since the liner sticks, lunch has spilled everywhere. Not worth it which stinks because we were excited to be able to decorate with croc charms as my kiddo wanted.

Don't buy it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cute but does not work properly! Contacted them to return for a refund! Item must still packed in original packing and unused! How on on earth will you know if the product is working?? By just looking at it?????
