Promising review: "These snack boxes are perfect for healthy adult lunchables. I’ve been using them every day to bring to work, and they fit the right amount of food with sections to separate food categories. They are also easy to clean and don’t stain. They fit great into my smaller lunch box and have made healthy eating at work so much fun. I have not had any issues with leakage as the lid seals on tightly. They are versatile for many different food options. There is no noticeable smell when you take them out of the package, and they perform exactly as advertised. They have also been durable throughout my day-to-day. Highly recommend if you’re looking to change your eating habits! They make healthy eating fun!" —Mads

Promising review: "This is replacing a lunch bag I've been bringing to work daily for the last 6–7 years. Right away, I could tell it was a much more durable construction with a heavier canvas exterior and thicker insulation. I work a late shift, so I bring my lunch and my dinner to work with me, and it has ample space for both my utensils and drinks to go with it." —Porkchop

Promising review: "I'm in love with my new lunch box. I bought it because I have long days at work and I often eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner there. The lunch box has enough room to hold everything, plus drinks and water. When I'm done, it collapses down to a flat version I can easily shove into my briefcase. It is just perfect." —Terri H

Promising review: "I use this Bentgo product every day for work, and I absolutely love it. I think it's innovative, fun, and easy to use. Plus, it keeps me on track to pack proper lunch portions. I love the fact that it's reusable, and I am not wasting any paper or plastic products! Healthy for me and the environment! It is very sturdy and durable, and I see many years of use out of this. It is of tremendous value, and I'm so happy I found it. Bringing lunch for me has been such a chore, with bringing different little containers and carrying a grocery bag to work being just a pain. Everything fits into one Bentgo box, and I love it. I value good design and craftsmanship, and this, in my opinion, is beautifully done!" —Pietro

Promising review: "Very nice to use for lunch. I can pack my salad here with ease and mix it all together when I’m ready to eat. It’s a beautiful design, easy to find in the fridge, and very lightweight. For the price, it’s worth it. I bought another one, and it’s very durable, as I’ve dropped it before. Great to store your dressing, your salad toppings, and other things! Comes with a cute fork to use! Very easy to clean when you're done, don’t let your food sit in there waiting, add soap and water if you can’t clean it until you get home." —Dennise
