It's SMALL on my review.

Pros:*Easy open for kids, ages 2 and up*Bright color (good for kids with vision loss*Stickers were fun for them to put on*Fits in lunch boxes used to keep it coolCONS:*Definitely doesn't fit a sandwich in there unless you cut them into miniature pieces (such as with mini cookie cutters)*Tray doesn't come out, which would have made cleaning even easier.Overall, it's an "okay" box for our needs, but definitely could have been bigger to fit more of a variety of food options.

Pros
  • 100% Satisfied with quality
Cons
  • My kid can not open and close by herself.

Good for Kids for my opinion

Ordered this lunch box for my kid, it is ok for kids as you can only keep small portions. Best thing is it doesn’t leak and the food will not get mixed up.Had issues with hot food, when the lid is closed with hot food then it will become tight and hard to open for kids.

Pros
  • BONUS Bento Tips eBook for Moms – Each of our kid’s bento box containers also comes with a complimentary 100-page Tips + Eats eBook written by the mom and award-winning mindful eating author who founded kinsho. Care: WASH BY HAND PLEASE ~ DO NOT put in dishwash er or seals will change shape and lid will not shut.  Rinses easily by hand.
Cons
  • After a few uses it won’t close and then if you can get it close the latches break off and it pops open.

Cute but didn’t work for us

The Bento box is very cute, I got it to keep my picky daughter’s lunch warm but unfortunately it was cold by lunch at camp so returning. Did not try to use it for cold items as she doesn’t eat many things cold, hard to imagine it staying a good temperature for long though….but the box did not leak!

Pros
  • Compact ECO-FRIENDLY Control – The three individual metal sections makes it easier to monitor how much your child is eating, expand the variety of their lunch options, and helps you maintain more positive control over their growing appetite. Holds 2-2/3 cups/18 oz/550 ML.
Cons
  • Insulation is not very effective

Cons
  • Limited usefulness beyond lunch

Beaware poor quality product

I purchased this product on aug 1st week. I only used 2 times, as my kid is going parttime preschool didnt have a need to use this box. Now, I couldnt even close the box. Very wierd, never saw such an issue with lunch boxes. Please read other negative reviews as well before purchasing this product. Not worth the price.

Pros
  • Bento Boxes
Cons
  • Not suitable for adults

Does not keep food warm

Bought this purposely to keep food warm for my little one but it sucked at the one job it's supposed to do. And the dimensions are off. It's thicker than the pictures show.

Pros
  • Reusable container helps save money on food storage
Cons
  • May not fit certain utensils or utensil holders

Not recommended For young kids

This Bento box is absolutely horrible to open for young children in elementary school! My daughter came home crying that the teacher told her to tell her mother to never send that box to school with her again! I sent it today with hot food in it and messaged my good friend who is a teacher at the school to help my daughter at lunchtime open the box. My friend message me back and said that is the worst box to open, that it took her forever and she almost broke her fingernails! portion size is…

Pros
  • Exclusive MINI MONSTER Design – This adorable little lunch box for very young kids features a fun, brightly colored monster theme in blue, orange and green.

Cons
  • Difficult to clean

It’s a cute waste of money

I bought this for my toddlers lunch at daycare and after one use I realized I should have bought something different. It’s a cute idea just not practical.

Pros
  • BPA-free and non-toxic, making it safe for children
Cons
  • May not fit larger food items

Latches pop out rendering useless

The latches started to pop out from the lid shortly after we started using. They pop off even when latching the lid closed on an empty container so it's not an overstuffed issue. Appears that the seals are either oversized or not well aligned.

Pros
  • Insulated to keep food warm or cool multiple hours
Cons
  • Hard to pack multiple lunches in a single bag

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cute but hard for a child to open

It is a cute design but I got this for my 6 year. If you put in very hot food it will vacuum seal so tight adults will have a problem opening it. It also doesn't keep hot food hot for more then a couple hours unless you buy a insulted lunch carrier.

Pros
  • Leakproof lid prevents spills and messes
Cons
  • Limited flexibility in terms of portion sizes

Does not do well in dishwasher

Lunchbox is super cute but it stains and expands when washed in the dishwasher. Used it for about a month and had to throw it away since it was getting hard to close.

Pros
  • 1.2 pounds
Cons
  • Can only hold cold or room temperature foods

Became useless after two months of use

Whennn na I purchased the lunch box, it looked like a leak proof and proper size for my kid to use. The flaps to open seemed easy but after two months of use, realized the lid kept getting harder and harder to close and the flaps to close kept coming out or broke open. It became very difficult to just close the box later. At school, my kid started having trouble to open it and ended up wasting most of his lunch time trying to open it and to get help. And now, both the flaps broke open and it is

Pros
  • Perfect for packable lunches during travel and adventures
Cons
  • Prone to rusting if not properly maintained

Keeps food warm - my new review

Bought it for my 4.5 y.o.Broccoli, sausage/meat, mac& cheese/rice - is what I usually pack for her at 8:20am (I pack it really hot. Hotter than what i normally give her to eat).By 12:00 it's still warm, as per what my daughter says.The portion size is perfect for 4.5y.o. girl.If your child EATS :) - then probably you should size up.

Pros
  • Provides a healthy and space-saving solution for lunchtime
Cons
  • Hard to fit into a refrigerator or cooler

Good compartmentalized box

The compartmentalized model is good. It is possible tk give multiple options. But the capacity of main big compartment is little less. I feel it should be slightly bigger.

Pros
  • Lightweight for easy carrying
Cons
  • Not good for keeping hot foods warm

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Nearly impossible to open

I filled it with hot water to prep the box for a hot lunch for my child. When I try to open it again, it took me several minutes prying it with a butter knife to open it. The suction from the hot water was so strong and no way to release it. I really wanted to like the box since there is no other option for insulated stainless steel for small children. Their recommended solution of putting a piece of parchment/wax paper is a waste of time and money; no to mention I don't want the food in…

Pros
  • Easily carried in a backpack or tote bag
Cons
  • Can be difficult to fit in a lunch bag with other items

It is good for my opinion

Very pretty, easy to clean. One thing to be mindful of with this box is it seals pretty well specially with warm food packed. So when kids open them in school the lid has tightened due to condensation. My toddler needs help from her teachers opening her box. This should not be an issue when she grows slightly bigger or with older kids. But in all I love this box. So does my baby girl

Pros
  • Easy to open for little fingers
Cons
  • Not airtight

After 5 uses it barely closes

I was really hoping this bento would work out, it is perfect size for my 3 year old's snacks and it is leak proof (so far), but after only 5 uses it is very hard to close. An adult can do it, but a kid cannot. I never put in the dishwasher, always hand washed it so I have no idea why it has happened, but I can't send a box to school that he can't use himself! Can't recommend this product :(

Pros
  • Designed with toddlers and small children in mind
Cons
  • Easily dented or damaged

Perfect for my twins!

I have twin boys that are fairly good eaters. Initially I was surprised at how small the container was. BUT. I like the fact it’s compact so that I can fill up the entire space and the food won’t shake too much. I know even with them throwing their backpacks around, they’re not eating jumbled up food for lunch! Whoever designed this bento box must’ve been someone like me!

Pros
  • Convenient for taking leftovers to work or school
Cons
  • Limited portion sizes can lead to food waste
