I am quite happy with this lunch box. It's deceiving, in that it really doesn't look that big, but it fits a ton of food. The first day I used it, I packed it to the brim, and couldn't finish everything. My only complaint is that you can't pop it in the microwave. Didn't even THINK of that when buying it. But nevertheless, it's a solid, well-made product. And the bamboo cutlery is quite nice. Functional and attractive.

This is a perfect set. For me it holds enough for 2 meals. And I am an athletic 6'2 270lb man. This set is very easy to clean and attractive in the office refrigerator. It has 2 large sections. Either which could hold a sandwich and the other can hold soup, salad, pasta, ect. And there is a smaller container that is snack-pack size. It's perfect for dried fruit, nuts or salad dressings. The entire unit has been water tight for me (good for soups). Now I can bring healthy foods anywhere I go. This item is a must have!

Wonderful product. My girls take them to school everyday. My five year old enjoys opening it and taking out the parts. The bottom can fit sandwiches nicely and I particularly enjoy how something cold can be separated from something at room temperature. The best part is how I can easily stick whatever is left over from their school day in the fridge.

I bought two of these sets and my husband and I both love them!! They're stylish and fair trade... you can't get any better than that. They're dishwasher safe too!! My husband can now take his lunch to work and not waste any bags or plastic wrap. We love this innovative product :)

I have not used this item yet, but it is way cool looking--retro yet modern--looks functional and it is compact. Like the looks of the bamboo utensil set--also retro and modern at the same time.

I purchased the Stainless Steel Bento for my husband who is somewhat of a klutz. We recently had one that was made of Melamine that he loved but broke several times. He is in love with his new one as it is totally unbreakable and more fashionable for a man to carry. I would buy this for my friends and family. I only wish it came in a larger size.

The lunch kit has a great size and fits more food than I can eat. The bottom is great for a good sized salad and the top for crackes, humus,sandwich... just about anything else. It's nice looking too... and washes easily... Just a little soap and water and they're good to go! The Utensil set is great too... good sized and feel solid.. not flimsy.. I like the linen carier too.

Fun lunch kit - large enough for a good size salad and fresh fruit / veggies.

The utensil set is a wonderful gift. We love them. We even take them to asian restaurants so we don't have to throw away their chopsticks after we use them. We just take ours home and wash them. They're beautiful, very sturdy, and fit comfortably in your hand. They go wonderfully with the Stainless Steel Carrier , which fits perfectly in a Built NY® Gourmet Getaway - Large Insulated Lunch / Tote Bag to keep your food hot or cold when going back home, etc. Our Stainless Steel Carrier seems to be perfect for leftovers for two, supply each person with a separate compartment.

The lunch kit is very useful but kind of clunky. I love the bamboo untensils and just keep them at work for daily use. I don't put soupy items in the kit because I am afraid it might leak. Great for sandwiches, snacks and stuff.

Loved the Carrier it is great though I wish it had three tiers, but it is a nice compact size. The bamboo set is not great. The spoon is way too shallow and the fork is odd in the mouth and the Knife? not sure it that is supposed to be a knife...or what...doesn't cut anything that I can think of maybe cake? Also it seems like a good idea but in practice it is a pain to carry around the long knit cover the silverware always falls out and gets dirty. Much prefer stainless steel pocketknife silverware, it's compact and won't fall all about the place.

Everyone should own this waste-eliminating kit. I carry it with me into restaurants so that whatever I've not finished can be popped into the stainless steel container(s). The utensils have a home in my handbag -- until needed -- and the chopsticks are a brilliant addition. Very nice!

Love having a "tiffin" type container, but wish the tops sealed tight, as with traditional tiffins. Still love using it and especially the bamboo flatware I keep in my purse. No more plastic ware; natural and environmental.

I love this product! The utensils are smooth (I wish the spoon were a little deeper) and easy to carry around. This set has gotten me to bring lunch to work every day.

i actually bought this set directly from the manufacturer because I thought I only wanted the to-go ware chopsticks, fork, knife and spoon. Well, I ended up buying the whole kit and kaboodle and am glad I did. I'm the envy of all my colleagues. The chopsticks transport easily and people are always asking me where I got the. I point them to reusablebags and tell them that they can buy the chico and acme bags that I carry on this site as well. Great option for the person wanting to leave a small footprint. Only thing you need now is the cotton sling that goes with this set. That would make it complete. Otherwise, this is a great option.
