LunchBots Duplex Insulated Lunch Bag - Dual Section Design Fits Lunch Box for Adults Women Men, Bento Cinco Perfectly - Roomy Thermal Lunch Bag - Pink

This lunchbox is sort of amazing. I VERY rarely write product reviews, but this one is a must. I'm a widow and (now single) mother of a 2 year old and a 4 year old. Mornings are busy, and money is tight. Both my kids are ridiculously finicky about the temperature of their food. I often reheat their food more than once during any given meal. When my daughter was barely a year old, she would hold up her bowl of half-eaten rice cereal and say "Hot! Hot!" 🙄 Suffice it to say that I have had a very difficult time packing lunches that they will actually eat. I tried many insulated lunch boxes in an attempt to keep some things hot and some things cold. Only when I found Lunchbots was my problem solved. The bottom compartment gets an ice pack, along with their fruit, veggies, yogurt, string cheese, pudding, fruit/veggie pouch snacks, etc. Sometimes I put a small, insulated container of frozen grapes in the bottom compartment, and any that go uneaten are still completely frozen at the end of the day. Then, in the top section I can put a thermos of cheese ravioli, sliced up hot dogs (bun on the side, of course), hot pizza, a rice dish, chicken strips, a cooked vegetable, etc., along with whatever room temperature items like goldfish, pretzels, dried fruit, cereal bars, etc. Even with a very hot steel thermos in the top, and a frozen solid ice pack in the bottom, everything actually stays the right temperature. For my picky kids, this is a lifesaver! My 4 year old son doesn't even care that it doesn't have spiderman on it. He calls it his "special lunchbot". I purchased a second one for my daughter when she started daycare full time. Absolutely worth the money. I also highly recommend the reusable stainless steel food containers made by lunchbots. They have snug, flexible, silicone lids - which means chips and berries don't get crushed when removing the tops. The MIRA containers are great, but the force required to pry off the tops means pushing down on the center of the lid and therefore on the food inside. Again, really worth the investment. They're very easy to clean, MUCH better for the environment, contain no toxic plastics, and virtually indestructible. But most importantly, I have saved literally a small fortune on ziplocs! I do with the lunchboxes could go in the washer, as my son's looks like he dragged it through the mud after 8 weeks of summer camp, but it's hardly an issue. Great company, great products.

Works just fine! Good size.

I purchased this bag for my 12 month olds lunches for Mothe’s Day Out, and I use it with a lunchbot box. I put an ice pack in the bottom compartment, box on top, and it keeps what needs to stay cool, until it’s time for her to eat. I like that there's an adjustable strap too. Sometimes I need to carry it over my shoulder, and my daughter will be able to carry it 1 day too. This lunchbox is made very well, and quite durable! We have dogs that are always curious about what is in their sisters lunchbox, and they will pull it off of the counter, and it survives!

Good lunch bag, although I had hoped for better materials for the price, and since i think the quality of their lunchboxes are really good. I wish it would have been made of stiffer material, notably the top portion, that way it would keep its form and i can pack a fruit like a banana without worrying of it getting smushed. Otherwise, if you have lunchbots lunchboxes, those will fit in there nicely. I have the medium sized lunchbots and i stick one of them in the bottom compartment together with a frozen pack if needed to keep things cool, then throw a small water bottle on the top compartment with either a peice of fruit like a banana or another medium lunchbot.

I absolutely adore this lunchbots bag! The compartments are roomy enough to nicely fit my lunchbots containers (which I also adore), a banana or apple and plenty of room for a water bottle as well. I feel there is plenty of room to pack more which will be perfect for my family as we are routinely out of the house all day long with a need for additional snacks. I love that the bag stands upright, a necessity with bento style boxes because you want your lunch to still look nice when you open it up. The size is perfect for myself to use and also for my two children. I ordered this bag to check it out first after not being able to find exactly what I wanted in other lunch bags. I found I really appreciate the details of this bag, the gray has more of a linen high quality look to it, the pink is beautiful too, not exactly hot pink, not exactly fuschia, the zippers have a tagging detail that compliments the overall high quality look. Another detail that I love is that in addition to the comfortable handle there is also a removable shoulder strap, the removable aspect was something I truly appreciate because in my case it is unlikely that I will use a shoulder strap but knowing that I can snap it on should the need arise but not have to have it in the way if I'm not using it is a definite bonus for me. Overall I am very pleased with this bag and will most definitely be purchasing two more, one for each of my children.
