Mulberry by Genmert Double Stack Bento Box with Handles, Rust Red

I bought 3 of these in different colors 1 red, 2 plum, for school lunches. Tired of fabric, and little plastic containers etc. I love that it can hold a sandwich with a snack in the top container, and the bottom is roomy enough to hold a frozen capri sun, w/ space for fruit in a bag, a cheese stick, etc.The red one, before it's 1st day of real use, had one of the side clips pop off. I glued it back on, and it lasted about one school week. I use rubber bands to keep it closed. The plum one lasted about a month and a half of school use before the clips popped off. I hand washed all pieces too. I bought this design thinking it would be easier to clip on/off, then pulling off a metal lid like some other bentos, and because of the compartment space.Maybe it's not for kids (ages 5-7), maybe its made poorly, maybe 2/3 of my order was defective. I don't know. I'm still using them, and just popped off the clips. :/

I ended up getting mine at TJ Maxx, because the one I ordered from Amazon came with one of the handles broken off (more than half the price at TJ Maxx!).Not sure why everyone else had issues with the brand stickers...maybe it's from keeping them in the sun too long? Mine came right off without any sticky residue.Anyway, on to the product itself. In case anyone is interested, here are the approximate volumes of each level:- top layer - about 900ml- bottom layer - about 600ml(i.e. about 1500ml)So as you can see, this thing is HUGE. Which is the problem I have with it. I wish it was slightly smaller, because this is way too much food for someone my size (when packed bento-style). I bought it knowing it was going to be bigger than a Japanese bento box for someone my size, because I figured I could pack my breakfast and lunch in it, but after eating breakfast I just end up feeling full past lunch time. Which, I guess is a good thing, but it means my lunch ends up getting thrown away :-(.As a product, I really love it, though. The different compartments, the removable divider, and the silverware are all great. I also love that it's microwaveable and there are separate lids for each compartment. And it doesn't retain smells, which is amazing! But, I'll probably only use it when I'm going to need lunch and dinner because of the size.Edit: After using this for about a month or so, the glue on one of the clasps has come off. You can still pop it back into place and use it, though. Also, the boxes themselves have warped from microwave use (I leave the lids off when heating), even the level that I don't use in the microwave... Not sure what's going on there, since I only wash it by hand and never leave it in the microwave for longer than a minute. But, now the lids won't lock into place...

I've been searching for a long time for the perfect bento box, I'm SO glad I found this one! I was looking for three important factors: 1) Had to be cute (hence the color I chose), but not CUTESY. Classic, and simple looking. 2) Had to be microwave safe & dishwasher safe. 3) Had to be the perfect size. Perfect size as in I wanted two tiers, it couldn't be bulky or over-sized looking; needs to hold both lunch and some small snacks with no empty space because I'm always snacking throughout the day. The 4th factor, which wasn't a breaking point, but was still important to me, was to try and find one that came with silverware! Um, did I hit the jackpot?? Yeah! The handles are so nice, too. The stickers were a bit of a pain to get off, but if you start peeling from one corner, and go slowly, that should help. If you're still having trouble, use a NON TOXIC mix of 2 tablespoons baking soda and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (any kind of oil, really), smear it on the stickers, let it sit, then work on removing the stickers. This should help.

I bought one of these a few years ago and it was awesome but it recently broken when I dropped it. So I ordered this one and it not as good. Not sure if this is the old design or new design but the old one had a piece of plastic between the top and bottom compartment. With this one when I open the pieces the top part has sweat all over the bottom and so you can't sit it down anywhere since the sweat and other food slime is on the bottom of the top part. The second problem is that the stickers are everywhere and a pain to get off.

Even if you're not into bento lunches this makes a great lunchbox. It keeps everything in one place and the bottom tier is quite roomy. The color of the Eggplant bento box is spot on, the shade is the same on screen and in person. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars was because of its sturdiness. It's a decently sturdy box but the handles feel flimsy so I never actually hold the box from there and will instead pack it into my tote. The side snaps are also flimsy, I thought I had broken my bento box when one of them snapped off completely. Fortunately, I was able to snap it back on. All in all this is a good lunchbox for a college student or an older person.

This lunchbox is a good size, has multiple compartments and snaps together nicely. The bottom compartment is quite large & the top compartment has a little separator so you can keep your cuisine apart if you want. I don't recommend using it in the microwave very often because it would probably bubble & peel (it's only plastic after all) & I don't recommend cutting anything inside the container, so if you're taking a steak or something, cut it up before you put it in there. The bento box is dishwasher safe - top rack only.

To great bento box for an adult or older child. This holds a lot of food. The options are endless. I have silicone cupcake liners that separate fruits and veggies, etc. it would be nice if you had the option to use each compartment separately, but I really like my bento.

I liked the clean lines of this bento box. It wasn't airtight. I chopped some onion to carry to work for a potluck event. My refrigerator smelled like raw onion for days. After being exposed to the slightest heat, the trays wouldn't remain flat. They are permanently warped.
