I like the look, but that's about it!, Jan 25 2011

I was let down by both the material and size of this lunch box. I read reviews saying it was small, but I eat relatively light and thought it shouldn't be an issue (I'm not bringing a four course dinner or anything!) I was wrong however, I could barely fit a small salad, regular size sandwich, and a yogurt, let alone an ice pack in it. The material is nice for placing in a backpack but this, in my opinion, greatly affects how well it keeps the food cool. My icepack had sufficiently melted to ~ slightly cool by the time lunchtime rolled around. I would recommend for a child's lunch but that's about it.

Just enough...perfect, Sep 5 2010

This is a perfect size lunch box for a middle school child with no extra room in his backpack. Well made, insulated, simple design. Came with nesting fork and spoon, which was a bonus. I also use LunchBots, which fit perfectly into this. Check size, if you are going to put an insulated thermos into this. It is a tidy package, not a big lunch bag.
Looks like a keeper. Will watch the durability of this item over time.
I would buy this again.

Great "manly" boys' lunchbox will fit a "Laptop Lunch" bento set, Sep 20 2010

My son's school has strict policies about graphics (cartoon characters, logos, etc.) on things brought to school. Most of the lunchboxes sold in stores are either covered in commercial images or really plain insulated bags. My son was disappointed that he couldn't choose a more decorated lunchbox. Finding this "man's" lunchbox online was a really lucky break because he is proud to have something so grown up.
It also happens that this is the perfect size to hold a "Laptop Lunch" brand bento box container, plus a thin ice pack like the Fit N Fresh ones or the multi-ice-cube type made by Coleman.
School's only been going for a week now, but this is working out perfectly, keeps his food cool until noon, wipes clean each night, and perfectly holds his favorite bento set. I'm very pleased with it.
