monbento - Large Bento Lunch Box MB Square Onyx with 2 Compartments - 57 oz - Leakproof Lunch Box for Work/Picnic/Meal Prep - BPA Free - Microwave & Dishwasher Safe - Black

I have long held the belief that I live with a band of stealthy gnomes who conspire to steal bits and pieces of my tupperware collection. Never leaving a matching lid or container. It is unknown to me whether their covert operations are for some odd business venture or some sort of twisted pleasure. My frustration with this situation comes to a head when I am preparing my daily lunches and I am unable to find containers that will appropriately store my lunch food and fit into my lunch box "soft cooler". ENTER; Monbento MB Square Bento box. With this outstanding creation I am able to thwart the efforts of the ninja like gnomes. This box fits perfectly into my lunch box "soft cooler" with a couple reusable ice blocks, and I can contain a nice sized lunch. I pack one compartment with a salad and use the split compartment for fruit and anything else that I want to keep separate. I eat large portions of protein so I have become accustomed to packing my protein in a separate sandwich bag and then using the top of the bento box as a plate to warm my protein in the microwave. I microwave the main compartments from time to time, but never with the lid on. I clean and dry the bento box at work and band it all together for storage in my lunch box "soft cooler". Either the gnomes have not thought to check my lunch box or they are unable to remove the elastic bands that hold the kit together, but my bento box has remained intact thus defeating the gnomes on this front. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is facing a similar foe, or to anyone who would like a well made self contained option for storing food.

I absolutely adore this! It's large enough for a grown man's needs, it's durable, and it's easy to use and clean. Size: I purchased it for my husband, who needs roughly 3500 calories per day because of the kind of work he does and his hours (10-hour days). He often skips breakfast, so eats mostly snacks along with lunch and dinner. So, as you can imagine, he eats LARGE lunches! We follow the traditional method of Japanese bentos, where you pack it as full and as tightly as you possibly can, and this is enough for my husband to have a full lunch plus a bit left to eat after he clocks out to get him by on his 39-mile drive home to have dinner. Durability: My husband is a total klutz. This man trips going up the stairs, forgets his box at work often, etc. He managed to break not one but TWO Zojirushi Mr. Bentos. This Monbento has managed to somehow survive him, so that, to me, speaks pretty highly of its durability! Plus, if you go to the Monbento website, you can replace every single part of this product without having to buy an entirely new box. Cleaning Ease: Every part of this is dishwasher safe on the top rack, plus it's got a nice, slick material that makes it easy to wipe clean because it's difficult for things to really get a good stick onto it. Now, if it wasn't obvious, this is NOT a thermal bento! You're going to need to put this in a thermal bag if you want something to stay hot or cold. I would highly, highly recommend this bento to anyone who either has big intake needs per meal or who would like the two tiers to put both lunch and dinner in, e.g. a nurse or anyone who works LONG shifts. Definitely not a lunch box for a small woman or a child unless you plan on packing very loosely, or very bulky items.

This is really a nice box. It's quite liquid proof as long as you put on the lid (haven't tried it with soup yet). I like having the flexibility of two compartments. Between the inner lid and outer lid you can fit a flexible plastic fork and napkin. I like how elegant it is in shape, makes me enjoy packing my lunch. ***2 year longevity update*** definitely worth all 5 stars. Still working great and makes a packed lunch look professional in meetings. I've had it leak on 3 times or son, all my fault for not securing the lid. Still its not an alternative to a termus, if your a soup eater but will hold leftover salad dressing in. I love it so much i'm considering getting a second, as I use only one compartment worth of lunch at a time, and have 4 compartments would let me meal prep for 4 days instead of two. Despite is say to only microwave for 5 seconds at a time, i've heated curry up to piping hot 3 minutes and haven't had an issue. The plastic is very resilient and scratch proof, although I only use wood or plastic cutlery.

I really like this bento box! My favorite things about it: -plenty of room! I've packed salad (with tiny containers of dressing etc), sandwiches etc. I often do one container just for snacks and the other one for my main meal at work. -microwave safe (though I personally use it only for cold/room temp) -lots of cute color options -the little separate container that nests inside or you can leave it out Things I don't "love": -the grey piece that seals can be difficult to get off -even though it claims to be dishwasher safe, I don't think that that sealing piece will last if I put it in the dishwasher -I found if I wanted to pack a bunch of little things it was hard to section it off with just the little container they gave. So I solved this by buying some silicone muffin liners to place inside. -i like the look of the band that goes across the bentos to keep them together but if you lose one they won't stay together... I haven't tested if it's leak proof, personally. I'll update the review if it doesn't end up lasting as I've been using it about a month now.

Me parece guay, no lo he usado aún pero me ha llegado con una marca que parece un golpe o roce en la tapa superior. No lo devuelvo porque no me apetece esperar 1 semana a que me llegue pero...no me gusta ver eso. Las dimensiones están muy bien, suficiente para comer bien pero sin ocupar mucho en la mochila, el color si no fuera por las marcas diría que es 100% el de la foto y parece hermético, además me ha llegado 1 día antes...Espero que dure..

Un ottimo contenitore. Esteticamente bellissimo, ma anche funzionale. Lo sto usando al lavoro da tre settimane e ci ho già messo di tutto. E' molto capiente e difficilmente mi capita di riempirlo completamente.E' compatto e sembra più piccolo di quanto sia in realtà come capienza. Temevo che le chiusure non fossero un granché, invece mi sono ricreduta! Il bordo di silicone del coperchio aderisce perfettamente al contenitore. All'interno c'è anche una vaschetta removibile. L'ho usata per metterci la salsa dell'arrosto o un contorno di insalata russa, davvero comoda. Anche l'elastico di chiusura mi sembra molto robusto. Lo consiglio sicuramente!!!

Lid camee out broken out of The box

Me fascinaron ya no se aplasta el sándwich o lo que le mande cabe perfecto, el material resistente, las amigas de mi hija me pidieron el link para ellas pedir porq también les encantaron

Just ordered this MB Square lunchbox\bento box as a replacement for my cheap portioned Tupperware containers. The ones I had were fine, but alas, they didn't work well with a backpack. Primarily, my needs were a segregated container that would fit upright in a backpack, and hopefully look pretty sleek. This product nailed it. Reading the other reviews, I was somewhat pensive. Others had mentioned the build quality so I was curious to see what it'd be like. I ordered it regardless, seeing as though my current lunch containers were as cheap as they get. I was VERY pleased with this item! Came packaged nicely; didn't seem like it came cheaply made. The plastic is smooth and free of faults or discolorations. The elasticized band was thick and sturdy, and everything worked just as it was supposed to. I really liked the fact that they included a smaller band in case you're only packing one of the two levels. There's also a small divider cup which can keep your foods separate and will fit in either container or can be removed entirely. All in all, this was precisely what I was looking for. The only thing that would've made this better would be a set of utensils\chopsticks that fit inside the lid, or perhaps another divider\container for the other half of the box. Either way, I'm pleased with build quality, the look, and the functionality of this product. If you think this might work for you, just do it. It's great!
