Part of the purpose of this product is to fit a hole in the food carrying market. As a constant lunch packer, I was sick of having to take 5 containers with me to bring my lunch, plus an ice pack. The containers I had, though good for storage in the fridge, were not really travel containers either - so I'd have to be constantly vigilant about not letting them tip or tumble.

The Fit & Fresh container did away with some of the mess and hassle of bringing a packed lunch. Not only does it all neatly fit together, but if I want to pack something a bit messy (like yogurt), I can easily seal it in the little container, which will then be sealed in the bigger container, which, even when flipped around, does not leak. The built in ice pack is incredibly handy. I also found the container sizes to be too big for me (I'm 5'2" and a light eater - I graze all day basically) so I started packing my lunch and snack in it to save even more bringing food to work hassles.

This product isn't perfect though. As others have mentioned, the top lid is thin and warps. Even just washing my lid in hot water by hand it warped a bit. But it hasn't stopped me from being able to snap it back into place on the container. A sturdier lid would be nice, especially considering part of the appeal of the product is keeping your food temperature stable. Still, I'm much happier using this container than I was prior to having it. It has eliminated a lot of packing my lunch hassle, allows me to not worry so much if I can't get my food right to the fridge when I get to work, and has allowed me to monitor my portion control more closely. My only complaint really is I wish the plastics used were a bit thicker and sturdier. Using some TLC, and hand washing, my Fit & Fresh hasn't broken, or leaked, and I would definitely try out other Fit & Fresh products based on my experience with this one.

I bought two of these containers for my kids to take lunches to school. The size is perfect for my middle school and high school age children. The one design flaw is that once the freezer pack is frozen it has expanded just enough to make it impossible for the lid on the larger container to fit tightly once the smaller containers are in place. I wonder if this is not the real problem of the people who have commented about warped lids not fitting.

I packed my daughter's lunch this morning, the first day of school, and could not fit the lid on with everything in it. So I tested a couple of things out and found that the lid fit tightly without the small containers in it but with the freezer pack. The lid also fit tightly with the small containers and an unfrozen freezer pack.

My solution will be to either use a rubber band to keep the top on or make a small strap with velcro to wrap around the container to keep the top on. I find this very disappointing in a product that I would otherwise like very much.

I bought this item at an Albertson for $7.99. I was so excited to find it there since I had seen it online. I love it. It's design is clean yet functional. I packed my lunch and when I got to school it was still cold. Its great that I don't have to carry separate containers because there is 2 small containers within the big one. I even got compliments from my friends at school. The proportion size is just perfect...not so big that you can't even place it in a bag and not so small that you are still hungry. I recommend the veggie bowl and salad shaker as well.

There are lots of lunch boxes out there, and all I needed was something simple that it won't matter if I stain or otherwise destroy through repeated use. Highly recommend if you are trying to keep something fresh for the day and aren't trying to impress anyone. A teenager might not care for it much for the same reasons I really like it.

What a great little lunch box this is! I find the size to be perfect, and being able to separate the various items is such a good idea! Couple that with an included ice pack to keep everything cool, and you have got yourself a winner!

I have been using this everyday since i bought it, works great for every type of lunch i have thrown at it. The little containers are just the right size for one portion or meat or a side dish. i really like the size of this unit, it works perfect for me.

I have not had many problems with the lids that the other reviewers have mentioned. I will say, though, that there is a certain technique to get them on. You kind of have to line up one of the corners, and then glide your fingers around the perimeter to get it to seal. This is because the manufacturer made really small connecting rails for the lid to snap onto. There have been no problems with the material after many cycles in the dishwasher, though i do not use Heat dry because i like save energy. So maybe that is the root of alot of problems.

Other than the lids requiring a special technique, the only other thing i can complain about is the color. I am a guy and carrying around a purple box looks a little feminine. Not that i care, i am more concerned with utility and functionality over looks, but they should offer some other color options.

I was given this item for a birthday present a few months ago. I love it, its so easy to pack my lunch now and just the right porportion sizes. I bought another one to pack my breakfast in, I get everything ready the night before and in the morning all I have to do is slip the ice pack in and I'm ready to go. I highly recomment all the Fit and Fresh products for packing meals that we eat away from home.

This company is just ingenious! This is one of their many great products. It's perfect if you want to store a sandwich or salad with 2 little sides. Plus, it stays cool all day so you don't have to risk putting it in a community fridge.

Just bought 5 for myself and some friends of mine, they saw I use it and immediately fall in love with it. 5 stars!!!!!

Pros. Separated boxs ensure fresh and no interference between different dishes; Iced plate keeps food cold and fresh; All the caps seal perfectly without leakage;

Cons. Minor things like no choice in size; No place for fork, spoon and chopsticks; Hard to wash because so many parts; No handle for carrying;

I like it. Like the convenience and the ice tray insert. Although, it was cheaper at Bed,Bath,& Beyond.

I got this after seeing it in my local supermarket. I wanted to use this as a substitute bento box and it has worked as advertised! I like how you have the separate containers which gives you more options for packing your lunch. I have had no issues with warping but then again, I don't have a dishwasher. Everything locks up tight and food stays cool and fresh.
