5.0 out of 5 stars A nice alternative to plastic containers or bags! October 9, 2009

By D. A. Giampa

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

I really love these containers! The Eco (green) is the largest size of the lunchbots. As other reviewers have said it will hold a really large salad and leftovers. The Uno (blue), is perfect for holding a good sized sandwich made with most commercial sliced breads including some of the "homestyle" whole wheat types that tend to be a little wider in shape that your average white bread loaf. The Pico (yellow) is smaller and is a divided container; I wish they offered a version without the divider because I think it would be a perfect size for a serving of potato chips and would keep them from getting smooshed. I cannot comment on the Duo (orange) as I have not purchased it since it is a divided container like the Pico. (For me, having the interior space divided in half limits its capabilities and possibilities.) But here's the really nice part- the Pico fits inside the Uno which fits inside the Eco. So you have 3 containers in the space of one! When you have limited storage space like I do, this is a definite bonus. All of them clean up easily and look great. The lid fits tightly, but not so tight that you have a hard time getting it off. It's a great product and I like being able to have my food in something that isn't plastic or a throw-away.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice lunch container - good for large salads/entrees August 26, 2009

By Lisa (Hartford CT)

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is one of the larger containers from the lunchbots lines. The lid fits well on the container and it appears undentable and that it will be very durable over the long run. I typically use it for a large salad and often put dressing/tomatoes in the salad. No problem with staining of the stainless steel from the contents, and it cleans up easily. It would also be good for larger type of lunch items like pasta or a stir fry with veggies. I was concerned about leaching of nickel and chromium from stainless steel with acidic items, but there are plenty of studies that you can find published on the internet that indicate this is not a concern.

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME, Healthy, and Super ECO Friendly!! These would survive a nuclear blast! February 16, 2010

By P. Curran

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

I love these LunchBots! I ordered 2 of them! They are high quality and it is completely obvious from the moment you unwrap it.

This is the largest size I believe and it certainly holds a good amount! I am going to buy the set of various sizes and will NEVER go back to earth destroying, unhealthy and toxic plastic bags!

The food remains perfect and there is zero alteration of taste. And clean up is a snap!

I love that these are available and that they are pretty reasonably priced - especially when you think of how much you will save by not buying plastic baggies! These will pay for themselves in no time!

But the health benefits and Eco benefits are MORE than worth the price!

I HIGHLY recommend!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent container January 10, 2010

By Love to Cook

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this container so I could compare it with some of the other lunch containers on Amazon. I have a stainless steel lunch container with metal arms that hold the lid on, but it has quite sharp edges, and I like this one better. I send sushi and tomagoyaki and rice with toppings in this, and it works great. It's easy to clean, and doesn't take up much room in a backpack. It's plenty of food if you pack it full of sushi rice and rice toppings. I send a Bora Bora bar on the side, some apple sauce and some veggies, and my son is totally happy. It's a really nice size, and if you want to separate items in the dish, I recommend plastic sushi grass- keeps the various things separated nicely, and I also use small silicone baking cups to hold items as well.

hmmm- it won't let me add a link. So if you want to see the pictures of this and other Amazon lunch containers full of various lunches, google "A year of lunches"- my sopressata roll up was the first link that came up for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars small expected flaw April 21, 2010

By Ying Lu

this canteen style lunch box is very roomy and yes it will fit man-size appetite worth of food. Mine arrived already with chipped lid, small defect, but what can one expect from made-in-china products?!? would like to see better ones made here in america.

1.0 out of 5 stars very disappointed. poorly made. October 2, 2011

By pyh

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

Very disappointed. bought for school kids lunch use. these are very poorly made, lids don't fit well, edges are coarse, and I could barely open the lids myself (forget the kids!). And the divided version were poorly welded and one was not even welded down on one side and was raised up. Returned them all (had bought a set of 4 different ones... the eco lunch box oval 2 pc set is more expensive, but much better made (we ordered those next, after reading from another reviewer that the eco was much better than the lunchbot, and I totally agreed. We kept the Eco.) Not sure why the lunchbots had such high ratings...

5.0 out of 5 stars Lunch Is Good April 8, 2011

By Peter The Plumber

Color Name:Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

These are very nice for something made in China, or as the packaging says "responsibly made in China." Whatever that means, I couldn't find anything like this domestically. The edges are rolled, so no nicks from sharp edges. All the different sizes work well, although I'm still sorting out what fits into which size. Another benefit is that fruit peels can be kept so I can put them on the compost and they don't stink up my lunchbox. The square like ones are not liquid tight, but the round ones are. I can see a lot of uses for these way past just carrying lunch!
