5L Carry Out Lunch Box

Perfect Size - Lunch Box

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

This is an awesome lunchbox with plenty of space for your items. It easily fits a lunch bowl with a drink and a snack. Has a good amount of insulation on the top and the bottom of the lunch box. I would suggest this lunch box for everyday use.

Great quality, wish it was a bit taller.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the quality of this lunch box. The outside is sturdy, so the contents aren’t damaged if you drop it. The insulation is high quality dense foam like you’d find in a Yeti cooler, so the contents stay cold or hot for several hours, and are also well protected. My only gripe is the dimensions. I can fit a single meal prep container inside, and after that there’s not much room for anything else unless it’s long and skinny. A yogurt cup for instance is a very tight squeeze, and a beverage is a total no go. I’d like to see it be a little bit taller/longer on the side where it hinges together so i could put a meal prep container in one half, and drinks or other snacks in the leftover open space.

Lunch Box Awesome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the design. Just needs to be a little deeper to fit the 20 oz. Jar. My first lunch box in many years.

Too small

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A bit smaller than I hoped I wish I would’ve gotten the larger one.

Sweats

So disappointed. On day one this lunch box sweat so much. I carry it in my work backpack and it got so wet on the outside that one of my notebooks was near ruined. I've never had a cooler sweat before but it's very disappointing.

Excellent quality, gorgeous colour. Reliable

Sadly disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Hydroflask ice packs (which melt quickly and I will review separately) and my food did not stay cold for the duration of the day in this box. This was a splurge lunchbox and I had high hopes. While the box feels sturdy, it is not as well insulated as other soft sided (more inexpensive) coolers. I used the lunch box a few times so far, in temperatures in the high 70s (not left in a car, or in the sun) ad I was disappointed. Additionally, the condensation or moisture created leaks through the walls to the outside, making the outside of the lunchbox wet (which I've never had with any other lunchboxes.

Eh

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gets incredibly dirty. Haven’t even used it and it looks like it is years old. Size is very large.

Strong Chemical Smell

I can't rate this on quality or cold endurance because it arrived with a strong smell and I'd be afraid to put my food inside. Would try to air it out but not sure it would qualify as a return if that didn't work. Also, for that price I shouldn't have to try making it usable.

Great size!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect lunchbox. Left in car on a hot day all day and food was still cold with ice packs.
