monbento - MB Square Black bento box - Large - 2 tier leakproof lunch box for work/school lunch packing and meal prep - BPA free - Food grade safe food containers

I would never buy anything else to store lunches in, bought this for my partner due to a bigger appetite, can fit a well portioned meal in the bottom and fill the top half with fruits. I love that this one comes with an additional smaller strap too unlike the original monbento, so you can take one half in. Can be popped into dishwasher or easily cleaned by hand, great for microwaving, and I've never had a spill from these products in my 2 years of constantly using them.

Fantastic product, love the look of it, very practical, never had any leaks. Being using this with the metal cutlery for over a year and its held up really well. Couldn’t recommend it more.

So I've been using the Monento bento box for about a month now and it's been an excellent companion the entire time! Firstly, out of the box you get 2x boxes, 2x box lids, 2x elastic-fabric bands (in the event you only want to take one of the boxes, or both), a single 'external' lid and a single smaller trench useful to keep foods separate, or to contain things like nuts / eggs. The generous size of these boxes as well means it will feed even the hungriest of people. In terms of water / air-tightness I've only ever had one minor accident which was entirely my fault (I'd pulled the stopper out and then didn't push it back in when I placed it in my bag). I've carried various lunches / breakfasts of thinner to thicker consistencies liquid-wise and I've not had any leaks. Considering I've even had the box upside-down once for an entire morning filled with liquid (alongside solids) and nothing came out I was mighty impressed. Cleaning wise it's also incredibly easy to clean, a bit of hot water and a light wiping and it's good to go again. The only real downside I've found as far is you have to somewhat take care when using a knife, or even a fork in the box. The coating (similar to other microwave-steam-pots available on Amazon) seems to come away without too much effort so I'm not entirely sure what the long-term ramifications will be with this. Ideally you'd only want to carry food that can be used with a fork or to avoid pressure directly on the base of the box. Plastic cutlery, though more wasteful in an eco sense may be better in this situation as well. Considering the price you pay (£25-£30 at time of writing) the Monbento certainly is a premium product with premium qualities. The only thing that lets it down is the fact the coating seems to come away easier than it should, but that could equally be down to me being heavy-handed. Overall, it is fair to say this is probably the best lunch-set I've ever owned and I'd be strongly inclined to buy another if something were to happen to my current set.

Beautifully made. The plastic has a rather velvety quality amount it (?) which i was quite surprised about. I bought this because i love the fact you can shove it in a microwave without the warp factor!!! One last thing there are 2 elastic bands which correspond to whether you take one box or two. I have to say i can get a lot in in one box

Yes, This is what I've been looking for all of my working life! Enough room to put two meals in (I'm a nurse and work 14 hour days). It did leak soup from the side once but I think it's the way I put the lid on in a rush! Very smart, very good.

Had to return it all the way from UK to France which was a VERY EXPENSIVE experience. Unfortunately I found it difficult to separate the boxes as the lugs were practically non-existent and, as it is a large square box, there was nowhere to grip it so as to prise the boxes apart. I could not open it easily at all. Still, for people who do not find this issue a problem, it would be a great size lunch box.

This is a fantastic lunch box. Usable as a single or a double story and can transport saucy foods with no leaks. There is even enough clearance under the lid to store a small spork or napkins. Brilliant!

I was a bit sceptical about spending this much money on what is essentially a plastic box. However it has been really useful. The size works when I want a two part lunch with soup and rice and also when I want to just fill one layer with rice and bits. The little steam vents work well. The bands work to keep everything together in my work bag and the close fit of the lids means there is little chance of spillage even when transporting liquids. Some of the other monbento accessories aren't great, but I don't think you'll be disappointed with their main bento box products.

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!!!

Beautiful and practical.

This bento box is really great! I usually just use one compartment for my lunch, but having two is great for when I pack a larger lunch. It is microwaveable which is nice. Be sure to wash out the first compartment (with the separated) because with the two compartments it can harbor surface mold. I have no complaints with this bento box. It's super cute and very useful!

I've had this bento box for over a year now. Overall, this bento box did exactly what I needed it to, including being cute and motivating me to make meals for myself for work. I came back to write this review because of how much I liked this bento box. Quick summary: * great size for two meals (or one) * never leaks * dishwasher/microwave safe * super cute. size/shape: Each of the two compartments can easily fit a meal. In fact it's usually not maxed out and I have more than enough food. It's nice sometimes when I just need 1 meal and it stacks, so I only need 1. So I can bring 2 meals to work or 1 meal and snacks (like fruit). A caveat is that this won't work for like, a salad or something that takes up a ton of space. For reference, i'm a 190lb human and lunch is often my biggest meal. Honestly the square shape is annoying to pack sometimes, but I also want to bring a lot of food so I don't believe there's a better solution here. On the other hand, it slides perfectly into a fridge. The "lid" doesn't actually do anything but look cute. I created a function though and I bought a camping spoon/fork (bc they're short) and they fit really well between the top compartment and the lid. leak-proof: It's never leaked. The compartments are sealed with the silicon lining and it's never come off unless I wanted it to. This does make it hard to open sometimes but I think the tradeoff is definitely worth it. Don't forget to open the air-vent when opening it (it releases the internal pressure and makes it easier to open). I've never put something as liquid as soup in it, but i've put in plenty of curry, salsa, and refried beans with no problems. strap: the strap holds everything together, which works, but it's not super secure. The silicon lining on each compartment is the thing making sure food doesn't come out. dishwasher/microwave: excellent. plastic will warp a tiny bit over time (think, years) and the compartments won't "click" into place anymore but it doesn't affect functionality.
