I purchased this in conjunction with the Fit & Fresh Cool Coolers Slim Lunch Ice Packs, and both items have worked really well. The only reason for the four stars is because it's not quite up to par with the lost lunchbox I was replacing this with. I purchased the expandable lunchbox Costco offered a year or two ago, and can't seem to find an equal replacement. However, along with the ice packs, this is able to maintain a cold temperature for veggies, cheese, and meats (like deli meat I'd roll up and put in their lunch). I pack the occasional salad in my daughters' lunches using the Cool Gear Collapsible Salad Storage Kit (which I LOVE), and while the Costco expandable lunchbox held it perfectly, it's a very tight fit in this lunchbox, and I'm not able to pack anything else into it, like her water bottle. If it's salad day, however, this works really well. It also holds Isosteel Va-9549q 8 Fl. Oz. Stainless Steel Vacuum Bottle perfectly if you lay it horizontally in the lunchbox.

This lunch box is sturdy and perfect for kids! Unlike another lunch box I ordered, it holds its shape and feels like it's made from quality material. It has an outside zipped pocket which is great for untinsels and napkins and the main compartment is spacious. Only negative is the inside is white which I'm sure will be stained in no time, but overall this is a great lunch box.

The lunchbox is great, fits great lunch and snacks and has a pocket for an ice pack. B aware that the inside of some of them (like the one that I got) is white, it stains really easy and might be trashed by the end of the school year. Will keep buying it tho :)

My son needed a new lunchbox. He is really into camouflage so I thought this was cute for him. Previous amazon reviews seemed good so I went ahead and ordered. I'm glad I did, because this is a very good quality lunch box at a decent price compared to what I found on store shelves. It's far more spacious then the lunch boxes my older kids have and seems better quality as well. I pack a pretty big lunch and everything, including his water bottle, fit perfectly. We are well into the school year and this lunchbox is holding up very well from daily use. It cleans very easily, just a quick wipe daily and on the weekends I use hot soapy water. My son loves it and I'm happy with my purchase. My daughters lunchbox of a different brand is falling apart and I'll replace hers with one from the brand.

This is not our first little lunch box from this company. As our babies grow and are ready to be carrying around some snacks with them we get them one of these soft linch boxes. We now have three lunch boxes and in a couple of years we will be getting a fourth.

I've seen a couple of bad reviews on these lunch boxes so that drove me to write my own review. I don't know how people are having problems with these lunch boxes. Our kids use theirs daily and we haven't had an issue with any of them yet. The zippers still work fine, even on the older ones. We have two that are three years old and just recently got this third the other day.

The zippers zip well, no hang-ups or the zipper getting stuck. The interior of the lunch boxes aren't falling apart. The interior plastic is still holding up well and doesn't have any cracks of any sort. All of ours has the mesh material on the inside of the lunch box to further hold something up against the lid. The exterior of the lunch boxes is not exhibiting any problems. No loose seams or material breaking down. The material is holding up fine with them using these outside and inside on a regular basis.

You can put a little ice pack in these lunch boxes and it will keep stuff cool through the day. It's definitely not going to work as good as a famous roto-mold cooler, but that's not what we were buying these for. We rarely use an ice pack in the lunch box. The ice pack obviously does take up additional space and we are usually toting items that can be stored at room temperature.

We appreciate there being so many color and design choices to choose from. We can now easily distinguish which lunchbox belongs to which child.

The storage area is plenty big enough to hold a sandwich, small juice, and a ziplock of fruits and vegetables. It's a lunch box for a child. I don't expect to hold a five-star meal in these things.

If anything changes with these lunch boxes I will definitely update this review. Like I said, we are already using two of these daily for the last three years without any problems. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I usually reply within a day.
