They don't pop open, the contents don't spill & they still look like the day I bought them (maybe 5+ years ago).

Questions

Can I pack yoghurt or dressing?

Not loose, as this box isn't leakproof. Pack wet food in an airtight dipper inside the box.

Is it dishwasher safe?

Yes.

Can it go in the microwave?

No. Stainless steel can't go in the microwave. Warm the food first, then pack it.

Will it dent if it's dropped?

A hard drop can leave a small dent, but it keeps working for years.

Bought this for my hubby and he loves it. Fits an awesome amount of food without be huge and cumbersome. Everything fits together really well I love that you can fit a sandwich and the snack box in the top layer easily. Beautiful quality and it all fits together snugly without being hard to open. Fabulous lunchbox!

Best Lunch Box Ever

Love these steel tins . They hold lots , never get smelly no matter how or what you put in them. Clever design that allows for different layers. Then the nifty little dressing container! My second purchase so hubby and so have one set each . They even come on holiday with us in our caravan! Perfect if you want to get a take out to avoid plastic. Who wants to eat hot food out of plastic - no thanks!

Delighted you love our steel tins! They're odor-free, versatile, and perfect for travel. Thanks for choosing sustainability and being a loyal customer! Enjoy your plastic-free meals.

Great lunch box

Great lunch box. Small airtight containers seal well. We are looking forward to the return to stock of the larger airtight containers. Quick delivery. These lunch boxes last forever. Some students have had them all of their school years.

Good lunchbox

Good practical compact design.
Space becomes limited by two layers joining into each other.
Sealing clips could do with being more robust, we had to bend one to make it seal properly.

Great lunchboxes for 7 and 10 yr olds

These are great lunchboxes, I was worried they would be too hard to open or too heavy, but the kids manage just fine. Highly recommend.

Sturdy, durable, and good lay out but a bit heavy and hard to open for a 6 year old

I'm mostly happy with our Meals in Steel lunch box. It's a great size and shape to carry our usual lunch items, easily fits a sandwich, 2 small pieces of fruit, a muesli bar and something for the snack container e.g. blueberries, cheese or crackers. However, the 6-year-old finds it hard to open, although this may improve with time and use. And it definitely makes their school bags heavy although this may be unavoidable with steel. Overall, mostly happy with the purchase.

Good sized box, a little tricky to open

Decent lunch box size with the 2 levels. I can fit quite a bit inside as it has no compartments. The snack container is definitely handy for small loose items. Quite hard to open though. I bought for my kid but he can't open it so he's ended up with the large leak proof bento lunchbox which is smalle. I now use this box for family lunchs instead as I can fit 2 kids lunches inside.

Love this product

Although it took some time for lunch boxes to arrive they were worth the wait.
Im glad we purchased the large as its just the right size for school lunches.
Easy care and easy to use. I am a little dubious about the catches.... and how long they will last. But so far so good
