Lid hard to remove
Bought this as a solution for the kids school snack. It is surprisingly heavy and the lid is very hard to remove. It was difficult even for adults to remove the lid. I reached out to customer service and they recommended opening the vent lid before opening but it only minimally improved the situation. Unfortunately returned.

Sleek
I love the look of the Bentgo MicroSteel Lunch Box, but I was disappointed that the paint chipped right when I removed the warning label. Other than that, it has a nice design and seems well-made.

Bentgo accesor
I recently purchased a Bentgo Leak-Proof Lunch Box, but unfortunately it arrived without the lid valve. Since I live in Mexico, returning it is not an easy option. Could you please let me know where I can purchase the missing part, or if there is another solution you can offer?”

Difficult to open
This microwave steel lunchbox is great, but is very difficult to open. My second grader always has to ask for help, and it takes me a couple tries. I was hoping it would get easier over time (even for me), but it hasn't, so I'll need to find an alternative for school.
Lunch is very short, can't waste time waiting for a teacher to come help. Aside from that, I LOVE this...

Great Product & Customer Service
I recently purchased two lunch boxes from this store to be shipped to Singapore, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! Items are exactly as described and are microwave & oven safe, which is a huge plus for my busy lifestyle.

Some design flaws
We had the same issue as other buyers with the coating peeling off, which doesn't feel very safe. When I emailed customer service they were super helpful and pointed out that if washed in the dishwasher it can't be heat-dried. They offered to send another. I think this should not be listed as a dishwasher safe product and is best washed by hand, which is what we will do...

Defective product - not dishwasher safe
This would be a good product of the plastic coating did not flake off. If you read the reviews, you will see that the product is defective. Either they need to find a new coating (why does plain stainless even need a coating) or make it clear it is not dishwasher safe because it is obviously not.

Works BUT Coating Peels Massively
Great idea - size is perfect, and nice to be able to microwave it. BUT, we have the black container, and t is very worrisome to see so much of the coating peeling! Very concerned about this getting in our food. So definitely do NOT get the colored containers. I'd get this again but will only get the stainless steel.

Great idea, but the color coating peels ruining it
I love the idea, and I love the product. But the color coatings just don't hold up. If they would just make one without the colored coatings on it, it would be perfect. But all the color coatings just start bubbling up and peeling off after a couple uses. Figured I'd try the gray one thinking it didn't have the coating on it, but it does too. So now that's peeling up to...

Good size and material, but a struggle to open
Love the steel and the design, but it does need a little bit of force even with the air valve pulled. Feels like i would spill contents if I put too much force. Could be easier if there was something like a handle to grip on when opening!!

Really difficult to open
I have bought several Bentgo products, and have been really happy with all of them, until I bought this lunch box. It is incredibly difficult to open, almost impossible. My daughter was not able to use it.

Bad design
The lid is too tight to open for a young kid. The box is quite heavy too.

Difficult to open
I bought these for my child’s lunch box. The lid is very difficult to open. It caused the insides to spill out when using force to open. Also don’t like that you have to remove valve, that will definitely get lost
