Love this snack box. Indeed, it is leak-proof and saves me the time of figuring out portion sizes. My girls ( 3 & 4 y.o.) can easily open them without making a mess.
However, I have noted a number of set backs:
- weight. On it's own, it's light. But when I combine it with food, a filled large yumbox, water bottle and insulated lunch bag it can be a little heavy for my preschooler to carry around. But it is not a big deal since her lunch bag is in her kindergarten pigeon hole most of the time- I just wouldn't pack it if my children were on excursions or travelling outdoors all day.
- washing. Compared to simpler containers, there's a lot more nooks & crannies. But that is something I knew I have to deal with because I want a leak-proof bento lunchbox.
- limited colour range. If only they had pastel colours that matches the large yum boxes.
