Zojirushi Mr. Bento Stainless Steel Lunch Jar

Over All Rating Reviews :

I bought this for my daughter's school lunches. It works very well overall. The only complaint I have is that the compartment for hot liquids could be bigger and sometimes that compartment is hard for little hands to twist open. Otherwise, it is a great item and it has been very useful.

What a huge disappointment from a company that makes the best rice cookers in the world - my mistake for thinking they could make a good Bento kit. This think leaks like it has no seals in the containers (can't imagine one is actually designed for soup) and it is a pain to clean all the leaked fluids after use. I highley recommend that you do not buy this if you plan to use it for any food that might have even the slightest amount of liquids. I was fooled once . . .

Ever since the reports about the risks of chemicals leeching from plastics that have been microwaved, I've been wary of carrying microwaveable lunches to work. I was very happy to find this lunch jar. I chose to buy the Classic Lunch Jar instead of the four-container Mr. Bento because I wanted the larger volume, but I have found that the Classic Lunch Jar can hold more food than I can eat (I'm a woman who can put away a large prime rib for dinner, but not in need of huge quantities for lunch). The middle container for the Classic Lunch Jar, which stands about 3.5 inches deep and 4 inches wide, is cavernous, and can alone hold more than a modest dinnerplate's worth of food.

I've found that putting soup into the bottom container is essential to keeping the middle container hot. It acts as the heat pack for the middle container. I usually heat canned soup in the morning in a pan, and pour it near-boiling into the container, and drop it into the bottom of the jar to start off. After 4 hours, the soup will still be too hot to eat!

Then, for the middle container, I heat up some leftover starches (rice, potatoes, etc.) and some sort of entree. I put the starches on the bottom, and pile the entree on top. The lid of the middle container has a hollow space built in to insulate it from the top container. The food in the middle container is still quite hot after 4 hours.

The top container should be reserved for something that would be eaten at room temperature. I think it was designed that way, judging by the pictures on the packaging. I can't read Japanese, so I was only able to guess. The picture shaded the jar from red to orange to yellow to white, starting from the bottom, which accurately corresponds to the temperature of my food after 4 hours (red being hottest, white being room temp).

I've tried putting an entree in the top container, to separate it from the starches, but it had cooled to near room temperature by the time I opened it 4 hours later. On the other hand, I've also put salad in there, and the salad was unmarred by the heat of the bottom containers after 4 hours.

If you're going to put cold food into the top container, I would recommend that you leave the top inch of the middle container empty as a heat buffer.

The only awkward thing about the container is that the soup container has a rubber ring gasket and a tiny dime-sized rubber vent cover, both of which need to be popped off and cleaned after each use. Otherwise, gunk will get into the gaps and get really gross. I've found that sticking the pointy end of the chopstick into the gasket groove will pry the thing out easily, and the valve cover is easy enough to take off. My only concern is that I swear that I'm going to lose or break either of them one day soon. But if that's the secret to being able to keep soup boiling hot for hours in a container that screws shut without leaking, then I'm willing to put in the extra effort.

Needless to say, I love this lunch jar, and would recommend it to anyone.

I love this product! I bought it for my fiancee so that he would start taking his lunch to work. So far it's been a month and he's been carrying this thing to work everyday. He says that it garners looks and questions from others at work, at how neat it is packaged. I just love how well it allows you to bring a balanced and delicious meal. He has even admitted that it's much yummier to eat this lunch, as opposed to eating out where the food is too heavy. Look for Mr. Bento on Flickr. Evidently it's created quite the stir!

This large lunch jar is wonderful for big lunches. I like how you have four compartments for food so that you can separate ie. rice from sauce. We absolutely love it, the reason for not giving full five stars is that you cannot wash any of the parts in the dishwasher.

It was a total waste & frustrating purchase since the food inside it doesn't fulfill my lunch demand. Means it's tiny. The Second compartment from the bottom has a serious weakness on it's lid because it allows the top lid on top of lid which opens to show off the white foam inside it (which before it gets off seems like it does not come off) when the food is hot and packed. Inside the lid is a white foam. Once it starts open, water and liquid stuff goes inside and begins stinking. You can't wash it easily since it only opens when the compartment food is warm and you attempt to open it after closed. Second serious fault of this item is that the spoon came with it scratches all the compartment walls. The compartment material is not strong enough to resist the spoon hit hence it begins to pill off which you can feel while washing it. The third reason of the waste of money is that the food does not remain hot as it claims. Just stays warm for an hour then the warmth is gone in 4 hrs. I've not tried cold stuff in it hence I can't write about it. If you love to eat and so you want to purchase it, I prefer you better change your mind and get something slightly bigger or wider compartment Lunch Jar. You may prefer 3 compartment rather than tiny 4 compartments. I sincerely lost more than 40 bucks in this Lunch Jar because I trusted the item description which does not comply the reality. I enjoy eating food but I don't mean here over eating. If you really work hard and need good food to carry with, this jar is a total waste of money. This is like a Breakfast Jar which you put inside and in a few minutes ready to open and finish. If you mean the LUNCH to carry, forget about this item. Rest is upto you. I only wrote my experience which is bitter to me and every time I see this Jar, I see my money and want to carry with and I hate it because of its tiny compartments, low quality interior coating and the temperature management system as claimed/used in this jar. All cheap materials including box packaging foam underneath the second bottom compartment lead! I want the company Compensate me covering my total frustration using it. I neither can throw it nor can use it the way I expected I would.

Amazon.com has this for a good price - there are similar but smaller sets on the market for much more money. You'll more than make up the cost on meals out several times a week by packing your own and everyone knows leftovers taste better the next day! If you are like me and don't like the idea of microwaving your food every day, this keeps food warm until lunch or dinner if preheated before packing. According to instructions, let food cool a bit before capping, and the bowls are microwavable if you prefer to heat up food later. The drawstring bag with zippered side for easy access, adjustable shoulder strap and handle is a great addition along with a stainless steel "spork." I was more than impressed with this. Zojirushi makes and is known for their high quality products and you'll use this set for a very long time.
