Thermos Nissan 48 Ounce Wide Mouth Stainless Steel Lunch Tote Review

Thermos Nissan 48 Ounce Wide Mouth Stainless Steel Lunch Tote
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this thermal lunch jar tote as a Christmas gift last year. I have to say, that after testing it for almost 1 year, it has really paid off!! I prefer hot lunches and food stays HOT !!! You have to preheat all the containers by filling it with boiling water, and the jar itself with boiling water. Close all lids. It should preheat for at least 10 minutes. I usually take 15 - 20 minutes making my lunch, so the soup/stew, rice, vegetables etc. are all piping hot. Then I dump all the water, dry the containers, and start filling them, and stacking them in the correct order.
With preheating, my food stays HOT. Many times this year, I didn't get to eat lunch until 2:30 or 3pm. The food was definitely hot (still had steam coming out of it). The very top container, is not steaming hot, but is warm (which means it's perfect for fruit or veggies or snacks). The other 3 containers are hot.
I find this comparable to Mr. Bento from Zojirushi. And they both hold about the same amount of food. The difference?
Mr. Bento comes with chopsticks and a large lunch sak to carry the thermos lunch. The Nissan Stainless lunch tote comes with a spoon in the holder, and it has carrying straps, but no lunch sak to put in as a carrier. Sometimes having a lunch sak to carry it is nice.
I found one of those draw string backpack at Target for $3, and it works really nicely as a lunch bag. It fits the Nissan Thermos wide mouth lunch tote, an extra set of chopsticks, napkins, and another small ziploc container of fruit for dessert.
I do not recommend dairy products. You may get food poisoning by packing dairy items, and spoiled dairy smell is always hard to get out of plastic containers.
All in all, 5 stars! I'm so happy I have 2 sets of lunch jar totes!

Disney Ariel Lunch Bag / Little Mermaid Lunch Pal Review

Disney Ariel Lunch Bag / Little Mermaid Lunch Pal
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My wife recently bought this for my little 4 year old Ariel obsessed daughter. She LOVES it. I like it too, but have a few quibbles. While it's a well made bag of heavy nylon with attractive sparkly piping and sparkly inked design elements, the thermal padding isn't very thick and the insulation leaves a bit to be desired. The interior fabric is water resistant - but not a fully waterproof plastic. The interior isn't particularly easy to clean. There is no zip out liner to facilitate cleaning. There is a short shoulder strap, which everyone uses as a carrying handle - then there also a pair of too-short carrying handles right at the opening which no one uses and just get in the way when you are packing the bag. There is a single elastic velcroed loop inside for holding a sippy cup or water bottle that works fine. Other than that there is no interior organization.
All my quibbles are just minor quibbles. My daughter LOVES it because it's pretty and it works fine as a lunch bag.

Zero Degrees InnerCool 12 Can No Ice Folding Cooler (Color May Vary) Review

Zero Degrees InnerCool 12 Can No Ice Folding Cooler (Color May Vary)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've owned this big for almost three years now and can't do without it.
Almost every day to and from work. It's kept my drinks cold pretty much 'til the
end of the work day. The no-ice method of cooling (fold it up and put in the freezer
overnight) is what sold me on this line of bags.
During the summer I do add an additional freezer gel pack just in case.
My current bag is now worn and the zipper has finally given out. Can't find it in
the stores anymore. Luckily Amazon has it so I better get another one (or two)
while I have the chance.

No ice needed with InnerCool Integrated cooling system coolers. The built in cooling system was compared to a regular cooler in the 6 can cooling version. A regular cooler and 6 can Zero Degrees InnerCool cooler were placed in a room at 72 degrees with six pre-chilled (40 degrees) soda cans inside. The temperature of the can was measured every hour for ten hours.The Zero Degrees cooler was consistently cooler by 10 degrees or more for over 10 hours staying close to the original 40 degree temperature.What makes InnerCool so cool is its specially engineered, extra layer of SuperCool gel. Your InnerCool cooler with the SuperCool gel layer can be frozen or refrigerated for awesome cooling power. The specially engineered layer allows the bag to be folded compactly and opened even when frozen. And InnerCool’s extra layer of SuperCool gel holds cold and keeps things colder, longer than other bag coolers.

My husband is a telephone lineman in Alaska and works year round. This is the only thermos that has kept food piping hot 6-7 hours after preparing. I have tried to purchase more and have been unsuccessful. If you find a 16 oz thermos by Nissan buy it! you won't regret it.

Built Neoprene 20-Ounce Bottle Tote Review

Built Neoprene 20-Ounce Bottle Tote
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love, love, love these! This is the best bottle tote ever. I usually put my water bottle, half full, in the freezer and then, come morning, I top it off with cold water and am good to go. My water stays icy cold up to 3-4 hours, if I'm in hot weather but around the house, its stayed icy for most of the day. I love how I can hook it to my backpack, bike handlebar or wherever you need to hook it up. I have another Built NY bottle tote that's four years old, which I still use, but loved the "cuteness" of the summer bloom pattern- it's a bright, sunny yellow on the inside, a nice sharp contrast to that black and white patten. I can't recommend this item enough.
