WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BENTO THREE & FIVE?
Great question! Though the Bento Three and Five boxes look the same on the outside and are the same size, they have different configurations inside!
The Bento Three has 3 compartments and is good for larger items like a full sandwich or wrap.
The Bento Five has 5 compartments, so it’s great for packing more variety or for ‘grazers’ who prefer small amounts of different foods.
HOW DO I USE MY LUNCH BOX?
Little Lunch Box Co Bento Three & Five lunch boxes are designed to pack a range of fruits, veggies, snacks, sandwiches and more. These bento boxes have no removable parts which makes them super easy to wash and means no parts go missing!
You can also add Little Lunch Box Co Bento Dividers or Bento Cups to pack more variety in the lunch box.
‘Wet’ foods such as dips and yoghurt can be safely packed next to dry foods in Little Lunch Box Co Bento lunch boxes by following Little Lunch Box Co Bento Lunch Box Packing Instructions.
Bento Three and Bento Five Lunch Boxes can be hand wash or washed on the top rack of the dishwasher after each use and then left to air dry. Refer to Little Lunch Box Co Bento Lunch Box Care Instructions for more details.
HOW MUCH FOOD DOES THE LUNCH BOX HOLD?
The Bento Three and Five lunch boxes both hold 980mL which is just under 4 cups of food.
HOW DO I CLEAN MY LUNCH BOX?
Little Lunch Box Co products are all made of durable hard wearing BPA-free, food safe materials. Little Lunch Box Co standard design Bento lunch boxes are top shelf dishwasher safe on wash cycles <45 degrees celsius. Please refer to the Bento Lunch Box Care Instructions. Make sure you are drying your products in an open, upright (like a tent) position overnight.
HOW DO I STORE MY LUNCH BOX?
Little Lunch Box Co recommend that you always store your lunch box with the lid open when not in use to allow the seal to fully dry. Storing your lunch box with the lid closed can result in mould growth.
CAN I PRE-PACK THE LUNCH BOX THE NIGHT BEFORE?
Yes! Because each compartment is airtight, Little Lunch Box Co Bento lunch boxes can be packed the night before and kept in the fridge ready to go in the morning.
IS THE LUNCH BOX LEAKPROOF?
The Bento Three and Five lunch boxes are leakproof for wet foods only, like dips and yoghurts, thicker sauces etc. They are NOT leak proof for liquids. For that reason, foods such as watermelon and citrus fruits may need a paper towel folded up at the bottom to soak up any additional liquids to prevent liquids from crossing over to other compartments of the lunch box. Refer to their Bento Lunch Box Packing Instructions for more information.
DO YOU HAVE ANY REPLACEMENT PARTS OR ADDITIONAL PARTS?
Yes - there are removable dividers to allow for more variety in the lunch box, and replacement latches. You can find all of Little Lunch Box Co replacement parts on their website here.
