I bought the flamingo and the turtle critter lunchbox for my 2 daughters 2 years ago and they're still going strong!!!! I just rinse them daily with hot water and when they get really dirty, I just throw them in the dishwasher! They come out looking like new! They're the best lunch boxes. I have bought others elsewhere, but they don't even make it through 1 school year!
My boys have been using their lunch boxes for four years, and they are still in great shape. One was just lost on a field trip, so I am ordering a new one. Considering the years of use these are the best buy ever!
We bought this lunch box for our diabetic daughter. The size is perfect for carrying around her supplies (juice boxes, ice packs, insulin), and the 2 pockets allow us to pack syringes, band-aids, alcohol wipes, etc. Our 3 year old loves her "diabetes bag."
Very disappointed in this product. Only lasted a few months. The inside is easily ripped. Other companies make a similar product that has a hard plastic box insert. This protects the contents from squishing, protects the lining of the box, and removes for easy cleaning.
