Best bento box?

My 6th grader uses a bentgo so I’m surprised a first grader would say this.

We have Yumbox for snacks and Planetbox for lunches. I find the Planetbox is the simplest to clean/dry. The hinged lids on these are helpful, especially for car trips/flights.

I just use Easy Lunchboxes now (it's a brand EasyLunchbox) and use little silicone cups to divide things up. I insert a tiny little container for sauces/dips if needed. We send a thermos and a smaller container on days they want hot foods.

+1 we use Easy Lunchboxes as well. They are plastic and have 3 compartments - one big one for sandwiches. They are so cheap too and last! I’ve had them since my kids were in preschool. My rising 8th grader still uses them!

Sistema to go. They are easy to open with one latch and are a fraction of the cost of a bentigo. They fit in any lunchbox.

Tonkatsu with gyoza, but substitute spicy tuna for the California roll.

I bought my kid a plastic bento box at Walmart they they sell next to the lunch boxes, dream on brand I think. It was like $5 and it goes in the dishwasher and we've had it for 2 years. It also conveniently fits in the lunch boxes they sell right next to it.

I had the 5 compartment Bentgo for 4 years and it never gold moldy.DD now going into 6th grade and I hit her the slightly larger Bentgo with 3 compartments and a slide in piece to make 4 if you want to.

Yum box. Wish I had gotten it sooner. The kid seals the compartments and we’ve never had anything leak to another segment
