[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The stainless steel ones are hard to open and the lids get stuck sometimes causing the food to spill out when it finally gets pried open. Plus, the container gets passed around to multiple people attempting to open increasing the chances your kid gets exposed to germs. I know this because I’ve been on lunch duty enough in my years working in the schools. The stainless steel ones with plastic lids are fine though. Like the funtainer thermoses and the contigo containers.[/quote]

13:24 here. The stainless box I suggested is not hard to open.[/quote]

NP here.  You have be handle the box with care.  I chaperoned a pre-school field trip once and a kid has one of these.  It had been purchased new at the start of the school year.  We were on a spring field trip so it had been used only about 7-8 months at that point.  The box had warped slightly (if you held the lid up, it was no longer flat) and it was difficult to open due to the warping.  Not sure if the warping was due to dishwasher heat, from kid and /or helpers abusing it, but it was warped.  I tried to make the lid straight, but it flexed and then returned to the warped state and would not stay flat.  And once warped, it was almost impossible for the kid to open himself.  An adult had to help him when he used it.  I was told by one of the teachers that he used the box daily and it had been that way since winter break, so by about 3-4 months of use, it was warped.[/quote]
