I thought that I would love this item but the drink canister does not stay closed. My son and daughter took them to our co-op in their back packs and it leaked all over their stuff. I also bought the one with the mixer squirlly thing in it and have had problems with that leaking also. The salad keeper works well but there is no room for plasic ware as was advertised. The smaller containers in the lunch keeper leak also. I was not impressed!

I love this set. My mother gave it to me for Christmas, as I had been complaining about my lack of good, functional containers to take my lunch to work. These work perfectly.
I don’t have much use for the drink container, as I don’t really drink protein shakes. But, even without the bottom compartment, it’s a good cup and it keeps the drinks COLD. The salad container is great as well- holds a ton! Though, it’s a bit heavier than I thought it would be- even when empty. Not a big deal though, completely manageable.
The lunch to go box is my favorite though! I freeze the gel pack every night, and it’s ready to pop in the next morning. No trouble with it fitting or anything. I pack bread or a wrap or a deli flat in the bottom with some cheese, then my sandwich filling in one of the small containers and a side dish or fruit in the other. Perfect proportions!
I’ve been taking these containers to work every day since Christmas. They seem to be holding up great. I can’t speak to durability in the dishwasher or microwave though, as I have done neither. I hand wash every night and only take cold foods in them.
I’m quite happy with these. Makes me excited to pack my lunch every night.

Effective way to send lunches to work in an appetizing way. The end of the “brown bag” lunch. The ice packs built into the packs keep the food cool until microwaved (if hot food is needed). I’ve had mine for 2 years, and wash the kids in the dishwasher….and they are durable enough that they are still in great condition. Look great too!
Makes taking lunch to work much more appetizing than a brown bag and plastic zip bags.

This review is exclusively for the rectangular container. I purchased it alone at Wegman’s for ~$12.00 (then bought 3 more we love it so much). I was looking for a container to send my toddler’s lunch. What I love about this box is that it keeps cool until lunch time – no refrigeration necessary. Note box prob can’t be opened by a young child – it stays shut pretty tight.
The container: The rectangular container has a few inches deep of space at the very bottom, on top of that sits the ice pack (doesn’t touch food below if std sandwich sz), then there are two small rectangular containers that sit on top of the ice pack. Each of those two small containers has a lid that closes tightly. Then the lid for the entire box (purple in the pic) covers the entire container.
We put a sandwich in the bottom, ice pack on that, then put fruit in one small container and veggies in the other. As mentioned, the small containers stay shut and if closed properly (by adult, not easy for small one to close it tightly) then it doesn’t leak.
My only complaint: on the top lid there’s a small piece that sticks out a bit so one can easily open the container. On all 4 of our containers, this small lip has broken. All the small inner containers are fine, but the top outer one has broken on all. It can still be opened, but it’s a bit annoying.
Overall we love this. I know many adults take their lunches in this as well to avoid the office fridge. Highly recommended!

I love this set. I was reading all the reviews of the various other Fit & Fresh products and couldn’t decide which to try… so this set worked well for me because it has 3 different pieces for a low price.
The set comes with ‘Lunch on the Go’ (holds a sandwich and has 2 small containers for sides or sammich fixins’), a salad & dressing holder (with spork), and a cool cup for smoothies or dips.
PROS:
- The lids fit well so I don’t have to worry about the containers tipping.
- The coldpacks work well so I don’t need to bring an insulated lunchbag to work
- Within this set there are a variety of storage options so I have the perfect container whether I am bringing a sandwich, or hummus and chips, or cheese and fruit, or whatever.
- It’s cute
CAN’T COMMENT:
- I have read that the lids warp in the DW. I don’t know – I handwash.
- I have read that the dressing dispenser is awkward to use. I don’t know -I don’t do dressing.
BOTTOM LINE:
If you’re looking for an easy AND versatile storage set to take your lunch to work, and you don’t mind plastic, this is it.
