Very soon school will be starting again and this means it’s back to packing lunches for our kids. Rubbermaid has created a unique product called the LunchBlox that can be utilized not only by our children, but us too! Each part of the kit is microwave, dishwasher, and freezer safe. They are also BPA free! The Lunchblox is designed to make packing lunch easier and to keep your food proportioned in the containers. Each container stacks compactly on to one another to keep your lunch organized in or out of a lunchbox. The lids also snap on to keep contents inside and secure. One the bottom there is also an ice pack that snaps in comfortably. All you have to do is toss it in the freezer overnight and in the morning it will be ready to keep your food cold. It’s everything you need in one block!
The thing I like most about the Lunchblox is that there is a compartment for everything. You can use each container for something different including fruit, salad dressing, salad, and of course a sandwich. The options are endless and whatever you are having for lunch that day can find a place within.
I can also appreciate the lids being a bright green color. It may seem like a minor detail but in my home we tend to misplace, mix-up, and lose our tupperware lids. When it comes time to pack a lunch we can never find the correct top to go with the bottom! After washing and drying, the Lunchblox stacks nicely and can be put away without being separated. This makes it easier to find for the next use.
Overall I feel like the general idea of the “Lunchblox” is a fairly good concept. If there is one thing I would change if I could, it would be that the pieces snapped together tighter. It was not so much the bottom ice pack as the smaller containers that are supposed to snap in place on top. I filled on of the mini containers with salad dressing and could not get it to stay on. Since it wobbled around quite a bit, a small amount of dressing did come out and onto the other containers. Other than that, Lunchblox is a neat addition to your lunchbox. It just needs a few minor tweaks! It does keep your food organized, separated, and compact. Who wouldn’t like that?

I love how the ice pack can fit between the layer to keep everything cool… neat idea !rubbermaid !!
I tweeted Rubbermaid that the creators of this pack should be given a BIG FAT raise. Genius!! Love that it clicks in.
These look so great for school lunches, and I like that the ice pack snaps onto the bottom of the block to keep things cool. I can completely relate to what you said about the bright green lids. One of my kitchen cabinets is full of just Tupperware and one of the bigger pieces is just full of all of the different lids, so when I go to put leftovers away or pack a snack, I'm standing there looking through lids for what seems like forever every single time. Frustrating!
These are so cute and perfect for the kids!! I need to go out and get it!
Thanks for this post!
These Rubbermaid Lunchblox's are perfect for school kids and people who take lunch to work!
Now that my husband works from out of the house, these would come in sooooo handy!
Oh my goodness, I want these. I need something that I can keep cold
Great review! I love ours so far, we don't really snap them together because my daughters lunch box is a star lol.
I love this review! May be a stupid question do you now if they sell them at Wal-Mart or Target? I have been starting to pack lunch for my husband trying to find good containers!

I love how it stacks so nicely together!
I have a set of these myself, and I LOVE them! They are wonderful! And so compact! They are a must for my household! I also love how they have cute little compartments. Makes my day! ^^
This is cute! I think I might need to pick up one of these.
I need a set like that for my kids going to school in the fall. I love how everything fits together so nicely. It doesn't hurt that there are coupons include as well.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I was wondering how good they are. I have three heading to school this month and two hate taking lunchs because the sandwich gets smushed. So if its cold they are ok with soups and things this will help with the warmer weather too.
Did you try the lunch box that comes with it? Does it work well?
These look very convenient
Thanks for sharing
