Product Description
Time to tote your lunch to work or school in this Classic Stainless Lunch Jar from Zojirushi! Don't worry about whether or not your food will keep warm- this lunch jar ensures that your meal won't go cold the second you take it out of the fridge. Most folks have fond memories of their old-school metal lunchboxes, but sometimes a lunchbox just doesn't cut it, especially when hot or cold food is involved. Enter the Zojirushi Mr. Bento lunch jar, which comes with a series of microwaveable bowls that keep food hot while you're working. The bowls come in 15.2-, 10.1-, 9.5-, and 6.8-ounce sizes, perfect for rice, soup, a main dish, and a side dish. The bowls also stack conveniently inside the washable container, which employs vacuum-insulated stainless-steel construction to preserve the temperature of its contents for hours. If the bowls aren't necessary for your meal, simply use the jar by itself to keep other foods hot or cool. The bundle even comes with an easy-to-carry bag for convenient transport.

Almost everything I expected... February 9, 2008
M. Trail (Houston, TX United States)
I was excited to receive my Zojirushi Classic Lunch Jar/Bento after the reviews I read. I love the chopsticks w/case that fit so nicely on the side of the bento jar. I would have liked the soup bowl to have been slightly larger, found the middle section for the rice/main meal to be very ample as well as the top bowl, but I have yet been able to keep anything in the top bowl that starts out cold from getting warm from heat of the main bowl. I have tried putting the top bowl in the freezer before putting the salad or fruit, etc. in the bowl as well as put the side dish w/bowl in the refrigerator until the last minute before I leave for work. By lunchtime, the cold section is room temp or warm, but that's okay. If it bothered me enough, I would put the top bowl in the refrigerator at work. By lunchtime, the hot food is warm to steamy but not hot--still tasty though.
I have not used it as regularly as I would like because of the preparation time in the morning to heat the bento with hot water and heat the food. I do find that the bento jar/chopsticks are great in helping with portion control if you are trying to watch your weight.

I love my other Bento so I decided to purchase another one. I received the classic in the mail and I was extremely disappointed. Im sure it works well but it was so masculine that I decided to return it.
Ill stick with my smaller Mr. Benton.
The Bowls were all larger and theres only 3 vs oher Bento that has 4 holders. This would be perfect for lunch while camping or for construction site.....not fitting for girlie girls like myself.
Not that hot December 12, 2007

Because I work outside and I keep the container in my truck - which can be very cold in the winter - the food don't stay hot for a long time. I usually pack my food - hot - around 6.30 am and by 12.00 noon the food is cold. It did not work out too good for me but I may be asking too much.
 Not what I expected in quality or insualtion properties October 2, 2007

I ordered the Zojirushi lunch jar expecting something similar to a thermos -- keeps hot foods hot and cold foods cold. What a complete disappointment and waste of money!. The interior is lined with plastic and the lid is uninsulated and not water-tight -- it just clips to the body. If you want to talk about an accident waiting to happen; you've found it here. And you can apply this same review to Mr. Bento. I just printed the return shipping label and am sending this back ASAP. I recommend the Nissan JLN1400X Lunch Tote instead (even if you can't buy it here).
 Great product September 14, 2007

Works great!
Just remember, it keeps *either* hot food hot *or* cold food cold. The containers aren't insulated from each other, just from the outside. It does a decent job insulating, but your piping hot food you load in the morning will not be quite piping hot at lunch time. If you've got access to a microwave, you may want to heat things up a bit; if not you'll probably find lunch warm enough if it was hot when you loaded it.
Others at work will be impressed when you pull out your four-course lunch.
The chopstick container is pretty cool, it keeps the sticks clean and handy. As others have said, there is only one container that will hold liquids, and the portion sizes certainly aren't "super size me," but we probably don't really need that much food anyway :-)
