Qualit Bento Box
My wife and I are getting heavily into all things Japanese (especially cuisine) and have been cooking and preparing a lot of sushi of various types. We wanted to make up a picnic of sushi and other Japanese snacks (to make a change from sausage rolls etc) do thought that we would buy one of these. It is, of course, ideal for the job, with two liquid tight containers of a good size, also a set of utensils in the lid (some chopsticks would have been ideal though) also a couple of small lidded containers for sesame seeds, soy sauce or wasabi for dips. Will buy another as I think ideally this is large enough for one small lunch each or one large lunch for one person. Nice quality, looks really neat, can't wait to try it out. Itadakimasu!

Gorgeous and really practical
Literally the only downside to this is it's quite big but as it's leakproof with proper silicone seals you don't need to use the bottom half. You can just use the top half and leave the bottom at home and it stays together. Dividers work well, the sauce pots are a good size and good quality. The bamboo was worth the extra money just to have bamboo cutlery with it, really nice to eat off rather than plastic.

Good quality and works well
This is a great product and does keep everything compact. The lid on top is not real wood and is a plastic effect wood. You have to keep the elastic band that comes with it otherwise the top lid will not stay on. Despite that, the size is good, I love that you can separate the containers to the size you want. It cleans well and looks good.

Very good size and overall design
I bought two different bentos, the left "bean shaped one" for myself and the one I'm reviewing for my partner. The only thing I wish mine was a bit bigger, since this UMAMI one is a bit more spaciousand has more extras like the sauce containers and dividers.Overall I would say this bento it's a very good adult size container. You can feat a decent meal no problem. It has a lid for every container and space for cutlery inside the box. It comes with fork, knife, spoon and chopsticks. They also add 2 sauce pots in this pack and they are very handy.The rubber seals in the lids make it leak proof, but I wouldn't trust it having it full of soup sideways (thats just me).It's very easy to clean but sometimes it's annoying having to clean all the lids and dividers.I would say it's pretty sturdy and it will last us a long while and lots of trips from home to work!

Perfect for work
I love this lunchbox, it holds the perfect amount and the moveable dividers give you great flexibility. The two pots that come with it are great for sauces, and the cutlery is fantastic quality. I also love the fact that it's fully airtight, with the little rubber grommets allowing easy release of the lids.Perfect for a work lunchbox, I've been using it for several months now and it's still as good as new.

LOVE!
Absolutely wonderful bentō!! I love it. The bamboo top makes the product look elegant with a modern touch to a traditional design. But more importantly - easy to clean, 2 removeable dividers, beautiful reusable cutlery and 2 mini pots that fit neatly in either compartment.For those wondering: yes, you can fit 2 sandwhiches in there! Just cut them diagonally. Utensils are wooden and the elastic band holding both together can be used on 2 boxes or just 1. Use the band length-wise along one container if you don't need to carry two.I have ordered more!

Good lunch box - not worth £30
It's a great little box, perfect for meals for one.It's a little bit of false advertising as it states there are 2 sauce pots (there is only 1) and there is also 4 pieces of cutlery (there are only 3).The quality is about a 4/5 - the top lid needs to be held on by the elastic banding that goes around the box, so I would be careful not to lose that! Another negative is that the 2 dividers - 1 of them is a bit loose and doesn't stand up on it's own which is quite annoying. The other one is fine.I love the cute little sauce pot, it's so tiny and perfect for guac or syrups - good seal around it so it won't leak. It's a shame there's only 1.The colour I chose was white to match my new travel cup, it looks really good so I'm happy about that.

Two apparently similar products at very different prices
I have just received this nifty little bento box, which will presumably serve as usefully as any other leak proof bento box. As mentioned by another reviewer, the little sauce tub is too tall to fit inside the box and allow the seal to close properly, which I think is a design flaw, though I suspect I am supposed to purchase a carry bag for everything for an additional tenner. The box over all isn't quite as sturdy as I had anticipated, and the "Bamboo" lid which I had naively expected to be real bamboo is simply simulated plastic. It seems otherwise sound with silicone seals to both compartments and the quality is acceptable, though probably not quite to the price paid.I paid around £25.49, reduced from £29.99 on a special deal. The original Umami Bento box price is quoted on the Amazon web page as £49.99. I am not complaining about any of that. I made a choice on price, it will serve a purpose. and I cannot be faffed to return it.What I am complaining about, is that on returning to the relevant Amazon web page to check out the finer points of the silicone seals, I was today confronted by an advertisement for another leakproof bento box which appears, from all details and photographs, to be exactly the same product sold by a different company for £14.99, although it doesn't include the little sauce pot. There are many reviews and it has been on sale on Amazon since Feb 2017, so it hasn't just made an appearance over the last couple of days. I made a pretty comprehensive search of all bento boxes on the day of my purchase, so why didn't I find it? Perhaps I just didn't see it, but it's not the first time I've had that sort of experience on Amazon.So if you are looking for a leak proof two tier bento box make sure you hunt very carefully, because you could be paying very different prices for what appear to be very similar products.
