Review of an Electric Lunch Box

Just received this today and tested heating up some leftovers as well as steam an egg and broccoli. My goal was 1) to see how hot it got and how quickly, and 2) try to see if it can do both - heat up food as well as cook. Within a couple minutes ayfter adding 2 of the little cups of water and food stacked double decker onto the unit, it heated up quickly and i could see the hot steam coming out of the 2 small vent holes on top. I waited 10 minutes to make sure the foods were heated through and the broccoli was cooked enough.
I am quite impressed. The curry porridge on the bottom tray heated up nicely, while my broccoli and poached eggs places on top of the 2-compartment tray. The instructions say it would take 20 minutes to heat through. From my experience today it only took 5 minutes. I made sure to thaw the broccoli first, but the gyoza i only left out for a few minutes.
This week i'm going to try stirfrying some shrimp and make pepper chicken to see if it can stir fry.

Very good and practical for better advantages should consider USB cable option too .

I got this for my hubby so he could have hot home cooked meals on the road instead of always having to stop for fast food. He has a power strip in his truck to be able to recharge his power tools on the road so the fact that this doesn’t have a regular car plug is okay in his case.

We both like that is used steam heat to warm the food!
I put his enchiladas in the bottom part and he did say that his enchiladas collected a lot of water around them getting them kinda soggy, so I would make sure that whatever you put in the bottom it will be okay with extra liquid, like maybe cooking rice in the bottom, or steaming veggies. Anyways, it starts boiling the water instantly! We are very impressed even tho he’s only used it for food once but I tested it without food before I packed it for him.

We like that it has two sections so he can have more food with him, but we do wish the food containers were made deeper. I wouldn’t recommend housing soup in it bc the lids are not air tight, and you have to remove those lids and snap the sections back into place before you heat your food.

I didnt want a food warmer, as I don't like leftovers. Was skeptical, but purchased anyways. I am soo glad I did!! Cooked rice, and ground beef patty and veggies perfectly! Pre seasoned ground beef, placed raw gb in top corner, frozen veggies in other top corner. Put uncooked jasmine rice and water in bottom container and cooked for 40 minutes. Let sit until I was ready to eat, bout 10 minutes. And amazing!!! I have purchased for my brother, father and nieces!! Can make a healthy 1 serving meal, quick and easily!!

Had it for about 2 month now. So far so good! Haven’t tried to make rice with it yet. But it gets pretty hot to warm up both levels. The only issue would be the bottom level with the heating element, you can’t wash it so only wiping.

I use it for work everyday. The divider does really well at keeping my main entre and side dish separate. I store it in the fridge, and the insulated bag keeps the food cold until I'm ready to heat. I usually plug it in 45 mins before lunch and my food is always steaming hot. I add maybe a tablespoon of water to rice dishes before heating to keep it from drying out and sticking to the bottom.

Excelente

This is easy to use, easy to clean and so worth it! Everytime I bring it to work I have at least three people ask me about it. Best investment!

Need lots of water to work steam can get everywhere, safety issues

Lunch kit, look good, sounds good, feel good. But, appsolutely no good. Nothing works well.

Works great

Super easy to use for soup, although I probably put more in the tray than is optimal. It didn't overflow into the water reservoir, though, so I'm happy about that. It was HOT in about 20 minutes, although you can't see it steaming.

I know that's a while for soup from a can, but I can have this at my desk, and I can't have a microwave at my desk. I don't have enough room. Also, I like the taste of reheated food better when it's not reheated in a microwave; particularly when reheating chicken of any flavor.

The only thing that's a little disappointing are the instructions; there aren't any, really, beyond 'don't pour too much water into the water reservoir because it will leak into your surface', and the safety warnings like 'don't put one's hand over the stream hole' and 'don't open the lid too quickly or one may scald oneself'.

Oh, and there are very basic directions for making steamed rice.

I would like to see things like 'soup, from a can, usually takes ______ minutes to be cooked thoroughly', or 'each extra layer of pans used, after the first one, increases reheating time by ____ minutes per additional ounce of food'. Or even instructions about whether or not the lids for the pans are supposed to be on when cooking food, or not, because that's not mentioned anywhere and could make a big difference in cooking time and I'm the texture of the reheated food. I noticed there was some water on top of my soup, and I think that was from the stream condensing during the heating process. If I knew it was safe to reheat my soup with the lid tray lid on, the extra water wouldn't have been in my soup.

Otherwise I'm very excited to use this at the office on cold days so I don't have to eat spaghetti, stroganoff, or other leftovers cold.

Oh, and a suggestion: you may wish to use distilled water in the stream reservoir to minimize scale.

It’s legit! Put cold food in and it will be PIPING hot in about 15-20. I set it up early and finish my work leading up to lunch.
I haven’t tried cooking in it but other reviews say it’s good for that too.

It’s a little small for the usual amount I eat but that probably just means my portion sizing it too big 🌚

Great For Work, I'm In Construction And A Microwave Isn't Always Around, Plus I Save On Buying Food Everyday, Now That I Have This, I Pack My Breakfast In One Tray And Lunch In the other, nice hot meals from home, it's gets your food really hot. Uses a steam system, must put water, read the instructions when you buy then enjoy Hot Meals. It also COOKS, rice ,eggs, HAS a egg tray.. Hope This Helps 👍🏾

I absolutely love this lunch box.

My mom bought it for me because I travel so much. I'm currently overseas in the netherlands and they don't have a microwave in their hotel rooms (odd for us Americans). This lunch box I'd an absolute life saver. I cook egg whites or oatmeal in the morning. (Takes about 7 minutes)

I make rice and "steamed" veggies almost daily for dinner.

I've heated up chicken marsala.

It doesn't dry out the food and it gets hot in just a few minutes.

Absolutely love this product.

Its also so cute!

Fuera perfecto si trajinera
Una conexión para carros 😌

A mi esposo le encanta 👍🏻

My husband took this to work and it would not heat up his food at all. The bottom seemed to feel hot, but the inside did not get hot at all.

Perfect gift for my boyfriend!! I am so pleased with this and for the past 2 days his coworkers have been saying how awesome his girlfriend must be as he gets a nice hot lunch everyday and they have a sandwiches or have to buy lunch. They now are trying to tell their wives, girlfriends, and significant others they want this! The trays looked extremely small and I was so worried about it BUT ACTUALLY they hold a great amount of food!! So pleased with this product that I ordered another for myself and one for my Dad!! Love this product!

Ya hace mucho la compre y me ah durado
Muy buena…

It doesn’t work

I really loved this little lunch box I loved that it got really hot and didn’t take long at all to warm my food up I just wish that the compartments were a little bigger and the plastic tops on the plate’s snapped onto the plates better.

Heated soup- allowed min 30min to get nice and hot. Not piping hot but hot 👍🏼 if to heat up non-liquid food, must add some water or may burn the food.
