Love this lunch bag! It's perfect! And keeps your food cold!!!
First of all I love all PackIt products. I have many different ones. My kids both had pack it lunch bags last year for their lunch pails.
This year I wanted to get one that zipped shut. Last year they had Velcro ones and after like half the year they were not velcroing. That's still pretty good considering using them 5 days a week for six months.
I love this bag though! It's the perfect size and zips all the way shut. Plus it has a handy handle for carrying it. The handle has a clip, so you could clip it on your back pack as well.
There is a mesh side pocket for utensils or a small drink. I might use this for a napkin or a baggie of wipes for my kids to wash their hands and their faces after lunch.
Then there is a front pocket which I will put my kids names in and their contact info.
The best thing about this lunch bag is that you put it in the freezer and freeze it and your food stays cold all day. The front and back of the bag both freeze and keep everything cold. It says in the description that it keeps your food cold for 10 hours. So I decided to try it.
I froze it all night long and took it out at 10am. I set it on our counter with a sandwich and apple in it. I kept feeling it too see when the bag unthawed. Our house is kept between 68 and 70 degrees. The bag finally started to warm up at 7pm. So 9 hours!!
So I feel great about my kids leaving at 7am for school and having lunch at noon! Their food will be cold! I worry constantly about the mayo.
Advice- I would also buy an extra ice pack from the store and throw it in the freezer in case you forget to put your kids lunch bag back in the freezer at night. This happened to me a couple times 😊
Overall I am very happy with this lunch bag! My son loves it and I would totally buy it again.
