Gel Cool Bento Box

What’s to love: Keeps food cold for up to four hours whether taking a lunch to work or school or for a picnic.

What does it do: The Gel Cool Bento Box Dome L is the largest in the line of Gel Cool Bento Boxes. It is 8.94 inches long by 4.25 inches wide and 2.68 inches deep. The domed lid allows a little extra room so that food is not compacted or crushed when the lid is on. To use, pop the lid with the integrated ice pack into the freezer. Next morning, pack your food. A movable divider keeps food separate and flip buckles on each end of the box create a secure seal. The boxes sell for $39 and are available in blue, white or black. Visit loisthestore.com for more information and to see lunch ideas for the boxes.
