The massive lunch box is made of stainless steel and has an adjustable divider inside. This allows different foods to be stowed separately.
With the help of an easy-open closure, the can is very easy to open and close. A BPA-free sealing ring in the lid allows liquids to be packed in the lunch box without leaking.
After removing the sealing ring, the lunch box can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The tin also comes with an extra sealing ring, two cutters and a cloth pouch.
In addition to the children's version sells freethinker also a lunch box for adults.
However, it should be mentioned that the weight of the lunch box may be a bit heavy for children to carry.
However, when we took a closer look at the delivery, we noticed that one of the cutters did not fit into the recess provided in the product packaging and was therefore not optimally secured during transport. In addition, the lunch box could be difficult to carry for children due to its heavy weight. The partition inside the box is also sharp-edged and could lead to injuries. We also noticed that one of the cookie cutters was rusting slightly.

Product packaging

The bread box and accessories are in a green and very nicely printed box (see 1st picture). Here you can see that the young company has put a lot of thought into the packaging. In addition, the content compact and sustained packed up. The packing box is thick and extremely stable, which makes a significant contribution to a high level of product protection. Indentations on the inside of the carton ensure that the bread box and the red cookie cutter are well secured during transport and will not wobble around. Only the indentation for the green cookie cutter is too small, which is why this bread cutter is not ideally fixed within the product packaging (see 2nd image).
Information about the material composition of the products can be found on the front and back of the box.
In summary, we find the packaging to be successful and visually extremely appealing.

After unpacking

The package contents and instructions

Next, the products were examined more closely (see 1st image).
The lunch box and the cookie cutters look very high quality and are visually appealing. Especially the elongated shape and rounded corners of the lunch box looks very modern. Due to its stainless steel nature, the tin also shines and leaves a lasting impression.
The products are also very well made. Nevertheless, we had to find out that the partition wall inside the can has sharp edges and this could lead to injuries.
The products are very stable. However, it can happen that the partition inside the bread box slips when the box is shaken.
Due to the very good quality of the box, it can be assumed that the product will last a long time.
Unfortunately, on closer inspection, we noticed that the green cookie cutter has rust spots (see 2nd picture).

That was the result of our practical test

In our practical test, we checked the children's lunch box with regard to the manufacturer's advertising promises.
First of all, it should be mentioned that the bread box is very easy to open and close with the easy-open closure. With the help of an adjustable partition, groceries can be stored separately (see image).
Bread can be easily cut out with the included cutters (see picture on the right).
In addition, the lunch box is also leak-proof, which is why liquids can also be transported in it.
The robustness of the bread box should be emphasized. This can withstand bumps and sharp pencils and is therefore perfect for children's everyday life.
A particular advantage is that the box and lid can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Nevertheless, it should be mentioned that the lunch box can be relatively heavy for children. In addition, the partition wall is relatively sharp-edged, which could possibly lead to injuries. It can also happen that the partition slips when the lunch box is shaken.
