I received a Red ThermaPod Mini Lunchbox system to review. It looks like a cute little Laptop right. Well, you’d be wrong. So what is a ThermaPod Mini? The ThermaPod is an all-in-one lunchbox, but better! Normally I pack my son’s lunches with already packaged snacks (chips, treats, nuts, etc.) but with the ThermaPod Mini, I have been packing more healthy items, as there is not a lot of room compared to a standard lunchbox. Don’t get me wrong, I do like this lunchbox but because of its size, a growing boy like mine might starve because there just isn’t enough room to fit all the food they eat. My 3-year-old has been using it for pre-school and it holds just enough for him. I do like how you can microwave it – how nice that will be in the winter with Spaghetti-O’s or even a Chunky Soup. Plus I like the secret compartment for the utensils. It is one step closer to a waste-free lunch.
This lunchbox has so many great features:
- It’s an all-in-one unit. You don’t need separate containers and lids that can get lost or left at school, work, etc. The front has a latch that seals down the lid.
- It has a hidden compartment for utensils. You just open the little compartment door and take out your cutlery. Place it back in when you are finished and it’s ready to go home with you. Plus it comes with utensils (A Limited Time Offer).
- It has a seal. You can put different foods in each of the two compartments and not worry about leakage from one compartment to the other.
- You can remove the compartment that holds the food so it can be cleaned easily. Dishwasher safe too! It is recommended that you take off the seal but you can leave it in.
- It is 100% microwave safe! How cool is that?
- It is BPA Free
Buy It: ThermaPod is no longer in business but you can find similar lunchboxes on Amazon.

I learned the ThermaPod is 100% made in North America of Eastman Triton plastic, one of the safest and most durable plastics available on the market today.

I was a little worried about the plastic aspect but I found it interesting to learn that the ThermaPod is among the safest plastic products on the market today. It contains absolutley no BPA or lead and is 100% made in North America of Eastman Triton plastic, one of the safest and most durable plastics available on the market today.

I learned that they come in 6 colors, are freezer and microwave proof, and were started from a mother’s challenge to her husband’s company!

I enjoyed knowing that a regular mom came up with this. Also, I like that you can microwave it.
Vee says
I think that it’s cool that handles of the cutlery unscrew and can carry salt, pepper, oil or vinegar inside!

I love the no lost lids concept.
Gabrielle says
I love that you can fit everything in one small package (including utensils!) My husband hates having to keep track of forks and spoons during his hectic day so it would be nice to have a place he can always find them and easily store them after he’s done eating!

The handles of the utensils are removable to store spices, etc. Genius!
I agree it’s on the small side for big boys, but nice to be able to keep certain things cool or hot.
Sylvia says
It is dishwaser, freezer and microwave safe. How great!
