LunchBots Dips 1.5 oz Stainless Condiment Cups 3pk Assorted

Fits in the lunch bots bento boxes perfectly! These will help add variety to kids lunches without the mess. The perfect size for sauces or dips. They feel high quality stainless and the silicone top will help prevent leaks. Easy to clean.

Got these to keep some emergency cookies for my toddler. Perfect size to hold 4 pieces of Gerber's Arrowroot Biscuits lol. Or other small munchies without being broken/dispersed in my purse (fine, it's a fanny pack not a purse). The lid is somewhat soft, flexible - perfect for what I need. It closes/opens without much effort. It holds liquid tight (I can put water in it and shake w/o leak) but wouldn't dare putting liquidy stuff like ketchup and toss in my bag. It holds liquid in while the lid is closed, but the cap will probably easily come off when tossed around.

I tried all kinds of non-plastic containers for dressings and all of them either leaked or were huge heavy glass. This finally gets it right for ketchup, peanut butter, cream cheese, dressing, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, or even toddler portions of things like raisins or nuts. They are stainless steel cups with stainless steel lids. The lid has a screw-on mechanism to lock it and a flat silicone ring fused to the inside. The silicone being fused on is nice so it can't get lost or fall off in the dishwasher. They are style neutral for adults or kids with no paint to chip off. They have gone through the dishwasher no problem. It's a great idea, long overdue. Update 5/31/13 The silicone gasket has loosened and is warped (probably from me being so lazy and washing it in the dishwasher-even though it says it is dishwasher safe). But it has made is nearly (but not altogether) impossible to close them with a leak proof seal. I continue to use them, since I never trusted the kids to thread the lids on securely anyway, I can deal with it.

Teenage daughter tested out newest LunchBots Dips. She really likes the colors and how cute they are. She found them convenient because they were small and easy to transport for her meals. She put nuts, jam and cereal in the containers. They did not leak at all and she had no issues opening and closing them. She says in the future she can also use them for dips as well as treats. Initially, I thought each kid could have his/her own container, but I suspect each will want a set of 3. They are great for foods you need in small amounts and want contained. I tend to do a lot of handwashing so while they are dishwasher safe, I have found them so quick and easy to wash by hand. The silicon tops make them easy to stack in the cupboard when not in use. These are a great addition to the LunchBots line and we will be using them a lot for summer and school year meals on the go.

These sturdy metal containers are perfect for some salad dressing or dipping sauce that you want to put in your lunch. The secret is in the thick silicone gasket in the lid. When securely tightened, it is leak-proof and air tight. The gasket easily detaches for cleaning and drying. The stainless steel construction is surprisingly heavyweight. The only reason that I am not giving these five stars is that the containers are not fully threaded. Instead of a full spiral thread on the container and the lid, the tightening mechanism is a set of tilted indentations that allows you to turn the lid until it is pulled tightly against the container. If you turn it too far, though, the lid turns past the indentations and pops back off the container. It requires a fine touch to screw down the lid until it is air tight without turning it so far that it pops off again.

These are a bit expensive but they are worth it. That being said,I have to admit I have bought 9 so far... they are fairly small but I use them for the adults and the kids so don't just think of them as sauce cups. I use them for small measured snacks during the day (I take 2 or 3 of them with some pieces of dried fruit, peanuts, pistachios (couple of good mouthfuls in each one) but I do the same for my toddler aged children. I pack snacks in them for them as well and they are just the right size for a small snack instead of handing them a big bag. Think outside the box a little and things like 4 ritz crackers (perfect for a couple of peanut butter crackers) almost like they were made for them. 10 cheez-its crackers, a little handful of diced dried fruit or fresh since they don't leak etc... they are perfect, seal tightly and are very well made. most importantly to me, they are supposed to be 18/8 stainless and solid. Kudos to lunchbots for using an actual commercial grade and quality stainless. Many are a cheaper, less durable grade that will rust if your not careful and if your not careful will actually leach metal into your food (especially anything acidic). I'm willing to pay a little extra for better quality and something that really should last a lifetime (the rubber seals won't but we'll see). I did find that a magnet will stick to some parts of the container but not all, likely something to do with the manufacturing as it's rolled which may create a bit of a less than even distribution of the materials. Haven't actually done the vinegar test yet (pour a tbsp of vinegar in your "stainless steal" vessel and let it rest for a few minutes - if it tastes like metal - well, metal will leach into your food most notably things that are acidic. high quality stainless will not produce a metallic taste at all. Dear lunchbots - make some bigger ones, please... like a 3 or 4 ounce version.

It does exactly what I was hoping for when I ordered it. It's pricey but it works and it's worth it for something that works really well. No leaks whatsoever!! I use it to send runny salad dressing to school for my 10 year old because he likes to pour his own dressing over his lunch salad at school so the lettuce doesn't get soggy by the time he gets to eat it. Even though I'm sure his lunch bag gets tossed around and dropped a couple times a day at school, dressing stays securely in this little container. NO greasy messes inside his lunch bag for me to clean up! I like it that it's stainless steel. I don't like to use plastic especially to store acidic foods. He has no problems opening it and securely closing it back up. So it's really easy to use. You can kind of feel it click and lock into its place when you close. I usually don't have time to write reviews but this one deserves it. Thanks for making this product. I would definitely order it again if mine gets lost.

I had high hopes for these, but found them mostly disappointing. They are ok for taking salad dressing or mayo, ketchup, mustard, but way too small for a serving of guacamole or hummus or cottage cheese or yogurt. They hold about 2 tablespoons at the absolute max. The tops twist close, but the "threading" is actually just a couple of tiny notches and it is very easy to not close it exactly right and then have your sauce leak all over everything. Especially if your sauce is oily and makes the container a little slippery. This has happened enough times that I do not trust these containers to be leakproof. I always put them inside another container or baggie. As other reviewers have mentioned, food can get stuck to or under the silicone seal. It is possible to pry the seal out and wash it, but it's annoying to do and more annoying to get the silicone reseated correctly. I do still use these containers, which is why I gave them 3 stars. But I would not really recommend them and I would not purchase again, especially not for this price.

Für meine Kinder, die noch in die Kita gehen, habe ich schon bereits die LunchBots geholt und nun dazu passend die Mini Behälter. Die Passform ist ideal für kleine Sachen, wie Nüsse etc. Meine Kinder bekommen sie spielend leicht auf und freuen sich jeden Tag aufs neue, sobald die Mini Behälter mit in die LunchBots dürfen. Was noch viel wichtiger ist, die Behälter sind aus Edelstahl und somit langläbig, frei von Chemie und gut für die Umwelt.

Very sturdy little steel pots! I use them for humous or dried fruit in the kids' packed lunches. They do a great job and are easy to clean. I haven't tried them with salad dressing yet so can't vouch for their "leakproof-ness" but the seal in the lid looks like it would cope.

Pequeños para el lunch de los niños. Cierran muy bien, no se abren. Fácil fe lavar. Las tapas se adaptan al contenido. Muy recomendable

Been using these to carry olive oil, vinegar, balsamic and other seasonings. It's perfect. Watertight, no leaking with the silicone seal, doesn't retain any smells, but I wouldn't wash it on the dishwasher - I've had other silicone utensils pick up a taste and smell from it, so won't be taking any chances. Great all over!

They are truly leakproof; which is something I have been desperately trying to find. The only thing is it's a bit pricey for such little tins, but I guess it's what you have to do to stop lunch time accidents.
