Upgrade to the Big Bento Lunch Box from Misanbroo — a premium 316L stainless steel bento lunch box designed in Finland and built to carry everything from a primary school lunch to a hearty adult meal. Three generous compartments and a leak-proof silicone seal make this one of the most practical big bento lunch boxes you can buy in NZ.
At 22 × 22 × 6.5 cm and 1,200 ml, it's a genuinely large bento lunch box that still slips neatly into a school backpack, laptop bag or shelf fridge. If you've been searching for a single bento box that suits kids, teens and adults, this is it.
Why 316L stainless steel?
Most stainless steel lunch boxes use 304 — a good, food-safe grade. We went a step further. 316L stainless steel contains added molybdenum, which gives it much higher corrosion resistance against acidic and salty foods — think tomato pasta sauce, citrus, vinaigrettes and soy-based dressings. 316L is the same grade used in medical and marine-grade applications.
- Anti-bacterial surface — 316L has been shown to inhibit E. coli growth, keeping your lunch hygienic between uses.
- Rust and stain resistant — no black pitting or rust marks after months of daily packing.
- BPA-free, plastic-free interior — the entire food-contact surface is pure stainless steel.
- Built to last — a stainless steel bento lunch box that handles school bags, hot dishwashers and active commutes for years, not months.
Key features
- 3-compartment bento layout — keep your main, protein and side separate. No more soggy sandwich from leaking curry. One of the best compartment lunch boxes for organised meal prep.
- Leak-proof silicone seal — tested with wet foods like yoghurt, hummus, salad dressing and dips. (Full water submersion isn't recommended — the seal is for food, not a canteen.)
- Generous 1,200 ml capacity — big enough for a full adult lunch, roomy enough for a teenager's appetite, and easy portion control for primary-aged kids.
- Stackable, slim profile — at only 6.5 cm tall the Big Bento Lunch Box fits easily in school backpacks, commuter bags and fridge shelves.
- Gentle hot-water warm-up — pour hot water (not boiling) into the plastic outer tray to warm the food from underneath when there's no microwave at work or school.
- Finnish design — from Misanbroo, with the clean, functional Nordic kitchen aesthetic.
- Dishwasher safe tray — top-rack dishwasher safe for the 316L stainless steel tray; hand-wash the lid to preserve the silicone seal.
A bento lunch box for kids and adults
This is a versatile stainless steel lunch box NZ families return to because it genuinely works for three audiences:
- Adults commuting to the office or uni — 1,200 ml is a proper lunch, not a snack. The three compartments keep your salad, protein and carbs distinct. A premium bento lunch box for adults that survives daily handbag life.
- Teens packing a high-school lunch — the 316L stainless steel shrugs off locker bumps and rough school bags. Easy to open one-handed between classes.
- Primary school kids aged 6+ — a large enough school lunch box to last the whole day, with a lid small hands can open on their own. A great kids lunch box with compartments for variety-pack lunches.
Care, cleaning & reheating
- Reheating: pour hot water (not boiling) into the bottom plastic tray and sit the stainless insert on top to warm your meal gently — perfect for offices and classrooms without a kitchen.
- Do not microwave the stainless tray on its own: metal will arc. If you have microwave access, transfer food to a microwave-safe dish first.
- Dishwasher: top-rack safe for the 316L stainless steel tray.
- Lid & silicone seal: hand-wash only to extend the seal's life. Avoid bleach and abrasive scourers.
- Drying: towel-dry the stainless tray to keep the finish bright.

1. When does our Buyer Guarantee apply?
Buy Kiwi is a marketplace that connects consumers with New Zealand owned businesses (Sellers).
Buy Kiwi holds the highest regard for the customer experience provided by the Sellers to consumers.
In the event of any dissatisfaction with a purchase on the Buy Kiwi marketplace, the Seller should be first contacted and reasons outlined for the dissatisfaction be provided to the Seller.
Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, you have certain rights and guarantees in relation to products you purchase. These rights and guarantees are actionable against suppliers (i.e. our Sellers) and/or the product manufacturers.
However, to ensure you have a great buying experience, we also offer a Buyer Guarantee, which is intended to align with your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.
You will generally be covered by our Buyer Guarantee when products you have purchased on Buy Kiwi from a Seller are faulty or defective, are not the same as advertised, are fake or are incorrect or have not arrived.
You accept that our Buyer Guarantee is not a form of insurance or product warranty.
Please note, our Buyer Guarantee does not apply to the following situations:
- If the Seller has not been notified first of the dissatisfaction.
- Buyer’s Remorse: if you decide that you do not like your product or if you have changed your mind.
- Buyers Mistake: if you have ordered the wrong item (e.g. you wanted a Large T-shirt, and accidently ordered a Small).
- Fraudulent Claims: if we deem you to have acted fraudulently (e.g. if we have evidence from a courier that you received your product, we will not accept a complaint that your product has not been delivered).
- Items shipped to a "vacant” address: if you have addressed your order to be delivered to a vacant, empty or unsafe address.
2. My product is faulty or defective
The following process will apply where you believe that:
Your product is faulty or defective (e.g. it does not work, is unsafe, is not fit for purpose, or is not acceptable in appearance and finish).
The product you have received is different to what you have ordered: e.g. you ordered a small size but have received a large.
The number of products you have received is incorrect: e.g. you ordered 3 shirts but only received 2.
The product you have received is a fake.
The product you have received looks different from how it is advertised on Buy Kiwi (please note however that due to photographic and screen limitations, some actual products may differ to a small extent in visual appearance from the way they appear on the Platform).
The product you have received has been damaged during delivery or is empty: e.g. you have ordered glassware but the product was broken when you took it out of the packaging, or, the package delivered was empty.
The product is missing pieces or parts (e.g. you order a remote-control car and do not receive the remote control).
- You must lodge a complaint with Buy Kiwi by emailing support@buykiwi.co.nz within a ‘reasonable time’ of receiving your product.
- Within 5 business days of receiving your complaint, Buy Kiwi will liaise with the Seller and will either (i) determine whether or not you are eligible for our Buyer Guarantee; and/or (ii) request that you send your product to the Seller’s return location so that either we or the Seller can complete an investigation.
- Where you are required to send back your product, you may take it to a pick up or drop off location (as notified to you at the time you lodge the complaint) (in which case it will be shipped to the Seller’s return location free of charge), or, you may arrange your own shipping (which may not be refunded). We recommend that you keep evidence that you have sent your product back to the Seller’s return location. If you are sending back a product that is damaged, please also send the parcel or cover in which your product came as it may be used to make a claim against the relevant courier company.
- Where we have requested that you send your product back to the Seller’s return location, Buy Kiwi will make a decision as to whether or not you are eligible for our Buyer Guarantee, within 5 business days of receiving the product.

You will be refunded to the payment method that you used to pay for your products.
If we cannot make payment back to the payment method you used to make your purchase, we will need to make alternative arrangements with you. In the first instance you will need to contact one of our customer experience team to let them help with the refund.
5. Using other methods to claim
You cannot use multiple methods to get a refund or replacement of your products. After selecting a process (e.g. through our Buyer Guarantee, or requesting a chargeback from your payment provider) you may only use that process to resolve your complaint.
If you request a chargeback from your payment provider or file any other dispute, any requests already opened through Buy Kiwi for the same product will be cancelled.
