Being a full time working mom, means that I leave my house at 7:30 in the morning and don’t return until 5:00. One thing that I have learned over the years, mostly the hard way, is that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is much easier if I pack my lunch and usually my breakfast. The only problem is that I don’t want to tote around an ice chest and most lunch bag options are too small to fit everything. When I got an email from Built the other day highlighting their Rolltop Expandable Lunch Bag, I immediately fell in love!
Built describes this bag as an unique roll-top design that unfolds to fit food, then folds down and converts into handle with buckle closure. The handle attaches easily to bags, backpacks, and strollers and easily insulates food on the go, while fitting a variety of food containers. This bag is made from poly canvas and EVA and has been tested for lead safety. Rest easy, because no PVC is in this bag and it can be hand washed. The dimensions on this bag are W 9.5″ x H 13.2″ x D 7.3″.
Built was nice enough to send me one of their Rolltop Expandable Lunch Bags to review. I was like a kid starting school with a new lunch bag and have proudly showed it off to everybody. It fits a lot more than my previous lunch bag and I can fit a bottle of water and it still closes. Here are my favorite things about this product:
– it was made by Built, which I know crafts a quality product
– it came in a pretty blue/flower patter, and blue is my favorite color
– it was big enough to fit my breakfast, lunch, snacks and drinks for the day
– it is an insulated bag, so that my food stays cold till I can pick it up in the fridge
– the bottom of the bag is super easy to wipe out if anything happens to spill
My only complaint would be that if you don’t roll it down, it snaps awkwardly and is hard to carry, but that only happens when I am trying to shove my huge coffee mug in there. Other than that, I have been using this bag for a few weeks and give it two thumbs up!
The Built Rolltop Expandable Lunch Bag is available in three patterns: black/charcoal, lush flower/midnight blue, and mini dot black & white/charcoal. This bag retails for $29.99 and can be purchased online at builtny.com. While you are there, be sure to check out all their neoprene covers, because all orders over $50 ship for free!
