Zen Bento Box 04

Great product!

Great quality. The latch handles are hard to grasp when locking the lid. If that design issue could be addressed, the product would be perfect.

The Zen 04 - Stainless Steel Two Tier Bento (720mL) is an absolute gem! It strikes the perfect balance between functionality and design, with its compact two-tier structure offering excellent portioning options. Whether you’re packing a hearty meal or a variety of smaller dishes, this bento makes it effortless and elegant.

The stainless steel build is not only sleek but incredibly durable, a testament to the superior quality of Japanese craftsmanship. Its design keeps food fresh, with a secure seal that ensures no leaks or spills. The 720mL capacity is surprisingly versatile, fitting a satisfying meal without feeling bulky.

Cleaning is quick and easy, and the stackable design saves space when not in use. As a thoughtful touch, I’d recommend including an extra gasket just in case it’s needed in the future—though the original one seems built to last.

It’s the perfect combination of practicality, eco-friendliness, and timeless style. If you’re in the market for a durable, beautifully crafted bento box, the Zen 04 is a must-have. It’s an investment in quality that you’ll appreciate every single day!

The bento feels very well built and closes securely. The seals work well. The closures stay in place even when the box is shaken around or put in my backpack.

Just love this small, cute box! Now I'm putting my lunch in it, and I'm very satisfied👍

Zen 04 is a dream come true for minimalists
I've never been happier with a bento box - it's compact, light and leak-proof. I love taking it to work as well as on hiking / backpacking trips as it's light and compact design is perfect when every little bit of weight counts on extended backpacking trips. It also cleans easily and, in my opinion, is very beautiful in its simplicity.

Thank you for the wonderful product!

Nice stainless, bad clamp design.
The Zen bento boxes are a well made stainless steel box. They have a nice removable gasket, which makes them easy to wash. I would like to be able to purchase the gaskets separately, as the stainless will last forever, but the gaskets may wear out or be lost. I would give this product 5 stars on quality of material, however the clamp design is so bad I would give it 1 star for that. The clamp will undo if the box is jostled and spill it's contents, I use a band on the box now which is rather tight as it has to go on the wide end because the clamp is in the way. Honestly I'd rip off the clamp, but there is no way to do this without ruining the box. The clamp is also finicky to use and you end up with fingerprints all over the stainless trying. I do recommend the Zen products. I have a Zen 02 box which we love, is well made, exceptionally attractive and I expect will last forever. Just stay away from this one.

Love at first sight!!!
I LOOOOOOOOOVE this bento box. I was skeptical at first because of the price but I am extremely happy with my purchase. The size is a little big for me as a moderately active female in North America but that is easily resolved by packing less food. This product is quality. The only thing I have to mention is make sure the rice is completely cool before you put on the lid... it is a headache to remove the lid. body
