Bento 5 + Matching Snack Pots Bundle
Our 5 compartment stainless steel kids lunchbox, bundled with matching leak-proof Snack Pots for even more variety throughout their day.
The Oli Eve Bento 5 + Snack Pots Bundle pairs our five-compartment stainless steel lunchbox with matching leak-proof stainless steel Snack Pots — perfect for kids who love a little bit of everything.
Pack fruit, veggies, crackers, sandwiches, sushi and treats across five separate compartments, then use the Snack Pots for yoghurt, dips, sauces, juicy fruit or a separate recess snack. Their leak-proof, FDA-approved food-grade silicone lids give you extra peace of mind when packing liquidy foods.
More variety, less packaging and plenty of flexibility for busy school days.
🍓 Five compartments for more variety
For kids who like options, the Bento 5 makes it easy to pack a varied school lunch without everything getting squashed or mixed together.
Five separate compartments give you space for fruit, veggies, crackers, cheese, cut up sandwiches, sushi and a little treat — all in the one lunchbox.
It's particularly handy for younger children, grazers and kids who prefer smaller portions of different foods.
Prefer fewer, larger compartments? Consider the Oli Eve Bento 4.
🫐 Matching leak-proof Snack Pots
The matching Snack Pots give you even more flexibility when packing their day — especially for foods you want to keep separate from the main lunch.
Made from premium food-grade stainless steel with leak-proof, FDA-approved food-grade silicone lids, they're perfect for yoghurt, dips, sauces, juicy fruit and other liquidy foods.
That means extra peace of mind when their lunch gets turned sideways, upside down or tossed around inside a school bag.
They're also great for berries, crackers, cheese, dried fruit and treats.
Use them for recess, alongside the Bento 5 at lunchtime, or pack one separately for an easy snack on the go.
✏️ Personalised for them
Make their lunch gear easy to recognise — and much harder to lose.
Your child's name can be permanently laser engraved directly into the stainless steel Bento 5. It's not a sticker, label or vinyl, so it won't peel, fade or wash off.
You can also laser personalise the silicone lids of the Snack Pots, giving their lunchbox and snack pots a matching personalised finish that's easy to identify at school.
Personalisation is optional and can be added on this product page.
🔒 Plastic-free & food safe
The Bento 5 and Snack Pots are made using premium food-grade stainless steel, offering a durable alternative to disposable packaging and plastic food containers.
The Bento 5 is crafted from 18/8 food-grade stainless steel with a removable food-grade silicone insert, while the Snack Pots feature FDA-approved food-grade silicone lids.
BPA-free, phthalate-free and made without hidden coatings — designed for everyday food contact and busy school days.
🧼 Easy to clean
School lunches can get messy. Cleaning them shouldn't be.
The Bento 5's removable silicone insert lifts out completely for a thorough clean — helping prevent trapped crumbs and lingering smells.
The Bento 5 is dishwasher safe on the top rack up to 60°C, while the Snack Pots are designed for easy everyday cleaning.
🎒 Made for school days
The Bento 5 is designed for kids who love variety, with five compartments that make it easy to pack different foods and smaller portions without relying on disposable wrappers and plastic bags.

Choose the Bento 4 if...
The Bento 4 is our most versatile stainless steel lunchbox and is ideal for children with bigger appetites or families who like packing a wide variety of lunches. With the largest overall capacity, it's perfect for sandwiches, wraps, pasta, salads and leftovers while still providing separate compartments for fruit, snacks and treats.
It's a fantastic option from Kindergarten through to Year 6 or 7, and many families continue using it well into high school thanks to its generous size.
The Bento 4 is the best choice if you:
- Want the largest and most versatile lunchbox.
- Pack sandwiches, wraps or leftovers regularly.
- Need larger portion sizes.
- Want a lunchbox that will grow with your child.
Choose the Bento 5 if...
The Bento 5 is designed for children who love variety. Its five compartments keep food separate, making it ideal for picky eaters or children who enjoy a colourful mix of fruit, vegetables, crackers, cheese, yoghurt and other snacks.
Although it has slightly less overall capacity than the Bento 4, the additional compartment allows for better organisation and food separation.
The Bento 5 is the best choice if you:
- Pack lots of different snacks each day.
- Want maximum food separation.
- Have a child who prefers foods not to touch.
- Love creating colourful, balanced lunchboxes.
It's generally ideal from preschool through to Year 5 or 6, when growing appetites may begin to outgrow some of the individual compartment sizes.
Choose the Bento Go if...
The Bento Go is not designed as a full lunchbox—it's the perfect companion for snacks. Lightweight and compact, it's ideal for Crunch & Sip, recess, after-school activities, sport, travel, excursions or keeping healthy snacks in the car.
Many families pair the Bento Go with a Bento 4 or Bento 5 to create the ultimate school lunch setup.
The Bento Go is the best choice if you:
- Need a dedicated snack box.
- Want a Crunch & Sip solution.
- Need something compact and lightweight for sport or travel.
- Already own a Bento 4 or Bento 5 and want an additional snack container.
It's suitable from toddler years through to primary school and remains useful for older children and adults wanting convenient snacks on the go.
Still Unsure?
If you're looking for the most versatile lunchbox, choose the Bento 4.
If your child enjoys lots of variety and separate compartments, the Bento 5 is likely the better option.
If you simply need snacks, Crunch & Sip or something compact for sport and travel, the Bento Go is the perfect addition.
No matter which you choose, every Oli Eve lunchbox is made from premium 18/8 stainless steel, is BPA-free, dishwasher safe, features a removable silicone seal for easy cleaning, and can be permanently personalised with laser engraving—creating a lunchbox that's built to last for years of everyday adventures.

Some Common Questions
Is the Name Personalisation Permanent?
Yes, we use the latest in laser etched technology to permanently laser etch a name and or emoji directly in to the stainless steel. This will never fade or be removed
Are the Lunchboxes Dishwasher Safe?
Yes, simply give it a brief rinse, remove the seal and wash it face down. Be sure to dry it thoroughly before storing
Is the Silicone Seal removable?
Yes. This is very important as many options in the market are not. We encourage this to ensure the silicone can be cleaned and dried properly, preventing unnecessary mould presenting
Whats the ideal Age Range for This?
Ideally between 4 and 8 years old, however some of our customers tell us their growing 13 year boys like taking 2 to school for recess and lunch
