Rubbermaid Bento Boxes and Toppers Review

Bento in Paprika

ABOUT:

Typical storage boxes contain your items, but the inside becomes cluttered – making it difficult to find what you need. Rubbermaid’s Bento collection is designed to organize items, rather than just store them.

Features:

• Internal Flex Dividers that can be individually popped open or closed
• Toppers act as trays, covers or lids
• Same size containers can stack on top of one another
• Smaller sizes nest inside larger sizes for space efficient storage when not in use
• Durable polyester fabric
• Available in Paprika, Chadwick and Loose Linen colors

MY THOUGHTS:

I am a box-o-holic.  I love using boxes for storage throughout my house, but I admit it gets messy and it is hard to find attractive yet durable boxes.  I usually hid them in rooms but then they get forgotten about or not used.  For example, in my family room I have a box to collect toys but I end up keeping it in the closet and then guess what – it stays in the closet!

The Rubbermaid Bento Collection is exactly what I have been looking for!  Not only are the containers super sturdy and durable, they clean up easily, have inside storage dividers (I would have never thought of that) and have lids that multi-purpose as trays!  Oh and you can even stack them if you want!  The Paprika color is the set I receved and it really makes a room pop and look crisp and clean!  The other two colors are more neutral colors.  I hope they come out with more colors in the future.  These containers would be perfect in any room of the house, I mean what room couldn’t use an extra storage container!  I am thinking right off the bat I need these in my office, playroom, family room and master bathroom.

I have been swamped at home this past month, but I have plans this winter to really organize my house room to room.  These Bento containers are going to be great!  With dividers inside stuff won’t be necessarily thrown into the box and with nice slots for carrying it makes it easier to carry around or stack nicely.

Also, by looking at them you may think of those canvas totes they have for storage, but these Bento containers by Rubbermaid are tough and durable.  They are not at all flimsy.  You can also use the Bento Toppers (lids) on their own on your desk or counters for quick storage.

Flip the Topper over and its a tray!

Use the flexible dividers or don’t!
