FAQs

How long does the Built Mindful Lunch Bag keep food cool?

While exact times can vary based on external temperature and initial food temperature, the powerful polyethylene insulation is designed to keep your food cool and fresh for several hours, typically through a standard workday or school day, especially when used with ice packs.

Is the lunch bag waterproof?

The exterior features a stylish shower-proof material, offering protection against light rain or splashes. The interior has a leakproof PEVA lining that contains spills from *inside* the bag, but the bag itself is not designed to be fully waterproof if submerged or exposed to heavy rain.

What are the dimensions of the lunch bag?

The Built Mindful 8 Litre Lunch Bag measures approximately H:26.0 x W:24.0 x D:18.5 cm (Height x Width x Depth).

Can I put the lunch bag in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash this lunch bag. To maintain the integrity of the insulation and leakproof lining, please follow the care instructions: wipe clean the interior with a damp cloth and mild soap, and the exterior can also be wiped clean as needed.

Does it come with any containers or ice packs?

The Built Mindful 8 Litre Lunch Bag is supplied as the bag only. Food containers, ice packs, cutlery, and other accessories are sold separately, allowing you to customize your setup to your preferences.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Built Mindful 8 Litre Lunch Bag is supplied with a 12-month manufacturer's guarantee, covering manufacturing defects from the date of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Food is not staying cool enough.

Ensure the zipper is fully closed for maximum insulation. Pre-chill the bag by placing it in a refrigerator for 30 minutes before packing, and consider using ice packs or gel packs to enhance cooling performance, especially in warm environments.

Bag feels too small for intended items.

Utilize the removable shelf to reconfigure the internal space; removing it creates a single, larger compartment. Consider using more compact or stackable food containers to maximize the 8-litre capacity efficiently. Plan your meals to fit the bag's dimensions (H:26.0 x W:24.0 x D:18.5 cm).

Unpleasant odors develop inside the bag.

Thoroughly clean the leakproof PEVA lining with a damp cloth and mild soap immediately after each use. Ensure the bag is completely dry before storing it, and leave the zipper slightly ajar when stored to allow for air circulation. For persistent odors, a baking soda solution wipe followed by a clean water rinse can be effective.

  • Storage: When not in use, ensure the bag is clean and dry. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
