Customer Reviews of Breakfast on the Go 1 Kit
Customer Review: Wish it worked...
Summary: 2 Stars
I got this a couple of years ago at Target and I'm sad to see that the flaws have not been fixed. I have a 45 minute commute so I have to get up extra early (which doesn't always happen) so it's nice to have the option to just pack my cereal and get on my way faster.
Well, I have been pretty disappointed with this product. I had to write this review after I got so frustrated this morning about it. As other reviewers say, the lid doesn't fit properly onto the milk cup, so I spend 3-5 minutes trying to clip it on right (while getting milk everywhere). You'd think since they knew liquid was going in the cup, they'd make it seal a lot easier and better. Then I spend another few minutes trying to get the top screwed on right.. no matter how hard you try, it just doesn't go on right. When I get to work and fold open the spoon, it doesn't stay opened so you have to hold it a certain way to get it to work right.
With the 7-10 minutes I spend trying to get the product together, I might as well have just eaten breakfast at home and saved myself the trouble. However it is still such a convenience that I do TRY to use the product, all the while wondering during my drive if milk and cereal are getting everywhere... If a product came out like this that actually worked, I would ditch this thing in a second.
1 star for the actual product, 2 stars for having a good idea...
Customer Review: Love it and bought it as a gift for others who loved it also!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this product last year and have been very happy with it. I prepare it the night before and it is ready to go into my lunch bag in the morning. The trick to the milk top is to sit the container on a flat surface, add your milk then place the top flat on top and press it down firmly all around the top. To open it later, sit it flat again and while holding the bottom, pop the top using the lip that protrudes on the side using your other hand. I read some people say the top didn't stay on but i think it is because they didn't take the time to press it down firmly. I have had NO problems and it has never popped open. The spoon works fine for me also. Just take your time to lock it in place. Mine is used for cereal at least 2 days out of the week. All my coworkers were facinated with it and went looking for their own and i actually purchased one for my pregnant coworker who used it for her daily yogurt, fruit and granola cravings. I will continue to recommend this product because I am very happy with it.Customer Review: WORTH THE BUY!
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this product so much that I had to tell someone about it! I purchased mine from Target last night and used it today. I am one of those people who cannot eat breakfast as soon as they get up so this is PERFECT for me. I used the top container for dry cereal (Kashi..and it fit a lot!) The middle container for my milk and the bottom stored a FULL sized cut up banana. I ate my breakfast 3 hours later and the milk was COLD and I was so happy. My banana was still fresh which made me even happier. I poured the dry cereal into the bananas and added the milk and voila, breakfast was served! The ONLY reason I did not give this 5 stars is the funky spoon. The spoon is located on top and bends in half for storage. It can be used, but it awkard because it does not lock in place. If you can bring your own spoon, I would suggest that. I can also tell you the product is easy to clean. WELL WORTH THE PURCHASE! I even bought one as a gift.Customer Review: Great for cereal lovers!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased one of these, a bit wary after reading some of the reviews; being a cereal lover, I had to give it a try though. I have had many mishaps with other "watertight" seals- ending up with nasty spills, warm milk, and other messes in an attempt to take my cereal with me.
This worked out great! The ice ring kept the milk cold, my fruit fresh, and the set up kept everything in place- no spills! The spoon does lock, you just open it, and push the two parts together when they are straight. Works like a charm!
To avoid issues, I freeze the entire contraption in the freezer. This helps it to keep it's shape beautifully, and ensures the pieces will fit with ease. My only warning is to be careful as this is a hard plastic and can break easily when frozen. I learned this the hard way, but am quite willing to get another because this one con outweighs the benefits!
Customer Review: Good Concept...Bad Fit
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought various Fit & Fresh containers, but this one is not good at all. The concept is good, but once you freeze the ring and try to close the container, well, good luck trying. I even tried to freeze the entire container intact, but as soon as I took it apart to fill it, it still wouldn't close with the ring. Another downside is the top portion where you put the cereal is too small to hold the cereal plus milk...that is unless I put very little cereal inside. Instead I just pour the cereal and milk in the bowl. The spoon is probably the best thing, yes it seemed flimsy at first, but if you pull the spoon out it locks so you can eat with no worries. I still use it, but without the ring it just seems like any other plastic container.
