is this flat? And would it be okay used in a lunchbox, not leaking if laying sideways??

Its not perfectly flat, it has a bit of a curve to it so that it fits in your hand well. Not sure if that makes sense or not. I dont think I would try it in a luchbox. I'd be afraid it would fall over and leak. If you could somehow guarantee that it would stay upright it might be ok.

I would trust it in a lunchbox. Never had an issue with leaking. The design is great. It is slightly curved but nothing too dramatic. It would be safe to call it mostly flat.

There's a plastic domed lid that very tightly seals the bowl. Just don't put super hot liquids in it, and it's good for traveling. Yes, it goes on upside down, and unless you're concerned with the appearance of your food - soup, salad, rice - whatever else you'd want to put in it, it's a small price to pay for the cuteness. I haven't had any problems with leaks even when the bento is assembled for carrying. Best recommendation is just not to overfill it. Hope this helps! It's been one of my favorite Amazon purchases.

Once this is fully saturated you can fold it. I have folded it and doesn't seem to make it leak. But make sure it is fully hydrated.

We tend to use softer containers for those activities because they're easier to pack. But I imagine we'll use some for camping when we have carriers that the Klip Its fit well into. Odd that you mention not leaking because that's the biggest complaint people have. The label says airtight, not watertight. I have no complaints. Hosts in NZ had them and we so enjoyed Klip Its that we ordered as soon as we returned to US.

It is a pretty thick fabric lunchbox - my best guess would be if something spilled it would soak into the fabric until it got saturated and then it would leak. It is not waterproof material.

I was leak free till my daughter dropped it. It leaks if you leave it on its side now...

NOT leak proof!!!! I would put dry goods in it. If you are able to transport it while keeping it upright, then I would put thicker sauce in there, but definately nothing runny.

As long as it remains upright then it will be fine but it will leak if on its side

That is what I wanted to know...... It is very helpful to know that it leaks if it is stored horizontally. Thanks.

Yes, it is flat. We haven't tried it because we ordered it about the time we were finished canning. I feel confident that it will work for us.

Did not leak on me, but I kept it level and did not turn sideways in my lunchbag. Fairly tight seal, but if jossled too much might pop off.

My (10 year old) daughter regularly uses these in her lunch for soups, salad dressing, 'dips' and yogurt. Once I showed her how to 'burp' the lid, she has not had any problem with leaking. I hope this helps. We love these containers.

I have two of these - it is microwaveable.....it has an insert for steaming things. But, I wouldn't consider it leakproof. I put soup in it - but I do not turn it upside down. There is a tight seal when you put the strap on top - but, again, I wouldn't just throw it around with soup in it. Hope this helps!To clarify - the lids just sit on top of the containers. They are not threaded and there is no real seal/snap on type - the strap holds the lids tightly to the containers.

The vented lids come OFF in the lunch box, if you don't secure them with rubber bands! I use two rubber b ands to secure them, the lids do not snap on like you'd expect. The vents on the lids can be closed, but I don't know if they are "leak proof". I recommend laying them right side up to transport. Actually, I would recommend going to Target and buying the Rubbermaid ones!

The tank lid is not exactly flat. But you can place a small item or a tray. I keep a little glass bowl filled with soaps/shower & bath fizz products which look pretty and smells nice too!

There is a small depression -- about 1/2 inch wide and maybe an 1/8 inch deep --running around the edge of the bottom. So, not completely flat. Also, note the bin sides are slightly angled out, not meeting at a 90 degree angle with the bottom.

I have not tried it in a lunchbox, but I am pretty sure it would't leak there. I have had it in my gym bag tilted over, and it didn't leak.
