Will the Frio stay cool in a canvas type lunch bag, I have to take mine to work - see where it has to have air ????

I have kept in my purse and it still stayed cool. I really love my Frio pouch works great. The way it works is when the water inside the little beads begin to evaporate it creates a cooling effect and it is cool enough to keep insulin or other medications cool. If you have other questions you can go to Frio.com and get the phone # to call directly to the lady (who is a nurse) and her husband that invented the Frio wallet. They are very nice and will answer any question you might have.

Unfortunately, when I stored hot and cold it did not work so well. I packed chilli in the bottom two compartments and chips and cheese in the top. The cheese melted by lunch time. Sometimes if I have to pack cold items that are more ilkely to melt or need to stay cold I'll put an ice cube and wrap it in a saran wrap and place it with the cold food.

ABSOLUTELY, YES! Also love the lg bag. I haven't had to keep something cold for "up to 10 hours", but it has worked for me for 6 hours. There's no frig at work, so the bag will keep my lunch cold from 6am until lunch. Lg bag great for carry cold drinks for the boys when they are playing sports. Lots of times they are usuable, that they work and that they are so very convenient.

Not 100% sure but if the bus is air conditioned you will probably be ok. All I know is I had cold cans of beverages on a golf course and they were warm in an hour and a half. You may want to put one of those plastic ice blocks in the bag just to make sure.

It's slightly wider than an average paper lunch bag. Not water proof but I suspect it can handle some moisture inside. I never tried. It's durable.

No. It is not insutated so it does not keep food hot or cold. However, if you put it in an insulated bag, that would help to get you to lunch time. I put a freeze/ice pack in the insulated bag and it stays very cold because the metal transfers the cold. I love my lunchbots and they hold up very well.

we carried my son's to a baseball tournament and I kept it in my bag and it stayed cool like it was suppose to. Not cold ,but cool. I hope this helps.

I love this bag. The re-useable ice pack keeps your food cold for 4 to 5 hrs. It's not refrigerator cold, but it is better then any other lunch bag I have owned. I hope this helps

based on the measurements you have provided, I would say no. In order to keep the food fresh, it needs to be banded. These Bentgo boxes fit wonderfully in their own insulated bag available from Bentgo and they also fit nicely in the insulated 31 lunch bag.

Nope! This is a Japanese plastic one, with an inner seal, but it is not watertight, and it needs a lunch box band (think thick rubber band) to keep it closed. The regular Japanese lunchboxes are all meant to be eaten at room temperature. If you really want something that's hot, you need a thermal lunch jar, which Amazon sells a few different versions.

It is insulated but I'd have hot lunches in a thermos container of some sort. This is a rather large lunch back. Look at the measurements. If you had hot items in a regular tupperware container, I'd think it'd only stay warm a short amount of time. I used this bag for my 3rd grader and she took soup a lot but I had put her hot items in one of these: THERMOS FOOGO Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel 10-Ounce Food Jar, Blue/Yellow

It is not insulated. Will not keep food warm or cool. Perhaps putting it in an insulated bag to keep it warm?

Hi. This bag may have the same type of insulation since it works very well. The zipper bag inside helps to mantain the cold. Everything is close tight. The gel ice that comes with it (Cold Pax) it's great because it maintais cold better than other brands I have tried. What I have found to be very useful (specially in long trips) is to use two gel ice packages (one in each of the inside bags) instead of one. The advantages of this product over a cooler is that it is much easier to handle than a cooler

Depends if you have any bottles. That was my biggest problem and the temperature was barely cool. The bag is skinny 4x6 inches. I can slip my hand into it.

It's not a "dainty" cooler. I rather like it - I can take lunch AND supper in it - with ice to keep the supper cold for many hours. Lunch on the outside to stay warm, salad on the outside. I'd probably hate to lose it!
