HOTLOGIC Mini Heated Lunch Box- Portable Electric Food Warmer for Men and Women - Great for Work, Office, and Construction - Cook, Reheat, and Eat on the Go - 12V - Red

* update. This is the 2nd one i have purchased in the last 6 months. Both have died on my and i dont know why. The fuses are still good in both of them. A company rep said to send them back for my money back or a replacement.* I used to own one and lost it so I bought another. These are better than the fully enclosed hard shell style for reheating/heating food in small rectangle plastic or glass dishes if you want to store the leftovers should you not eat the entire container. This one is bare bones... no temp regulation, or temp sensor but does heat relatively quickly and food will get very hot to the touch. Drawback is you need a 12v power outlet to use and if you have only one, better buy a splitter so you can still charge your electronic devices. Very good investment if you want warm/hot food in a car, truck, or equipment like a crane.

My husband got this for me as a gift - LOVE this & works great! I am a courier so I'm in the car all day... this is great for having a hot meal during the work day!

My husband farms and during planting and harvest has to be in the combines or tractors all day and night and gets so tired of cold sandwiches or cold food. I saw this one day and thought about giving it a try - and my husband has never been so happy! Now all the guys he works with are buying them. LOL. He has warmed up pizza, cooked hotdogs, warmed up pre-cooked bacon, hamburgers....he said he just puts the food in there, plugs it in and about 45 minutes to an hour later and tada - warm food. He said it makes the cab of the combine smell so good! He said it is a savior to him because he doesn't have to keep eating the same deli sandwiches over and over. Best thing ever. Will probably buy a few more to keep on hand! Perfect for traveling. Working in jobs like his. Working on jobs you are on the road a lot and want to avoid fast food or spending money eating out. You must have the correct plug in for this - it is NOT a wall outlet type! But I have seen they make those too!

I’m a delivery driver for work so I’m on the road all day long. My coworker told me about this product and it’s a life changer. I have hot, perfectly-cooked lunches daily because of the Hot Logic. I recommend a glass Pyrex container to put your food in while warming it up. I usually place my container in the Hot Logic and turn it on about 2 hours before I plan on taking my lunch and it warms my lunch up perfectly. In my opinion, it warms my food inside and out better than a microwave would (after 2 hours of it being in the Hot Logic) I highly recommend this product!

Man do I love this thing. I do blue collar work and this has been my saving grace to keep from eating out. Next to no complaints when it comes to how it works with the exception of you need a second container to keep it cold if you want certain foods to last. It heats leftovers very quickly and cooks from frozen most foods. It's my favorite for pasta sauces like Alfredo because is doesn't separate the oil from the cheese like it would in a microwave. The reason why it's 4 instead of 5 stars: The quality of the insulating material is just not very durable. My first one, the heating pad worked exceptionally the entire time I had it but the insulation because flaking off and coming undone just after the first year mark. Easily fixed by registering the lunchbox and hopefully of this second one does the same, then I can get it replaced. This second one is obviously newer but this complaint is that the microwave safe container they sent with it arrived broke. Overall, absolutely the best lunchbox I've had when I need to eat on the go. Worth the money to me.

The HotLogic Mini surprised me by how well it performs using minimal wattage. There are plenty of heated lunchboxes out there with higher wattage that are probably great. However, heating food as well as this does on 50 watts is an impressive feat. I have the 12-volt and the AC version, and both work great with small power stations. The zippered, insulated carrier has good quality and nice colors (I have a red 12-volt and a blue AC) with a convenient pocket for storing the power cord.

I’m a local intermodal truck driver who works out in the morning and meal preps 2 meals a day for the entire week while at work following my 16 fast. I’ve taken care of it as it’s been great! A lot of these shippers don’t even have restrooms let alone somewhere you can warm up food or even get past the caged area past the S/R door. Followed the instructions heat it up on its own for 15-20 minute then place your food inside and in an hour boom it’s hot and ready to eat. I noticed that hot and ready temp being the first to go when my food wasn’t as hot and then one day plugged it up and nothing! Didn’t heat up at all. Purchased in Jan and died beginning of this month Jul so 6 months was all I got at 2 meals a day. So maybe if you do 1 you can get a year out of it? Definitely a bummer.

I gave this to my son as one of his Christmas gifts. My intention was to save him money so he would not have to buy lunch everyday. He never used it but his wife took it over. She packs last night’s left overs in it and is not only saving money but eating healthier. Bravo! I recommend this for anyone with either of those two goals in mind.
