HeatsBox Go £135

Inner Dish Set £45

HeatsBox products are designed to simplify your daily routines and look to enhance the lives of individuals and families worldwide. We got the chance to try out the HeatsBox Go which allows you to have healthy hot meals whenever you need them.

The HeatsBox Go provides a battery-powered heating solution to heat your food to the perfect temperature while you’re busy getting things done. I tested out the HeatsBox Go for work lunches for a week and was thoroughly impressed. Upon opening the box, you have the HeatsBox Go which looks like a large lunch box with a grey exterior and red securing tabs. Inside the HeatsBox is a metal inner dish which sits snugly in the outer stainless-steel container.

The main function of the HeatsBox Go is its ability to cook, reheat or warm your food ready for when you need it. It has a pre-set timer perfect for planning when you will need food, so it can be warmed up ready for your lunch break. However, the device can also be controlled through the HeatsBox app, so you can adjust the time setting and heating modes with ease to suit your schedule. 

The inner dishes are a great size able to fit 925ml in each, so were perfect for me to fill up with things like noodles or pasta in the morning ready for lunch. We got to test out the Inner Dish Set too which is great for meal prepping, to portion up meals ready to take with you and pop in the HeatsBox Go for lunch throughout the week. Even the included dividers of the HeatsBox and the Inner Dish Set were great for separating different parts of your food for a more enjoyable lunch. Also, all the inner dishes and lids are dishwasher safe making them super easy to clean at the end of each day.

Over the week I had pre-set the HeatsBox to have my food ready for 12 pm. Roughly 20 minutes before lunch the HeatsBox Go would turn on and start heating my food. I was sceptical at first as to how hot my food would actually be, but within just a short while my lunch was perfect and ready to eat just in time for my lunch break. The only main requirement of the HeatsBox is that it needs to be sat on a flat surface, but this wasn’t too inconvenient and made a great addition to my desk for a short while leading up until lunch.

Usually, I fear my food spilling into my bag after a long commute with my normal slightly leaky lunchbox. However, I was pleased to see that upon arriving to work there was no mess or leaking, so it really did stand up to its 100% leakproof claims for me personally.

The HeatsBox Go charges via a USB-C cable which is included in the box, and I found lasted roughly 2 lunches before needing to be recharged. Whilst this isn’t the best battery life, it also can be charged using a battery power bank in case you forget to charge it a home - so it isn’t too much extra hassle. Overall, the HeatsBox Go is a great choice for those with hectic schedules who don’t have time or the facilities to heat up lunch on the go. If you don’t need the rechargeable aspects of the HeatsBox GO, the company also has a range of plug-in options which are great for having on your desk ready to heat your meals at your convenience – great, especially when the office does not have a microwave!

I imagine this would be great for those working outside on a construction site to have a warm lunch ready and waiting for them when your lunch break comes around. This would also be great for nurses who are rushed off their feet all hours of the day but can be sure that when their break comes around, they will have a nice hot meal waiting for them. For me, the HeatsBox Go and Inner Dish Sets were perfect for planning out my lunches, and using up leftover food, all without having to leave my desk or buy hot food on the go.

HeatsBox has clearly revolutionized the lunch market with its temperature-controlled heating solution – and we are big fans! If you are looking for a new way to eat food on the go, or want to treat someone in your life to the freedom of hot lunches on demand, the HeatsBox Go and Inner Dish Set are the perfect choice for you.
