Hot Logic Food Warming Tote 12V, Lunch, Black

Great to have heated lunches now and not be using a gas station microwave or eating cold sandwiches any more. I drive truck for a living in town and works great. Depending on what you are heating up (frozen or not) I usually plug it in for 1 hour. If it’s is only soup probably would be less time. Find a container that is microwave safe. The container your pre made meals come in at the grocery/Walmart is probably not adequate and may melt. Find a better container. I saw someone with a melted container and they probably is a cheap container that came with the food they bought. I use a glass container or a plastic microwave / dishwasher safe container to reheat my food in. Also works fine in my Tandem truck with 24 volt batteries. Will be buying another one for a friend.

Great little cooker, cooks my dinner every night at work while i am driving, i thought it wasn’t working at first but i was putting my mobile on it and the air in the cooker couldn’t get to the top, so once i realised this i rigged a thing for it to keep the handle up so air gets to the top and around my dinner from with in the bag, works well now, defrosts my dinner every night in about 2 hours or less, don’t put things on it! It won’t cook otherwise.

The handy little bag is one of the best investments I have made and highly recommend to truck drivers and anyone else who spends anytime out and about and doesn’t have access to a microwave or other food heating device. As a local trucker with a day cab, my space is very limited as I don’t have a sleeper compartment, which many drivers who do have one, add a microwave to their trucks. Being that I am constantly on the road driving and where I work there are very few truck stops that are convenient for me to stop at so many times I would end up eating cold food that I would pack or if I had the chance to stop at a truck stop, eat junk food. With this food warmer I am able to enjoy a hot meal when the time comes for me to take my 30 minute break. With it having a plug that goes into a cigarette lighter/12v vehicle plug I don’t have to purchase a power inverter. The average time it takes to heat up food is about a hour to 2 hours depending on what you’re heating up as well as fully cook raw food such as chicken and beef in about 2-3 hours. While not as fast and convenient as a microwave, with some time management I can easily have my food ready when I am ready to eat. It does get very hot but not hot enough to boil water so there’s little to no chance that you will burn your food. Many food prep containers and Tupperware will fit and work perfectly. It is not too big and too small. Provides enough space to have a healthy portion of food and small enough to be out of the way if you have passengers or other things in your vehicle. I doesn’t require very much power to operate so I can plug it in while my truck or car isn’t running and not drain the battery to the point of needing a jump. So far I have heated up leftover tacos and it didn’t dry out the tortillas and I have cooked a steak in it as well. It’s a perfect option if you want to have hot food when there’s no way of heating up food available. Just be careful when handling after it has been turned on as the heating plate gets hot and with make the bottom hot so always grab it by the handle and set it on something that will tolerate the heat!

We use this to keep a “to go” meal warm on the way home from a restaurant. We’ve had it for 4 years and it still works perfectly. Buying another one so we don’t have to move it from car to car.

So handy!! I'm a delivery driver so this works perfect for heating up my homemade lunches/dinners on the go! Zipper is a little flimsy but either than that, no complaints.
