New Wave Enviro Products Review & Giveaway -- ENDED

I worked with New Wave Enviro for a review and giveaway of their lunch bag last year. I really like their lunch bag and that why I am excited to be working with the company again to introduce some of the new products they are offering this year.

The company sent me a box of their lunch products to review and all of these products fit right into our eco-friendly life style. DD and DH pack lunches to work and school daily so having enough supplies on hand to prepare their lunches every morning is important to me. I have replaced most of our plastic containers with stainless and glasses containers. For anything that I am going to put food in, I always make sure that it is BPA free.

One of the new products that New Wave Enviro is offering this year is the Tinted Stainless Steel Food Container with Divider. We love that these stainless containers come with different color lids so that if there are many people in your household you could color code the containers to each individual. DD has been using the container for her school lunches and she loves it. The lid is easy for her little hands to open and close. I noticed that if I ever pack anything greasy in this container, it is very easy to wash the grease off -- whereas it would be harder for me to get grease off plastic containers.
The second product we received to review was the Lunchopolis lunch box kit. The kit comes with 1 lead free insulted lunch bag, 4 reusable tinted BPA free containers -- 1 large container, 1 medium size container, 2 small containers and 1 water bottle. All of the containers and the water bottle fit into the bag perfectly. DD loves these containers because they are easy for her to open and close. When DD had this same lunch bag last year, the zipper broke after a few months (I think she was rough with it because sometimes she did not put the containers back properly and she still tried to force the zipper to close.Yeah, that a preschooler for you). This time around, the bag seems more sturdy so I really hope that it will withstand my kid's rough use of it.
The third product I received to review was the Double Wall Hot/ Cold Insulated Stainless Steel Bottle. I am actually using this product and I am totally in love with it. I was using my stainless steel travel mugs for my ice drinks because my reusable bottles did not do a very good job keeping my drinks cold in this hot summer heat. With this double wall insulated stainless steel bottle, my cold drinks stay cold for a long time. I also like that because of the double wall, the outside of the bottle is never too hot or too cold to hold onto.
Last but not least, DD also received a 600ml Nature Flip N' Sip Stainless Steel Water Bottle to review. We have been using reusable water bottles in my household for more than 4 years now. At first, we just bought some plain generic bottles to use. However, since we been using reusable water bottles for a number of years now, we are more picky about what we like to use. While I prefer stainless steel containers with a wide opening on the top. DD is all about the design. The Nature Flip N' Sip Stainless Steel Water Bottle really captures her heart because she loves the panda bear on her water bottle. I also like the idea behind the panda design on this water bottle because a percentage of the proceeds of the Nature Bottle are donated to Pandas International. The mission of Pandas International, a non profit organization, is to ensure the preservation and propagation of the endangered Giant Panda by providing public awareness and education, research funding, habitat preservation and enhancement, and assistance to the China Conservation & Research Centers for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP).

In addition to the great design, DD loves the straw top that flips up for drinking. I also like that this is the prefect size for kids. It hold enough water for DD to drink while she is at the park for a playdate but the water bottle is not so large that it becomes bulky.
We love the products we received from New Wave Enviro to review, we are especially impressed by the new products they are offering this year.
