I saw them in a Bed Bath & Beyond catalog about six months ago. I too thought WOW great product. Like you, when I am with clients I don't always have access to a refrigerator so I can eat a healthly lunch. I bought the Salad Shaker because I liked it was a square container. Most all-in-one salad containers I had found were cup shaped. For the most part it works great. The faults are the lids design makes it difficult to clean all the nooks created by the fork/knife holder and the dressing cup. The dressing cup is also hard to clean. I found a bottle brush the best way to clean both. The other fault (I likely purchased a defective one) is the ice pack leaks blue gel. I realized this after using cleaning it the first time. As I replaced it to the freezer, the blue gunk started to drip out as it expanded. It stained the freezer. Since I wanted to use it the next day, I did not have a chance to return it to the store. I created an easy work around by placing the ice pack in a cheap old fashioned plastic baggy (non-zip type). I prevents the pack from leaking and makes the product easier to clean. I slip of the baggy and for the most part the lid is clean. I have not tried the other products (since I have no need) but I still like the concept. -Kim Hi Lauren-
