You’re so cute when you say “I’m a big guy, so I eat a lot.” So good of you to review your travel accessories.

[@Wm.Lidgett]

am not a flight attendant, I just so do enjoy your content, and makes me wish i was one

[@purpledame]

Thank you for reviewing these two lunch bags. I just accepted a position as a flight attendant and am looking for my starter lunch bag and as a big girl (5'10" won't disclose my weight either lol) I love to eat but was worried about the ebags being a bit too small for me especially as a junior fa who will be on reserve and will have to commute. Needless to say your video has convinced me that a mojecto would be better for my needs.

[@flightattendantsteven]

Keep an eye out for this bag...they sell out of the black one all the time! Congratulations on those wings!

[@purpledame]

Steven Pereira Thank you I can’t wait to start!

[@sealwhiskerz]

Interesting! I'd never heard of Mojecto before. By the way, I'm eagerly awaiting your video about checking for bedbugs at layover hotels. It's a topic I only rarely see FAs address in their videos.

[@jodijoy8906]

Happy to be one of your plants/fans!! 🌺🌱🌻🌹🌸🌿🌼🌷

[@emily.etcetera]

Thank you Steven! I just got mine in yesterday. I’m a clinical allergy specialist and also losing weight. I wanted a bag that would hold everything for a busy day within arms reach of my desk.

[@georgeblain4104]

Thank you for this video, I bought @mojecto cause of your review. I subscribed and will be a Spirit bee 🐝 soon class December 28th. Greetings!!

[@starrymidnight828]

I enjoy your videos so much! The other day I was having a ton of anxiety and feeling very frazzled and just kind of, on the verge-you know? Anyway, I turned one of your videos on and just closed my eyes and did some breathing. Your voice is so soothing and you’re so genuine and engaged. So thank you for that! Here’s an irreverent question-what dish would be in your hot logic mini, when they bury you? Lol Can you imagine everyone filing in for a visitation and they’re directed to the food and there you are, hot logic mini in hand. Hah. Sorry, that got a little macabre! Great video as always! Always excited when I get a notification! Safe travels and lots of love to you!

[@flightattendantsteven]

Brittanie, you're so kind. I've been ridiculed for much of my life about my voice. It's so weird that you would say it's soothing. As for the dish I would be buried with in my hot logic mini, it would have to be Puttanesca! Or something simple like chicken breast sauteed with TONS of garlic and browned butter and tossed with pasta.

[@crystalheart9]

That hot logic is a brilliant little item and your new lunch bag looks fantastic. I enjoyed the show and tell about your new lunch bag it looks fantastic. If I wanted to cover up the logo on the front of the lunch bag I would try a permanent black magic marker and color over it to match the bag. It may blend in and then you won't notice it as much. Love your videos and you have such a calming voice.

[@annmarie6570]

What a fantastic review you gave on both bags! I have got to get a Hot Logic! Just love your personality.

[@flightattendantsteven]

Ann Marie thanks! I use my hotlogic every trip! I even prefer it over a microwave (if I'm not too too hungry).

[@MaxGolden]

Thanks for the great information. I love the honesty and sincerity in your videos!

[@mattm.1842]

I’ve decided to purchase the hot logic mini 12v version and the mojecto bag. I drive for a living and this set up will save me from spending so much on the go. I currently use the crew cooler ll, for 2 years running now and love it. However, I drink a lot of water and if that mini fits up top then that’s what I need. Thank you as this video helped me out a lot! Subscribed

[@flightattendantsteven]

Oh my gosh...if you loved the Crew Cooler II...you're going to flip over the Mojecto Large cooler! There is SOOO much more room, but the bag doesn't feel too big. I had been tempted to get the Extra Large but when I heard that it wouldn't even fit in the overhead bins on a Southwest flight...I decided to go with the Large. Please, let me know what you think after getting it.

[@ReadingisMagicTV]

I bought mine a few years ago based on this video recommendation and it's still going strong. Always get asked about my bag! It holds a ton of food. Put a large Cooler Shock flat bag in the bottom and I'm good to go. In the top lid zipper compartment I keep napkins, sanitizing wipes, liquor locks, plastic wings for kiddos, crayons, etc. and in the top compartment - dry crunchy things like chips, crackers, nuts, granola bars, vitamins, chocolate. The lower compartment is huge! I bought dual storage containers that fit it and stack perfectly, recently adding some collapsible silicone ones. Tip for salads and greens - wrap their containers in a dry washcloth so they don't freeze. The front zippered flap has all my cutlery and bags of dry condiments (spices, stevia) and also another bag of wet packets (ketchup, mayo, hot sauce) The small side zippered pockets hold hand sanitizer spray bottle, dishwashing liquid and the other holds 3 minis of drink mixers. My lunch bag rivals the weight of my rollaboard at the beginning of a 4 day!

[@flightattendantsteven]

I still use this bag on most of my trips. Mostly because it holds my HotLogic mini so we'll (in that upper section) and that it allows me to hold so much ice! I get really freaked out if I don't have enough ice in my food. LOL

[@ReadingisMagicTV]

@@flightattendantsteven I switched to a Cooler Shock bag that fits the whole base of the lunchbox - will let you know how it performs. It's only about 1/2" high, 10"x10"

[@latricejohnson2566]

@@ReadingisMagicTV hello how is your new bag

[@ReadingisMagicTV]

@@latricejohnson2566 I like its size and versatility but the stitching is not great.

[@basbleupeaunoire]

What an excellent review! I wish all reviewers were this thorough.

[@zackmaher2457]

I am loving the enjoyment you get out of ice packs!

[@cyoohoos]

I may need a HotLogic mini for my desk job.

Great info Steven... your videos are so so informative. Very useful. Thanks so Much.. FROM :Alex in NJ... all the best to you sir.

[@flightattendantsteven]

Alex S. Thanks!

[@WingsofFlight16]

Steven Once again, thank you for the information. And also, thank you for the links below. What was the name of the foldable ice packs ? And also, this is off the subject, but is there a particular roller board that you would suggest? And by the way, I love the second bag and I’ve got to agree with you. That logo is Tacky

[@flightattendantsteven]

I forget the name brand of the ice packs. Most of them are just picked up at the grocery store. Walmart has one type that I use. But, I'm also pretty fine with frozen water bottles or freezer bags full of ice.

[@sparband]

They have the same Mojecto cooler with a hard shell liner on Amazon if you are interested.

[@flightattendantsteven]

Nope! That bag is so big it doesn't fit in some overhead bins! I can't imagine what that weighs when it's full.

[@dongraham5828]

Bummer that Ebags is out of business. My Crew Cooler II lasted nine years until the zipper wore out. I decided to buy a Mojecto based on your review. Thank you!

[@flightattendantsteven]

I hope you like that bag as much as I do! It's practically flawless for a lunch bag.

[@dongraham5828]

@@flightattendantsteven I believe that I will. I'm a courier of 26 years, and close to retirement. Thanks Brother!

[@DJ_FLUX]

Great personality, Steve! Fun guy. :)

[@flightattendantsteven]

Thanks very much!!!

[@wacytay]

Seeing this video 3 years later. Do you still love it? Also, there are so many on Amazon! Which one is this one?

[@flightattendantsteven]

My favorite cooler is by Mojecto...the large, not the extra large. I still love it and find it to be very dependable.

[@wacytay]

@@flightattendantsteven thanks! Unfortunately it’s sold out. I just graduated from SWA U Friday and my first trip is on June 9th. You were such a big part of my success. Thank you!

[@soli4838]

Excellent review! Ty so much!

[@sarahcepeda622]

Thank u , going to get this for my kids carry on snacks for a long haul flight ..mojecto is bigger than ebags

[@vince7735]

The HotIogic would be good for home and the office. I'm going to get one.

[@jmaegm]

How about connecting, like will it work in a car 12v or power inverter, just asking because I travel too but in a semi truck

[@flightattendantsteven]

I'm sure it would work with an inverter. They also sell ones that are wired for whatever they call the car lighter these days. LOL

[@jesss9378]

Great review!

[@sarahcepeda622]

Can I bring the hotlogic mini to my carry on bag to warm my babies food?

[@flightattendantsteven]

I'm sure, but the food does get VERY hot. Probably too hot for a baby's mouth.

[@flightattendantsteven]

I just realized that you said carry on bag....No. Sont bring it on board, you cant use it on an aircraft.

[@DuchessDelphine]

Just came back to this because I need to buy a new bag. I want to go from carrying 3 bags (RB, tote, Lb) to two. Is the mojecto big enough to put my required items (IPad mini, forms, small toilette bag) in the top compartment and still get 4 days worth of food and utensils, condiments within? Yes don’t like how the other meal prep bags look like duffels. Also “D” stands for deniers which is the numbers of yarns woven within each thread used to make up a fabric/material :)

[@flightattendantsteven]

Gosh, I don't know if the top compartment would hold an iPad. If it didn't have a case on it it might hold a iPad mini.

[@DuchessDelphine]

@@flightattendantsteven oki doki... oh and I don’t know if I mentioned this the first time I watched.. D =deniers.. the amount of threads weaved into one piece of yarn that makes up the entire yardage of fabric. Higher the D the more indestructible the bag is 😉.. good morning, Steven!

[@Randilynn66]

My wife is a Sgt with LAPD, I need to get her a new lunch bag.

[@flightattendantsteven]

Randi MacDonald the eBags crew cooler is awesome and not too big.

[@jessic9743]

Do you still use the "Mojecto large insulated cooler bag"? How is it holding up compared to "eBags Crew Cooler II"?

[@flightattendantsteven]

They're both perfect. I use both depending on the length of the trip.

[@quincyjanefudalan3456]

What is the name of the small one? Is it the jr?

[@flightattendantsteven]

Hi there. It's the Crew Cooler II by eBags...not the Jr. Though, it looks small next to my big Mojecto bag.

[@DuchessDelphine]

Circled back to this as I STILL am satisfied with my lunch bag after 2 tried... 🥴.. it’s simply not big enough... I need to get 4 day food AND required items and odds and ends in ONE bag. Tired of rolling 3 bags

[@playhard23]

What ice packs have you found that work best?

[@flightattendantsteven]

The ice mats by Thermos are my favorite. They stay frozen pretty well and are the perfect size.

[@hipretty]

Hey Steven I hope you are well. Thank you for this review! I see this is a couple of years old by now, so I'd be curious to know how the Mojecto held up against the ebag II. It looks so very similar in layout (and it is priced better for the size than the bag crew II? I think.) Your ebag had so little wear and tear...so how has mojecto stood up? The ebag is unavailable everywhere on every amazon account, and I would prefer a bigger bag (although I am with you about their logo, that does not seem to go with the bag 🤪) I am not a big boy like yourself...but eat a lot of "rabbit food" in volume in big containers! Also are you using a pyrex with the mini?

[@sfreedom2007]

Hey I'm first, what's the name of the bigger bag

[@flightattendantsteven]

+Freedom Speaks, Mojecto large cooler bag. They have a smaller version...so make sure you look at the larger one.

[@JG-tk7cn]

Good review. I think Travelpro is overrated. I bought a carry on that people raved about it did not meet my expectations. Do not get the hype.

[@vivianam6132]

good! thxssss

Doesn't put links below Puts links below.........

[@flightattendantsteven]

I decided to add the links after the video had been up for months. Enough people were asking which exact bag... So, hence the links.
