A well made long term investment

This lunchbox is a breath of fresh air in a world of disposable junk. It is well made, sturdy, and works great. It gets a lot of compliments and will last you a life time. This is much better than the cheaper alternatives out there and I highly recommend it.

Dad’s old lunch pail

Here’s the way I purchased my new 12 inch.
Some time in the early 1970’s, my father’s tin lunch pail broke after 10 years of service in the forge shop where he worked.
So he bought a new L.May 10inch box.
He retired in 1984, and I began using it.
And it is still fine, but one of the latches wore out. I when on line to find a replacement one, and found your web site.
Dad worked 8 hour shifts so the 10 inch was adequate, but I work 10 hour shifts so needed the 12 inch. Thank you making a product that will last. 50 years.

Wow, what a heartwarming journey you shared with us! We are truly touched by the story of your L.May 10-inch lunch pail that has served your family faithfully for decades.

It's customers like you, who pass down our products through generations, that remind us of the lasting impact of quality craftsmanship. Thank you for choosing L. May!

I bought these to give away. I’ve been a hard rock miner for 29 yrs and have always enjoyed coworkers stories of your lunchboxes. Most have had them for yrs and are still in good working order, just maybe not as pretty as they were, when they were new.

Thank you for sharing your personal connection to our products. We are thrilled to know that our lunchboxes have been a part of your coworkers' stories and have stood the test of time in the rugged environment of the mines.

We sincerely appreciate your support and the trust you and your coworkers have placed in L. May
