Is Woolworths’ Fissler container promo worth the points? Here’s my honest review

woolwroths fissler container promo

Woolworths is back with a new collectables range that isn’t Ooshies or Bricks. Now, you can swap container credits for Fissler glass and stainless steel containers, including the stainless steel bento box that everyone seems to be talking about. I picked one up, put it to the test, and here’s what I really think.

How does the Woolworths Fissler container promotion work?

You’ll collect 1 container credit whenever you spend $20 in one transaction at Woolworths or Metro, whether you shop online or in-store. Redemptions for the 8-piece collection and limited-edition Kids Bento Box started on 9 September 2026. The offer continues until 1 December 2026, unless stock runs out earlier.

To redeem the bento box without paying, you’ll need 40 credits. Alternatively, Woolworths lets shoppers combine cash and credits, so you can claim one sooner. That part-payment arrangement applies across the entire collection.

Who is Fissler?

With a history spanning more than 180 years, Fissler is a German cookware company known for its durable stainless steel products. This collection consists of standalone containers for leftovers, packed lunches, and meal prep.

Bento Box (930ml) review

40 credits × $20 = $800 in Woolworths spending

My rating: 9/10

The reason for my score:

This is a good-looking, practical bento box. The only thing worth noting is that it can’t be microwaved, unlike the other Fissler containers in the promotion. Personally, I don’t need to microwave my kid’s lunchbox, but it’s still good to keep that in mind.   

Specifications:

  • 930ml total capacity and a compartmentalised stainless steel interior
  • Suitable for the dishwasher
  • You can’t use it in the microwave or oven, which sets it apart from the other Fissler containers
  • Leak-proof lid

Pros

  • No liquid passed between compartments during my orange juice test
  • Sturdy stainless steel construction that feels substantial rather than flimsy
  • It actually looks good and doesn’t scream ‘freebie’

Cons

  • You can’t reheat your lunch in the bento box, so you’ll need to move it to something else if you want it hot
  • At 608g, it’s heavier than a plastic Bento Box, which could be a pain if you’re packing it in a child’s school bag

How my review went

The containers look stylish, and based on the quality of the Fissler pans included in Woolworths’ previous promotion, I expected this collection to hold up well in everyday use. Still, I wanted to put the Bento Box to the test.

The three compartments made me curious: would anything actually leak between them? I put overnight oats in one section and, since orange juice was the only liquid I had, poured that into another. I wasn’t gentle, and nothing leaked. Most people probably won’t pack orange juice in their bento box, but this tells me things like cut fruit, salad dressing, or dip should stay put too.

Stainless steel containers (800ml and 1.2L)

Along with the bento box, I tried two lidded stainless steel containers.

800ml container — requires 30 credits and $600 in spending, or $300 in spending plus $15

  • How I used it: kept leftovers inside, then reheated the food in the same container
  • My verdict: it stored and heated the leftovers without any problems

1.2L container — requires 34 credits and $680 in spending, or $340 in spending plus $17

  • How I used it: stored leftovers before reheating them directly in the container
  • My verdict: there were no problems with either storage or heating

Both stainless steel containers can go in the microwave (just vent the lid and keep it under 2 minutes) and are oven-safe if you remove the lid. The Bento Box can’t do either, so the bigger containers are more useful if you want to prep and reheat meals. Also, you can mix and match the lids on the stainless steel containers (800ml and 1.2L).

Is the range worth your credits?

Woolworths says the part-payment option must be divided equally between container credits and cash. Here’s how the numbers work out across the pieces I tested:

ItemCreditsFull credit spend equivalentCredits + cash
Bento Box (930ml)40 credits$80020 credits + $20
Stainless steel container (800ml)30 credits$60015 credits + $15
Stainless steel container (1.2L)34 credits$68017 credits + $17

Bottom line: don’t buy extra groceries just to get the containers. If you’re already planning to spend $400 to $800 at Woolworths before December, it’s basically a freebie for scanning your card. But if you go out of your way to spend more just for the credits, you’re not really getting a bargain.

That said, with the last pan promotion, it was very easy to accrue enough points to get the whole range without spending anything extra.

How to earn credits more quickly

  • Anyone who joins Everyday Rewards between 2 and 29 September 2026 receives 5 bonus credits
  • Download the Everyday Rewards app from 2 September to 1 December 2026 to collect an additional 5 bonus credits

Where can you redeem Container Credits?

While both online and in-store purchases can earn Container Credits, you must redeem them in-store at Woolworths or most Metro locations across Australia. All products are subject to availability while stocks last.
