Project Complete!
Project Brief
Next stage: Nancy’s product idea needs a form direction. We will start you off with 5 sketches. Do you have some? If you do, go ahead and send them our way. Vote, rate, comment, design —> earn influence.
REFRESHER:
Imagine being able to take (yogurt, fruit, and juice)or (milk, cereal, and fruit) or any combination of a breakfast trio that you like in one easy container that fits easily in your car’s cup holder. The Breakfast 3Go is a container that allows easy storage of these breakfast foods for easy access while either driving, or eating in the morning. It is small, non-cumbersome and can fit in the cup holder of your car. It is easily attachable and detachable for easy cereal/milk/fruit storage. The best part is that it has cool gel insulation on all parts to keep your juice, milk, or fruit cool. Now you can save money while eating healthy in the morining.

Show AllI just wanted to add that I love the style of rendering used to illustrate the product.
This can be used for more than food ! Imagine kids in the back seat with crayons, animal crackers and toy soldiers.
1. Do the containers seal or would you have cerial/milk flying everywhere?
2. Balance will be thrown off when liquid in the mug is gone. This could never be stable while sitting on a desk.
3. A lot of cars do not have two cup holders or even that much space.
4. How do you drink from it. Do you have to unhitch they trays from the mug to take a sip? Even if you can't unhitch you can't drink from it...there are no lids
5. Spoon?
This design looks difficult to clean and each container is so shallow, I would be concerned for spillage.
This is looking a little over-complicated for actual, practical use.
The trays are not deep enough to hold any meaningful amount of food (as Louis Martens indicated above). I don't know how you'd eat out of that thing if you were "on the go," as the product description hints at.
The rotating design requires two cupholders for stability as drawn (or at least one cupholder with a lot of free space next to it for the trays' overhang. If you put it on a surface to eat from, and were eating from the middle or top tray, you've got a potential imbalance in the structure caused by the swung-out tray.
Finally, it's easier to eat out of cylindrical shape than one with squarish corners. You can just drag your spoon or the side of your fork around the walls. With a square, you leave behind what's left in the corners.
I'm voting for cylinders.
I hope no one thinks they can drive while using this.
I voted here.
Great design, though the small height of each tray narrows the usability.
Why not stick to only 2 trays instead of 3 ;and make them higher (equially or one low and one high tray).
I like this one a lot. Here are some comments:
1) It looks like one can access all the compartments using just one hand, important whilst driving!
2) It would be important for the container to be air tight and water tight to avoid spillages.
3) There should also be a fastener to tie it all in together so that one can carry the whole set with one hand.
4) Would be good if the final design is flexible enough so that the different components can be sold in modular units, so people can add and remove extra containers as they wish.
How about having the travel mug having half a space for milk, and the other half side for cereal. One side to just pour the cereal in your mouth and the other side to drink sip the milk.
