The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Anglers who need more than a single compartment often land on a set like the Marine LB-11, which ships as 2 separate plastic pieces for $17.97. That price sits well above the Flambeau 3003's $4.79 but far under the Marine SS212's $49.99, putting the LB-11 in the middle of the pack on cost.
Made from plastic and weighing 16 ounces total, the LB-11 comes in white and is listed under the model feature 651100. The 2 piece setup gives anglers a way to separate different types of bait or split fresh bait from frozen without needing two completely different products.
On reputation, the LB-11 holds a 4.6 star average across 930 reviews, ahead of the 4.5 star marks on both the Flambeau 3003 and Marine SS212, though it falls short of the Frabill 4501's 4.7 stars. Its 400 or more units bought last month is healthier than the SS212's 200 or more, but it still trails the 1,000 or more monthly pace set by both the Flambeau 3003 and Frabill 4501. For anglers who want a 2 piece plastic set at a mid range price, the LB-11's rating and steady demand make it a reasonable pick.

Performance notes
The LB-11's defining trait in the facts available is its 2 piece configuration, splitting storage into two separate plastic compartments rather than one single box like the Flambeau 3003 or Frabill 4501. That structure suits anglers who want to keep two types of bait apart, whether that means live and dead bait or two different lure sets. At 16 ounces total, it sits between the featherweight Flambeau 3003 at 3.2 ounces and the heavier Marine SS212 at 1.83 pounds, landing in a middle weight class for this category. The white color makes contents easier to see at a glance compared to the SS212's black or the Frabill 4501's yellow and white combination. The plastic build matches the Frabill 4501's material choice rather than the polypropylene of the Flambeau 3003 or the synthetic build of the SS212.
What buyers say
A 4.6 star rating across 930 reviews places the LB-11 above the 4.5 star marks on the Flambeau 3003 and Marine SS212, though it trails the Frabill 4501's 4.7 stars. Its review count is modest next to Flambeau's 10,700, but the pattern still points to a well regarded product rather than one with scattered complaints. The 400 or more units bought last month is a meaningful step up from the SS212's 200 or more, showing healthier ongoing demand, even as it runs behind the 1,000 or more monthly pace of the Flambeau 3003 and Frabill 4501. Overall, the numbers suggest steady satisfaction from a moderate sized buyer base rather than runaway popularity.

Frequently asked questions
What makes the Marine LB-11 different from single compartment bait boxes?

How does the Marine LB-11 rate compared to the Frabill 4501?
The LB-11 holds a 4.6 star average across 930 reviews, just under the Frabill 4501's 4.7 stars across 1,900 reviews. The Frabill also costs less at $9.95 versus $17.97 for the LB-11, and it sees far higher monthly buyer volume.
How much does the Marine LB-11 weigh?
The LB-11 weighs 16 ounces total across its 2 piece plastic set. That puts it heavier than the Flambeau 3003 at 3.2 ounces but much lighter than the Marine SS212, which weighs 1.83 pounds, making the LB-11 a middle weight option in this bait storage category.
