Review of Oddbox


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great choice and quality, reliable and convenient.

I chose Oddbox partly because they allow replacement of items included in a box, up to 4 days before delivery. This is really useful to me, as although I like to eat a wide range of veg, there are some that I'm less likely to use. Having said that, on the odd occasion when I've forgotten to check the contents, I've enjoyed the challenge of finding ways to use everything.

The recipes on the website are excellent and I always check them out when I unpack my box - the leaflet included is also really helpful and I usually make the recipe in there, too.

I'm veggie/plant-based, so having the box delivered means that I can stock up on dried goods, herbs and spices etc, and not have to keep going to the supermarket where I end up buying stuff I don't need. The 1-2 person veg box gets me through the week nicely and I eat really healthily! I love waking up on a Saturday and remembering that my veg box is in the porch waiting for me - my fridge has never been so clean and organised! There's also something a bit magical about the way it appears overnight, like a mushroom in a field!

I do regularly add extras to my box, as well, if I'm having people over for a meal, for example. Everything is so convenient and I'm definitely finding it more user-friendly than other options I've tried.

Ridiculous wait time in the coffee shop

When we got to the coffee shop there were only 7 or 8 people in front of us, so we thought we'd chance it. 15 minutes later and there are still 3 people in front of us.the queue has got longer and the people at the back have got 10 in front of them. Only 2 staff. This is the first time we've bothered staying for a while as the queues are always like this at weekends. Really frustrating - do better, Debbie's.

Review of Wecandoo

Please note that I've given a date for the experience because I can't post a review without it - ie if you don't actually get the experience you can't leave a review. But the problem is that it's proving very difficult tp obtain any dates from the workshop provider - see below.

Bought a gift for my partner and he was slow to use it as he was waiting to see if a friend wanted to go with him. He was unable to choose a date with the guy providing the workshop so had to register to receive an offer of an available date. 3 months later he's still waiting. I've contacted Wecandoo but all they can say is that they're not responsible for allocating dates. I get this, but I don't see why they can't communicate with the provider. They've also suggested changing the workshop but I chose this one specifically because my partner is interested in blacksmithing and there isn't another that I want to replace it with. They're quick to take the money but not really interested in ensuring that you get what you've paid for.

Great products, easy to use website, well packaged items and surprisingly quick delivery in current circumstances. Can't wait to visit the shop later this year (fingers crossed)
