The flavours are great

The first thing I noticed was how many flavours there are, I went with the salted caramel and it tastes like a treat, not like a protein shake. First time ordering from them and the checkout was really easy. The tub arrived in two days and was sealed properly. Mixing is smooth with the shaker and I've been having it most mornings with porridge. Definitely going to try the next flavour.

Not great for the price

Not worth it for the money if you ask me. Ordered on my phone during my lunch break, checkout was fine but the delivery took over a week and the tub arrived with the seal already broken. Customer service replied after three days and just said sorry. Won't be going back.

Flavours are ok but not amazing

The chocolate one tastes a bit chalky and it took ages to mix in the shaker, even with a proper whisk ball. Delivery was next day though which was nice. Fine for the gym I guess.

Best whey i have used

Easily the best whey I've used after years of trying different ones. Low on lumps and the vanilla flavour is smooth without being too sweet. Been on it for months now and nothing to complain about.

The bars for the commute

Ordered a box of the bars for my commute since I'm too tired to cook. Been using them for about a year now. Chocolate peanut is the best one. They are a bit pricey but I know what I'm getting and the delivery has always been reliable.

The creatine gummies

Got the creatine gummies because my mate kept going on about them and I wanted something easier than powder. They're nice enough, sweet and not chalky at all. Problem is the pack said one thing and the pieces were a bit smaller than I expected, so I'm not sure I'm getting the full dose. The site had a chat box which was quick to reply but the answer was a bit vague. Would give them another go maybe.

cheaper per serving than the rest

Compared the price per serving against the other big brands before buying and this came out cheapest for what you get. Bought the large tub on a sale and it's been great. Mixes easily and I'm not paying for fancy packaging. Good value for the money.

needed something for after training

Needed something quick to get protein in after work, I'm on my feet all day. Ordered this and it does the job. Only thing is it's a bit pricey compared to the own brand stuff. Delivery was fine.

my go to protein

Been training for a few years and know my way around supplements, and this is still my go to. The whey mixes clean, sits well after a session, and the cookies and cream flavour is actually good. Reorder comes round every couple of months and I've never had a dodgy batch.

Sorted my post work protein

Needed something to get protein in after my shifts since I'm on my feet all day and never get to cook. Got the chocolate caramel bars and they're honestly so good, taste like a proper treat. Arrived quick and I've already reordered.

the other brand was cheaper

Got this instead of the brand my mate uses because the reviews looked better. Honestly the other one was cheaper and tastes about the same to me. Delivery was quick though and the flavour is decent.

Dearer than the others but worth it

Compared it with a couple of other pre workouts before going for this one, and it's a bit dearer than most. The energy kick is noticeable though and I don't get the jitters like with the cheaper brand I tried first. Ordering was easy and the box turned up on the day I was told. Only niggle is the flavour is quite strong.

Been buying it for years

Been buying this for years now so I know it well. The taste hasn't changed much and it still mixes without clumps. Reorders come round like clockwork and the delivery is usually a day or two. Only thing I'd change is the price creeping up.

better than the other brands i tried

Compared it with two other whey brands from the supermarket before I bought this one, and the difference in taste was obvious straight away. Mixes properly with just a shaker and water, no lumps. The chocolate one tastes like proper chocolate rather than chalk. Bought the big tub so it works out cheaper per scoop than the bags I was getting before.

Needed something after my baby

Needed something to help with my energy levels after having my baby, and a friend suggested this. Ordered the first tub and it arrived quickly. It mixes well and tastes nice enough, though the vanilla is a bit sweet for me.

bought the big tub

Went for the big tub because it works out cheapest per scoop, and I'm trying to keep the monthly food budget under control. The vanilla is nice and mixes fine in a shaker. Delivery was quick and the order came with a free shaker. Good value and no complaints.

tried a few before settling on this

Looked at a few different protein bars before picking this lot, and the thing that stood out was the protein per bar against the sugar. The chocolate coating is decent and they don't taste like cardboard like some of the cheaper ones. Ordered a box of twelve and they arrived well packed. Happy with them so far.

Good protein powder for the money

I bought the vanilla whey to mix into my morning porridge and it has worked well for me. The tub arrived a day later than the site said, which was a small inconvenience, but the packaging was sound and the scoop is handy. I'd be happy to order again.
