Before settling on this I looked at two other meal kits and a supermarket delivery slot, and this one came out cheapest once I'd worked out the price per portion. The box turned up in good nick and the ingredients were fresh. Sign up was painless and the instructions were clear. I've kept it going since the first month.
Read moreTried a few boxes before this one and honestly it is the most expensive of the lot. The veg was fine but a couple of items were smaller than the picture on the site. Delivery came on time though, and the box kept everything cold. For the money I would expect a bit more generosity with the protein.
Read moreI had been relying on the supermarket for ready meal ingredients, but I found the quantities awkward for one person. Compared with buying everything separately, this box works out better and the recipes are not too fussy. The sauce sachets are measured well and the vegetables arrive in good condition. Delivery has been punctual, and I appreciate that the sign up process was not rushed. It has…
Read moreI ordered the veggie box and was pleased with the variety on offer. There's a fair bit of plastic packaging though, which is a shame for the environment. Everything else was good, the cooking took about twenty five minutes.
Ordered a trial box and it was genuinely good value for what turned up. Everything was cold and well packed, and the herbs were still fresh two days later. The app was easy to use when I skipped a week. Will keep going for now.
Compared it with doing a big Tesco shop and it's cheaper per meal once you factor in the waste. Only niggle is the delivery window is a bit wide so I had to wait in one afternoon. Otherwise quality is good and the portions are sound.
First time I've ever tried a meal box and I was surprised how quick the sign up was, took about five minutes on my phone. The recipe I got was a chicken curry and it was lovely, though the portion of rice was a bit light for a hungry lad. Otherwise pretty solid for a first go.
