Poor packaging

For the amount I paid. The box was very small so each item just looked unpresentable/thrown in the box. Each item could have been individually wrapped considering I paid for the box and wrapping and so it didn’t look pleasing but cheap. I liked the content available (very nice selection of things to add) but the packaging was very very dull. It didn’t look inviting at all.

Hi Nishi - thank you so much for your review. We appreciate all feedback. I'm sorry that you felt the packaging was dull. We have tried to ensure our packaging is as eco-friendly as possible and affordable so maximum value lies in your gifts. I'm sorry on this occasion that it didn't meet your expectations. We will be adding further wrapping options in the future so we will take this feedback onboard. Many thanks for taking the time to write us a review. Kind regards Helen

Great online gift parcel service, ordered a few times now successfully

Very satisfied with their service and gifts. I remember getting their first parcel during the pandemic and since I’ve ordered several packages. The latest one was a success again. This time I ordered it from abroad, and again so happy with their website and how I can choose the items myself. Nice products and a very quick delivery. Would highly recommend this online gift delivery.

The miscarriage package was well…

The miscarriage package was well received. I couldn’t see what was in it as it was sealed so cant comment on the quality.
I’ve given 4 stars as I messaged your company about the contents and never received a reply.

Hi Jayne - I'm so sorry you didn't receive a response from your message. Occassionaly these end up in a Junk folder but it's still very rare they are missed. My apologies that yours was on this occassion. We have put changes in place to make sure this doesn't happen in the future.

Prompt and as Promised

I ordered a care package for my son and it arrived quickly and was well-appreciated! The products were high quality and I'll definitely order from here again.

Wrong package

I ordered something for my friend and she got something I had not ordered, with a card I did not order. No reply to my customer service query so far.

Great products, website nees work

I love the product choices - sustainable, thoughtful, and unique. However, there were issues with the website as it kept getting stuck or refused to load. The user flow only allows you to add items to a cart from one tab, which means if you open multiple tabs to see items in detail, you have to go back to the original tab, search for the item, and then add it to the cart. I lost cart information several times. Also, many items I wanted were out of stock. On the positive side, shipping and payment processes were really easy and organised.

Fun to use, stunning final product

The shipping was fast, the software to do the photobooks was easy and also very very fun to use (I would suggest to add the possibility of changing colours freely for the pre-created graphic elements customers can add). The final product makes my pictures look like professional pictures!
