Wantable Intimates December 2013 Review

Wantable is a subscription box service in that it offers multiple types of subscriptions (cosmetics, accessories, and intimates) for $36 a month, or $40 for a one-time purchase. It allows for a higher level of individual customization since subscribers take surveys detailing their specific preferences. They also let you skip as needed and return the whole box if it is not a match.



The survey for the box was pretty easy. I changed up some of my answers from the last time I got the Intimates box

Wantable impressed me once again with super fast processing and shipping!  I love that about them!

So...what did I get and how did they do? 


PACT Camisole in Lake Blue. Retail Value $28- Hit or Miss? Miss. It is not that cute or flattering in person.

Bella & Canvas Janet 2x1 Sheer Racerback Tank in Berry Retail Value $20- Hit or Miss? This one is tough because Wantable sent me the exact same top back in October.  I liked it in October, but I do not need two. When I contacted Wantable about it, they said that I received the duplicate because I am not an active subscriber, and just received the box as a one off for review. They said that, "An active subscriber (because we know the person's item history) would never receive the same item twice."

Steve Madden Sleepy Shorts Print Mania in Blue Retail Value $30- Hit or Miss? Meh. I guess more of a miss than a hit. I would never pay $30 for these and though they were cute, they were not cute enough to take up that much of the value of the box for me.

Q-T Intimates Boyshort in Animal Print Retail Value $10- Hit or Miss? Hit!I thought these were cute and sort of fun :-)

Bottom Line: This box was a miss for me.  I was really pretty disappointed and had I not received it free of charge for the purposes of review, I would have returned it.  I was really pleased with the selections and value of the October Intimates box I received, but this one just did not impress me.  I know that some people received slipper socks in their boxes and seemed to really enjoy them, but that was not a category I selected. Now all of that said, if you subscribe to Wantable you can simply return your box, so that at least if you did not like the items, you can try again.

Please share if you subscribe or have tried Wantable, and what your experiences have been like. :-)

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Wantable October 2013 Intimates Box Review

Wantable is a rather unique subscription box service in that it offers multiple types of subscriptions (cosmetics, accessories, and intimates) for $36 a month, or $40 for a one-time purchase. It allows for a higher level of individual customization since subscribers take surveys detailing their specific preferences. They also let you skip as needed and return the whole box if it is not a match.

Wantable asked if I would be interested in trying their new Intimates box to review, and I was happy to give it a whirl.  I have never tried anything like it and was really curious as to what they might send.

The survey for the box was pretty easy.  Since I never tried anything like this, I really had to think through what sort of things to select. They offer a lot of variation if desired, and it was fun to guess what I might get.  I realized this was the one subscription where I surely could not count on any real spoilers!

Wantable impressed me once again with super fast processing and shipping!  I love that about them!

So...what did I get and how did they do? 


Coobie Cami in Seafoam Green Retail Value $24- Hit or Miss? Hit! The color was lovely, it fit well, and it definitely fit my profile. I was trying to be creative with my pics for this box, as you can see ;-) 

Bella & Canvas Janet 2x1 Sheer Racerback Tank in Berry Retail Value $20- Hit or Miss? Hit! I actually own a tank like this that has been so well-loved it was due for retirement, so I was really please that they sent this!  It was comfy and fit my profile.

Cass Shaper Short Short in Black Retail Value $34- Hit or Miss? Hit! So, I had checked off shapewear because I do not own much of it, and was curious to see what they might send.  These booty shorts are comfier than they look!

Jockey Skimmies Light Retail Value $20- Hit or Miss? Hit! This one made me giggle when I pulled it out of the package, because it sort of looked like a traditional girdle. But when I tried it on, it was quite comfortable and soft, and being nude, quite versatile.

Bottom Line: Four out of four hits is great!  I really enjoyed this box and was impressed with how well Wantable matched the items to my profile! Wantable's expediting and shipping was excellent, and my items were packed really well.  Bottom line, I would definitely consider using this service again! It was really fun!  There policy makes it pretty risk free, and I have no doubt their customer service would continue to be easy to deal with should anything crop up. Plus, I definitely felt the value exceeded the cost of the box.

Please share if you subscribe or have tried Wantable, or if are considering giving them a whirl!

*Note-I was approached by Wantable and received this box free of charge for review purposes.  Although I am grateful for the opportunity to review it, my opinions about the box and the subscription are truthful and entirely my own.
