My husband really enjoyed this gift. It was our 10th wedding anniversary. It came on time and was perfect. Next year I'm trying the wine!

I placed an order for the "Taste of Christmas" gift basket on December 17th, intending for it to be delivered by December 23rd. However, upon receiving feedback from my father-in-law the day after Christmas, it was evident that the majority of the snacks were stale. Generally, vacuum-sealed food has a shelf life of 1-2 months, but it depends on factors such as storage conditions.

It's disheartening that the company, despite anticipating a holiday rush, didn't ensure the freshness of the products in the baskets. I contacted Customer Service on December 26th, reporting the issue through the site and leaving a review. Strangely, they claimed not to have received the email, and my review, except for the 5-star ratings, mysteriously disappeared.

On January 18th, I received an email from a Personal Gift Concierge named Allyson Kilduff, expressing gratitude for my order (singular, though I placed 3 orders). I shared my bad experience with her, but after a week passed without a response, I followed up. She claimed not to have seen my reply initially and offered a replacement, which I declined, requesting a refund instead. She issued the refund, promising it would take 5-7 business days.

Despite being told on January 25th that the refund was being processed within the specified timeframe, I had not received it by February 3rd. Allyson assured me on February 5th that it was still processing, asking for a few more days. As of February 12th, I have yet to receive the refund, prompting me to initiate a dispute with my bank, given their 90-day window.

Considering my negative experience and feedback from others in different states, I advise potential customers to check reviews outside the company's site before placing orders. My recommendation is to avoid ordering from them altogether. In the future, I plan to create my own gift baskets from vendors with known fresh products, citing Home Goods as a reliable option, where snacks even come with expiration dates.

I ordered something to be delivered on a Thursday and I ordered on Monday. They didn't even fill the order. Bad online system, not worth it.

I spent A LOT for the very little I got! What's even more disappointing than the poorly presented, flat/bad tasting cheap "champagne" I was overcharged for was the pitiful customer service I received thereafter! It's like they take your money, then want your feedback-but only if it's positive... If it's negative, then they just ignore you and respond with a generic, half-hearted "oh well" message. I was overcharged for shipping-but somewhere on the page I was supposed to have seen some imaginary addition sign. (It wasn't there) I agreed to pay $25 shipping which is outrageous, but I had no choice in the matter. Yet the final bill invoiced me for $50 because somewhere a plus sign was hidden supposedly. What, was there also another, smaller written $25 sign written also that I didn't see? When I brought that to their attention, I got a backhanded response which indicated I should have seen the two charges I agreed to pay. $50 for two day shipping? Gimme a break! I have a box at the ups store and I know how much they charge to ship something, it's nowhere near that amount! There was supposed to be treats with the champagne, there wasn't -unless you count a tiny, melted little morsel which was stuck inside Walls of the package. The garbage item was only superseded by the even worse customer service I was so unfortunate to have to have endured. I would say that for the $200 I paid, the value of the gift/experience was definitely NOT worth the money. Not even a little bit. There are other companies online to do business with. This place was my last choice. I had to settle because the other places wouldn't ship to Utah. So I guess that's what I get for settling. The worst part of it all is that this company doesn't give two &&@$'s about this or my opinion whatsoever. Nothing was done to remedy the situation. No care was given. Buyer beware! What a joke!

So easy and so fun!

So many options and the delivery time is so quick. I was sending it to a very very small town with not a lot of gift options.
My recipients LOVED it.
