### 3/5 — It’s ok most of the time

*2022-09-05, version 3.1.9*

I give this 3 stars because it’s just ok. The convenience and quantities are worth it some of the time. However, in recent months the app isn’t working properly. It keeps saying Oops bad request. Sometimes while adding items to cart, sometimes while trying to check out. I’ve gone several days before being able to complete my purchase and even giving up altogether and just going to the grocery store. In the few years that I’ve been using Boxed, several times items come damaged. Tons of leaked items, items opened or dented. At first, finding a way to contact them through the app was not user friendly but after a couple of times of that happening I figured it out. Prices have increased, items aren’t available or go out of stock, items ship from a third party and take weeks to arrive with no communication….so having said all that. Three stars is all they get. I went from ordering very often for our large family to maybe once every couple of months now.

### 5/5 — Deliver

*2022-08-27, version 3.1.9*

They have been delivering it to the entrance of my apartment building I have trouble lifting the boxes to get them to my actual apartment in the past they left it outside my door where I could slide them into the room is there a way they could deliver them to my apartment they would need to push my number in so they can get through the door thank youWhen they push my room number eight phones me and I push the number to let him in

### 1/5 — Tried to order but acct got suspended

*2022-08-20, version 3.1.8*

I placed my very first order yesterday and within 30 minutes after successfully completing (and paying) for my items I received an email that my order had been cancelled. The email did not include an explanation as to why the order was cancelled, but gave me the option to contact Support. I reached out to their Support team via email and they responded to me that my account had been suspended, and to reach out to their Risk department for more help. I don’t feel the need to waste my time in going back and forth with a company I’ve never even ordered from about why they decided to randomly suspend my account. If this is how you treat prospective customers good luck hanging onto them.

### 5/5 — Boxed Up Some Excellence

*2022-07-29, version 3.1.8*

I have been a Boxed Customer from almost their beginning; long before ads and going public in the stock market! Handy dandy place to buy bulk items. Sometimes these items are not less than what i can buy at my local Kroger or Target BUT most of the time Boxed DOES beat their prices! The convenience to buy bulk online from an ethical company is awesome and not have to DRIVE and waste gas going to a Costco or Sams or BJs. Over the years Boxed has added many new products. I especially LOVE Prince and Spring quality products which are a Boxed brand and cost less! I highly recommend using Boxed as your regular go to for many bulk items to be delivered efficiently and well packaged without damage!

### 1/5 — Great Store. Terrible App.

*2022-07-14, version 3.1.8*

Boxed is a good store. We live what is an 80 mile round trip from reasonably priced shopping. So online shopping is great especially given today’s energy prices. 
    BUT. This App is pretty much worthless on an iPad Pro. 
  I had seven items in my Cart from the website. Downloaded the app, signed in, and it couldn’t locate my Cart. Had to return to the website to place my order. 
   Had an issue today with my order, (FedEx apparently kicked our M&Ms from point a to point b). And the “Contact Us” feature was not only a little tricky to find, it sucked. I’d type my name, then when I went to input my order#, it Dumped me back to the Boxed Home Screen. Like three times. I gave up and went to their site on Safari to deal with it. Terrible App.

### 5/5 — Supplied and Relieved!

*2022-02-28, version 3.1.4*

Well this beats paying membership fees and lifting bulky items in and out of the car! My items arrived on time as promised, well packaged and in addition the shipping was free.  As this was my first order I decided to stick to non-perishables to see how it worked.  Some of my favorite items are available on Boxed so I look forward to ordering more in the near future.  Very pleased with this company.  Highly recommended.

### 3/5 — Shipment issue

*2022-02-07, version 3.1.3*

Well if you would fix shipment isues. I would be greatful. And give an awesome review it’s Convenient for us to order from Boxed and have it delivered because I’m a senior and my husband just had a stroke when it’s not convenient when you order on the first and the shipment is supposed to be here on the fourth then it changes to the fifth and then it changed to the sixth and it’s now the seventh and it still says delivery on the sixth quite confusing don’t you think and it’s still not here

### 5/5 — LOVE IT

*2021-12-16, version 3.1.1*

Why did I wait so long to try it?! I live in a remote area because of my husband’s job and it’s so difficult to find good deals or most things. Especially in bulk. I just received my first order yesterday and everything was packed beautifully! I stopped doing Walmart grocery orders because they would just throw everything in and by the time things got here all our stuff was smashed. Not with this order! Things were organized to fit and absolutely zero of the stuff had even a dent to them. I will be sticking to this company from here in out! Thank you so much!!

### 3/5 — I would say pass on this app.

*2021-12-11, version 3.1.1*

They do communicate well when you have a problem. But my order is a week late. It’s not about the supply chain either. Everything I ordered was already available. And I understand it’s December. But they could have easily told me the right WHEN. Instead they made the decision to mislead me about how quickly I would get my order, take my money, and then make me wait an extra week for the food. So I gave them 3 stars because they always answered my questions. But I won’t order from them again because they didn’t let me know up front how long I would have to wait.

### 4/5 — Delivery

*2021-08-11, version 3.0.9*

I just received my Aug 5, 2021,  box.  I am disappointed the driver threw the box down on my stone walk at my door.  Every can item  in my order was dented on the edges and will created a problem when opening.  This isn’t the first time that’s happened.  Why can’t the driver just ‘put’ it down and  Not drop it from his shoulder, or waist, or wherever he has it?  It’ll add one min or less to the delivery and would help ‘old’ people like my retired self.  I shop because of being able to get my items delivered. It’s becoming more and more difficult to justify the convenience when my items arrive like I went to a salvage place to buy them. I also have found myself not recommending your site because of this issue. I used to tell everyone about it, long before Covid19.
