Limited Edition Experience LuxePineapple Box Review + Coupon – July 2017

I just don’t understand how that bracelet can even be taken seriously, especially with that listed value. It definitely looks and feels cheap. Dollar store quality. It wouldn’t look so bad (in my opinion) if whatever shape (mine was like a giraffe or something) was just a clear cut shape and did not have those little half bead looking attachments on each side. It REALLY brings down the aesthetic and makes it look of poor quality.

I bought this box and could not have been more disappointed in the items as well as the horrendous customer service I received when I reached out to them regarding my dissatisfaction.

The spoiler clearly showed the outside of the water bottle which was stainless and bamboo. Upon receiving it I was astonished and hugely disappointed to see that the bottle is not stainless inside. Rather it is lined with cheap plastic that is off-gassing terribly. There is no way I would ever drink from such a bottle, or ever even want it in my home given the chemicals coming from it. I felt sick and had to toss the entire thing outside.

I wrote to the company saying I was sorely disappointed in the bottle, felt mislead that the inner was plastic given that the outside was stainless, and also wondered in this day and age, how their company could in good faith be sending out drinking bottles that are not BPA-free. I also noted other problems with the box, e.g. the the bracelet, which is entirely plastic and very cheap looking (mine was much less attractive than the one shown in this review)

The response I got was ridiculous:

“Hi Beth,

Thank you so much for taking the time to express your concerns. The water bottle is 100% recyclable, non-toxic and the liner isn’t plastic. It is BPA free….

… I do hope I have addressed your concerns, especially with safety.

Really – Not plastic?? Then what on earth is it? And what’s with that signature?!

oh, goddamned those bamboo bottles! i have one from the bamboo bottle company, it is glass inside. i can’t use the bamboo outside part anymore because it molded!!! i am assuming water dripped in between the glass and bamboo while drinking. i always seperated it during washing. just mentioning that issue in case your bottle is built the same way. beware the mold! 🙁

I was disappointed with the number of items, although I did buy it with a small discount code so I only paid $20. My oldest daughter LOVES the thermos, and it saves me from having to buy her a new one as school starts back, and my younger daughter loves the plant and named hers Shelly! The bracelet is cute and nice quality, worth about $15-20, but I do agree with people who say it seems like something is missing from this box. Love their customer service and this box has introduced me to some unique items in the past so I’ll not be too hard on them!

That air plant is cute but you can buy tilliandsia for about $2-3 each and a sea urchin for about a buck so $12… wow, what a rip off.

In fact… https://www.air-plants.com/collections/air-plant-displays/products/pink-sea-urchin-air-plant-kit you can get three for $12.

the water bottle is at TJ max for $9.99. Just sayin. 🙂

Only 3 items….very disappointing.

This box was a dud. I’m gifting all of it. I will not subscribe to them any time soon.

I liked this box. It only cost me $17 so its a good deal. I love my air plant but it is only an inch big. I named him tiny Tim. I got a purple urchin shell and I love the bamboo water bottle!

My son named his new caterpillar Bob. I will keep him away from your Bob.

Bob is the cutest

I love that little Bob !!!!!

I purchased this box early and got it for 19.99 using a discount code so the risk wasn’t that bad. This was my first purchase from this place and was disappointed. I dislike getting water bottles or thermos’s as those just seem like fillers to me and seem to be in a lot of boxes lately and it seems like an attempt to try and push up the value. The thermos did seem of decent quality but I have so many of these types of items it will just get stored or possibly donated. I got a blue bracelet and it was tight but I thought I liked it until after wearing it to work one day and then took it off when I got home and I had blue dots on my wrist from the beads so that is something that will be demoted to a kids play item. I did soak my plant and it was cute but on my card it said to soak it and then put it in the urchin and then it said follow the directions below for on going care but there was nothing more so I am not sure if the soaking was just a one time thing and that is it or if there was supposed to more direction on what to do periodically to maintain the life of the plant that they forgot to include. Either way in my window it sits and so far no change. When I purchased the box I remember reading something about there would be no make up in the box so i didn’t expect make up but based on it not being advertised as the mystery box for the home division I did think there might be a beauty tool or at least things from multiple categories. Even though I was disappointed in the box it was only a 20.00 risk so not much lost. I may not have gotten much to enjoy but things I can possibly gift. However, based on these items I don’t think I would subscribe to either of their boxes.

Nice. I like it. Have some air plants that hang from a shell similar to this and they are doing great.

The water bottle to me seemed unsafe to use. Mine had a strong chemical smell. Going to use as a vase. The bracelet was cute but small. It seemed like the box was missing something. Experience of at random items for me. Thank you for the review!

This is the first box from LP that I’ve not been happy with. I only liked the air plant/urchin.
