Breo Box Subscription Review + Coupon – Winter 2017

Interesting that some people are satisfied (happy even) paying $130+ for overpriced knickknacks. Pretty clear that the nays have it. Breo Box needs to step up their game to keep those who want quality items purchasing their sub. I guess if you have low expectations and money to burn, it would be easy to get excited about this one. The puzzle is poor quality as well- the pieces don’t stay together. I guess some don’t care about silly things like that. Lots of other subs to spend this chunk of change on. I could get a whole lot of cool Fabfitfun add-ons that would be better quality. Except the jewelry, of course.

I’m new member of Breo Subscription box- I subscribed when I saw this review, I hope that my box will be the same as the one presented here.

One other thing! Why are the gloves branded? They would be much nicer without the awful text on them. They feel like the kind of swag companies give out for free at career fairs in order to promote themselves cheaply.

It’s not the items are necessarily bad, they’re just definitely not worth the price of the box. The toothbrush holder and mirror should not come in gimicky colors, and the bottle opener is silly. I thought from the name and image that it would be an automatic wine opener, but it’s just a massive bottle opener. Who needs this?
I bought this as a gift and now I’m too embarrassed to give it, and I am also out $139 and need to find a higher quality gift last minute.

Unfortunately Aleks, the shocking blue toothbrush holder and mirror that I received are not in a color that would match ANYONE’s decor. You’re right that the photo doesn’t so them justice- they are even more obnoxious in person. They would NOT adhere at all to my shower wall (you might not be aware that not all shower walls are glossy plastic- so much for being hi-tech- it doesn’t function like you claim.

If I had received a plain white one (or at least a neutral color) like MSA received (which I doubt is a coincidence), at least I could consider gifting (read dumping) it. I would never put that icky blue color up in my bathroom, or be able to give it as a gift other than as a gag gift. They look like something one could find in the dollar store- the icky blue or pink leftovers that no one wanted to buy.

I would never choose to buy the puzzle if I saw it in a store- it’s just not that interesting.

Was there any thought process in choosing the filler items? Or just clearanced out (FREE?) because no one else wanted them? I cannot believe anyone would actually CHOOSE to put the icky blue mirror and toothbrush holder or puzzle in an upscale sub box.

As a new subscriber, I will seriously consider cancelling before the next box is sent. Whoever is doing your curating needs to be replaced ASAP.

Really disappointed in this box. I bought this as a gift for my husband, but the tacky “tooletries” and puzzle are just embarrassing. Straight to goodwill. And, no real “curation” here–just a random pile of stuff.
I thought I had found a cool box, but will probably cancel the subscription–I could buy dollar store junk myself if that is what I wanted.
Breobox–I hope you are reading the comments.

Anyone familiar with ease of order cancelling? Bought this for my fiance for Christmas before spoilers and seeing as we both have about 8 fitbits and 2 Arias this is about the worst possible present I could get him. Cancelled through the site and sent an email but curious how good their customer support is as I haven’t interacted with them before.

I was excited about the opener at first because my first thought was that it was an electric wine bottle or champagne opener, which is something I’ve always wanted. And the idea of that seemed fitting with the holiday season considering all the wine and bubbly that will be flowing. Kind of bummed to realize it’s a bottle opener. I carry one on my keychain that works fine. And since I already have a Fitbit Alta, I don’t have much use for the hero item. That’s not Breo’s fault of course. This is a solid box. But I bought it during the BTBF deal before the spoilers came out because I didn’t want to miss out on a good deal. But I kind of just learned the hard way that even a good deal can feel like a bad one if the items don’t really click with you. I’ll practice more restraint from now on.

I would love to receive this box. I am the only person in US that does not have a Fitbit. I love puzzles but agree it is not holiday themed. Of all the sub reviews I have looked at on MSA only one do I remember having a holiday theme. I was a little surprised. Wish there were more. Anyway, if anyone who does not like their box wants to give me theirs I will not object. I personally will use everything.

I like the mix of items in the box! The watch I can easily gift, the toothbrush holder is a huge win for me because I travel so much (I might try to swap for another), I don’t have a scale in my house (I use the one at the gym),the gloves will be put to good use by my teenage daughter (they look like nice quality) and I will probably gift the bottle opener to my son. The puzzle is really the only item I am confused about, but I will gift it to my nephew (if I get my box before the 18th).

Quite disappointed with the box. Scale is nice, but I already own fitbit one, so this will either go for a swap or to my daughter. Watch is cute, but yet again I have fitbit blaze and all my friends and family are also either garmin or fitbit users, so have no real use for it. I could not cancel this box as I got annual subscription as a present from my BFF in summer for my BD and was hoping that other items would be at least somewhat festive given it is Holiday Season, but nothing screams holidays and coziness to me. Pretty bummed with the whole box. I would probably only keep gloves and the rest will be either up for swap or gifted…

I should have waited for the spoilers. Cancelling ASAP. I would use everything but I was hoping for a more fitness related box based on the first 2 spoilers.

Im not dissapointed just feeling underwhelmed.

@lizcadman, is the watch strap black or blue? The face bronze? Trying to see as I don’t see this one online. Would you be willing take a picture of the watch on?
Thank you!

I really love this box and I already own a Withings (now Nokia) scale and smartwatch (that really is a watch). The curation on this this box is wonderful, really thoughtful coordination and I look forward to the next one already. FYI, this is my 1st box.

This box doesn’t wow me (only because I don’t need another smart watch) but I think my husband will like everything else in the box. I plan on gifting or swapping the smart watch and wrapping the rest up for Christmas. Deciding if I want to continue with my subscription since I get Robb Vices so hopefully the next spoiler is a good one to keep me. Overall, I think it was still a great box!

Maybe I’m in the minority but I really like this box. I already have a Weight Gurus blue-tooth scale that I love so I might give this one to my son, but I might keep it anyway – not sure. Anything included in the box that I don’t think I’ll personally use I know people who will love them as gifts. Breo Box has not disappointed me yet.

I also subscribed with the Black friday deal and I find this box extremely disappointing. The value on the scale is inflated and except for the watch, the other items are interesting, but something that I might find the dollar store, particularly the mirror and the puzzle. I doubt I will stay subscribed with boxes like this. I think I will stick with Robb Vices despite all their issues.

Awesome! I’ll use everything.

I cancelled after the second spoiler, hoping the next box is more useful or fun for me.

I subscribed a few days ago based on the scale/watch spoilers and was hoping for more cool stuff. The Corkcicle is cool and I will happily gift to my son. Gloves are good too. The toothbrush holder and mirror are disappointing and unnecessary; the puzzle is a waste. I would rather have had one really nice item instead of the three cheapo ones. I’ll have to seriously reconsider whether I want to continue if this happens. I don’t want a bunch of inexpensive junky knickknacks.

Guess they can never match the summer box (which I missed… 😢)
Subbed when it had the btbf promo, now really regretted it.
Wear actual watch and fitbit daily, so no use for misfit.
Scale on sale for half off, which decrease the total greatly.
And who the hxxl pays $20 for a doodad that it’s only purpose is to open a beer bottle?!
Now I have to think what I can do with these items.
Sorry for being negative here, just my personal opinion. Been burned a lot by subs and merchants a lot recently…
Hope ppl who likes it really enjoys its content.

What an interesting and unexpected variety of items!! Well done, Breo!

Some of this stuff looks too much like filler items to me: the toothbrush holder, mirror and puzzle. Kinda corny and gimmicky IMO.
