“Bought the retro mini tv, has trouble turning on, and had taken awhile to put together. After I figured out it wasn’t functioning correctly, firebox had sent out a brand new one. Good service who actually cares for their customers 😃👍🏼.”

“Firebox is quirky and I love to go to them for fun gifts for friends. When I had an issue with one of their products their customer service team reached out to be and took the time to listen, which was really appreciated. It can be expensive but you pay for creativity.”

“This is the first website I hop onto when there is a Birthday//Christmas is around the corner and it never disappoints! Never fails to provide inspiration and spread joy. Though admittedly, some of the novelty gifts (chocolate anuses or a little dancing jesus for example) are a little pricier than I'd like, it's always 100% worth it for the smile on people's faces when they open them. I recently bought my sister a disco bath light for her birthday because she claimed that baths are "boring and take too long". Now she's never out of the bath!! Packages always arrive quickly and nothing has ever arrived damaged, have never had any issues with this site or the items. I have recommended this site to a number of my close friends and family and will continue shopping on it for the years to come.”

“I ordered 3 of the Isolation Mystery boxes for family and friends, they were opened together via video links, but all three contained exactly the same things, and most of the contents were quickly discarded as being rubbish. I’ve bought Firebox mystery boxes in the past and they were fun, but I’m afraid these missed the mark badly and it was pretty poor that all three boxes contained exactly the same items.”

Hey David, Thank you very much for taking the time to review us. We are very sorry that your latest order from us was disappointing. As a loyal customer over the years, we are very concerned to read that we've let you down with this last purchase. Your Firebox experience and, the feedback you share with us on products and services we provide is very important to us. We have reached out to you directly through here (privately) and via e-mail to see if there is anything we can do to make it up to you as well as your family and friends. Although our Isolation Mystery Boxes do contain the same items, this is because we have a variety of classic Mystery Box types i.e Gadget, Home, Foodie, Unusual. Our range does expand throughout the year to feature Disney, Star Wars, Valentines, Black Friday and Christmas-themed Mystery Boxes the same way we now have Isolation Mystery Boxes. When we do have multiple versions of a Mystery Box (such as Secret Santa) these will be differentiated by types and a multiple choice options on the product page - a little bit like our current Party Game Lucky Dip 1, 2 and 3. We really look forward to discussing this with you and to decide how we can rectify this for yourself and your loved ones. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Kindest regards, Firebox

“I purchase the spicy gummy bears for my husband as a gift. I don't like spice so I haven't tried them but my husband really likes them. He said they are not the most firey thing he's tried but they definitely have strong kick to them which of course gets stronger the more you eat. He's quickly going through the bag so I will probably have to get some more soon! Thank you firebox, quick delivery too 🙂”

“I purchased a "Foodie box", I didn't expect too much as was just a bit of fun, the items I got were okay, mostly reduced in the site though so actually the claim that they would have cost over £45 individually at the time I bought them was incorrect as it was less, sadly as well £7.99 of the "Foodie" box was a tub of fried chicken shaped erasers... I don't need erasers, they are not edible, I wouldn't expect to see them in an edible box? So at time of purchase the edible items I received were worth £27.96 which is about what I paid for the box plus delivery. So no saving and a bit pointless. Nicely presented, reasonably quick delivery under the circumstances, everything is in good condition, but fairly disappointing overall and I now have a tub of novelty erasers that will be given away somehow.”

Hey there Donna, Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are very sorry to hear that your latest Firebox experience was not satisfactory. Your Firebox experience as well as your feedback about it, is very valuable to us and we do not want it to be a negative one. Due to the mystery element of the Mystery Boxes, there is a risk that the items will not be to personal taste. As per the details and specifications of the product, it's a food-themed mystery box so it doesn't necessarily mean that all items are edible. We'd love to look into this further and see if there is any way we can help, so we have e-mailed you directly requesting further information about your order. We hope to hear from you soon and helping in any way we can. Regards, Firebox

“The one star is for the speed of delivery which was excellent. The product itself was so disappointing I was embarrassed to be giving it is as a present, even my 12 year old son commented on how we'd obviously been given the stuff that couldn't sell. It was supposed to be something that would cheer my husband up having his birthday in self isolation but I think he thought I'd lost the plot effectively giving him cheap plastic and puzzle books which I could have got for a third of the price at WHSmith. I feel like I've been robbed and I will have to spend more money now to make up for this bad gift. Sadly I won't be buying from this company again and certainly will be advising anyone else to stay well clear of the mystery boxes.”

“I think the products are presented in a misleading way. I bought three different products at the same time and none of them were true to the website description. I see the reviews facility for products on the website has been disabled and I assume this is why. Basically, stuff looks good on the website and is a reasonable price but when it arrives it is, in my experience, either much smaller than it was presented as, badly made or just doesn't work at all. A real shame because the products look unique. I made the mistake of buying products as gifts and was left embarrassed when the recipients opened them and we all realised how shoddy they were. EDIT: Firebox contacted me following this review and asked for specific feedback, which I gave. On the basis of my feedback they refunded me for three of the products I had bought. They also gave me a £10 credit to use within a year. Their customer service was very efficient and on that basis I have changed my rating from "poor" to "acceptable".”

We reached out directly via e-mail to find out more about the issues you've encountered with your order. Thank you so much for your thorough response to all the problems you had with the products.

“I got the Boba Tea night light and I love it so much. It arrived on time, and Firebox sent texts to update me on delivery times, which was very helpful. The product is so cute, he's small but lights up very well. There's also little black plastic balls rattling around inside which is cute.”

“Quick delivery, nicely packaged. Only thing was the spreadable gin did not have even a hint of gin, it tasted completely or marmalade, nice marmalade but no gin and the idea of this gift was the gin being infused.”

“I recently contacted Firebox customer service department to inquire about the tracking on my package. Due to all of the confusion with COVID-19, my package was sent via international air mail instead of DHL. To my surprise, due to the longer length of time it will take to receive my package, Firebox refunded my shipping costs! Way to go above and beyond Firebox! I will definitely be telling everyone of your excellent customer service and awesome products! Thank you again.”

“Bought for my sister for her birthday ... then slightly regretted as I'd already got her some spreadable pink gin, and I could have kept this back for her next birthday, or Christmas. But she loves the stuff so much, I'm sure she'll be happy with a pot of each on both occasions. Thank you, Firebox.”

“My sister loves gin but has no-one to drink it with any more and has a cupboard full of bottles of gin ... Imagine my delight when I discovered this as an alternative. I bought her a pot of this and a pot of spreadable pink gin; I think a boxful would have been better until her birthday comes around again. The parcel arrived before I had time to warn her, but I had it addressed to me so she didn't open it. Well packed with other items ordered.”
