Her Fitness Box - February 2014 review (launch box)

This is the launch box for Her Fitness Box, made by the same ladies that do Her Fashion Box. The concept is a great one - a monthly box filled with health and fitness items 2 x fitness items and 4 x health and lifestyle deluxe samples. Each month costs $39.95 but is worth over $110. 

I was expecting a ripper box going on the fashion box doing so well and I thought it would be extra special considering it is the launch box. Unfortunately this was a massive let down. Firstly, it was late. I got this on Friday, being the last day of February. Not a good start! Secondly, the items received did not even add up to $39.95! I have since read on another blog that they are including the vouchers in this price. Umm pardon? Since when do vouchers get included in the total price? And since when is a notebook a fitness item? Or the tote a fitness item? More details on the products and my thoughts are below.



This all comes in the same large box as the fashion box, but with a blue label stuck on top. The items I received are:

  • Her Fitness Box tote bag
  • Skipping rope RRP $17.95
  • Green is Good smoothie satchet
  • Emma and Toms Life Bar
  • Norbu Natural Sweetner (4 satchets)
  • Coconut Essence drink can
  • Cantik Swimwear note book
  • Anytime Fitness voucher (7 day free start)
  • Brasilfit $30 voucher (only valid on purchases over $129)
  • Fitness card (how to: skipping, squats and lunges)
  • Recipe card (Cacao balls, Chipotle, Green smoothie)
I'm just so disappointed in this. Big let down! This could have been such a success, but just isn't. To start with I only received 1 fitness accessory. One of the health & lifestyle samples is 4 satchets, how is that deluxe? The notebook and the smoothie have both been featured in previous Her Fashion Boxes, and they've included vouchers towards the total. I don't know about you but i'm not paying upwards of $100 for leggings, or even spend $130 only to get $30 off. I was also missing a card of somesort describing what was in the box, this is a big miss to not include something like this.

The two things I did love was the fitness and recipe cards, these are a great idea and I hope these continue.

I have already paid for March's box so here is hoping that it is much better. If not, then I will definately unsubscribe. What a pity, as this box had so much potential.

What do you think of this as a launch box? Would you pay $39.95 for this?
