Wantable Intimates Subscription Box Review – Jan 2014
The Wantable Intimates subscription box is the latest subscription from Wantable, and I think my favorite. I love the brands they use, the value in all my boxes has been great, and like all Wantable boxes, – I love the customization!
The Subscription Box: Wantable Intimates Subscription
The Cost: $36 a month (one time only purchase available for $40)
The Products: Intimates products based on your profile settings.
Ships to: US, Canada (additional $5) and Australia (additional $9)
Check out all of my Wantable reviews and the Women’s Subscription Box Directory!
When you first sign up for any Wantable subscription you take a style quiz and you can get very specific about the items you want and don’t want. (This is the list of my loves, likes and dislikes from my invoice).
When I first saw this list I was concerned – I have tons of dislikes (items I never want to get) and they aren’t on my list!
I contacted Wantable via the email form on their site since it looked there was a bug that removed all my dislikes from my account, and it turns out there was a glitch that impacted some customers.
Fortunately Wantable has some of the best customer service I’ve ever encountered, and they emailed me back within an hour, apologized, and offered to immediately send out replacement items for the items I shouldn’t have received. (I didn’t even have to send back the wrong items).
Ozone Knee High Socks – Value $20
I specified on my survey that I wanted knee high socks, so this item was correct! The print is a little loud, but it will work for me with just a little bit of the print sticking out from my boots!
On Gossamer Bralette – Value $38
This is my other item that was correct – I love bralettes for layering.
St Eve Seamless Boyshort – Value $9
Kix’ies Thigh Highs in Pinstripe – Value $18.95
(These are the two items they are sending me replacements for).
Verdict: For $36, I received over $85 worth of intimates products. I know I’ll love this box even more when I get my replacement items, but right now I’m very happy with the socks and bralette!
What did you get in your January Wantable Intimates box?
Written by Liz Cadman
Hey…
Looks like your box was ok..I have hosiery on my loves list because I have wanted to get a pair of kixxies or other thigh highs if anyone wants to trade theres let me know. …my last box was probably my best but wasn’t thrilled I got the pact racer back tank in tomatoe an has blue around edges hate the color so I won’t be wearing it an no one I know wants it…trade anyone?? Lol…I also got a light gray coobie bra…ok…an a l fluer t…bralette spelled that wrong..cute except I got one last month..I have gotten a lot of dupes in only 3 months…I also got a pair of Steve brand blue an green stripe boy shorts I can’t wear them since they are in an xl….an I am anywhere between a xs-med in underwear depending on brand but I can def not find anyone that wants or can wear the two items in this box. Customer service is good I told them about the xl
I have the same glitch with my dislikes not showing up. The likes listed aren’t correct, either. I really hope I have similarly great customer service.
I got those knee high socks too and also thought they were a little loud. However, once I put them on I absolutely fell in love with them! They are so soft and thick and cozy and the print somehow looks a lot better once you have them on. They are adorable! I love that the pattern doesn’t “stretch out” like a lot do once you put the socks on. I have at least 20 pairs of patterned knee high socks and these are now my favorite!
This was my first month getting the Wantable Intimates box and my second getting the makeup box. I’ve been very impressed so far. I found out about them through your blog, so thank you!
I have to say that Wantable Intimates is BY FAR my fave! I have yet to be disappointed, LOVE IT! My january box was the best yet, i was literally just tickled wen i opened it! I got Betsey Johnson cute & lacey hot pink/animal print/neon yellow panties, mukluk tights (which are XTREMELY soft, love that brand), and mukluk leggings (same softness) 3 pack wantable ankle socks, Nd knee high “mukluk” style slippers that my feet now have the biggest crush on! I DEF cannot wait for nxt month, i also get their makeup box nd am contemplating the jewellery since they continue to impress me so much!!!!
I am so jealous of your mukluk leggings! 🙂 Sounds like you got an amazing box!
This is a box that I never thought I would be interested in, but after reading this review and last month’s review, I am sold! The Wantable Intimates box has swiftly moved to the very top of my “Tryin’ Next” list! Maybe I will treat myself for my birthday….
For the first month ever, my box was terrible! I got two pairs of boyshort panties and two pairs of sleep shorts, one of which I had already received! I contacted Wantable and they are sending a replacement for the shorts that I already had but overall this box was a huge disappointment! 🙁
This was the first time I ever got a Wantable box. I always was nervous about paying $40 but I got a bonus at work and I decided to splurge 🙂 I absolutely loved it! I got a Betsy Johnson sleep shirt, two pair of black lace panties (different styles), and a pair of footless tights with a fleece lining. I’m hooked… can’t wait for my next one!
Awesome! I think their Intimates subscription is definitely worth the splurge! Congrats on your work bonus!! 🙂
I had a few pairs of the St. Eve boyshorts a couple years ago (I remember getting them at Kohl’s). They were comfy, but the front leg openings/hems always rolled up when I would sit down.
Mine rolled up too!!!!!!!!!
Forgot to mention what I got in my Jn box(es):
Cute knee socks
Kix’ies black dot thigh highs
Black lace panties with a cute little charm
Turquoise lace trim cami (fits so well I could wear without a bra and trust me that’s a real feat with these DDs!)
My second box included:
Betsy Johnson print chemise
Cute animal print boxers
Lounge pants (somewhere between a yoga and a Jammie pant)
Fuzzy pink socks (my favorite)
Completely worth every penny and I got exactly what I would have picked for myself were that an option!
Sounds great – I’m totally jealous of your double subscription! 🙂
omg! i am so jealous of your box! i love pj pants shorts and fuzzy socks!!!!!!! Wish i had found them in the fall =(
I shouldn’t complain at all, because I got a great box this month. I am still so jealous of your On Gossamer bralet, though! I got the same boyshorts as you did, but boyshorts on on my love list!
I know you didn’t want tights, but I got those Kixies last month and love them. I’ve never had thigh highs that held up so well and comfortably. They brought in the new year with me! I bought another pair in a more neutral pattern.
This month I got some shapewear, some panties, an adorable aqua cami with baby lace on top (my favorite item) and some pajama boxers. I’m loving this box!
Thanks for letting me know about the Kixies – I’ll have to try them now based on your review!
Glad you loved your box this month too! 🙂
I second the vote in favor of Kix’ies. I’ve worn both pair I’ve gotten and they were very comfortable and stayed put all day without making my thighs look or feel like meat in a sausage casing. I absolutely love this sub, more than any of the others I have (7) because it doesn’t disappoint, you can return if you get a dupe or wrong size (which hasn’t happened to me yet), and the items are very much customized to my likes/dislikes. I couldn’t ask for much more in a sub! The boy shorts are super comfy, by the way. I slept in them several times since getting them in my Dec box. I like my Jan box so much I got a second one. I just changed my profile to get targeted wants!
Great to know about their customer service – this is on my “wishlist!”
Also you may want to edit your review – looks like you have some of the Wantable Makeup info in there instead of intimates 😉
Whoops – thanks!
