AMAZING

When I first ordered the curiosity box, I had high hopes and let me tell you I was not disappointed. The items inside are made of high-quality materials and have actual thought and dedication put into them. The clothing that come in the box always have a unique twist or pun on them with suits me very well (Uranus is a Black Hole). Probs the only issue I have maybe every second box is that there is sometimes a genre of items to say that I am not particularly interested in, but other than that I Highly recommend the Curiosity Box for any of the VSAUCE fans or just science nerds out there.

Ridiculous in the best way possible

One of the coolest purchases I have ever made. The items are incredibly entertaining, and of really high quality. I was worried about the cost per box initially but feel like it is beyond worth it when you see what all you get every quarter. It comes with a little booklet explaining all the science behind each item. My family and friends are beyond annoyed at me for talking about everything so much. Just got the notification that the next box is shipping soon and I'm thrilled. If you're really interested in strange and bizarre but intriguing items, you gotta buy the box.

Delightful.

I’ve been subscribed to the Curiosity Box for three boxes now, and it’s been a delight! The assortment of interesting and whimsical items has been a joy to explore, enriching my wardrobe, library, and toy shelf.

The included toys are unique and thoughtful, making them perfect gifts for kids. They always come with a fascinating story, adding a personal touch that stands out. Highly recommended for anyone who loves a blend of fun and curiosity!

If you know v sauce the curiosity box…

If you know v sauce the curiosity box membership will please you. I first ordered it for myself and after the first box I started sending most items to my nieces and nephews when age appropriate. The spark of scientific curiosity and inspiration to learn and challenge the kids was more than enough to continue my shipments. The value is worth it and the thoughtfulness is great. Highly recommend!

This was my first box

This was my first box. My one criticism (of myself) is that I missed out on the wonderfulnesss that were past boxes, now gone.

Excellent company and products. The adult version of the little science packets I received 40:years ago. :)

Highly recommend for all ages

My son has a birthday in December so it usually gets lost in the celebration of Christmas, shared with everyone else. We bought a quarterly subscription and it was absolutely brilliant. Many happy hours of engagement and quality items in each box. The anticipation alone has been sensational for him. Getting a birthday gift in June is a nice treat for him, and each box has engaged the whole family.

Neat items that almost no one else has

Neat items that almost no one else has. Everyone always asks... Where did you get that? Plus I like the excitement of wondering what will come in the next box.

The box itself is amazing

The box itself is amazing, but I have had a few quality issues on certain parts. I believe it happened in shipping.

Definitly a "subscription for thinkers."

I love the items they ship, the "subscription for thinkers" description is definitly accurate. It is all very high quality stuff, and there is no fake or artificial stuff, no imitation nonsense, i love that. My one and only complaint in that all the shirts they send are short sleeved, I'd prefer long sleeve.

The Curiosity Box is very fun

The Curiosity Box is very fun. The gimmicks, especially puzzles, are fun to solve or to play with. Combined with great books it makes the perfect Box for young and old.

I love the Curiosity Box

I love the Curiosity Box. I've always loved Vsauce and it took me a while to subscribe because I thought it was a bit expensive. Once the first box arrived I knew it was worth every penny. Everytime a new box comes I feel like a child on Christmas day. I totally recommend to all nerds like me :)

Great Science Toy Subscription

I get 4-5 science toys in a box once per quarter. As a high school teacher, I use them as fun classroom gimmicks. Several of my students are familiar with V-Sauce as an internet personality and love his work. They are excited about the new subscription box each time.
