Although it was a smidge too expensive to continuously subscribe, it was a fun exciting experience and got a bad a$$ speaker. Was easy to cancel subscription also

Predictable and not worth the value

I like the idea but when we receive the standard mini bluetooth speaker as the 1st purchase then sorry but you won't be keeping my business. Too predictable, I expected a mini speaker and surprise surprise, that is what I received. The value is supposed to be £40 but the speaker sent costs £25 when I google it.

Trial Box

I ordered a trial box and was for the large part happy with what I got. However, i did not receive any information about when my package was going to come or anything which did not help.

The Items I recieved don't even reach 60£ in your 100+£ box, I did research on items on the box. 40£ wallet, 8£ charger and 10£ mobile holder. This from direct sellers and amazon.

Do not and I mean DO NOT even get the trial box, these guys are scammy, they dont give you account to even cancel the subscription, you just get charged as a direct debit each month. I was charged £80 for some gimmicky camera and a light bulb. I contacted support, no one gets back. Do not waste your money people.

"Box includes two gadgets designed to upgrade his everyday life, worth £94.98" - my box tallied up to be just over 10 pounds worth. And one of them was broken. Very disappointed and won't be doing this again

Not worth it...

The $79 gadget turned out to be a bluetooth speaker worth less than $20. It's not a bad little speaker - when I can get it to connect! - but just not worth it. I could have bought a similar speaker for less on Amazon, so the Gadget Discovery Club just doesn't seem worth it.

Hi David, thank you for your review. It sounds like you received our trial box, so not our full $99 quarterly box. The trial box includes one gadget so you can get a taste of our full subscription - I'm sorry if that wasn't clear!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Enjoyed my £9.99 trial

Enjoyed my £9.99 trial. I got a mini speaker that packs a punch, we just used it on our camping trip and was perfect. Overall good value for money.
