I appreciate the things I try out but I won a prize package and it was never sent. I emailed them multiple times and no response. The customer service is horrible.

Home tester club is a website that sends you products to try in exchange for a review. I've had nothing but a great experience with them since I started a few months ago. All you have to do is apply for products, and they mail you what you qualify for. I love it!!

I have been a member for a year and a half now. I have tested a few products. I love the the site is clear and easy to use. I often use the site to see reviews on products I am considering buying and I have also made a couple of recommendations of things I would like to see reviewed. I love giving views on the products I have tested. I have found this company to be a good honest company. Surely all those giving negative reviews about Home Tester, understand the concept enough to know that we cannot all be chosen for all the product tests?

Ignore the bad reviews, this company is fair and although I don’t get picked for all, they filter products that are suitable for you and for the products needs.
I’ve tried items such as shampoo, conditioner, band aids, wrist supports, moisturisers, mug shot food and many more. You are able to leave good honest reviews and are encouraged to be open and not pressured into leaving all positives. By far the best product testing company in the UK. Thank you

Company called Demmoun.
Payed over $50 AUD over a month ago.
Track654 claimed to have delivered my parcel 3 days ago.
Didn’t happen!!!
Seller (Demmoun) would not furnish the name of the courier for me to follow up.
Contacted Demmoun numerous times; they’ve gone silent.
Do not trust them.

They can improve, sure who can’t they take everyone but your Survey form depends on what you receive to test. I received a box of Band-Aids, a deodorant, and a kids mirror that was plastic which the kids liked very much, because it was in the shape of a cat! I been a member over five years and that’s the products I have gotten, no electronics,no iron nothing expensive. But still I look forward to trying out a few bandaids, nice to have when you need them, (they’re cheaper than sticker books!)
They had Disney characters on them!

I’ve been a member for only two months and in the post the other day was sent an iron worth £400 to test, review and then I can keep it. Also tested kitchen role and a games console within my first month. Very good so far
Avoid this website. I was selected to test some cookware out 2 hours later I get an email asking me to answer a few questions on cookware I fill it in and I’m then asked to pay £3 delivery charges. Nothing arrived but a few days later they take a further £50 out of my account saying I’d signed up to a subscription to reduced price electrical goods in Cyprus. How did they get my info and know I’d registered with home tester club for cookware. No one is willing to help
Think I've been a member for more than a year now and I still can't confirm it's legit since I haven't been chosen to test and review a product. If ever I was selected, don't know if I'll be able to receive the item.There'd be instances when it's a problem to access the site.

I was selected to test product more then 3 weeks ago but unfortunately nothing arrived yet , I tried to contact you with email but you responded once saying: it’s takes up to 3 weeks , but till now nothing arrived
I was so amazed and happy to get home and have the Tefal Titanium Excellence stewpot with lid to test and have decided to make a chicken stew with dumplings.
Genuine company that sends you stuff to test and keep for free.
I have great experience
I joined 3 years ago and It took me few months to land my first product to review.After that I am getting one product every second month .Most of the products I got were kids toys and home related like detergent,mouth wash etc.I found some great brands which I would not have discovered if not offered by HTC.People who complain needs to have some active social media presence as a reviewer.No one wants to giveaway a product for free if they do not get a feedback to improve or it does not get advertised.
Got Lego friends today my daughter love this thank you so much
Never been picked even when I fall directly into the key demographic of the product. Why should I keep filling out these surveys for selection when I get no word back at all?
Been registered for over a year, left genuine reviews for items I have bought and used, but still to this date not been selected to review any products from this site, so I have unregistered
What you will notice is all the electrical appliances are given to people who have white European names, I have been selected once to review a toothpaste and have been a member for 2 years and completed over 100 reviews with various uploads of items I have purchased myself to boost my chance of obtaining products to review but white European reviewers with 10 or below reviews or some with no reviews get free electrical products to test.
Okay so somebody here mentioned that the reviews on HTC were all phony 5 star reviews because people think that it will get them more products… & that the same names popped up on a lot of other reviews… well yes & no to all of the above. (THIS WILL BE LENGTHY BUT WORTH IT). Some people do believe that they will get more products & they are usually the same profiles leaving reviews. It is a club, after all. Home Tester CLUB. (: Not all reviews are phony. Just the ones where people really want their free items HAHA (who doesn’t).
Most of the time they send out good stuff, But you can always give a bad review if you didn’t like the product. It’s not against their policies LOL I just think some of these people just really enjoy receiving FREE items that they’ll do anything to get more. Which is not a thing! Good or bad reviews don’t affect what gets sent to you or how often.
To qualify, well that depends on how you answer. Each survey is unique to a certain thing. If you think something applies to you, answer what you think is best for yourself. But also don’t be greedy. Don’t lie just to get free stuff. Don’t make genuine testers look bad.
As far as getting chosen, I guess it’s like the lottery when you first apply??? But you win more often as the years go by??? Well maybe that’s not a good comparison but I think you get the point LOL you’ll get chosen if you meet qualifications based on your response. TO BE HONEST THOUGH, one thing that EXTREMELY bothered me when I first signed up, was that it took about 2 whole years to get the ball rolling! *fists shaking in rage at HTC*.
As far as new recruits I’m not sure how all that works. Because it was slow with the products at first. I’ll break down when I received my stuff from when I first joined. (Free to join btw)
I applied around March of 2018, received my first item in May 2018, 4 ítems, May,Oct,Nov,Dec. In 2019, 3 items. Feb,Aug,Sept. In 2020, 8 items, Apr,Jun,Jun,Sept,Oct,Oct,Oct, Dec. In 2021, 10 items, Apr,Apr,Aug,Sept,Oct,Oct,Nov,Nov,Dec, Dec. Now this year, 2022, 12 items. WHICH THIS YEARS ITEMS WERE ALL LOVED AND ENJOYED THANKS HTC. Feb,Feb(fave item, still using! $80 tooth brush),Mar,Mar,Mar,May,Jun,Jun,Aug(my kids absolutely went crazy for this one),Aug,Aug, Aug.
It’s legit. This place is legit 100% REAL FREE FULL SIZED ITEMS. Keep up with your emails, constantly check the website! You’re going to be addicted LOL I am grateful for the plenty of things I have received! Some were terrible, and some were absolutely adored. You get household items, toys for kids if you have kids, baby stuff, FURNITURE!!! BEDS CRIBS TVS BLENDERS DISH SETS CUTLERY SETS REFRIGERATORS!!!! Give it a chance. It might take a while to start receiving a bunch of stuff but it’s so worth the wait. I’m glad I didn’t give up! No I’m not paid or anything (wish I was) but I guess the free items are what pays me to scream to the world THIS IS THE ONLY WEBSITE THAT IS NOT A SCAM AND EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW!!!!!!! Love you HTC! I BELIEVE IN YOU LOL
