Secret Garden Colouring Book & Pencil Crayons

This isn't an activity that I imagine many couples doing together, but I have dabbled in the adult colouring book thing. My 4-year-old saw this book and declared it was his. He's a colouring maniac.

Zipper Earphones

I can't use earphones like this because they don't stay in my ears. I can't say if they're good quality, but I doubt it.

Kolke Monopod

R and I laughed when we saw this. Our first selfie stick haha! We tried it out and we only got in a couple of photos before the thing fell apart. I'm not kidding, a piece just broke off and now you can't mount the phone on it. Piece of junk!

Pixel Heart Morph Mug & ECG Colour Changing Mug

The mugs change colour when you pour hot liquid into it. I like the pixel heart one.

McGregor Socks & Hotsox Socks

These socks are cute and seem like good quality, but we're not feeling the prints on them. I like that they're for his and her though.

Rolling Foot Massager & Nail Kit

Another pair of poor quality items. The middle row on the foot massager doesn't spin so you're not going to really get a good massage with it. It ends up sliding around on the floor. The nail kit includes a little mirror and as soon as the case was opened the mirror fell off the handle. The rest of the tools are very cheap quality and I won't use them. Can you tell yet what my final thoughts on this box will be?!

Upper Canada Soap-On-A-Rope & Iteritalia Soap

His and her soaps - the men's soap has a tonic musk scent and I couldn't find any info on the box of soap but they smell nice enough.

Australian Botanicals by D&H Travel Kit Body Care Set

This tin kit includes bath salts, body lotion, and body wash. I really like the coconut lime scent of the products.

Verdici Design Wine Stopper

This wine stopper is cute, but not something I'd use so I'll pass it on to a friend. It is a good inclusion for the box. A nice glass of wine with your partner is always a good thing!

D.L. & Co. La Poire D'Or Rare Botanic Candle

I couldn't get the bottom part of the candle out of the box and didn't want something else to break so I just left it in there. If you can't tell it's shaped like a pear. I like the classy black box the candle comes in and it has a very pleasing scent.

The Duo Box Subscription Box Review – July 2016

Ok, so overall I have negative feelings about this box, but at first I was really impressed and loved seeing all these different products. After taking a closer look at everything it's clear that most of this stuff is poor quality and I couldn't believe a few things instantly broke. I mean, how embarrassing would it be for, let's say a new couple to unbox this and they try some of this stuff out and things start falling apart?! It doesn't make for a very romantic evening, does it?! R and I had a good laugh at first, but we were disappointed with the overall box. The box had potential to be great, but the quality is not acceptable for a box that's supposed to bring couples together.
