has such cute cases that don't sacrifice the planet along with it. they have a bunch of different options that are all compostablea and responsibly made. this brand warms my heart <3

Pela has grown a lot since I bought by first iphone case from them years ago. Since then I have returned to purchase various compostable cases. Their innovative design and commitment to eco-conscious business is nice. I always try to support B Corps and 1% for the Planet business members because the criteria is tough and I can trust they aren't totally greenwashed. Their recycling program is great too.

I bought a phone case. My case did fall apart, but I think that's a good thing. I love Pela's brand and mission, and will continue to buy their products and recommend it to friends. I took off one star because it fell apart a little too quickly. I would like the formula to be adjusted so that it doesn't come apart so quickly.

Wish the price was a little bit reduced and the phone case breaks down after a while, it happens with all phone cases so nothing crazy. 

huge fan of brands being eco-friendly! I’ve bought cases and the radiation reducer from Pela. Love this brand and share it with all my friends!!

My partner and I have purchased several phone cases over the years. We chose this company purely because the cases are biodegradeable, it wasn't an aesthetic choice. Each case lasted between 1-2 years and the phones were well protected.

I do think the price point is quite high, especially compared to other cases on the market and doesn't seem justified considering the more limited design options and the relatively quick deterioration of the product. 

I am on the lookout for other compostable options, but do not regret my previous purchases from Pela.  

Price isn't so cheap and the product doesn't always feel worth it-- it can feel a little flimsy and not super premium. Think that's just the nature of essentially buying a rubber sock for your phone.

Ultimately, I stopped using Pela cases when other phone case brands caught up with them on the product development side. Now that I can find a phone case that's way more my taste aesthetically from Casetify or somewhere similar and is officially made with recycled plastic or biodegradable materials, there's no reason for me to buy a biodegradable phone case that I don't love the look of.

Still a lot of respect for what these folks did-- and they did it first! If ever the design matches up with my taste, I'll be a customer again.

I've been using these cases for a long time and was such a big fan of what they stood for. I hate the idea of single use plastic going to landfill for something as vain, ephemeral, and, frankly, kind of useless, as a phone case.

I never bought these for the aesthetic and usually tried to go with the most minimalist option available to me. The wheatgrass looking texture isn't for me, nor is the etching. I loved the clear phone cases with the bumper on the exterior, which were looking a lot more like normal phone cases. Basically, I love products that allow me to be sustainable without the eco-warrior aesthetic.


If you are not concerned about eco-friendly causes, Pela cases can be a hard sell. While their mission is admirable (compostable phone cases) the price is difficult to justify to an ordinary consumer. I own three Pela cases, they are durable and feel nice to the touch.  

 I would reccommend the cases, with the caveat of waiting until their next 2 for 1 sale.
⭐ Cute solid colors
⭐Great company mission
⭐Pricey but great sales and deals

Love a brand that supports the planet. Great sturdy cases that have been protecting my phone against gravity since day one!
