    I could browse the store all day. Haven't bought any clothing, but the storage and organization tools are lovely.

    I'm the type of person that doesn't love exercise, but having the bike right in our apartment – plus a great variety of instructors and music – has finally converted me. We got a refurbished bike for $999 – definitely worth the money when splitting between the two of us. Having access to additional classes (especially while traveling) is a nice bonus.

    I joined the Joggy community on TYB as a founding member because I'm interested in CBD-based products and am always looking for alternative forms of energy. (I don't drink coffee.) I receive discounts on products (and free samples/tests of new ones), but I can honestly say I'd be buying these at full price. (I've only had the the Runner's High and the energy drink). These feel like a cheat code for my daily life.

    Effectiveness: 5/5 - Coffee makes me jittery, but Joggy makes me groovy – I actually find myself putting on fun, upbeat music to match my energy after having half of an energy drink. Similar effect with Runner's High. I wouldn't say I'm necessarily more focused, but I'm not high or overstimulated either. Joggy just seems to elevate my mood and energy a few levels. Branding & packaging: 5/5 - Sustainable and thoughtful packaging, and I appreciate all the ingredient information Taste: 3/5 - For the Runner's High drops, you're going to want to put it in another drink. I'm fine putting it in water, but I wouldn't recommend taking the drops their own. (The gummies might taste better, but I love the precision of the tincture droppers.) I like the taste of the energy drink, but I can see how it might not be for everyone.

    I like the brand and the product use case. I just didn't notice much, even after trying the macro dose product. However, I didn't take them regularly – it's possible you need to do a regular schedule (Mojo recommends 5 days on, 2 days off). I'd be open to trying again in the future.

    Feedback

    I'd wait for a promotion to get at a discount. Also try following a regular schedule / take multiple days in a row.

    Couldn't really get myself to enjoy it. I liked having a routine, and it tasted "healthy", but I never figured out a formula that worked for me. I also didn't like the mess that came from needing to use a foamer each time (it doesn't dissolve well).

    Better form factor + taste?

    These are great for texture and nostalgia – if you're looking for "nuggs" then this fits the bill. I like having a box in my freezer for the occasional "treat". It's not amazing for flavor or natural ingredients, obviously. The spicy version is actually spicy, which I appreciate.

    Feedback

    I feel like the packaging could use some improvements – I'd rather it be a smaller box that's more densely packed.

    My style is pretty simple, so I really appreciate the focus on basics. The clothes are relatively comfortable, and I appreciate the focus on using sustainable practices and materials. The website is quite easy to use, and Everlane is probably one of the only brands I enjoy shopping for.

    Feedback

    I don't have a great reference point for this, but I don't always feel like the clothes are the most durable. Perhaps all jeans eventually get holes?

    quip has a nice-looking brush and relatively simple design that makes it nice for travel and replacing the brush head. It's probably not the *best* brush in the world, but changing my brush head every few months isn't something I'm going to remember on my own.

    The subscription management is maybe the worst I've ever seen from a brand – you have to wait until your next shipment is "ready" in order to skip it

    Magic Spoon

    I'm conflicted about Magic Spoon. I love the concept (a big fan of easy + healthy + tasty foods), but the execution isn't fully there. I do like the more traditional cereal flavors like Peanut Butter and Fruity. Most notably, there's a strong "after-texture" that makes the food stick in your teeth. (I've noticed this with some other allulose-based products.) Otherwise it's pretty similar to normal cereal. I'm happy to eat it occasionally for a lazy breakfast, but I usually only order more if there's a promotion.

    Feedback

    Price point is steep, considering the box size is deceptive – I get maybe two bowls per box.

    Verb Energy

    I've been a happy Verb customer for over a year. I don't love coffee and sometimes need a midday pick-me-up, so Verb was a welcome addition to my life. I keep a few in my bag at all times and will have up to three per day. Super portable, subtle effect, great flavors, and very pleasant texting experience to manage orders.

    Feedback

    I wish the packaging was more sustainable and that there was less sugar.
