Oh! I can speak to Misfit, and I can share a discount code if you’re interested.
We got misfit boxes a few times. We live in rural KY so I was a little surprised they served out area. IIRC the box usually shipped late Monday afternoon and arrived at our place Wednesday early afternoon, just about 48 hrs in transit.
With discount codes and ordering the largest size box it worked out to about $2-$2.50 a pound. We got to select things we preferred and didn’t prefer, but we’re never assured of exactly what we’d receive ahead of time. Some things needed used immediately. Some things could wait. For us the best part was having some varieties that are just not available in our small local store and having more variety in winter and avoiding stores mid covid. The handful of potatoes and sad looking oranges were not exciting but the rainbow colored radishes and fennel and bok choy were lovely!
Misfit delayed our delivery a couple times during the first covid panic. That was understandable, but hard because we were counting on that delivery and had nothing fresh in the house for days, always expecting it to arrive the next day. But, really, I couldn’t be too upset, everyone had a lot going on. Then we had one box that spent more than a week in transit, but I think that was all the transit’s fault. Amazingly, though the ice was long melted almost everything in that box was still edible. We tossed a mango and some tomatoes but I think we were able to salvage the rest.
The ice packs were filled with a plant food you could safety dump down the drain or use on your lawn. There was a lot of cardboard. Some things were packaged, mostly in cardboard or paper wrapping, some compostable bags that started to disintegrate in all the vegetable dampness.
Our conclusion was that it wasn’t really worth it but it was fun to try new things and have some variety. Maybe we’ll try a few in the dead of winter again. Or maybe we’ll build a little cold frame and grow some greens on our own...
