“I ordered a personalised Lego keyring. I did not expect anything spectacular but for the price I thought there would be more effort put in to it. Asked for a farmer look and a fisherman turned up.”

“This is my first time using Firebox and while the products are very creative I was disappointed with the gadget mystry box I received. I appreciate the mystry factor of the gift but one product had corroded batteries and the products included didn't seem worth the price. Despite this I will be using it again but not for the mystry boxes due to this experience.”

Hey there! Thank you so much for taking the time to review Firebox, though sorry that the Gadget Mystery Box wasn’t the experience both of us would have wished for! We try and curate an interesting selection of mysterious contents but unfortunately on this occasion it sounds like we’ve not given you the joy we’d hoped for. Your feedback is really helpful, and we’ll make sure our Buying team consider it when we rejig the contents for the next box! We have contacted you directly about replacing any faulty/defective items. We wouldn't dream of charging you for something that doesn't work. We look forward to your response and resolving this ASAP. Speak soon, Firebox

“Firebox made me laugh but I ordered a whacky waving inflatable tube man and it took a month to come, and it kinda broke already.”

Thanks for taking the time to review Firebox, Patrick! We looked into your order and can see that the chosen delivery method was international untracked with delivery estimated for July 24th - July 30th. So it sounds like it has arrived within the estimates at the checkout seeing that today is July 28th! We're so sorry to hear you Wacky Waving Inflatable Tube Guy isn't waving as it should! 😱 We've contacted you directly to arrange a replacement or a refund, whichever works for you. We look forward to hearing from you soon! The Fireboxers

“What AMAZING customer service. I often feel a little irritated with online shopping because it feels like because the personal, face-to-face element that comes with retail shopping is removed and that can be reflected in customer service interactions. I ordered a crying unicorn candle for a friend's birthday and due to the situation with Covid the mailing was seriously delayed. Worried that the item might not have shipped at all I reached out to Firebox and they responded within a few days, their service was extremely personable and I DID end up receiving my item, which, by the way, is awesome. Definitely a great gift for my friend! I love this company, and will definitely be keeping it bookmarked for presents in the future. Thanks Firebox!”

We're sorry for the delays experienced, but we are glad you reached out to us about it. We completely understand how disappointing it can be when your awesome surprise doesn't arrive when expected. We thank the courier lords for working their magic and getting your unicorn home! 🦄✨ Happiest (belated) bornday to your friend, hope they enjoy the magical-and-somewhat-sad light of our teary mystical friend 🎉 'Till next time, Firebox

“Having waited for ages for Sloan the Sloth to come back into stock, I finally received mine a couple of weeks ago. There's no doubt he is insanely cute and very loveable BUT when I originally looked at these creatures, and ordered mine I am sure it also heated up. But alas, my sloth lacks a warm heart (or warm anything, to be honest). To add to my disappointment it appears I have received a distant relative of Sloan rather than the real McCoy as his arms are much shorter than I expected and won't even cuddle round my neck/shoulders (and I do not have a particularly fat neck), his little paws also do not hold together so I have to hold onto him so he doesn't fall off me! The 'massager' experience is more of a high powered vibrating thing. No gentle or in between mode, just full on pneumatic drill. Not pleasant. I have fibromyalgia and have a lot of pain in my neck and shoulders but sadly after my treatment with said Sloan the Sloth, the pain was worse :( I have shopped from Firebox for many years and always been delighted with Firebox and its service and products. However, MY Sloan the Sloth is but a poor impersonator of what it was supposed to be, a sloth in sheep's clothing, a furry fraud xx”

Hey Lorraine, Thank you so much for reviewing Firebox! We appreciate any and all feedback.

We look forward to hearing what works best for you. Speak soon, Firebox

“I got the Mini Me Personalized Doll on June 17 for my girlfriend. today is the 11th of July and she hasn't received it yet.”

Helpful Report

Posted 5 years ago

Hey Obinna, thank you so much for taking the time to review Firebox. We are so sorry your girlfriend did not receive her hunky mini doll as expected on July 8th - this is not at all the experience we both hoped for. We looked into your order and can see your parcel is out for delivery and should arrive today (July 13th). We e-mailed you directly the tracking for you to follow this yourself, do give your inbox a check! We are so sorry for the inconvenience caused, this really sucks. Unfortunately Canada Post has been rather overwhelmed due to the COVID crisis and the reduced number of planes for transit of goods. We wouldn't charge you for a service you didn't receive - it's only fair! So with this in mind, refunded you the postage, seeing as you didn’t get the delivery service you paid for with your hard-earned money. Unacceptable. The refund will be reflected in your bank account within a few working days. Don't hesitate to get back to us if you need anything further through e-mail. You can reach us at info@firebox.com All the best, The Firebox Team

Hey Abbie! Thanks for reviewing Firebox. We're so sorry to hear your super cute XL Bao Dumpling Light is scratched! 😱 Sounds like it had a rough and adventurous journey to you.

Hey Ben, thanks for taking the time to review us. So sorry to hear your spa experience with Sloan has not gone at all as planned. Sounds like he might be defective! No good for those shoulders at all. We'd love to help and rectify this, but unfortunately don't have any information on you or the order. We've messaged you privately to find out more! We'd love to arrange a replacement for you and your girlfriend as soon as possible. We look forward to hearing from you. Talk soon, The Firebox Team

“As my previous review stated, I had an order that never showed, and some delays in getting a response from customer service. However, they did eventually respond, and sent my order again, this time with tracking, at no additional charge to me. The package (I Love Spreadsheets mug) arrived this time, and the recipient absolutely loves it (and spreadsheets). I’m plenty pleased with the product, and appreciative of the company making things right. It might take a bit, but they will ultimately do right by the customer.”

“Hamm is fantastic!! Bought the Hamm money box as a treat for myself (hey everyone needs a treat once in a while don't they?) and I must admit the fact he was on sale swayed me, bought him on the 19th June and was told he would arrive on the 25th, lo and behold he arrived early (on Tuesday) I never expected him to be as big as he is or as good as he is and at £12 he's a complete steal (even at the original price he'd be well worth it). He now has pride of place on my mantelpiece and every time I look at him he makes me smile. A big thanks to you all and the delivery dude who made sure Hamm got to me in one piece.”

Hey Alison, Many thanks for reviewing Firebox! Pop all of your spare change into Hamm's slot and pray he doesn’t come to life, he’d probably be a bit confused as to how he got into your house. Cheers Firebox

“Firebox’s customer service is top notch! I ordered 2 small gifts for my nephew who lives in the USA and ran into some shipping/customs issues due to the pandemic. I reached out to customer service with my concerns and received prompt replies back on both the WhatApp and email. Eventually the gifts were received and my nephew has been happily driving everyone crazy repeatedly playing the jazz record on the world’s smallest turntable. Thanks so much for making him happy Firebox!”

Thanks for the review and feedback, Rachel! We're sorry that your Firebox order didn't quite make it within our initial estimates, we know this can be a little worrying. However, we're glad that the gifts (fantastic choices btw!) made it up to your nephew - the jazz record is a great tune!🎷 Until next time! The Firebox Team

“Excellent item. There was a bit of an issue with delivery. As I had purchased the item as a guest, I had no tracking number for the item. Even though I opened an account afterwards, there was no link to my order number. I now know I should have created an account before purchasing. Unfortunately, Royal Mail did not leave a card showing that delivery had been attempted, so without the tracking number, I was completely unaware. When I contacted Firebox, as no item had been received, they were extremely helpful and provided me with the tracking details and I was able to locate the parcel with Royal Mail, and collected the same from them.”

Hey Mama Mildred! Thank you so much for taking the time to review Firebox.

“Aside from the product being awesome, the customer service was phenomenal. The first time I received the parcel it was unfortunately damaged along the delivery journey, so after contacting Firebox, they promptly resolved the issue and sent me another mug free of charge!

“I ordered the Gameboy watch for my boyfriend's birthday, but it never arrived. I attributed this to the Covid pandemic, but then Firebox reached out to me to check if I was satisfied. I let them know that I hadn't received it yet, and they profusely apologized, refunded my shipping, and sent out another watch. It came fairly quickly and my boyfriend loves it. The high quality product and great customer service are sincerely appreciated!”
