Too unpredictable

By Jacque Ohl-Trlica, Central Coast, CA, Verified Reviewer

My first delivery was perfection; great style, perfect fit, and really fun clothes that I will wear often. Then came the second shipment, and it looked like someone made a mad dash through Walmart, threw in some charcoal gray, oversized sweat pants and top along with a denim tattered pocket shirt from the 70's, as well as a pair of culotte length denim capri's three sizes too big that I wouldn't wear on a camping trip, let alone in public.

Sorry, but hook me in with my original stylist, and I'll consider staying on for another box of clothes, but if it is a luck of the draw with who will pick your clothes for the next shipment, then I just don't want to be hassled with the unpredictability of that. I've heard this story repeated with several friends, so I doubt I will bother with a third shipment. I frankly have other things to do with my time.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Unbelievably bad clothes at unbelievably bad prices

By Amrita Devi, Phoenix, AZ, Verified Reviewer

I thought it would be fun to try this service, and I clearly filled out their surveys to let them know that I prefer cool colors in natural fabrics. What arrived was a box of cheap, warm synthetics with high price tags. I went to their website to send everything back and cancel my account. Then, mysteriously, an email arrived in my inbox thanking me for scheduling my next "fix!" I did not, nor will I ever again!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

All garbage clothes, wrong sizes

By Ces, New York City, NY, Verified Reviewer

Don't waste your time. Clothes are all garbage and highly marked up. Plus I spent one and a half hours filling out a style profile only for them to completely disregard it and send me what they want. I am getting my styling refund back since this is a joke.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I feel like I was scammed...

By Ellen Fitzgerald, Chicago, IL, Verified Reviewer

I would like to start off, that they did not ask for my measurements. This should have been my first tip off, that the items they sent might not fit well. I consider myself a medium or size 8, but with the way women's clothes are sized these day, I might as well say I am a size orange banana. All of the clothes I received were VERY large on me. Although I indicated my style, and even created an entire Pinterest page with outfits that I would wear, the clothes were far from my fashion comfort zone.

One item I received was literally the ugliest shirt I have ever seen in my life. I really wanted this to work, I hate shopping and it seemed like a dream come true. I even considered giving them a second shot to get it right, but so far I ended paying $20 to receive ugly clothes that didn't fit me and an extra errand I really didn't have the time to run. So I say, fool me once Stitch Fix, shame on you. I won't let you fool me twice, you time wasting scammers.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Good Addition to My Closet

By Liz, Indianapolis, IN, Verified Reviewer

I started receiving "fixes" this summer. There has been some hits and misses but this has definitely broadened my typical style. My stylist has challenged me to try new things and I don't think I would have selected most of the clothes if I saw them in a store. Is it cheap? No, but it is reasonable and I am fine with paying someone $20 to select clothes.

I think it's fun to try new designers that are not in the typical department stores. It is fun receiving the box at your doorstep.

Returning is never a hassle, very convenient.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A working mom's dream come true!

By Amy, United States, Verified Reviewer

I have used Stitch Fix since July 2014. A friend recommended and she received $25 off her next purchase. I think if you work with the concept, you will be happy in the long run. I have a full time job, a grad student, and two school aged/teen daughters my spouse and I chase after.

Going to the mall is for them and a nightmare for me. It is worth the $20 to have this company send me a box as often as every 2-3 weeks or as little as 4 times annually. They ship it to your home or office and you have 3 days to try it in your own comfort.

I usually pair it with other items in my closet. I have kept entire fixes and sent back entire fixes. When I accept or reject an item, I give them notes on what worked or did not. It took about 3 fixes before they "got me". If I keep one piece, I consider it a success. I have noticed when discussing it with my friends, it is either great I would love that!

So if you watch your dollars and like to hunt in the racks, this might not be for you.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love it.

By Kathy, Oklahoma City, OK, Verified Reviewer

I decided to try Stitch Fix to see if I could get a little boost in my wardrobe. I've received 3 fixes so far and have loved items in each box. The first fix I sent back 3/5 but only because the stylist sent me things so similar to things I already have in my closet. I knew she had paid attention because she did nail my taste and my style so perfectly!

I added more things to my Pinterest Board and I sent specific requests to my stylist to please move me out of my comfort zone, which is exactly what she did with my next two fixes. I've kept all 5 items in each of those boxes. My stylist continues to hit my style but she's adding colors and patterns I don't normally wear and I'm receiving a lot of compliments.

I want to add that, on my first fix, I misunderstood the amount of time I had to send things back. I thought I had 5 days, so I sent my 3 return items back on Day 5 and not Day 3. Stitch Fix had no issues with that, did NOT charge me or send me any type of nasty email, they simply did the return without any hassle at all. I have wholeheartedly recommended this site to friends and would continue to do so.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Cheap quality and not worth the money

By Lisa, Nashville, TN, Verified Reviewer

I just received my fourth box from Stitch Fix and canceled my subscription today. Everything they send is usually from the Macy's or Nordstrom's Rack and if you do a quick online search, you can find the exact same items for less than half of what Stitch Fix charges you. In this last fix I received, there was a Collective Concepts dress that I loved but wasn't willing to pay $88 for. I went on eBay and found the exact same dress, same brand, brand new with tags for $19.99. Same thing with jeans and a jacket they sent. Their jewelry is cheap boutique junk that they sell for close to a 70% markup and despite my detailed descriptions of what I like, nothing I've received has been anything close to my style. I am not a fan. Take yourself to the mall and shop at Nordstrom's or online, you'll find the exact same stuff for way cheaper. And don't get charged a $20 styling fee every time they ship something.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Exciting, but expensive for low quality

By Andrea, Los Angeles, California, Verified Reviewer

I've tried a few fixes, but they never seem to get the size right. Everything tends to be boxy (probably with the goal of fitting the most people). I recently created a Pinterest board just for Stitch Fix reference, and waited with eager anticipation. It is exciting receiving a box, but that's always where the excitement ends.

For my most recent fix, with an updated profile, Pinterest board, and detailed message, the five items could have been for anybody, and were so bad that I gave up my $20 and returned EVERYTHING! Nothing matched my height, which I've mentioned countless times to them (36" inseam). The price was WAY too high for the low quality of most of the items, and even if I "discounted" items with the $20 I already spent, I wouldn't buy them for the $20-off price. That is BAD.

I received stretchy pink yoga pants (way too short on me), that were $98. Who pays $98 for yoga pants? A white, completely see-through peplum top, a cheap-looking pink necklace that was $38 (I wouldn't have paid $5 for it in the store), a pretty green dress that was again too short and low quality (I would have paid $20 for it, not $70), and a boxy cardigan that hung on me, with no shape whatsoever. I love cool colors, and nearly everything on my Pinterest board is navy, yet I was given all this pink and white stuff, none of which fits, all of which is WAY overpriced. Very disappointed.

Company offered NO HELP when it was needed

By Ruby Steede ,

I was really enjoying my Stich Fix deliveries up until last week when I unfortunately lost my debit card and had to cancel it. I received an email from this company asking me to update my card information and I tried as soon as I got their email, but I had forgotten my password. I sent SEVERAL emails for help to resolve this matter and did not receive any, just more nasty emails. After a couple of days of aggravation over this matter I am 100% sure I DO NOT want to business with a company that is not for their customers.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

How do I cancel?

By Donja , Portland, OR

I stuck with Stitch Fix for well over a year. I would say I kept half the stuff, however, I think I regret keeping half the stuff I kept.

Last month I thought I was successful in canceling my account. Well, I just received another shipment. I've been sending Stitch Fix emails requesting to cancel my account and have only received an email stating that my email has been received but not confirmation that its been canceled.

I'm starting to get very upset. Any tips on how to permanently cancel my account?

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
