    Kencko

    Very convenient compared to alternatives

    • Length of Use: Less than 3 months
    Overall Experience:

    I've tried the gamut of smoothie and supplement subscriptions and can honestly say that Kencko is a convenient option when compared with similar products.

    Let me start by saying that I am an ideal "fit" for this service as I was already invested in competing solutions: I want a convenient way to add more fruits and vegetables to my diet and am willing to pay for something convenient and enjoyable.

    I drink my daily Kencko as part of my morning ritual with my vitamins and supplements, and I appreciate that it does not add complexity to my routine. This is based on the ease of use, storage/shelf life, and portability of both the shaker bottle and drink packets.

    The powdered formulation in single-serving packets is easy to use at home or when traveling. I also find the daily variety of flavors and colors to be really fun!

    I've previously used different services that offer fresh juice (needs to be refrigerated) or frozen smoothie components (needs to be blended). Both scenarios leave me doubtful of my ability to use long-term as I am either concerned I will not be able to finish fresh juice before it expires, or I may not have regular access to a blender if I am not at home.

    Kencko addresses both of these concerns as I do not have to worry about the packets expiring before I can finish them, and am not dependent on consistent blender access.

    I am happy with the taste of every flavor I have tried so far. Some do stand out compared to others, but I will be getting the maximum variety possible again in my next box. My expectations and previous experiences with "healthy" drinks has me rate this similarly to the taste of other smoothie and juice products that I have enjoyed such as Daily Harvest and Raw Generation. I also find it to be more enjoyable to drink than other supplement powders such as HUM nutrition's collagen pops and Sweetkick's Body Balance Powder.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Ease of both storing the flavor packets and mixing the drink.
    • The flavor variety including seasonal offerings is compelling as it never gets boring!
    • The overall aesthetic and brand message makes me proud to use it out and about.
    • Customer service was friendly and easy to work with when I wanted to update my flavor choices.
    • Minimal information was offered on the site itself, I had to consult outside sources to make an informed buy decision.
    • Wasn't clear upon checking out with my first purchase that I could actually choose the flavors, so I was at first disappointed to only see 4 flavors in my box.
    • Website had a 3 for 2 month deal which I missed out on the first time I checked out, was not able to update my account to get the deal unless I cancelled my purchase.

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