Jbox Haul (Sponsored) review!

Hey everyone!

Have you heard about JBox.com? Because if you haven't, I highly suggest you visit JBox now. Especially if you love Japan, or just cute things in general! JBox was super nice and sent me quite a few things for review, so I can show you all how great they really are. (And trust me, they're fantastic. Just wait until you see my items!)

So, what all did I get?





So, in order of size, from smallest to largest (because I need some way to organize this review, right?), I'll review the items, and then I'll review the whole thing overall!

Socks Glue:


Sock glue! I keep mentioning to people that I got this, and everyone seems to get this confused look on their face and ask what it is. Which is understandable, since I'm fairly certain I had that exact same look on my face when I saw this on their website. But after hearing what it did, I had to have it. 

Although I absolutely love thigh hi tights and socks, I hate that they never want to stay up. Within a few minutes, they're usually always down past my knees, refusing to stay where I want them to. And a garter belt just doesn't look quite right with certain outfits, so how do I fix this problem otherwise? 

Apparently, the answer is really simple! Sock glue. This handy little thing keeps your socks staying up while you go about your day, all you have to do is apply it to your skin where the sock sits, and it stays on, simple. 

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test it out yet, since it's the middle of summer, and since it's 85 degrees out, I'd rather stay away from thigh his. But as soon as a cool day hits, I'll be sure to try it out and tell you guys how it works!

When you order it from the website, you either get the cute little blue container I received, or a similar one in pink (man, am I sad I didn't get pink...). You can check it out here: Socks Glue.


Pan Pita - Square Push Style Sandwich Maker
and
2 Sizes Triangle Onigiri Maker - Large & Small:




I have, unfortunately, been unable to use the onigiri maker yet. I just bought a rice cooker, and I still need to go out and get rice for it before I can try it out. I wanted to wait, but I didn't want to postpone this interview any longer than what I have. So I'll be showing you my onigiri-making adventures in another blog post coming shortly.

I have, however, used the sandwich maker. And it worked very well, leaving me with a cute sandwich with no crust!





(And it was delicious, by the way.)

Itazura Cat Coin Bank -- Calico Cat:

This was definitely the thing I was most excited for with my order from them. It is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Just take a look:


Isn't it adorable?!

It even meows. Right before the lid opens, and as it closes. This is the best coin bank I have ever seen. The only downside to it is that sometimes it's little paw can't quite grip dimes. I think they're too small for them to work 100% of the time. But they will still work if you position them just right.




Even the 'cardboard' box is pretty cute. It looks really cute on my nightstand, and I just love putting in coins and hearing the cute little meow, and seeing the paw reach out. I have a feeling this will help me save quite a bit of money, with how much I love putting money into it.

So yeah, this was the item I was most looking forward to getting, and now that I have it, it's definitely my favorite item! Everything about it is fantastic.

Get this cute Coin Bank here!

My Neighbor Totoro Bento Box Bag -- Type A:




I really needed a lunch box to take to work with me, since I'm now working, and so far, I have found that this one is absolutely perfect. It's the perfect size for my water bottle, a sandwich, chips, and a small snack. The inside is thermally lined, so it helps keep warm things warm and cold things cold. It's been a lot of use to me so far, and I absolutely love the cute 'My Neighbor Totoro' design. (I loved that movie as a child!).

Gray Angel Wing Hoodie:


Anybody that knows me well, knows that I absolutely adore angel wings. So when I saw this hoodie, I knew that I had to have it. Unfortunately, with it being in the middle of summer, I can't exactly get much use out of it. But come fall, I'm going to really enjoy having this. It's really comfortable, and also really cute!




It's one-size and it fits a bit tight over my chest, but as long as I don't zip it up all the way, which is how I prefer my hoodies anyway, it's wonderful. It's still nice and cozy all zipped up, and not uncomfortable at all, just tighter than I prefer my hoodies to be at my chest.

Buy this beautiful sweater here.
Or check it out in black here.

So, overall:

Sock Glue: ?/5 (Blog Post will come as soon as possible with me trying this out. But the idea is fantastic!)
Sandwich Maker: 5/5 (Does exactly what it's suppose to do!)
Onigiri Maker: ?/5 (This will be it's own blog post soon! Look forward to it!)
Coin Bank: 1054221/5 (Words cannot express just how much I love this coin bank!)
My Neighbor Totoro Lunch Bag: 5/5 (Perfect for my lunch, and super cute!)
Angel Wing Hoodie: 5/5 (Comfortable and cute! Exactly what a hoodie should be.)

Overall product quality: 5/5!

---

Shipping: 5/5

Everything came really well packaged, and the delivery took less time than estimated. I actually received it quite a few days before I was suppose to. A really pleasant surprise!



---

Communication: 5/5

Communication was really great. Most of the time, I got a response to my questions at least within a day. The only exception was a three day gap, which was understandable since that gap landed on the weekend! JBox was so helpful and very nice, so their customer service was definitely A+!

---

So, over all, I would say JBox definitely deserves a well-earned 5/5 for wonderful products, fantastic communication, and excellent shipping. I highly recommend them to all of you.


(And be sure to look forward to a couple blog posts about Sock Glue and Onigiri, coming soon!)

Thanks JBox!
