I have been using Gousto for two years and I have to say I love it. The choice of food is great, we rarely have to repeat a recipe and the quality is high. Over the years we've had a couple of recipes we didn't love but overall we are totally sold - I couldn't imagine going back to having to plan meals myself every week. The instruction cards are really easy to follow and have taught us a few techniques that we didn't know before. Like some other reviewers I have had one or two problems with less than fresh ingredients but this has only been a couple of times over the two year period. It's also true that it is more expensive than buying from a supermarket but what you're paying for is the convenience of having everything delivered to your door, in the right portions and getting a variety of recipes without having to do the research yourself. My husband and I work long hours and a meal planning box is the best way to ensure that we actually cook our own food. As one or the other of us is working late and eating at the office most nights a four recipe box weekly has almost entirely replaced our weekly shop (we still have to get the basics like milk and eggs but our main meals at home are sorted). If I didn't work, or worked fewer hours I may cut back and organise some things myself but for now these boxes are a life saver.
