Wantable Review 2025: What I Kept, Sent Back & Loved

I have been using Wantable for a few months now, ordered 2 boxes, kept many, as well as returned many too. Well, it has both pros and cons, but overall, I loved Wantable.

But before, if you haven't ever heard of it, Wantable is a clothing service where a real person (not AI) designs your clothes based on your answers to quiz questions. Those boxes can have jeans, tops, dresses or cozy sweaters. From the list, you keep the items that you like and return the others.

"From the second box onward, the stylist starts learning your preferences based on what you return, and by the third box, most items actually feel right."

My First Wantable Box Was Just Okay

My first box doesn't feel like one prepared for me. It felt more like a packet of random items. Well, not all were bad, but I didn't even like them too much. In fact, I already owned some of those products that they have sent.

But from the second box, the collection started to improve. The stylist may have begun to know my preferences better, knowing what I have returned. In short, you will start loving the items sent from the third box.

What I Returned

Generally a Wantable box has 5-7 items, from which you get options to keep or return. If you keep more than 5 products, then you get 20% off on the box.

On my first box, I got six items: Topanga Printed Midi Dress, North Hampton Shorts, Waffle Long Sleeve Top, Marley Capri Pant, Cropped Denim Jacket, and Pink Floral Scarf. From these, I kept the first 4 and returned the other 2 items.

Tips That Helped Me Get Better Boxes

With every box, I learned new things that applied to the next one to get a better box. Here are a few that you can also apply:

Note: Stitch Fix is one of the best alternatives to Wantable. If you're comparing the two, you can read our full breakdown in Wantable vs Stitch Fix.

Things I Didn't Like About Wantable

We know nothing is perfect, and the same goes for Wantable. There are a few things that really upset me.

1. Boxes Don't Always Match the Season

They don't always send boxes according to the season. Once, in my May box, I got a sweater. Honestly, who wears a sweater in summer?

2. Pricing Can Run High

The pricing of some of their products is really high. I mean, who pays $36 for a scarf? Maybe a rich kid can.

3. Promo Codes Don't Always Work

Their promo code feature doesn't always work. I got one promo code through a marketing email from Wantable and tried it a few weeks later, but it didn't work. Maybe the date had expired, but seriously, who gives a promo code that expires in just a week?

Should You Try Wantable?

If you haven't tried any clothing subscription service, you should definitely try Wantable at least once. Don't worry, it's not going to cost you a lot - you can always return the whole box (if you don't like any items) for just a $20 fee.

Yes, it may take 2-3 returns to match your preferences perfectly, but once it's matched, you will never regret it.

Conclusion

So, would I order again? I already did - and I added a note for "soft fall layers in cozy colors." Wantable isn't perfect, but once the stylist learns your taste, the boxes genuinely start to feel personal.

If you want clothes picked for you without the effort of browsing endlessly, Wantable is worth trying at least once - just give it a few boxes before you judge it.
