17 Giftable Subscription Boxes (2025), Tested and ReviewedNEWS | 12 May 2025Choosing the perfect gift can be difficult, but subscription boxes make it easy. Whether you're shopping for a birthday an anniversary or a holiday—for yourself or someone else—there are oodles of boxes to choose from, from food to beauty to tech to home goods. You can opt for one month, but we think three months is the ideal subscription box length. That way, your giftee can open a present over and over again. We've hand-tested all of the recommendations below, like our top pick for self-care, Therabox.
These subscription boxes don't require contracts. You can cancel or pause them (just make sure to check the fine print to see if you need to give advance notice before the billing period). If you purchase a multiple-month subscription, you can cancel the automatic renewal, but you won't get money back for the boxes that haven't shipped yet. We've noted when boxes have separate gift options, which typically cost a little more, but you won't have to worry about canceling.
Be sure to check out our many other gift guides, including gifts for women, gifts for moms, gifts for men, and gifts for grads.
Updated May 2025: We've removed five older picks and added Therabox, Fikabröd, Trade Coffee, and Grill Masters Club. We also updated pricing throughout.Author: Julian Chokkattu. Louryn Strampe. Adrienne So. Boutayna Chokrane. Ryan Waniata. Martin Cizmar. Parker Hall. Nena Farrell. Source
