So their best selling set costs 180€ on their website. That is absurd. They look nice, but I’m not paying that kind of money for a couple of plastic cups.
The price is outrageous. You could just buy the grooming products you need when you land at your destination and save a lot of money. Or just change your daily regimen for the length of your trip for free. These containers are overkill.
"overpriced" but that's everything that's aesthetically pleasing. To truly lean into "aestheics" in the "Aesthetic VS Utility" axis means you shouldn't expect something lightweight, and since we're already leaning into the aesthetic, anesthetics aren't concerned about cost / price either.
I have the original small size of these. Initially I was sold on how it looks, magnetic feature, and how it packs nicely. But the user experience is not that great and they are expensive too, even when they are on sale! I don't like the idea of having to use 2 hands to open something, pouring it onto my hand, and then some how close the container while I have shampoo or whatever in one hand. A pump or flip cap is easier or just being able to close the container with 1 hand quickly is more preferable for me. The cadence jars are also very heavy too which is not a plus if you are traveling and plan on buying extra things at the destination. Overall you're paying top dollar for magnetic plastic jars. I think you're better off finding travel glass pumps online for the same weight class. Or even empty travel hand sanitizer containers would work better than these Cadence jars. 🤷♀
I had plans to get it when I first saw it on instagram, then I saw the price and realized what I’d be really paying in Canada with the exchange rate, and I couldn’t do it. Lol. Way over priced. Must be knock offs on Amazon by now. 😂
I've had six sets of the V1, they all leaked. So have written them off. Did you ever use the V1 of these? If you did do you notice and improvement on rims, tops, gaskets perhaps? I wouldn't bother paying to upgrade mine to the V2 but I would be willing to write to Cadence and see if they would send me a set as a replacement to the V1.
