Factor 75 Reviews
Factor 75 is a meal delivery and nutrition company with a focus on freshness and nutrition that delivers ready-to-eat meals.
The company offers lifestyle and nutritionally customized meal plans such as Keto, Paleo, Low-Calorie, Plant-Based, and Dairy-Free.
How Does Factor 75 Work?
All meals include high-quality, fresh ingredients and are prepared by a team of in-house expert dietitians and cooked by gourmet chefs.
Curious about what kinds of foods you might get? Factor 75 provides meal plans for every meal of the day, from breakfast to lunch and even dinner.
These organic foods include mouthwatering menu options like a bison burger, taco bowl, or even a Denver frittata cup. You choose the foods that you like best so you are never bored.
When you order, you will be presented with all the nutrition information you need. You learn everything you need to know about how the food was prepared, along with its ingredients.
You can find out its exact calories, whether it’s organic, or even whether it’s vegetarian. Foods are portioned and balanced appropriately to support optimal health.
You get to choose your own meals - but only if you want to. If you want Factor 75’s nutritionists to pick out your meals, they can do that by randomizing based on your taste preferences. Usually, Factor 75 can also accommodate specific diets and allergies.
Need to skip a delivery because you’re headed out of town? You can do that, too. Just make sure you press pause before you reach the cut-off date for the order.
You don’t even have to be home to accept a delivery, by the way, either. Deliveries are shipped Monday through Wednesday, depending on your address and delivery area.
What’s even better is that when you purchase a meal plan, you receive access to a complimentary 20-minute consultation with a dietitian. You can ask any kind of nutrition-related questions you want!

To prepare these meals, all you need to do is heat up the food in the oven or microwave and enjoy.
There’s no cooking required, yet the meals are shipped fresh - not frozen. Young et to pick your own meals so you don’t have to worry about getting bored, either.

Factor 75 Competitors
Factor 75 isn’t the only name in the game when it comes to premade meal plans.
Factor 75 vs. Trifecta - Trifecta offers ready-made organic meals that are slightly more expensive on average than those of Factor 75.
Unlike Factor 75, however, Trifecta meals are available in all 50 states. Trifecta also offers more options for vegetarian and vegan eaters.
Factor 75 vs. Green Chef - Green Chef offers prepared meal kits instead of fully prepared meals.
The ingredients are fresh with both, but with Green Chef, you’ll have to do a little more work to put things together into an edible meal. Both offer weight-loss plans and are packaged with sustainable, recyclable packaging.
Factor 75 vs. Kettlebell Kitchen - Kettlebell Kitchen offers delicious food with plenty of meal subscription options yet has meals that are priced slightly less than those of Factor 75.
However, that’s not without a trade-off - you do still have to pay for shipping.
Factor 75 vs. Freshly - Freshly.com offers reasonable prices and a diverse menu filled with traditional American and Italian dishes.
All of the company’s foods are fresh and natural, and they don’t charge for shipping. However, shipping is only available to 27 states and there are only about 25 entrees and six breakfast choices available.
Online Customer Reviews & Complaints
Customers rave about the Factor 75 plans - as well as their results. Ratings are different from the ordinary diet review, claiming that the “food is amazing and well thought out.
Very large portions. Comes ready to eat, not frozen.” They also rave about customer service and how easy the meal plans fit into busy schedules.
You won’t find many negative reviews of Factor 65- unfortunately, though, the company is not BBB accredited so it’s difficult to see all the information regarding this relatively new company.

Scathing
I got my first box Tuesday. 4 days ago. I haven’t even tried one of these meals. My son tried one while I was at work yesterday and said it was good. The rest of my family refuses to eat them. That’s fine they will eat it eventually but in the meantime I was charged for next weeks delivery.
On Thursday, 2 days after my first delivery. I called customer service because I have a freezer full of meals and no room for more can they please hold off a couple weeks? They got my almost $200 for 18 frozen meals I would hope they could stall shipping a couple weeks. No such luck so this box of food is going to probably rot on my porch or be eaten by my local homeless people and dogs.
Never again. Maybe I’m petty but this inflexibility is too much for me. Good luck with this service they lure you in with 50% first time then charge you for the next one before you even get it in your freezer. Money grubbing. I tried to leave a review on their website literally cannot find a place to do so if anyone else has any luck let me know!
Do Not Trust this Company!!!
DO NOT DO Business with this company. I urge everyone who has had the kind of experience I am about to write or other bad experiences to also report it to the better business bureau, it's the only way to stop them from doing bad business.
I had my account on suspend as I only use it when I am travel nursing. They delivered a box that should never have gotten ordered to my last assignment address.
I contacted them as soon as I got the email. They said they could not re route the box to my home address because the label was already printed, ok but it was not sent out yet.
All they had to do was reprint the label. They refused. Then I spent two days and talked to 5 people before they agreed to refund my money for that box I was never going to receive.
After waiting 10-15 days for the refund to hit my account, which it never did, I called again. They could not provide any document that they processed the refund. Instead they said my account was a charge off and I needed to contact my bank, somehow they did not let the refund go through. BS, banks do not stop money from going into your account. I called my bank and they saw no attempt of a refund.
So I had to cancel my card and dispute the charge to get my refund. It will take another 10-15 days for the bank to make a decision. This company listed my account as a charge off so they could keep the money and now the bank has to loose the money and I have to get a new card and contact all my creditors again.
The bank told me to report them to better bus. bureau. This is dishonest and not the way you do business or treat your customers. I was going to try them again because they finally gave me a refund but now I will report them and NEVER use this service again. Please do not trust them to do the right thing!!!
Questionable Food Hygiene Practices for Shipping
The food is good quality if pricey. But beware: one of our deliveries was running more than 24 hours late and the customer service tried to pan me off with a $5 delay credit. Remember that this is fresh food. It's not worth food poisoning.
Do Not Order if you have food allergies
If you are a picky eater don't order from them
I wanted to try a meal delivery service. Decided to try Factor. Cons mentioned pricey, but that was OK because they offered gluten free.
Before you can actually view the products they offer you have to give them All of your info. If I had stopped there I wouldn't be writing this review. But I really wanted to try a delivery service.
The options weren't for me. It wasn't anything to do with them, I'm just too picky. So I immediately canceled. 6 days later I get an alert from my bank that this company took money out of my checking account. Nope, nope, nope.
So I called to request a return of funds and cancellation of service. I was told that even though they acknowledge that I canceled there was a glitch in their system and that sent my order through anyway and that since the cut off to cancel my order was yesterday the only thing I could do was call my bank and request a stop payment.
Of course, bank can't stop a payment on a debit charge. So I have to file a fraud claim and hope I get my money back that way.
Scam Scam Scam!
Please don't even think about this company. You have to create an account and put your credit card info in before seeing the food options. Unfortunately I got scammed just like some other people in these reviews. I decided I didn't like any of their options and canceled my account within 10 mins of opening it. They charged my card anyway stating it was too late to make changes to my order. I did not order anything - They charged my card without my authorization and sent me 10 meals I didn't even want. And the people who say these meals are huge are lying - they are tiny.
SCAM
I had to input my credit card just to create an account. Once I created an account, I found out that they only offered Tuesday deliveries so I immediately canceled my account without placing an order.
I then called Factor to ensure my account was canceled. The rep assured me that everything was canceled and no charge will be placed.
Several days later, I found a charge on my credit card. I called again and was advised that the charge would be refunded. Now, I just got an email stating that my food is on it's way. I never even ordered food!! This company is a complete SCAM!!!
Charge you for services before you have ordered
Beware of this scam!
Very horrible food and a sleazy attempt to sign consumers up to a "subscription!" I never ordered a "subscription" for this garbage! It's a craft and very tricky way to attempt holding people and their money hostage! File a lawsuit immediately!
Great food!
Food Delivery Doesn't Get Any Better Than This
Factor 75 delivers delicious meals. The meals are fresh, not frozen. They are really tasty, and each meal has its own unique flavor. The variety keeps the selection from getting boring. I order from them just about every week a la carte.
The meals are higher in protein than what you can buy in the store. They are healthy.
I live in a hot part of the country, and the meals have arrived cold.
My only criticism is sometimes the broccoli and asparagus is not as fresh as I like, but I am very demanding when it comes to that, so I often supplement the meals by adding my own steamed vegetables.
Like I said, Factor 75 does an excellent job at providing very satisfying meals for people who don't have time to cook.
Fake reviews?!?
I feel like these are fake reviews...
I love the food, the portions are good, and everything is spelled out in kindergarten terms as to when the next shipment of meals should be picked out. They even send you reminder emails days before letting you know how much time you have left to change or hold your order.
Haven’t had to deal with customer service, so I can’t voice an opinion there, but I like the idea that I know the ingredients are organic, grass fed, etc...
I’m extremely happy that I chose this place over all the other options, and I did a lot of research before I made my choice, but hey... I’m just one person and not everyone is going like the same things :)
Customer service support is useless. I cancelled my subscription in October 2022 and received a confirmation with my final billing date and mean delivery date. I was hospitalized and/or in a physical rehab facility for several months (currently in January 2023). All my bills were auto pay so I wasn't very concerned about my accounts. I received a text from a neighbor telling me that there was a perishable box at the complex door, so I checked my accounts. PayPal was being charged weekly for meals that I could not have received. I called CS and was told hat the charges were valid since the meals were mailed. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was told he would call me within the hour. I tried two more times and was told the same things. I never have heard from a supervisor or anyone else. The meals were easy, small, and okay--not worth the nearly $20/meal I was paying.
Read this before worrying about the negative reviews!!
I felt compelled to review Factor75 because I read these reviews before I ordered and it made me hesitate because there are so many negative reviews. But after researching many companies, I went with them anyways because they are organic, Paleo, and/or Keto. I am so glad I ordered because I love the food! But I do have some insight into why some people may not.
First, I am not new to healthier eating. If you are expecting the meals to taste really strong, you know the chemically fake flavor that fast food or some other pre-packaged meals have, you may not like these. Don't get me wrong, these meals taste amazing to my husband and I, but it's certainly not what people on the SAD are used to.
Secondly, about the cooking. I feel like a lot of people are probably microwaving their meals and I would not recommend that. The meals are excellent in the oven. That being said, the cooking instructions are not very accurate. We cook our meals for more like 15 minutes in the oven, not the 5 that is on the package.
Lastly, I have had no problems with the ordering process. I felt like everything was explained well, I have had no "surprise" charges or orders, and find it very simple to pause on weeks I don't need food.
Great work, Factor75!
excellent for the busy schedule
The food was gross and they charge you for the 2nd box without notifying
I've tried 3 meals so far and the meat in each was bearable but the rest of the meal tasted like chemicals. I tried taking it out of the plastic container before microwaving it but it didn't make a difference. Huge waste of food and money because I can't eat any more of that. I don't know what they do to that food to ruin it, but they're doing something weird.
They also charge you for the 2nd box without notifying you or letting you pick what you want. I will be disputing the charges with my credit card company.
Delicious food!
A Scam!
Rip Off and Poor customer service
RIP OFF!!! This is the absolute worst "gourmet" delivery service I have ever used. The food is beyond lackluster, no flavor and a total rip off in terms of portions. Also, for example the photo showed the taco bowl with a side of cheese and it arrived with a side of shredded ice berg lettuce.
I tried to change my order for the following week and because I am on the pacific time zone, I missed my cutoff to change my order by a few hours. Each and every meal they sent is super spicy, which is something I do not like.
All and all, I have never been more disappointed by a food delivery company, the quality of the food or the horrible customer service. Knowing how upset I was about the first shipment I think they should have tried to save a customer by at least trying to exchange out the spicy meals but they did not.
They are in the process of "changing kitchens" and perhaps this is why the food tastes so horrible.
This was a TREMENDOUS WASTE OF MONEY. BUYER BEWARE!
