“Very satisfied with my purchases so far. Great products and customer services. Website is easy to browse through. Shipping speed is decent, though could be faster as the household is used to Amazon Prime speed.”

“I wrote this message to the BBB over a month ago with no response sent to them or me. On 8/9/25 I made a purchase of $135 of hot sauce and wrote The following message to Heatonist company. Aloha to whoever receives this, multiple time returning customer who's purchased a couple of hot ones season packs. I recently saw that you've got the heat week deals going on right now. When I first clicked I was told that I am a chosen one for a special item and free shipping with an order over $65 when I click to confirm I was told that I am a returning customer so I don't get that. Right off the bat that's not cool and please don't be one of those companies. I've been through so much in the last two years when the creasing amount of scams and unprofessionalism in the last year. So if all goes well I hope that you're company will be true to the advertisement that was directed towards me. As of right now I have 135 worth of hot sauce in my checkout list/cart. I'm not sure what is going on but when I tried to log in on my phone once I had everything I wanted it kept hiccuping so then I moved to my laptop which then had me put in a password from my email once I did that it then said I didn't have anything in my cart and only recently reviewed items. I was starting to get disenchanted. I was somehow able to bypass that to get to my cart which did have all of my items in it and then when I try to check out it has me login again and then I have to type in some code from my phone. I highly recommend you fix whatever kinks or hiccups this is because not fun. I'm going to go ahead and pay right now so that these items don't get sold out but I sure hope that you are going to add some kind of gift to shipment/order S13050228 they didn't respond and they didn't give me any gift even after I've spent hundreds of dollars with their company. I will not be a returning customer and will not be advocating in any positive capacity towards this company until they make amends.”

“I have loved the products showcased in your show since I first discovered you in 2021. They do not disappoint. I have tried many and we had a family game of "Hot Ones"! Grandma is still the "Eater of Heat" and her favorite is Cosmic Disco from that particular season. My proclivity for hot, hotter, and volcanic started after I was 18. My adventures in heat were quite tame at first. A chance meeting through a monthly pepper club allowed for a job working with Chili Today Hot Tamale for Rob and Dave -"The Heat Brothers" of New York fame back in the late1980's and early 90's...Needless to say our hottest peppers then were Scotch Bonnets and Habaneros. You have helped bring us to the brink and beyond with inspired sauces and carefully curated finds.”

“Look you guys offer some cool stuff but you charge insane prices. I love Torchbearer Son of Zombie hot sauce and I don’t believe you carry it on your site, so I probably won’t be buying from you anytime soon.”

“Delivery: - extremely fast - that’s incredible - Bottles were shaken inside the box and all over the place (but not broken) ⇨ maybe the box design is not optimal regarding the delivery service handling. Taste of sauces in oder of the collection : 1 good but could use some more garlic 2 idk wasn’t that special 3 that’s really nice 4 awesome 5 okay not too special for nr. 5 6 awesome 7 awesome 8 its da bomb… but it certainly has a place in my heart”
