What Our Customers Say
We reviewed 3,646 reviews. Five things were mentioned most frequently
What comes up time and again in the reviews
1. Taste
Unfortunately, most medicinal mushrooms aren’t very palatable—some are even bitter. For us, taste is a key development criterion, because a routine only sticks if it tastes good. This is the aspect that receives the most praise. “This stuff is amazing—it tastes great, intense yet well-balanced.” - Sven G., Mushroom Cacao
2. Shipping
Orders typically ship within 1–2 days. “Lightning-fast” is the phrase that comes up most often. “Fast delivery times, excellent products.” - Customer from Nuremberg
3. Customer Service
No AI ticket system—just real people with names and expertise. Individual employees are mentioned by name with striking frequency. “The cup that came with the order was broken, but thanks to Aleksandra, I’m getting a replacement. Thank you so much.” — Karin
4. Suitability for Daily Use & Effects
Most people don’t describe a single experience, but rather a regular habit: coffee in the morning, tea in the evening. “Mushroom Tea has been a regular part of my evening routine for several weeks now.” — Lisa
5. What’s Being Criticized
Most commonly: the price, and the fact that the flavors of certain varieties aren’t to everyone’s taste. We take both of these concerns seriously—if you’re dissatisfied, let us know, and we’ll find a solution.
We're not the only ones saying that

Our customers say: Yes, absolutely! Many of them reorder regularly and love their experience with smaints. And we, too, stand fully behind our products. We see ourselves as a quality leader in the field of medicinal mushroom products: organic medicinal mushrooms from Europe, double-extracted, bioavailable, and our products are independently tested in German laboratories. Since 2020, over 35,000 people have placed orders with us.
Most often, it’s the price and the taste of individual varieties. We’re intentionally not the cheapest—organic ingredients, sourcing from Europe instead of China, dual extraction, and lab testing of every batch all cost more. If you don’t like a product, please let us know, and we’ll find a solution.
The Thyroid Complex is one of our highest-rated products. It was launched in September 2025 and quickly became a bestseller. Reviews primarily highlight its good tolerability, ease of use in daily life, and success in addressing thyroid-related issues.

We started out as a UG and are now operating as smaints GmbH. Older reviews and screenshots therefore still use the old name. The company is still run by the same team from Thuringia, led by founders Maximilian Endter and Christian Jung.
