Pros and cons
Arrival Creatine
Pros
- Third-party tested, which most creatine brands in this ranking do not state
- Vegan and organic credentials, unusual for a creatine monohydrate tub
- Serving cost of $1.50 sits high in the creatine and pre-workout ranking
Cons
- Support runs on email only, with no chat or phone listed
- Product types cover creatine, so protein, pre-workout and electrolytes have to come from elsewhere
- Protein per serving is 0 g, so the tub is a standalone supplement rather than a protein source
MaximumSlim
Pros
- Entry price of $19.99 ranks 37 of 157 brands, so a single pack is an easy outlay.
- A subscription takes 20% off later orders, lowering the renewal side of the bill for regular buyers.
- The range covers multivitamins, vitamins minerals and greens, far broader than ProSolution Plus, whose catalogue is vitamins minerals.
Cons
- Per serving ranking of 85 of 121 is weaker than the entry price ranking, so daily use costs more than the pack price implies.
- Support runs on email and help centre, with no phone or chat line in the listed options, so quick answers depend on written replies.
- Product types stop at multivitamins, vitamins minerals and greens, while DocMorris lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, so sleep, stress and collagen buyers get nothing from this range.
Who each suits
Arrival Creatine
Who it suits
- Lifters who want one ingredient and third-party testing rather than a blended formula
- Vegan and organic buyers who read certification labels before buying
- US shoppers who would rather subscribe and pay less per order than buy a tub outright
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants pre-workout, electrolytes or protein from the same brand, since Body Attack covers all of them and Nuun covers electrolytes
- Buyers who want a choice of flavours, as Arrival Creatine lists 1 flavour
- People who want phone or chat support, since Arrival Creatine offers email only
MaximumSlim
Who it suits
- US buyers who want multivitamins, vitamins minerals and greens ordered from a single supplier
- Daily supplement users who judge cost by $1.67 a serving rather than the pack price
- Shoppers who want a 60 day money back window before committing to a greens coffee order
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers after sleep, stress or collagen lines: DocMorris lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, none of which the MaximumSlim range covers.
- Shoppers who want a short, single category catalogue: ProSolution Plus stays on vitamins minerals and keeps the range narrow.
- People who only want vitamins and minerals listed: TestRX covers vitamins minerals and nothing wider, which is simpler to shop.

Questions about each
Arrival Creatine
How much does Arrival Creatine cost to start?+
The tub is priced from $44.99, which is the first order rather than a subscription order. On a per-serving basis it works out at $1.50. If you subscribe, the discount of 15% to 26% applies to repeat deliveries and brings the per-order cost down.
Is Arrival Creatine third-party tested?+
Yes, the creatine is third-party tested, and the certifications listed are vegan and organic. That combination is the main quality argument for the brand, and it is stated on the product listing rather than inferred from the ingredients.
MaximumSlim
How much does MaximumSlim cost to start with?+
The Original Green Coffee pack is listed at $19.99, and each serving works out at $1.67. Buyers sampling a single product can judge the outlay from the pack price, while daily users should read the per serving figure, since that is the line that repeats.
What does subscribing change on the bill?+
A subscription takes 20% off later orders, so the entry price and the renewal price are separate figures. Shoppers who will reorder can plan around the lower number, and shoppers who expect to stop after a short run of orders should not count on the saving.
