"They require you to be pretty adept with a chopping knife and good at prep work, while assuming that the only ingredient you own is cooking oil."

Yes, that was pretty much what we experienced as well. The prep time was often much longer than 20~30 minutes, and really took the fun out of it.

Admittedly, it was all very tasty but for us, it created more pain than it solved. We tried Plated to see if it was better but it pretty much was the same experience.

I found both prep time and quantity of food varied really widely. Sometimes I was chopping for what felt like hours, other times you just had to mix stuff together and fry it for five minutes. And then make a second dinner, because you'd been given two spoonfuls of seeds and a pearl onion.
