Amazon: What is the frustration-free packaging?

Question by Guest | 2017-04-18 at 10:45

After my last Amazon order, suddenly I got the option to order my selected product with the so-called "frustration-free packaging" or not.

I have no idea what this term could mean, so I want to ask you before ordering. Can someone explain what a packaging could have to do with frustration?

The frustration free packaging is a Amazon initiative for waste reducing and to spare customers the frustration of unpacking.

The idea: It is often hard to open conventional packaging and wrapping. Sometimes you even need additional tools, a knife or scissors to get to the product. I am especially thinking about cables or memory cards in hard plastic cases or things that are put together with cable ties.

Amazon is now working together with the manufacturers so that the products are put into other packaging directly at the manufacturer. The packaging should provide the possibility to directly ship it as package by post. With this, the packaging is much easier to open without any additional tools and of coarse you are saving very much waste because the products are not packaged twice.

The products themselves are of course identical, no matter which packaging your take. In my opinion, it is always a good choice to take the frustration free packaging.
