Easy to Use DNA kit
The kits instructions were very easy to follow and it comes with the prepaid shipping box so you can quickly get your spit sample on it's way. I'm so glad I did this. The results took time but, it was so worth the wait. I already found family members and I learned where my ancestors came from.

Make Sure You Have Alot Of Spit Worked Up!
It has been really cool exploring all that data the 23 & Me sends you once they complete your DNA profile and they did it in less than half the time they said it would (I had my results in about a week from when I sent in my sample). Speaking of sample, I was surprised at how hard it was to fill a relatively small tube with enough saliva! It took me a good 10 minutes to fill! I didn't really learn much about my ancestry as I had hoped but that was less because of 23 and Me and more about how my family is just a boring one that is almost completely from the UK, with the occasional German thrown in the mix. The health data was much more interesting, and funny enough, I got the results from my DNA test saying I had two copies of the Celiac Disease gene a couple of days after I received a diagnosis of Celiac Disease! It's not actually funny, I love bread and donuts like nobody's business and it has sucked a lot, but it was great to have it confirmed that I can blame both of my parents now! For me, it would not have been worth the full price of the kit (mostly because I'm so plain vanilla), but it goes on sale quite often. I got it during one of those sales and I'm quite happy with the purchase. Just be sure you are well hydrated prior to filling up the tube!

Bought as a gift
I got this as a gift for my mom who is 83 years old. My sister created the profile for her so we both have access to the information. I love having access to the health and ancestry information. Shortly after loading the information we starting getting hits from distant parts of the genetic tree asking to connect. Knowing the health information is amazing and I had to smile as I saw the traits listed and realized how accurate they are. I'm buying one for my sister and myself for Christmas. I am the last male in my father's line as his brother had only daughters and my father is passed away so it is really important to get that data out there. Going to get the basic dna test for my uncles son so we have that line which is otherwise lost to us.
