Easy to use
4 Stars
Easy to use
Easy to use the cheek swab. Everything included in the kit to send back. It took about a month to get results which was expected. An email was sent to inform me that my results were in. It was very intriguing to see some of my other roots I was not aware of, and the lists of pages and pages of people who share segments of my DNA, linking them to be distant cousins I didn't even know I had. 4 stars because I feel the website is a little confusing to navigate. It's not so much phone friendly, so a desktop would be the best option to look further into it. I'm happy otherwise.
