eHarmony review & experiences

In the eHarmony review, we present the premium dating site in detail and reveal whether it is worth taking out a membership and what chances of success you have to reckon with. Is this a reputable dating site, or is it better to sign up with a different one? Let’s find out!

Info! eHarmony and Parship belong to the same company, but Parship is designed more for the German market. German users are better off there. Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, eHarmony provides service in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia.

Registration with eHarmony

Registering with eHarmony is an ordeal and takes around 40 minutes if you fill it in correctly. The registration process is an important part of the site, because the questions will help you find suitable partners. Sometimes simple questions have to be answered here, sometimes only symbols have to be clicked, which one finds nicer. The algorithm was developed by the psychologist Prof. Dr. According to his statements, Hugo Schmale develops and is based on the scientific experience of the last 150 years in this area. Then you get access. However, you cannot search for singles in general, you can only filter the members suggested by the site.

Overview and design

The design of eHarmony is actually modern, but unfortunately we find the start page in particular a bit too crowded. In the header area you can find the most important things and access to the matches messages etc. but then there are a little too many areas. Among other things, dating guides are advertised, there is a link to YouTube, there is a search filter in the sidebar, in between there are profiles, but the sidebar continues with requests for premium membership. All of this is a bit too much from our point of view and could have been made a bit simpler. The profiles, on the other hand, are very nicely designed and also very clear.

EHarmony members

Over 10 million members are registered with eHarmony. Among them are around 750,000 who also have a premium membership and are therefore looking for a partner. Even if the 10 million sounds like a lot for the first time, hardly any of them will reply to messages because they need a membership to do so. Due to the rather high prices, we can imagine that not everyone is willing to pay the amount. Even among the 750,000, there should normally be more than enough suitable dates.

Special features of the website

In addition to the good algorithm, eHarmony offers some other special features. You can find a lot of advice and tips on dating on the website. In addition, a personality report with partner recommendations is included in the premium version. Do you need something like that? In our opinion not. You can also see how many points you agree with the members. From a value of 140, Parship says that they could be an excellent match.

There is also a very well implemented app for Android and iOS. This offers all the functions as well as the website, but is much more practical if you chat a lot from your smartphone.

There is also a Success Stories section on the website. Personally, we always find this point a bit superfluous, since only the best are published there anyway.

eHarmony Premium

eHarmony can hardly be used without a premium membership. You can log in and get the suggestions, but the profile pictures are blurry. Also, you can practically not do anything, not even send any messages. In order to use the site, you have to opt for a membership that is unfortunately quite expensive. We find the long run times particularly bad, which result in a high price. We’ll tell you later if it’s worth it.

Suggestions on eHarmony

The suggestions on eHarmony are very good. This is mainly due to the good algorithm, which is very good. Finding matches for you means that you always find a topic of conversation with the same interests. If you look at the company’s statistics, the numbers speak for themselves. Allegedly 438 eHarmony members get married every day. However, this cannot be verified. How then? But the fact is that you can find a lot of positive statements on the Internet and really a lot of them have fallen in love with the platform.

eHarmony experiences

eHarmony has had a very bad experience on Trustpilot. There, an extremely large number of people complained and advised against registering as it was a scam in their eyes. Over 1400 reviews resulted in “unsatisfactory” and a rating of 1.4. There are different domains from eHarmony. However, all are badly rated. EHarmony Australia got the best rating with a rating of 1.9.

eHarmony alternative

If you are looking for sex, AdultFriendFinder is a great alternative. If you are looking for serious dates, we can also recommend RussianCupid. There you will mainly find Eastern European women, but the selection is very good and the site is serious.
