SEABEDEE REVIEW 2022

/

Seabedee is one of the youngest CBD brands in the cannabis space since it was launched in 2018 and is only 3 years old in the CBD arena. Nonetheless, the brand is doing fairly well and seems to have the potential to do well even in the near future. Its decent CBD inventory features capsules, edibles, topicals, tinctures, and pet items. Its mission is to help everyone attain mental and physical peak using premium quality CBD products. Consequently, the brand diligently conducts 3rd party tests in harmony with the quality and control direction to test its product for purity and THC & CBD potencies. Most products passed the CBD potency tests except for the 5 mg dog bark bites, which posted a 15.4% variance limit, higher than the 10% acceptable variable. The best thing is that all the items in the company’s inventory passed THC potency tests, showing that they had no detectable THC. Although some items lacked purity results, those whose results we accessed passed the tests, showing no presence of microbials, residual solvents, heavy metals, and other foreign contaminants. Would you like to explore Seabedee’s CBD products? Please, read this review to know what the company offers.

About the Company

Seabedee was created in 2018 and has its headquarters in San Francisco, California. It was launched by two lifelong partners, Paul Clotar and Pete Stadniuk. According to the website, these two friends witnessed firsthand how CBD helped people they knew and were inspired to build a brand that offers safe CBD products they can turn to and safely partake. Besides, Pete and Paul state on the website that they work tirelessly from sunup to sundown to ensure that their clients have the best quality CBD products they can trust. They strive to stay true to the roots by conducting rigorous 3rd party potency and purity tests.

Seabedee sources its hemp from Colorado farms. The hemp plants in these farms are organically grown, meaning no fertilizers or artificial chemicals are added. Besides, the brand uses 100% organic ingredients to augment the role of CBD in the body. Seabedee deals in broad- and full-spectrum formulated CBD products in the form of capsules, tinctures, pet products, edibles, and topicals. Both formulations guarantee the full entourage effects of CBD, CBG, CBN, terpenes, and flavonoids, but the broad-spectrum formulations do not have less than 0.3% THC present in full-spectrum formulations.

Hemp Quality

Hem quality is a critical parameter in the CBD arena because ensuring usage of premium quality hemp results in high-quality CBD products, and the reverse is true. As such, reputable brands source hemp from reputable farms. Seabedee ticks our boxes for high-quality hemp, which it sources from the Colorado farms. What’s more, these farms practice organic farming practices, eliminating the need to use chemicals, solvents, and pesticides at any stage. The brand uses 100% natural ingredients behind organic hemp to manufacture CBD products.

Buying Experience

We loved our buying experience with the Seabedee website. The page is easily navigable, making the shopping process rather intuitive. On the Shop section of the main menu, a dropdown presents shopping options, including All, capsules, edibles, topicals, tinctures, and pet items. The other option is for skincare which also presents multiple options, including mist, moisturizer, cleanser, and mask. You shop as much as you want and once done, you check out to fill in the billing and physical location details. Besides, there are several bundled deals you could take advantage of or coupons you can apply for to save a few bucks. Seabedee offers free shipping for all orders worth $30 to all destinations, and the 30-day money-back guarantee accepts claims from dissatisfied clients, offering them full refunds when the claims are justified.

Transparency

The Foods and Drug Administration (FDA) controls drugs but not CBD products. Therefore, CBD brands conduct 3rd party tests as part of quality and control regulations that examine them for potency and purity. Seabedee demonstrated transparency by adhering to this rule and conducting the tests. According to the Farm Bill 2018, the total THC concentrations in the CBD products should be equal to or less than 0.3%. Moreover, the CBD variances should be less than the 10% acceptable variance limit, and they should not have external contaminants like heavy metals, mycotoxins, microbials, and residual solvents, and they should pass purity tests. Seabedee conducts all these tests and posts the results on the Lab Results section of the main menu. However, some items did not have purity test results.

Accuracy

To the best of our knowledge, Seabedee has room for improvement when it comes to its purity and potency accuracies. While all products in the inventory had their THC and potency lab results posted, others did not have purity test results. For instance, the lavender bath bomb (100 mg) and the 5 mg dog bark bites did not have contaminants test results for heavy metals, residual solvents, mycotoxins, etc. It is commendable that all the products in the Seabedee CBD inventory passed tests for detectable THC, both for broad- and full-spectrum formulations. Still, the 5 mg dog bark bite posted a 15.4% variance, which is higher than the 10% acceptable limit. Therefore, the brand needs to work on its potency accuracy for it to perform even better in the CBD arena and win an even larger loyal customer base.

Manufacturing Process

Seabedee is a legal US hemp grower that sources its hem from the Colorado farms. The farms in Colorado practice organic farming and do not use pesticide, herbicides, solvents, or chemicals in the entire cycle, lowering the chances of these contaminants finding their way into the final products and into the human system. Once the hemp plant matures, hemp is harvested and taken to manufacturing facilities.

Seabedee CO2 extraction method to strip CBD oil from the hemp surfaces. This method is considered safe in the cannabis space because it leaves no solvent traces in the extracts, as seen in the brand’s contaminant test results showing no solvents detection. Still, the method efficiently removes CBD and other versatile compounds that augment its role in the human system. Seabedee uses the coconut MCT oil in the CBD extract formulation to make the cannabinoids more bioavailable in the body.

The next stage is 3rd party testing. These quality and control steps help confirm the absence of standard contaminants such as heavy metals, residual solvents, mycotoxins, and microbials in the products and ensure the THC and CBD potencies indicated on the labels match the actual contents. Seabedee does these tests and avails results for most products on the Lab Results section of the main menu.

What We Do Not Like About the Company

Although we liked many things about Seabedee, the brand still has a long way to go and has to improve to perform better. The following are kinks associated with the brand and needs ironing;

  • Some products, including the dog bark bites, surpassed the 10% variance limit for CBD
  • Not all products in the company’s inventory have their purity test results posted on the website
  • The FAQ section is shallow and does not cover all the common concerns people have about CBD

Our Verdict

We liked our review of Seabedee. The brand has a decent CBD inventory with capsules, edibles, topicals, and pet items, conducts rigorous 3rd party results, posts the results online, uses organic and non-GMO hemp, and employs the safe CO2 extraction method to mine CBD. Moreover, the $30 free shipping threshold and the 30-day money-back guarantee are a plus. Still, improving its potency accuracy will work to its benefits, probably helping it win clients’ trust and a wider loyal customer base.
