Which should you pick?

If you want the plain answer: Hims & Hers, unless one of the differences above matters to you personally.

The verdict

We would tell a friend to start with Hims & Hers and move if it disappointed them. That is not a strong claim about either company; it is what the arithmetic supports when nothing else is pulling you.
