YouTube channel

Hilsenteger and Jack McCann created the unboxing YouTube channel Unbox Therapy in December 2010. Hilsenteger decided to create the channel after discovering he enjoyed watching unboxing videos. Unbox Therapy allows viewers to experience the pleasure of opening the newest technological items and not having to spend money on purchasing those items. Two items he unboxed were a breathalyzer that integrated with a smartphone and an “unspillable cup” that he tried to push down. Unbox Therapy uploads several videos per week. The channel’s videos routinely get a million views each. The average view of his videos is around 3.7 million as of March 2020. The channel’s total number of views has exceeded one billion. Hilsenteger runs another YouTube channel called Lew Later. In May 2019, Unbox Therapy and Lew Later had 19.3 million subscribers combined.

Unbox Therapy’s video titled “The ULTIMATE $30,000 Gaming PC Setup” features a computer setup resembling an airline cockpit, with four monitors, a foot massager, a recliner, expensive headphones, an adjustable weighted mouse, and a SteelSeries keyboard. The Outline‘s Andrew Paul wrote that the seven-minute video contained “a dizzying flurry of quick cuts” that has become common among “those who create content for the attention-fried”. Paul concluded, “Maybe it’s the snack crate stocked with Kettle Chips and Christie Collection’s Pirate Cookies, or Hilsenteger’s shilling of special edition Unbox Therapy Coke-a-Cola [sic] bottles, but on the whole, the thirty-grand rig seems like a little much.”
