Our review compares breakfast cereal on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which breakfast cereal they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 1,185 Australians for their feedback on breakfast cereal they’ve purchased and consumed in the last three months.
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.
