My son enjoyed this, great product.

You get quite a lot of things in this set, which is nice if you're starting out in modelling. The quality does vary between the various items though. The best and most solid-feeling items are the blue-handled ball styli. They are a good weight and do feel like they will last. The wooden handled ball styli are for smaller holes and whilst not as solid, they are still good. Further down, we get the silicone tools, which are adequate but wouldn't take rough usage - push too hard and they will pop out or at least deform. The black plastic stuff seems a bit of "filler". There are two more ball styli, and the rest is just poking tools, with a bit of texture on the sides. They don't feel great, and feel more like toys. There really wasn't any need for these. Then we get to the wooden "knife" and other cutters. Not sure why they made them from wood, other than hitting the environmentally-friendly mark, because these will just wear out, won't clean well, and just generally a waste of space. The knife doesn't have a sharp blade so you are just squashing the clay apart. Same for the other bits - there is no precision work to be done. You'd be better off with what you'd get for free off the counter at the fish and chip shop. I bought a set for the kids a few years ago and the plastic/melamine cutter that came with that is still going strong and far superior to this wooden stuff. Seems like they've got some decent tools, then want to give it shelf appeal with the "more is more" approach, filling the set with Christmas cracker tat, where they could have put a couple of other decent metal tools (there is no small flat carving tool in here) and left out the wooden and black plastic stuff. Lastly, the bag is decent, if a little tight. You won't get much more in there if you add to your collection, though I'll probably end up throwing away some of this eventually.

Lots of tools for the money. I shouldn't ever need any more

good clay tools. Easy to use and store and good quality.

I am a beginner and this set has all the tools I "would" need at the moment, I did not use all of them, but the ones I used worked very well. I also like that it comes with a bag

Super handy and very easy to use

Very handy tools. Came with a nice case. Arrived well packaged and in very good time.
