My issue with it is the fitted sheet. It is supposed to fit a standard crib mattress. Well I don't know what size they used to measure with but it in no way stays on the bed. It looks sloppy because it is so loose and just about comes off from just looking at it, let alone having my son sleep on it. I just make his bed using a fitted white sheet with the rest of the bedding, which looks fine, but you are paying to have a complete set and it was a dissapointment. Something to keep in mind....

Rating: 3 / 5 Good:

Is bright enough to shine through Bristol and one or two pages of guidelines

Is sturdy enough to put up with reasonable wear and tear

Is light and small enough to be used as part of a portable project kit.

Bad:

Case has a built in tilt that forces you to use it landscape or awkwardly prop the short end up to enable portrait orientation

Case is made out of a brittle plastic that raises concerns for transport – do not drop or squish it!

Jones Sun, 07 Nov 2010 20:50:41 +0000 http://www.quiltsforkids.com/quilts-for-kids/light-tracer-light-box-10x12/#comment-224 Great product. Does as it's advertised. The lighting is pretty bright, good enough for even use of tracing photos from cameras, newspapers, magazines and more. <br /> <br />Only things I may want to note about it is that it wouldn't be good for 'destructive' kids. A good couple drops and it would be in pierces, not to say that is's built weak.. it just doesn't seem as if it could take too much punishment. <br /> <br />The only down side to MY shipment is that it was missing a rubber foot. This wasn't a big deal being as I had tons lying around and could of got one for 25 cents from the local hobby shop. Rating: 4 / 5 Great product. Does as it’s advertised.

We use these in all of our Manga and Anime workshops. The box provides a nice even lit area (no "hot spots") and a slight tilt to the drawing surface to make it more like a drafting table and easier to see what you are doing. The built-in pencil slot is handy for holding a few frequently-used pencils or pens. The lightweight plastic body and small size make it about as portable as you can expect a lightbox to be. It could use a carrying handle, though!

Creek Sun, 07 Nov 2010 00:12:05 +0000 http://www.quiltsforkids.com/quilts-for-kids/quilting-time/#comment-215 This is a matching game. The "host" of the game, the granny looks a little creepy and makes weird sounds. I got this game so I could get ideas for real quilts, and it has helped a little. It I hadn't had a coupon, i would not have purchased it. If you are looking for entertainment, i would suggest another game. Rating: 3 / 5 This is a matching game.

The colors are not distinct enough to distinguish which pieces go where. Having put many puzzles together before this, this one has been the hardest ever. You can sit for an hour and only find a few pieces. Yes,it is that difficult. It is a large puzzle so be prepared to have a large working area occupied for a good length of time. The pieces do fit well together but do not fit as you might expect. The shapes are very different. If you want a challenge then this is the puzzle for you.
