Review on Mantello Cigars Ceramic Ashtray Outdoor by David Edwards

I have had this ashtray for two years now. This is a great size and depth for one or more cigars. The planting is of a good size, if a bit too big. I live in the Midwest and left this ashtray on my patio table in all sorts of conditions (snow, rain, frost, heat) for two years. Two years later, it finally falls apart. The pottery on the tray was cracked and crumbled, and some of the other pieces were chipped off. I'm pretty sure it's the freeze/thaw. Overall I'm not terribly disappointed with the purchase as a few years seems reasonable to me for what I've left out in the elements. I'm considering replacing it with a metal or other material ashtray, but I don't mind trying again.
