Excellent in many ways.

Great for its intended use. I always carried a deck of cards in my BOB/EDC bags. A few years ago, after being stuck in deep axle mud on the Uncompahgre Plateau with nothing to do but read every piece of paper from the owner's manual to the chewing gum, I vowed to always have a deck of solitaire cards handy. . I also have a bag of dice to play Yahtzee alongside other games just in case. I've had the same deck in my edc bag ever since. During this time the box was pretty worn out. Recently kids (ages 10 and 12) asked me to use some cards and I gave them my check instead of buying it. I was looking for a good replacement. That's it. Better than my old backup deck and easier to pack. Unsurpassed durability. The size is perfect for those who value space. Easier to shuffle than a standard deck. They are ideal in a cramped truck cab or similarly confined spaces. They are easier for small hands to handle. (I think the kids will see this and ask for this deck too) As with most things, I carried a spare deck just in case. I will most likely be buying at least 2 more, one for the SWMBO car emergency bag and one for the game closet. I would suggest doing an UNO deck if possible.
