Perfect fun piece for shelf decor

Added as a nice addition to our shelf (our home decor has a little gaming theme including old school board games, chess pieces etc). Nostalgic but not overwhelming. Ideal for placing on top of books for decoration, on a shelf or as a centerpiece.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • style 90

Not the color I expected

I was a bit disappointed when I opened the box because although the product is great the color is not completely black or dark brown, there are areas where it is what the color looks like The material has come loose and is showing a lighter color. I bought this piece thinking it would be all black.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Some little things

Smaller than expected but does what it's supposed to do! hahaha

It is a decorative element. Can't complain too much. I just didn't pay enough attention to the dimensions compared to the space I was planning to use it in. I thought I figured it out but it was too small for the space I wanted to put it in. I found another place for him and he fits here.

Pros
  • understandable even for the old
Cons
  • difficult to say

Not the color I expected

I was a bit disappointed when I opened the box because although the product is great the color is not completely black or dark brown, there are areas in which it appears that the paint of the material has peeled off and is showing a lighter color. I bought this piece thinking it would be all black.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Speed

Didn't fit as bookends

Absolutely not suitable for bookends. Several people answered "yes" in the Q&A and recommended it as such in reviews. Maybe if you only have two small books you want to support, but not for a shelf full of books. I tried using them to decorate a shelf and it didn't work. Even though they are cast iron, they just slipped off. They aren't heavy enough to carry a stack of books.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Poor instructions
