You get what you pay for

I have added two videos to this review including video 1 of 2 unpacking and video 2 of 2 after instrument repair. Other reviewers were correct with ratings stating the instruments were shabby and rusty. They were definitely dollar store tools, except out of the box they were completely unusable.

Worthy product for a beginner

I am new to bonsai and bought this product. First of all I would like to say that overall I like the product and my needs as a beginner have been met. I'll post what I think are quick pros and cons to see if I can help future buyers/growers make a choice. Overall I would recommend this product as for the price it is perfect for those new to growing bonsai. Pros: - The low price allows a beginner to have all the necessary tools without spending a lot of money. Book 101 is, in my opinion, the…
