583795
Received this today and was very upset!!! It was in a big box, and the watch was laying in there in a clear slip over it...the watch was torn apart!!! THE BACK OF IT WAS LAYING IN THE BOX AND SO THE PLASTIC PIECE THAT GOES INSIDE WAS IN BOX! Thankfully it was simple to pop back together and it works but oh my!!! It should have been in a better cushioned box of the RIGHT SIZE! And the lil straps that you slip the band through to hold strap down, one has already come off!!! Every cheap made!!! ALso in my on the Tower mine says the word DUNKIN... In pic here it shows a few initials...Anywho cute watch but poor packaging and quality

I was very happy initially to find this item.  It sounded like it would be a great item to have and keep, so I rationalized the high price for the item.

When I opened the package (surprised that they used such poor quality packaging to protect something like this) it was just a cheap, low grade magazine cover.  It was, of course, crimped and damaged because of the poor packaging and mediocre quality of the cover and pages.

As Christians I feel like we have a responsibility to strive for excellence, especially if we are producing such a sacred item (the Bible....).  If this would have been a third the cost, then I would have rationalized the cheap magazine quality of the item, but it wasnt.  This item is very overpriced.  I actually would have paid a third more than I did for a quality item.

This is a real shame too, as the images and layout are good.  It is also a shame that just the regular turning of the pages leaves more "dent" and "crimps" in the cover and pages. so there is no real use in being able to put this out on the coffee table or to keep it as an item to be proud of or be able to reference in the future.

Whoever on staff there, that made the obvious poor decision to create such a poor quality item, when it shows that a ton of work went into the copy and images, should really rethink future decisions like this.

Item exactly as described.  Not the fanciest or highest quality, but certainly adequate quality.  Nothing wrong with the item.  Packaging, however, left a great deal to be desired.  It was shipped in the flimsy retail shelf box (very thin card stock, not cardboard, etc) with labels stuck on it.  The package was totally destroyed just by handling, as I would expect with such a flimsy box.  As a result, I would buy the product again, but not from the seller.

The packaging was flimsy. It arrived torn open and the usual paperwork was missing.

The product is cheaply constructed compared to how these types of cushions used to be made, but about as good as can be found anywhere today (and believe me, I looked hard).  However, what was worse was the packaging.  It came in a large box that was so poorly taped that one side was completely open upon arrival.  Considering that it was packed along with another item, a book, it was a miracle that both items arrived at all.  Its senseless to try to save a penny on tape with so much at stake.

The three stars are for the quality of the product.  If I was reviewing the packaging, it would be one star.

This isn't worth the money.  Very little oil in this tiny package.  Comes with the cheapest ever short dust cover, an oil bottle, a nozzle, a cheap as hell tiny plastic magnifying glass (which did work, I must say), three screw drivers, and that round, red-topped thing is a needle holder (which is the only cool thing in the kit).  It states that it comes with a phillips head screwdriver--mine were ALL flat head.  Screwdrivers were tiny, cheap, and useless, since most sewing machines come with waaaaay better ones (even cheap machines).  Oil container was tiny and LEAKED.

The rest of this review regards the packaging and product condition, which is not reflected in the rating (or it would be worse).  The inner foil seal was intact, eve when I squeezed it.  It leaked so bad that it even went through the cheap flimsy little bag that hold the oil, and soaked into the cardboard.  The needle case had a fingerprint on it--almost looked like it was in glue.  There was hair on it.  This pack looked used. The blister pack that held the items was not snapped or sealed, it was stapled.  Perhaps it comes from the factory this way.  I doubt it.  I think part of the problem was the horrible packaging from either Singer or the seller, mixed with Amazon's poor shipping packaging.  The contents must have become under pressure during shipping, and because it was not in a firm, well-packed box, the oil ended up somehow leaking out of the bottle or through the bottle's seal.  The seal itself was firmly glued to the top of the bottle, and firm but gentle squeezing by me did not produce any drips, so it wasn't a defective seal.  It was poor packaging, both by the seller and by Amazon.

Even if the packaging had been perfect, I'd only give this a three star, at best.  It's unimaginably cheap products, and I'm pretty sure you'll find it's not worth the price.  Just buy yourself a big bottle of oil for $4, and skip this $7-8 package of useless items.

Cheap. Poor packaging, not in English. Wish that I never ordered these.

Why even include the plastic packaging?  This was scratched beyond words, so much that you can barely see!  Not to mention the rubber base that is supposed to be attached at 3 points was only attached by one (leaving the others damaged beyond repair).  Beware on this buy from this user, the quality is ridiculously low.

The product looks great but the quality is very cheap.  I purchased 4 units.  3 of them came warped, 1 of the 3 was cracked at the seam.  The packaging is poor.  1 unit was dinged.

I was disappointed in the quality of the packaging of this product.  In looking at the product online and description provided, I thought it to be a small, light wooden box.  Instead, it was cardboard which took away from the quaint "vegetable box" look and feel of the product.  It also had two permanent prices printed on the cardboard - which could not be removed.  Since it was a Christmas gift having the prices on it was "tacky" and again detracted from the quality of the product.

The packaging is deceiving, what is inside is a cheap
end product, may be worth $ 5 only. Parts don't fit as
required, the quality is missing. I returned the 2 orders.

Item shipped so tightly rolled that it arrived very wrinkled. Also the quality is mediocre at best -- it looks okay from a distance, but it's clearly a poorly blown-up image.

Cheap, flimsy cutters that arrived in poor packaging. All four were bent beyond use, one completely broken. Extremely high shipping & handling, slow shipping. Save your money.

Opened the mail package, which was fine, to find a crushed box which was just thin cardboard and cheap bubble wrap.

The gray lightbulb area at the endwas hanging off, and it was plit through the middle. Very cheap plastic.

0/10 last thing I would use in an emergency
