While I cannot comment on the product itself, I can say that the ordering and delivery process was impeccable. My grandchildren who live in another state were the recipiants and I havent heard if they have started the crystal growing yet. They may be waiting until the next school holidays to have a go. They were very excited to receive a parcel in the mail addressed to them.

Easy to navigate the website Package delivery in a very timely manner, well packed Items seemed to be excellent quality but they won't be truly tested until Christmas as they all gifts The free gift of the yellow, plastic, sticky thing(?) is tacky...suggest you add an item of real value or don't include it at all - detracts from the overall quality...
