For the price I paid, I am deeply dissatisfied with this cheap looking item and I will not be using this as the gift I had been looking forward to giving. I might have paid $5 or $10 for it….if it had actually come with MATCHES inside the empty match box! Misleading picture.

Despite the mixed reviews I had no issues, the item arrived quickly and looks as described and will make a great gift. Side note: Some of you need to learn how to read, it states in the description that it comes without matches

This is even cuter than pictured.

I was shocked when I gave this to my husband to open and it was an empty box with no matches. The box is adorable, but it killed the moment

Fab Christmas gift for my hubby of 10 years. Thx so much.

The matchbook feels unfinished. The wooded sliding lid is not straight and uneven at the bottom. The image is also not centered on lid. The wood feels cheap and rough considering the box was $48.
