Customer Rating: Summary: Great product! Comment: This set is wonderful. It has many extras that you would not get if you bought each individual season. Definitely recommended!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Great Value!!! Comment: I ordered this for my husband's birthday. This was the best deal I found! Perfect way to collect the entire series. Customer Rating: Summary: This Set Is A Well Made Car, You Have To Take Care Of It Comment: This is the finest DVD series set I have seen so far. The set is very well made and they have gone out of their way to keep it that way. After opening the outer case you'll find a velvet bag around the book the DVD are held in, the whole thing being kept safely in place by inserted pieces of styrofoam to insure safe arrivial to whoever purchases them. Aside from that there is the ribbon for removal and another styrofoam insert placed in the spine of the large book itself to keep it further protected. All the discs in the book are placed in neatly with their labels faced properly and none of mine had any scratches. I give this set and obviously this series itself 10 stars each. That said I want to comment on something in the other reviews.
True alot of people have stated how incredibly nice this set is, yet I keep seeing reviews from alot of others complaining about the set. I obviously really like this set, it is the nicest thing on my shelf and probably will be for quite a while. I think people are complaining because they don't understand what they bought. This set is for people who don't mind taking care of it as long as it's a nice expensive set they can appreciate, which it is.
In referring to issues raised in other reviews I'll address most remarks and discount them right away as being from people who just don't want to shell out for this set and already bought the previous seasons, that's fine guys and I'm sorry but this happens. Aside from those of us who didn't mind shelling out for such a nice set there are also all the people who are fans of the series who haven't bought it yet and this is the best option for them. You guys didn't want to buy a really nice car to take care of and show, you were fine with getting from point A to B with the car's you already had, that's fine but don't discount the set for that.
Aside from those remarks and reviews there are the others of legitimate concern over the packaging not being the best in terms of storing the DVD themselves and various claims that the set will wear too much over time. Well I am the most anal retentitive person I have ever met when it comes to DVD, the slightest dent on a box or scratch on a disc and I will return the set as faulty, if I'm paying upward of forty dollars I want my money's worth. I am here to say bottom line that I hold none of those conerns when it comes to the quality of this set. I was discouraged before I opened mine on Christmas because so many negative reviews had gotten to me but none of the discs were scratched and nothing came dented, torn or anything. Maybe I was just lucky, certainly a few customer's must've recieved faulty sets as happens with anything and I'm sorry for them. However, alot of others seem to be blaming the maker's of the set for something that isn't there fault.
In my set the ribbon never came undone, possibly because I didn't tug away at it rather I eased the book out of the box with complete care. The discs have been in and out repetitively since Christmas and none have scratched in the slightest way, possibly because I am reasonably careful and any lint or dust that is on them as result of transfering from one spot to another I lightly wipe off from inner to outer edge in proper fashion. Also I lightly lift the disc off the inner sleeve pressing the labeled side of it against the outer sleeve until it is slid to the bottom when I set it into it's place. In saying that it's not like it takes ten minutes to remove a disc or that I'm using tweezer's and rubber gloves, I am just taking appropriate care. The book itself I keep outside the storage box because it looks nicer set up on my shelf the way I have it and it makes it easier to get at the discs. The pages that some complain are already wearing at the seems and will worsen over time, mine have not worn and I can say will not excessively over time either, possibly because I carefully turn the pages and hold the heavy side of the book while doing it to keep the weight from straining the pages, this isn't a three ringed folder or five star note book built to withstand any amount of wear and tear but it is well made, serves it's purpose and when handled appropriately should keep until the day I expire.
The set is only going to keep as well as you handle it, if you are rough with it what do you expect, that doesn't mean it is poorly made. Our bodies are well made but if we were always throwing ourselves down flights of stairs we would get some broken bones, or if we slid our fingers over a knife blade they would get cut that doesn't mean our bodies aren't well made. Everything is built to be handled a certain way.
I believe that those complaining were either more unlucky than I with the sets they recieved or more likely most of them aren't so much showing concern for their sets but more over laziness on the part of their care of them. A set like this that cost two hundred dollars isn't supposed to simply serve it's purpose, though that's nice, it's supposed to be high quality. It's like having a nice expensive car, if you keep a cover on it and drive it appropriately and take care when handling it then you won't scratch it and there will be no forseeable damage. That's what you have to do with this set.
The set could have been made a hundred different ways but this is how they made it and personally I can't imagine it looking better than it does at the same time as serving it's purpose. They couldn't have done it the same with the plastic storage containers, and on that note these cardboard sleeves everyone is so mad about are not 'cardboard' sleeves when compared to other sets (like the dreadful Simpsons Season 11 which might as well have been sold between two old pieces of a cardboard pizza box), the pages are indeed made of fine doubled up bonded cardboard but the actual DVD sleeves themselves have a well smoothed back edge specifically to keep discs from scratching. This set is designed so that if you take care there will be no more scratches to your discs resulting over time than there would be in the handling of any other set from laying them on DVD Player Trays or placing them in their plastic holders.
This set is beautiful and made for those of us who want to drive an expensive car and want to take care of it just for the sake of owning such a nice well made car. Anyone who doesn't like taking the time for things like that and would rather have a regular car that takes less time to care for but still gets them from point A to point B should buy the individual sets. There is nothing wrong with that or with buying this one as long as you accept the wear and tear 'you' cause, don't blame it on the maker's of the set just because it isn't perfectly designed for every single person's needs in lowest common denominator fashion. That's like buying a book and being mad at the maker's of the book when you give yourself a paper cut while turning the pages because they aren't printed on Special Ed. class circle paper.
Thanks For Your Time, Just My Opinion. Customer Rating: Summary: Very Neat Presentation.. Comment: The series is very entertaining, but if you're looking to buy the boxed set you're probably already a fan. The presentation of this boxed set is very neat. It comes in a felt box with a book type dvd carrier. It's very solid and heavy. Customer Rating: Summary: Awful Product and Service Comment: No communication from seller and product showed up damaged and missing disks. Worst experience buying on the web.
