5.0 out of 5 stars Bonsai is very nice. The care they gave it - impressive also., December 17, 2008

By	Amazon Fan! - See all my reviews

First off, the bonsai looks pretty darn close to the photo - and when you consider they "train" more than one that's a welcome outcome. But considering I ordered through an Amazon partner I wasn't concerned. I've always been satisfied - even if minor adjustments are needed.

BonsaiBoy packaging was awesome! I was curious how it would arrive - particularly since it's a living thing and this is late December.

The bonsai is carefully wrapped at the base (pot) so the soil does not move at all. But it unwraps quickly - use a circular motion in the opposite direction of the packing. You'll see.

Packing peanuts surround the bonsai so the box can take the expected transit handling. Lifting the bonsai out of the box the peanuts fall away and the tree is unharmed. Easy.

A surprise was the chemical heat pack also included. I ordered for Christmas and live on the west coast so it had to travel quite a ways during very cold weather. Very impressed they took the time to add that little extra insurance. The pack didn't last the entire trip of course but it did ease the transition from where it was raised to the travel conditions via UPS.

Those of you that have them know bonsai are sensitive so, now that it has arrived, it's over to me to help it recover from the stress of the trip. Well, again to my surprise, the care sheet provided includes instructions for cold weather transition. This is not the little tag you get on some bonsai. This is a two-page well written sheet - broken down by categories. Again, impressive.

Particularly given the Amazon price and the BonsaiBoy workmanship this is definitely a worthwhile purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars Well packaged, but significantly different from description, February 17, 2009

By	Walter E. Anderson "wandrson" (Austin, Texas USA) - See all my reviews

The tree was very well packaged and arrived undamaged. Only a few leaves fell off during shipment. The tree is roughly 60% of the size indicated in the item description and the shape is not as well defined as shown. All that said it doesn't appear to be a bad value.
