Nature's Mark Mini Zen Garden Kit for Desk with Rake, White Sand, Buddha Figures, Bridge Figure and River Rocks, Black Rectangle Base

I like it and the sand doesn't spill out when using the rake.

Nice to relax and garden. It lasted about 24 hours before the cats got to it 😂

i found that there is plenty of sand. the bag that is intended to hold the sand was struggling. Some of the sand spilled out throughout the box and coated the sand tray in a fine dust. easy enough to wipe away and dumped the sand in the plastic into the tray. the pieces and rocks are super cute just like the picture. its a good size and my rake seemed as sturdy as it could be. i may get a set of rakes and tools eventually, but the rake is good for now. overall, im happy.

I have this in my office and kids and adults use it. Had to get a new one this year because it was so used last year! The kids were like where is the sand box?

I have this mini Zen garden on top of my printer at my desk. I love raking when I have a few minutes to "play". The Buddha is really cute. It is just a fun thing to have around.

I bought this for an anxious friend, she loves it and moreover she uses it all the time. She said it is very relaxing

The sand provided fills the box wonderfully, the rake is the perfect size (very small, but that is what I wanted/expected), and the buddha and bridge knick knacks are heavier than I assumed they would be, making them better overall than my expectations. The only thing I don't like much are the rocks that came with it. I would've been better off picking rocks out of my gravel driveway. I added my own crystals to it and it's got a lovely positive vibe going on in my bedroom now. I suggest this product if you have your own rocks to add.

I will give this three stars and here's why: The thing is cheap. It's much smaller than I anticipated (it's about the size on a small paperback chapter book and about as shallow). The dimensions are listed so that's partly my fault for creating a bigger picture in my mind. It comes in a small box with 4 rocks, a small bag of sand (you get about 1cup worth), a bridge and a statue (both about the size of a sharpie cap), and a plastic rake. Here's my issue and why I left off two starts from the review...it is incredibly cheap. This is $15 and it seems like a good deal compared to the other comparable ones on Amazon, until you open it. The box is cheap plastic, the rake is cheap plastic, the rocks are nice because well..they're rocks, and the figures are nice, but the size and the amount of sand you get isn't (in my opinion) worth $15. Maybe $10...but not $15. I can only imagine the profit margins this seller has. I would guess this set is being sold at 3-4x their cost, at least. However, It is still a sand garden and what I wanted so it will work. I didn't need anything fancy, just something to sit in our living room. My grandfather passed away a few years ago from complications from dementia but before he got sick he was a brilliant lawyer and had an office in a big building downtown when I was little..he had one of these and it's a memory I have so I wanted to get one for that reason. They're really pretty and calming, and it will provide some entertainment for us and our six year old when he's bored.
