The product I'm reviewing, the 3-in-1 kit, is a button maker kit consisting of a very solid metal press, a set of dies and adapters that allow the press to handle three different sizes. You also get a set of consumables in two different styles: metal backs (the kind everyone wants) and plastic backs (which are kind of embarrassingly cheesy, and which I can't see many people wanting to use for buttons they actually sell or distribute). I found the quality of the press to be high, but the included instructions to be confusing. I eventually got the hang of it after ruining a few buttons with wrong alignment; basically, the trick is that the die rotates about 15 degrees between the first and second steps, so you have to take that into account when placing the pin back and front so everything lines up correctly. Once you get into a rhythm, it does crimp reasonably securely, although the edges feel ever so slightly less professional than some button makers I've used previously; I think this might come down to the consumables, though, as the plastic film provided feels a bit cheesy. When I resupply, I'll probably buy different pin backs and covers from another vendor. You also get an absolutely bizarre \"book\" called Mr. Panda Welcome to Panda's World, with random coloring book style drawings of a panda in different outfits and situations interspersed with completely blank pages. I'm frankly struggling to understand why it's here at all - maybe you're supposed to cut out some of the pictures and make buttons out of it? In any case, it wasn't hard to recycle it, but if leaving it out could have reduced the price by a few cents, that would have been better. Finally, there are a lot of small parts here, and once you've opened up the box, geting it all stored again is going to be a challenge. I suggest getting a fliptop plastic bucket or some other storage method to keep everything together in your craft room. All in all, this is a pretty high quality, sturdy button p
