Reinforce the box IMMEDIATELY
Before you even cut the little circles of tape to open it up, get out some clear packing tape or plain cellophane tape and run it up the outside edges. It's supposed to be held together by a row of little melted spot-welds, but they barely hold at the best of times, are likely to have at least two of the four seams loose right out of the gate, and WILL pop apart at any kind of stress, even just picking it up from the end or brushing a hand against it the wrong way.Don't let that stop from from getting these cards over the official equivalent D&D 5e sets, though - these ones are a little thinner so they fit in a smaller deck binder or box, but feel just as durable, continue long descriptions onto the back of a card instead of giving a page reference when the whole point is to not have to go paging through the Player's Guide to use your spells, and don't stick together in the annoying way the official ones do.They're also significantly less expensive, and if a storage box that's a little less sturdy (though I'd say a nicer design overall) that isn't even going to matter for actually using them is the price to be paid, it's hardly a price at all.Recommended without reservation for yourself or to provide for the players at your game table, only slightly dinged for a gift due to the need to reinforce the box and possible appearance issues if you don't get the additons on there perfectly smooth and even.

Great for fast druid spellbook rotation
Love having a physical deck of cards for my available spells ( I erased a hole in my character sheet from the frequent changes).Pretty graphic on back of cards. A few spells are double sided. Good quality and standard size for card sleeves.

Great condition
The packaging was interesting for presentation.Great quality the minor thing that isn't a near perfect is lack of blank cards to add/custom some spells that aren't included.But oh well, worth it though.

looks good; missing vital information and many spells
The cards themselves are OK quality material. The artwork looks good. The formatting and text are all clear and easy to read. (Though I'm sure some would say the font is too small.)It's unclear if the plastic box packaging the cards came in is intended as permanent storage, or only as display packaging. It is too flimsy and oversized to be good for permanent storage, but it is heavier-duty than I would have expected for just a sales container. The plastic box was damaged in shipping. There is no tuck-box. This means, I have a bunch of loose cards. Fortunately I have deck boxes available, but it would nice if the cards came with usable storage.The spells included appear to all be from the Wizard's System Reference Document (SRD), which means that many spells from the Player's Handbook (PHB) are left out. For example, "Continual Flame", "Divination" and "Revivify" are not included. ("Divination" & "Revivify" are in SRD, but are Cleric spells, not Druid spells.) This is clearly a licensing issue, as this product is from a 3rd party, not from Wizards of the Coast.While missing spells is disappointing, the big problem is that the information on the cards is incomplete (even compared to the SRD, not just PHB). None of the ritual spells indicate that they are ritual. Many of the material components lack certain details. For example, "Greater Restoration" requires (per PHB & SRD) "diamond dust worth at least 100 gp, which the spell consumes", however the card in this deck simply says "diamond dust". Similarly, "Reincarnate" requires "rare oils and unguents worth at least 1,000 gp, which the spell consumes", but only "rare oil, unguent" is listed. Some are a bit better, like "Awaken", which requires "agate worth at least 1,000 gp, which the spell consumes", but is only listed as "agate worth 1,000 gp".I have not double-checked every spell against the PHB or SRD, but in general "ritual" is never listed, and an indication that the material components of the spell are consumed is never listed; often (but not always) material components that have a GP cost do not indicate the required cost.Overall, for $15, it's not worth the hassle to return them, but I would not recommend anyone buy them, given that other better options exist.
