Very disappointed. Not good quality
Bought to restart my lino-cutting hobby as I haven't done it in a long while. Chose to get the set rather than buying everything separately, and I really wish I hadn't as the quality is so poor I'm going to have to buy a new roller and new ink anyway.
The roller refuses to roll moment it touches the ink. I've tried rolling the ink in the tray AND on a flat glass surface (as is recommended for linocuts), and it never once picked up an even coating. The ink itself is very thick and feels more like poster paint.
I think the only thing I'll use again out of the whole kit are the carving tools, but the tips are quite blunt so I don't think they'll last long.

Poor quality
I bought this to see if I enjoyed lino cutting. What a waste of money!
The tools are very blunt and the ink is so thick that the brayer won't load. Every single item enclosed within the box really vould not have been of a worse quality.
In my opinion, as a seasoned multi crafter, it is a total waste of my time as well as the not insignificant cost. I travelled +10 miles each way to the store too.

Good product but lacking instructions.
Overall, a good product that delivers what is required but the instructions are sorely lacking when it comes to putting together the cutting tool. It comes in 4 parts with 3 different heads and no advise whatsoever on how to put the parts together. It took a lot of trail and error on my part in finding the right way to attach each head.

Good starter set
Nice pieces of soft cut Lino, good amount of ink. Personally think worth it for the ink and Lino alone. Happy with quality of blades just would like if my other blades fitted into the handle and not just the ones I got with it. Happy with purchase to get back into making prints!

Fine for a starter kit
This was pretty good, although I found the paint went on much better with a brush, leaving the roller free to press the print down.

Easy to use
This Lino printing set is easy to use and is able to let you create amazing designs. The Lino cutter blades were difficult to change at first but once you know how to do it, its easy.

So easy!
This introduction to lino printing is a great product. So easy to use and the results are incredibly satisfying! If you're thinking of having a go - do!

Poor
It doesn’t print well. Ink is blotchy, doesn’t stick to the link well enough, and the roller makes streaks of ink that look messy.
