This is a nice set for someone wanting to give the chop cup a try and isn't sure they want to put
the 50-100 bucks to buy a really nice set yet. You can't be to be picky, as this is a 27 dollar set.
Was delivered on time, and when received was in nice packaging with a paper for instructions if
needed. After using I noticed the ball or the cup was a little weak and the ball had a little
trouble sticking to the cup every time. It has to sit on the bottom just right. Maybe 7 out of 10
times it will stick. I contacted customer service and they were quick with a response. They took the
time out of their day to make a short video to show me how to adjust the magnet in the ball. After
doing so, it made a slight difference.
All in all this wasn't a waste of money by all
means. It's a good beginner chop cup set and now I want to further my chop cup routine/ skills/
knowledge. Give it a go!

This trick is great for close up magic. If you wan't something that is truly impossible then this is
for you. If you want something that requires no practice then this is not for you.
The very
first time I performed it this is what someone said to me after: "That was a good trick until you
produced a lemon from the cup, then it blew my mind!"
The instructions are clear and
concise, enough to get you started, but it would be worth supplimenting that knowledge with other
chop cup/cups and balls material.

This is perfect for my walk around work. It always kills and kids love it.
Quality product with lack of practicality: the magnet is too weak to handle freely.
This is a really nice one cup cups and ball routine. The nice thing about using a chop cup is that
it takes away some of the slight of hand involved. I say some because in order to make a nice
routine, you'll have to use some, but with this cup you'll really be able to sell the effect. Out of
some of the other chop cups out there, this is a really nice looking one (unlike some others). If
you enjoy doing the cups and balls routine then consider picking this one up.
I bought this chop cup and opened it up. Although the instructions are a little bit unclear, the
quality of the product is fantastic. The stitched balls that come with it are very well made. I
suggest this product to anyone who would like to do a good chop cup effect.
