A really, really cool concept
I’ve given this product 5 stars because the concept is just really awesome, and the craftsmanship is lovely. There are a few issues that can easily be fixed (examples below) but overall this is really just a wonderful product and would look great in any home.<br />I used the A and B corners and measured exactly the right amount of inches between them (59 for me as I got a L size). And then I went from there, starting with Russia and then moving over to Alaska. I ended with adding all the little islands once the big continents were up - and overall it took me about 2 hours to do alone.<br />The double sided tape is very strong, so make sure you are 100% ready when you press each piece against the wall! It will rip any paint or paper off if you have to fix it. The tape is pretty finicky - you definitely need nails and patience to pick the top layer off!<br />There are a few minor issues - North and South America are connected, not separate as portrayed in the example map with the instructions, Hawaii is not just one island and no mention of any other Pacific islands, and the one island that is called “Caribbean Island” is a bit of a cop out. Otherwise I have no complaints, they are all easily fixable.<br />This would be a great gift for anyone!!
