I bought my Edgmon Pastel box with backpack and tripod 4 years ago. It has been to Scotland, Albuquerque, NM, CT and upstate NY for workshops. I came home jetlagged from one trip and backed my car into it, hit it hard enough to destroy the backpack, but the box has only a small scratch and not a single pastel was broken. It is easy to set up, has a small footprint so works well for travel. Susan and her staff are very helpful with orders and it is also nice to buy something made in the USA. Great box which will serve you well for years.
