MyGift Desktop Zen Garden Kit with Buddha Statue, Incense Burner, Sand, Rake and Lotus Tea Light Candle Holder

This is so beautiful! It was easy and fun to put together with my mom! It creates so much ambiance that I have used for meditation.The only issue I had was that the bag of sand had a hole in it and went everywhere.*I do not trust stick incense, the ashesWould fall into the sand and make it dirty. So what I highly RECOMMEND is putting a little melted wax that’s cooled off enough to mold into the incense cup and then place your incense cones on top of the wax. It’s less messy and you dont have to worry about any fire problems. I had to make it this way with cones. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to focus on my yoga or meditation. Just look up “Cone incense” and try a variety pack. Just remember to put half melted wax in the bottom and just mold it down until about a 1/2 inch from the top so it’s less conspicuous. Other stuff; Don’t put sand in the incense burner. You are going to need that sand it just barely coated the thing. Aside from my own preference about incense cones, it ended up so perfect. Came in time, safetly boxed up.4.5 stars!

Very nice centerpiece to create focus and create ambiance, and compact enough to use as a nice incense burner! I am honestly very happy with this piece! It arrived quick, thanks to Amazon Prime, and arrived in good condition. There was a few small pieces chipped off of the back of the Buddha statue head, but I'm not going to let that ruin it for me. It arrived snug in a styrofoam insert to keep the Lotus tea light holders, incense pot, and Buddha statue safe during shipping.This set comes with the wooden tray, a small bit of white silica sand (though, you may want more, as there is barely enough to cover the tray floor and fill the ash pot), a small bag of polished pebbles, sand rake, Lotus burners, ash pot, Buddha statue, and (to my pleasant surprise) three small, trial-size sticks of incense! Note, I did not list the tea light candles in with this - they are NOT included, as the title would suggest. Luckily, I can pick up 16 tea lights at the local dollar store, so no problems there.Overall, you can tell a lot of attention to detail went into the casting of the metalworks, and I am very pleased with this purchase! If you need that certain something to complete your meditation space, or just need a nice centerpiece, I'd really recommend this! Nothing like a nice, calming piece to help set the tone for meditation to calm your mind, cleanse your spirit, and relax your body!

I am new to meditation. I wanted something that was pleasing to the eye...lol no pun intended. You know you know. I also wanted something that had candles. I do recommend using cone incense instead of the sticks. I am very happy with this product. Great if your just being your meditation journey. It is also a great gift for a loved one. I highly recommend. Its beautiful! Not to big and not to small. Fit perfectly for my space.

Received exactly what was shown. It came in a nice sturdy box with Styrofoam to keep it safe, and other than there being a TINY hole in one of the bags of sand (which it was packaged so that it wouldn't make a mess even if they tore open), my only complaints were I wanted a bit more sand, and the rake it comes with is put together at a terrible angle, where you can't use it.

I’m very pleased with this set. It’s enough weight to be sturdy and not move around but not too heavy as to be cumbersome to move. The color is good with an antiqued finish. The lighter is in the picture for size comparison. It’s a really nice starter set. The incenses smell good; not too strong and burn for quite a while. All in all, buy it. You’ll like it.

We are currently caring for my elderly Grandmother which takes my husband away from his shrine at home. I bought him this as a sort of "shrine away from home" and was very nervous as I am not Buddhist. In 25 years I have NEVER surprised him and he has NEVER genuinely loved something the way he does this. There is nothing cheesy about this, it is very lovely and even comes with a couple of sticks of incense which I did not know. When he meditates at this Shrine he has such a look of peace that I can't help but be happy for him. If you are looking for a mini shrine or even just a beautiful Zen item for a desk, I wholeheartedly recommend this. It was also a full 2 days early.

I really enjoy this Zen garden. It came very well packaged and not chips or dings. The lotus, pot, and buddha are all a cast plastic but the plastic has weight to it and of good quality. Only complaint is the wood on the rake is very brittle. So far its a great set!

Very nice tray an pieces that come with it. Comes with plenty of sand, a few rocks and 3 little incense that smell pretty good. Oh and the little rack. Would definitely buy again.
