Sushi in a snap.5
I bought this kit because my wife and I are addicted to Sushi, but the cost was killing us. To aleaviate the financial strain we decided to learn to make Sushi ourselves. This kit has it all; An easy to read how to booklet, bamboo rolling mat, dipping dishes, rice molds for sashimi and four sets of reusable chop sticks. All of this together in a very nice storage box package. As for solving our sushi desire it has. Although making sushi is a time consuming ordeal at first, once you get the hang of it you will want to throw sushi parties for all your friends. The hardest part of making sushi would be perfecting the sticky rice and locating all the ingredients at your local supermarket, but as far as cost goes you will spend a fraction of what it costs to purchase ready made sushi in a resteraunt or market.

oiishi! tremendous deal!5
Dare I refer to myself as a sushi connoisseur, I have had my fill of great sushi from all over Japan, Hawaii, California, and the east coast... You can imagine the inversely proportional satisfaction that has had on my wallet! When looking for a gift for my girlfriend, I decided to search for a sushi kit, as I figured this would be a win-win situation for me (she loves sushi, and now she'll make it for me!). Going through reviews on Amazon and other sites, I found this kit to include all the hardware you need and a simple, elegant instructional guide... I was excited to receive the kit in the mail.. I mean give it to my gf!

anyways, having made sushi many times before, i was a bit skeptical of the quality of the materials and the low price point... however, when my gf opened the package, i was amazed to see the quality of the bamboo mat, the beautiful chopsticks, shoyu (soy sauce) dishes, and even a nigiri press! the guide was perfect for a newbie to sushi making, but it even provided me, the sushi master himself, some tips on making great inside out rolls (wait, sushi rolls aren't authentic japanese, but they're good!)!

mmmMMMmm... that's all i have to say about this kit, or as japanese say, oishiii! this kit is perfect to fuel your sushi addiction, and is an absolutely amazing bargain!

Amazing Value4
I purchased the Sushi Deluxe Book & Kit as a gift and ended up keeping it for myself. The book is small but informative which is why I rated it a 4 instead of 5. The really amazing value is the kit. The chopsticks and accompanying dishes are very good quality. It also comes with a bamboo mat for making sushi rolls. Based upon quality and price I would recommend this item to anyone who is a novice at sushi making.
