Loose fitting lids, NOT AIRTIGHT
 
Review Date: August 16, 2010
Reviewer: J. Cullen, Boston, MA
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R11QXVXKVTVREZ This review is only for the paint cups, not the brushes. I have had these paint cups for several months. You get a lot of paint cups for your money, but the lids don't fit will on the cups. Each cup has top and bottom lid. The bottom lid is the spill proof part while the top lid provides a supposedly air tight seal. These cups are poorly manufactured; the fit of the lids was hit or miss or the 10 cups. Some bottom and top lids fit very snugly, but many were too loose (see my video review). All the lids were paint tight, but most were not water tight, and few were air tight.

For example, my 2 year old dropped a paint cup from about a 10 inch height and the entire lid popped off and paint went every where. So much for spill proof.

Also, after a few weeks the paint (we use Crayola washable tempera paint) became quite thick because the top lids are not air tight.


Pros:
- you get a lot of paint cups for your money

Cons:
- top lids don't fit tightly which means the paint dries out
- poor quality control; some bottom lids are very tight others are rather loose
- not spill proof; bottom lids pop off too easily if cup is knocked over


UPDATE: I purchased the Melissa and Doug paint cups. They are pricier, but solve all the problems I have with these cups. See my video review on the Melissa and Doug paint cup product page. I compare the Melissa and Doug and Chenille Kraft cups side by side.

These are bigger than I thought they'd be, but overall a great paint set. Keeps spills at a minimum. The brushes are also very nice, but again bigger than I anticipated. A nice beginner set for a youngster.
Nice set

I was looking for paintbrushes and no-spill paint pots separately and then I stumbled upon these. I showed them to my sister and she replaced the ones she had. They have a great funnel top so that the paint brush goes right into the pot and access paint comes off as the brush comes out again.
The lids don't stay on very well

But other than that they are good. I like that there are enough paint brushes for the cups and they all match.
too many cups

realized that kids will never use more than 3-4 cups at a time. brushes are too thick and take a lot of paint.
