I would like to get one of these. Are there any thoughts on it? Anything better?

They're very convenient and sturdy, with the dice compartment in the bottom and enough room for a double sleeved EDH deck. Only gripe is their lack of an orange one.

The satin tower? It's amazingly good.

Big enough to comfortably fit an EDH deck, double sleeved. Compartment for dice, drugs, etc. Secure lid, strong plastic.

Only problem is that they're about $30 where I live.

10 at my lgs. I've had mine for quite a while now and I still love it. Very sturdy, plenty of room, and the bottom compartment holds plenty of dice. Would recommend for sure

Ive got one. Holds a double sleeved EDH deck and loads of dice. I paid about 10 GBP which is like $15.

Check out this video which will compare the satin tower to 3 other deck boxes.

The satin tower is the only one you can drop and not feel worried about.

I'm going to agree with everyone and say they are the best. I just grabbed 3 more after using one for my double sleeved edh deck, and have no regrets.

I feel like you all got ripped off, I ordered one just earlier today from ChannelFireball for 9 dollars. Apparently they're amazing, hence why I bought one today.

A guy at my LGS left his on the roof of his car drove off, got home noticed it was gone went back to the LGS and was told his box was hit by a car. Then the store owner presented the barely nicked box. Yeah no cons shut up and buy them lol

It's a good deckbox. The complaints I could see about it is the fit is really snug so it can be a hassle to get open for some people. For those of us with kids though this can be a huge blessing.

One other thing I find can be a hassle is I do a lot of walking/biking so typically I'll have my deck in my bag if I use that box and put dice in the bottom they rattle and shake and sound like Im carrying a pharmacy around in my bag. If I opt to not put any dice in the box kind of feels big, even with the dice drawer off, if you're going to school/work then heading to play or vice versa.

I use a different box in those situations so lately the box I got hasn't been used except on days when I decide to drive (rain) or to keep my kids out of my most expensive deck. For that reason alone it was worth the $10 I spent for it, but it does have some minor drawbacks.

LOL at putting your drugs in your dice drawer. classic.

It does take an ICBM to scratch them however.
