Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

We bought this as an anniversary gift to each other, and it is SO us! We love the slightly dark fun of the little metal invaders carrying off a garden gnome.

The metal sculpture looks like it will hold up well outdoors as long as you keep it dry or somehow drill holes in the bottoms of the mouths so water drains out. The gnome, however, is made of really thin ceramic, and I doubt it will hold up well outside. We put a sand-filled nylon inside to give it weight and will probably just replace it with a tougher, resin version eventually.

All in all, cool metal art that has gotten us tons of compliments and comments and has given us much enjoyment, but get a better gnome than the one that comes with it.

Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

Ordered these as a gift for Mother's Day and she was delighted. Although, upon receipt of the gift there are no instructions to show that the critters are supposed to be carrying away the gnome. My mom originally thought it was two separate gifts. Of course, she liked it even more when I explained how they went together!

Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

I LOVE my Gnomes-Be-Gone lawn art. It's a great size, not overwhelming, but certainly eye-catching in the front yard. I'm somewhat worried about the gnome escaping from it's tormentors and breaking when it tries to leap from their arms (such as the wind aiding and abetting him), but if he lands in the mulch, it should be okay. (maybe I'll weigh him down with some sand and plug up the hole at his feet.

Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

Love these metal guys!! Gave as a Christmas present and instead of wrapping them I placed Christmas Presents in their arms as if they were running away with the gifts! Was a great hit w/ all the guests.. Can't wait to see how great they will be in the garden!

Service & Delivery comments:

Standard Delivery was overnight!! (WOW) However the gnome was not wrapped well and was shattered in the well tattered box. After inquiring on replacement via e-mail, was called by a woman I believe her name was Bobbie?? within 10 minutes of sending the e-mail, I explained the situation and she sent a new gnome immediately out!! What a great way to do business... Can't wait to be a return shopper!!!
