Love it! I have photos and product weight info.
I just received the spice box as a gift, so I have not yet used any of the spices, but I wanted to share a bit of info and some photos to help you make your decision. The box weighs 1 lb and 10 ounces including the box and the spices. The box alone weighs 6.3 ounces, and the actual combined produce weighs 1 lb and 5.5 ounces.
The bags of spices are organized. Each bag has a sticker on it with the name of the spice (no weight). A couple of the stickers came off my bags, but there is a chart on the inside of the box lid showing where each spice is, and the name, so it's easy to figure out what each spice is as long as you keep them in order.
As soon as I opened the box I could smell the spices (there was a little loose spice sediment in the box). They smell lovely and the quantities are good for beginners (enough to really try the spice in various dishes, but not so much that the spice will go bad before I have a chance to use it). When I run out, I will know exactly what to buy to replace it. I have little experience using indian spices, so for me, the box is a great introduction to a wide variety (30 items) without having to go out and buy spices at random or wait until I have a recipe, for which I would then have to go shopping for individual spices. I am very excited to try the spices.They appear to be fresh and lovely. I have provided photos to give you a better idea of the quantities. I hope it helps.
