"It is a well made and robust holder which has many good features such as

1. When the matchbox is inserted in the holder both striking surfaces of the matchbox can still be used and a free run arrangement at each end of the striking surfaces prevents the match from coming up against a sudden stop and breaking off when struck.
2. The holder is made from plastic and has a number of warning messages in red.
3. In ad-hoc tests the holder was found to be easy for adults to open and the risk of opening it upside down are minimal, once the matchbox is inserted correctly as advised on the packaging."
