Beautiful map to enjoy past travels and anticipate future trips!
by Zoe (5 out of 5 stars)
February 18, 2018

I did not buy this product for itself alone but a chance for my 88 year old father to enjoy the memories of two careers (the Air Force and a small business jet manufacturer) with extensive travel. When I first gave it to him, he related how he and his fellow pilot had made 19 stops to deliver a small business jet from Wichita Kansas to a Japanese client in the 70's. We traveled those miles island by island with stories of eccentric clients, tiny airport refuelings, and numerous colorful cultural and business oddities of international travel while he and I sat at the dining room table in his home in Kansas. His truly amazing long-term memory, charisma, and story-telling skills recreate these experiences for his audience to enjoy. Dad showed me Mom's favorite island (Madeira) but found his favorite, Santorini, too small to plot. The map provided the perfect partner for these memories. It was a beautiful experience that will be repeated over and over again as we enjoy his map together in the years to come.

I was worried after reading reviews, but I think positive changes have been made!
by Pamela Stevens (5 out of 5 stars)

Love this map! I ordered this in August of 2016 and I think there may have been some changes made recently based on other reviews. My map came in a large cardboard tube and was inside a clear plastic package within the tube. No issues with it being too tight or scratching the product when I unpackaged it!

The states are outlined on the gold scratch-off layer of my map and on the layer beneath it so I didn't have issues there. The gold also came off quite easily with a dime/quarter, contrary to other reviewers. My only gripe with the map is that I was hoping for more vibrant colors underneath. I'd give it 4.5 stars for that if I could, but I felt the product still deserved 5 stars more than 4.

I cut the map down a bit so that it would fit on a 24x36 framed cork board, and I'm using pins to mark cities I've been to with my boyfriend. The pictures attached should give an idea about the colors and marking under the scratch-off layer!

Not As Pictured
by Jennifer (1 out of 5 stars)
December 31, 2018

What I received is not the same as what was pictured. It is missing a lot of features/islands, has a different font and general orientation, and did not come with a scratch tool. The new font is juvenile and the scratch lines inconsistent in terms of what is seen and what is revealed below.

Scratched off before arrival
by Austin Levinton (1 out of 5 stars)
January 2, 2019

I don't know what to say. I was very excited to give this map to my traveling girlfriend for our future adventures abroad. However, upon opening the map it revealed that some of the map had been scratched off in the corners! Completely unacceptable. Returning for a full refund ASAP.

Easily ruined
by Ryan (1 out of 5 stars)
January 5, 2019

Purchased this map and it came as described. Looks great. Only issue I had was that as I was scratching off some of the states, my forearm removed a large swath of South America, which I've never been to. One would think only a coin or guitar pick or something similar would be able to remove sections of the map, but apparently a forearm can do the same. I could see if I had a shirt with a zipper or button on it, but it was just my bare forearm. For $30, I would have expected better. This is a great map if you exercise extreme care when scratching off parts you've been to.

Something beautiful to showcase the places I've traveled
by Nikesh Patel (5 out of 5 stars)

Really pleased with this scratch map. When shopping for this product I found many maps to choose from. I chose this one as its colors were quite different to the rest. I'm really glad I opted for this map.

I was impressed with the quality of the map. The big deal for me was this is a proper world map, it's pretty well detailed and has quite a lot of information on the map compared to the others I looked at. There are a lot of cities on the map plus it shows all the US states outline on the top layer and underneath. Extra detail like hill shading makes it quite a grown up map. It is lovely to look at and a real centerpiece.

I found the colors underneath the scratch material worked really well, they are fairly subtle but vibrant enough, which is a great balance. I'd done my homework before I bought this and saw some of these maps had problems when trying to scratch off places. I used a guitar pick which worked really well. When you scratch, my advice would be to start on the border lines first and work your way in. The scratch material on the top scratch's off pretty easy, so on that note take care when taking the map out of the tube. You don't want to accidentally scratch off places you haven't visited yet by being rough with it.

The size of the map is impressive too, making it easy to scratch off even the smallest countries of the world. It's large compared to others out there, and easy to find a frame for a good price. I just need to get around to putting it into the frame!

I've traveled across some parts of Europe and the US and this map will be a great way for me to document the places I've been. People have already started to notice the map in my hallway and it's so much fun talking about memories I've had and people I've met along the way. Now I've scratched most of the places off I've already been it's also making me think about booking trips to all the places I haven't been yet, which is still a lot by the looks of the unscratched bits!

For me with these concept maps it's all about the map itself, which is beautiful. It doesn't need the other gimmicky bits like magnifying glasses and stickers. If you want something that you're proud to keep in your own home and on your wall then this is the scratch map for you.

I'll probably buy this again but this time for a friend. I have buddies that travel so this would be the perfect gift for them.

The price was reasonable as well and it came really quickly, so on all counts really happy with my purchase.

Beautiful, but stuff rubs off just touching it.
by MitchS (1 out of 5 stars)
February 21, 2019

It's a beautiful map, however, the scratch off stuff comes off super easy.

Just touching it with your finger smears it and partially comes off.

This won't be durable to display very long. What a shame. Nice paper, nice details.

gave this as a gift to my mom who I've done a lot of traveling with. Some of the countries were scratched off just as she was removing it from the tube. so disappointing :/

Scratch
by Shahzia Lakhani (2 out of 5 stars)

If you scratch a "destination" a little swiftly, it will rip through the map. Wish the quality was a little better or that it came with a gentle guitar pick of sorts.

Scratch off so faint dont need a quarter beware!!!
by Amazon Customer (1 out of 5 stars)
February 21, 2019

The covering is so faint it comes off simply by brushing against it. Its not at all like a scratch off where u need a quarter to remove it. I tried to get a replacement one because we had ours only a week and hadnt even had chance to hang it. The company said no too bad, so sad. Well Ill be disputing with my credit card company. Its cheap. Cute idea but scratch off is ridiculously flim flam. Dont buy this product.
